Living Leisurely in Tang Dynasty - Chapter 171

It was already a cold February day. His Majesty Li Er asked someone to call Changsun Wuji and talk to them about Li Yuanying’s plan to build a port.

Originally, the few people who saw the confidence in the hands of His Majesty Li Er jumped in the hands of the grandson Wuji. They felt that Li Yuanying’s servant had written some disgusting flattering letter, but when they looked at it, they felt that it would be better to watch Li Yuanying flatter!

Fang Xuanling first said: “Even if the people of King Teng bring back some goods in Korea, it is not enough to build a new seaport.” Then he briefly told His Majesty Li Er about the cost of building the port, and said that spring ploughing is imminent. , Can’t condone Li Yuanying to be so nonsense. You must know that Henan Province is an important food base, and you can’t let Li Yuanying delay spring ploughing for big moves!

His Majesty Li Er said: “It’s really not enough, but Yuan Ying said it won’t affect spring plowing, so it doesn’t hurt to let him try.”

The reason why His Majesty Li Er agreed is that Li Yuanying exaggerated and said that it is good to build a large sea port and set up a tax customs to control maritime trade. This harbour must be big, magnificent, and show great style!

First, on Henan Road, pick a good place and try it out. If there is no problem, such places as Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fuguang, Yazhou, and Annan Duhu will also be repaired to form a maritime trade chain and provide port supporting services. Let everyone rest assured and boldly go by sea.

Li Yuanying called this project the “Pearl of the Orient” project.

According to Li Yuanying, their Datang is at the sunrise in the east, and most of their coasts are on the east side of the entire continent. He wants to build these harbours into bright oriental pearls, so that they can continuously send data to Datang. Endless materials and wealth.

In order to protect these seaports, they have to train powerful navy officers to patrol and train at sea every day, so that everyone who enters the seaport can feel the strength and bravery of Datang!

This blueprint is so beautiful that His Majesty Li Er couldn’t bear to give up, so he wanted Li Yuanying to try it. Anyway, Li Yuanying vowed to say that there will be no loss in the establishment of the port, and he does not even need a copper plate from the court!

Fang Xuanling glanced at each other, knowing that Li Er’s idea had been decided, so they stopped persuading him, and Li Er wrote a reply to Li Yuanying: The port can be built, there is no money anyway, spring ploughing cannot be delayed, and it is earned. The money must be turned over to the court.

Wei Zheng’s face twitched.

No wonder Li Yuanying can pull out some theory of “leading people to goodness”. It turned out to be a family study. His Majesty Li Er’s words were so shameless that even Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji did not stop him from being used to Li Yuanying’s mischief!

Although the court did not give people or money, His Majesty Li Er agreed to let Li Chunfeng take a trip to help Li Yuanying choose a time and pick a good day for the port to start construction. In this way, Li Yuanying’s requirements were all met!

As for Li Yuanying’s exaggeration about Dai Ting’s sky-flowers, His Majesty Li Er ignored it.

Dai Ting has the ability and ideas, but he is not suitable to put it on the bright side. For one thing, he is a domestic servant, and he is not born in the court. Secondly, what he does is not something he can do with integrity. It’s not easy to play well.

His Majesty Li Er asked someone to send the reply to Li Yuanying, and by the way, Li Chunfeng was also packed.

The old genius doctor Sun Simiao was also going to Tengzhou this time. Sun Simiao didn’t like to deal with the imperial court, and refused to enter the Taiyuan Hospital for many times. He stayed in Chang’an for a long time to repair “A Thousand Gold Prescriptions”.

In the beginning of the spring of this year, Sun Simiao has dedicated “A Thousand Gold Prescriptions” to the imperial court, allowing the Taiyuan Hospital to review, proofread and publish it in the world. This is something Li Yuanying promised him. After the book was repaired, Sun Simiao didn’t want to stay in Chang’an anymore. He simply went to Henan Province with Li Chunfeng to help Li Yuanying open a medical school.

Although His Majesty Li Er was reluctant to let the genius doctor leave, he also knew that a forced stay would not leave people behind. He could only let them go after he personally summoned Sun Simiao.

By mid-February, everything had recovered. Vegetables and fruits were abundant, birds and beasts were fattened, and the edible breath of the growth of the mountains under the mountains and the swimming in the water of the sky all revealed an edible breath. Fengtai Building, which was already booming in business, made a big move. Dozens of branches opened at the same time, and at the same time a brand new cuisine was launched: stir-fry!

During this time, the chefs of each semicolon were busy practicing cooking methods. After getting started, they quickly ravaged the seasonal ingredients back and forth, and developed local characteristics in accordance with local conditions.

Li Yuanying said at the beginning that they would be allowed to go home to take charge of a Fengtai Building alone. They thought that Li Yuanying was coaxing them to work hard, but now it has really come true!

This makes them motivated!

Compared to going out to fight alone, the big tree near Fengtai Building is much more comfortable, and they can share the profits and earn more. Moreover, with Li Yuanying, no one comes to trouble them, they can devote themselves to developing new dishes and improving their cooking skills. Anyone with a brain will see that their future will get better and better!

Therefore, everyone is holding back their energy and waiting for the day when their semicolon opens.

Put it in the hot oil and stir-fry in a hurry. Although the dishes are not as good as cooked and stewed, they are worse than fast, better than fragrant, and better than nowhere else!

The semicolon of Fengtai Building was opened at the same time, and cooking really caused a craze everywhere. New things just came out, and everyone was very curious. Besides, Fengtai Building rarely disappointed people. Naturally, the diners flocked to them. Appreciate the fragrant stir-fried dishes.

Perhaps because of the low prices and more people who can afford it, egg fried rice has become the most popular new dish!

This craze for fried rice with eggs has spread all the way from Chang’an to Tengzhou, and then spread to various places by businessmen and tourists. Soon, anyone who sees Fengtailou wants to go in and order a plate of early adopters!

Wei Zheng and others usually don’t eat out, so it’s a bit later to learn about the stir-frying trend, but the younger generation in the family learns the news first.

As soon as Wei Zheng heard about this, his brows were frowned, and he was very dissatisfied that Li Yuanying did such a thing at every turn. Others are making big money in silence, but he is good, making money and making a lot of money, everyone is discussing!

Within a few days, many people have heard more news: it turns out that this dish can only be made easily with a special wok!

Now the question is, Fengtai Lou opened so many semicolons at once, and the stir-fries produced every day can be enjoyed by so many diners. How many iron pots did Li Yuanying ask people to build? !

The most important thing is, where does the iron come from? Could it be that he discovered iron ore in Taiyuan last year and used it by himself?

Wei Zheng couldn’t sit back and watch Li Yuanying make such a big mistake. He immediately went to Taiyuan to conduct a thorough investigation. By the way, he ran through Li Yuanying’s various industries to see if there were any unreported mineral deposits. Li Yuanying loves to play and noisy, but iron ore must not be touched!

As a result, when Wei Zheng checked, he found His Majesty Li Er, and traced the conspiracy of the two brothers to make a pot!

These two brothers are really shameless!

The only one in the past!

Wei Zheng was so angry that he sat in the council chamber and didn’t swear. He just sat there and looked at His Majesty Li Er, as if looking at a guilty man, strangely infiltrating.

His Majesty Li Er saw the Dongchuang incident and had to push all the pots on Li Yuanying’s head. He sighed and said that he had no money for Li Yuanying, and he could not give him special treatment on the size of the fief. Others found that the iron ore was offered up and could be compensated. Let Li Yuanying give out his industry, right?

Li Chengqian also helped persuade him, saying that his uncle also wanted a little iron, not much, just a few pots, a lot? Not much at all, if it weren’t for the opening of Fengtai Building’s semicolon, no one would have noticed it!

Wei Zhengzhen wanted to tell the old man to return home.

Let them get used to love, let them get used to it, and see how they end up when things get used to it!

…

When Li Chunfeng and Sun Simiao arrived in Tengzhou, Tengzhou Academy was almost completed.

March is a good time for spring to bloom. Li Chunfeng looked at the busy spring plowing scene along the way and felt that the scenery was very good. He and Sun Simiao had just arrived outside the city, and Li Yuanying had already greeted them from a distance, and enthusiastically led them into the city, saying, “Master Sun, Xiao Li, I was waiting for you to come! It just so happens that the college is almost completed and can start. Enrollment, Master Sun, you will see if the medical school is big enough, and if it is not enough, I will ask someone to expand it!”

Sun Simiao said: “If you want to cultivate a good doctor, the students are more expensive and less expensive.” There are too many students. First, there are too many people to teach, and they cannot be taught in accordance with their aptitude. Second, it is difficult to judge their behavior. Improper students, who knows whether they use medical skills to save or harm people?

Li Yuanying nodded her head straight when she heard that, instead of taking Sun Simiao to the palace, she took him to the medical school and asked Sun Simiao to see if there was any room for improvement.

Sun Simiao was more direct. After seeing it, he said that he would not leave and he wanted to live at the medical school. The place is spacious, bright, and clean. There is a large garden in the back, planted with various medicinal materials rich in Henan Province, which has been carefully taken care of by special medicine children. The back mountain is connected to the back, and the upper part is lush and green. It is obvious that there are many wild trees and weeds, and some wild medicinal materials may be found.

Sun Simiao is getting older and likes this semi-rural-style residence very much. Li Yuanying has also found everything he wants to study. What troubles does he have? As for going to the city to make a name for himself, to a banquet to show off his prestige, Sun Simiao has no interest at all!

Seeing that Sun Simiao was satisfied with his arrangement, Li Yuanying happily led Li Chunfeng away.

During this period of time, Dai Ting had replaced all the good things he had brought back from Goryeo with cash, everything was ready, just waiting for the end of the busiest spring ploughing to begin Li Yuanying’s grand “Pearl of the Orient” project.

Li Chunfeng was only sent by His Majesty Li Er to choose the day, and he didn’t know what kind of awesome Li Yuanying and Li Er’s majesty played. Hearing that Li Yuanying said that he would build a large seaport along the coast of Datang, and let the winding coast string the “Pearls of the Orient”, Li Chunfeng couldn’t help calculating how much it would cost.

Li Chunfeng said, “Do you open so many Fengtai Building sub-columns to build this harbor?”

Li Yuanying said: “No, I have already figured out how to use the money earned by Fengtai Building.” Now that Li Chunfeng mentioned Fengtai Building, Li Yuanying told Li Chunfeng about his other grand plan: He wants to build a project. The spacious and easy-to-walk road from Mount Tai to Chang’an provides the most and best animal power to the stations along the way. In this way, if his emperor wants to go to Mount Tai for a few times, he will go to Mount Tai for a few times, and it will not waste the people and money at all!

Li Chunfeng understood why His Majesty Li Er so indulged Li Yuanying.

Li Chunfeng said: “Then where are you going to find money to build the harbor?”

Li Yuanying sells Guanzi: “You will know soon.”

Seeing that Li Yuanying didn’t say anything, Li Chunfeng stopped asking more questions, and settled in Tengzhou with peace of mind.

The manpower is not yet in place. Li Yuanying only asks people to prepare the materials and money for the expansion of the Great Harbour, and he is not in a hurry to let Li Chunfeng start construction.

Li Yuanying devoted himself to the preparation of Tengzhou Academy. The people recommended by Xiao Deyan to him are successively in place, but it is not enough to meet the requirements of his big college. Even if he has not recruited students yet, he has to get enough teachers!

Li Yuanying has already issued a recruitment order, allowing people to freely recommend talents from all over the world. Self-recommendation can be done by him. Even if it is from a neighboring state, he can help him to do things like the past as long as he is willing to come over!

Li Yuanying’s salary was very generous, and many people came to apply after the year. Li Yuanying asked Wu Mei and the others to take turns in picking people, but she really picked many suitable people. These people don’t need to be highly talented, as long as they are well-educated and have no problem with their character, it is enough to stay as a master.

Li Yuanying also sent people to preach to various states and counties in Henan Province, and brought some children from poor families who lost their fathers and mothers to the college. Although these people can get some relief, they don’t need to think about studying. Now a lot of dormitories have been built in the academy. Although the conditions are not particularly good, they can also keep out the wind and rain. Although the meals provided by the academy are not particularly rich, they will not make any students hungry.

Li Yuanying allowed them to study in Tengzhou without having to settle down in Tengzhou. If they have any future prospects, they can still afford the money from the academy for food and drink. They can use the remaining money to feed the academy; if they can’t afford it, they don’t have to pay back. Now, think of a way to feed yourself!

Education is not a business, and Li Yuanying never thought of making academy money from the beginning. He can afford to raise a college!

With the completion of the academy, the number of people flocking to Tengzhou from various states and counties in Henan Province has also increased. In the days to come, Li Yuanying would occasionally meet with a group of appointed master candidates, have a long conversation with them, clarify the academy’s educational philosophy, and resolutely not let her be dragged down.

Just after seeing a group of people, Li Yuanying saw Gao Yang rushing towards him. She smiled and told him that they had found an interesting talent. Even Lu Zhaolin said that he was agile and wrote very well in poems. Gao Yang said: “I listened to the poem he wrote when he was seven, and it was really catchy, even I can remember it!”

Li Yuanying felt very strange: “Then you can recite it to me.”

Gao Yang felt that Li Yuanying was suspicious of herself and was upset. She is also a person who loves reading and poetry now!

Gao Yang snorted: “Let’s look down on people, I’ll remember it once I hear it!” She memorized the “Ying Goose” that she had just written down to Li Yuanying on the spot.

When Li Yuanying heard “Goose, Goose, Goose”, she felt that Gao Yang was messing around. When she heard “White hair floating in green water, anthurium clearing waves”, she felt that this person is indeed very aura. If she really wrote when she was seven years old, then It is indeed a talent! Li Yuanying asked: “He wrote this poem when he was seven years old. How old is he now?”

Gao Yang said: “How do I know how old he is! But he doesn’t seem to be much older than us, he should be 14 or 15 years old.”

Li Yuanying nodded. He was busy with his business today and was bored in the palace. He simply wandered with Gao Yang to the academy to meet Wei Shu and the others, preparing to meet the young genius who is said to be able to write poems at the age of seven.

The author has something to say:

Little Prince: I’m the best at drawing big pie with bragging rights!
