Chapter 497: Small Moves, Sharp Weapons Begin to Begin

After the surprise and reminiscence, Wang Xuance also began to arrange the group's trip to Annan.

For this group of second generations from Chang'an, Wang Xuance did not dare to slack off, or the entire Annan did not dare to slack off.

The reason is very simple, behind this group of people are the top magnates on both sides of the civil and military sides above the court.

Annan's affairs also did not affect Chang'an, and Wang Xuance was surprised that Shu An didn't know, but the reaction of this disciple had several guesses in his mind.

"Master, the price of rice in Chang'an is one point lower."

Laifu's voice sounded beside Shu An, and there were a lot of sighs in his words, as if he was lamenting that it was not easy for the people.

One point may not make much difference for some of them, but for some of them, there is a big difference.

It may determine how much money they have left over in the end of the year, and whether they can eat more meat.

"This is also a normal thing, others don't know Li Shimin's abacus, how can I not know."

Shu An said quietly, don't look at the eyes of many people in Chang'an who were stunned by the huge amount of money, but this emperor was secretly making some small moves.

If you are more careful, you will find that there are several rice shops in Chang'an.

The prices of these rice shops are a few points lower than those rice merchants in Chang'an, and the price reduction is not gradually decreasing every day.

It can be said that this makes people unknowingly tricked, and Shu An is sure that Li Shimin definitely does not only do such things in Chang'an.

You have to know that compared to Annan's money, this food is the big deal, because food is sustainable.

But if the money is used up, it will be used up, and if you want to accumulate so much, you don't know how long it will be.

But on the whole, it is still a good thing for ordinary people, at least it will not be like before.

Laifu on the side smiled bitterly and was speechless, because he didn't dare to judge that His Majesty.

And the lord really dares to say it, but the lord in the world is not afraid of this majesty.

"I just don't know when those families will find out."

Shu An thought silently, behind those rice merchants are some families, of course, in addition to the family, there are also some ministers in the court.

But obviously the position is not at the top level, otherwise it will definitely not be so stupid.

Similar to the eldest grandson Wuji, he has already abandoned the industry of selling grain, anyway, the eldest grandson's family is mainly above iron smelting.

There is nothing for the eldest grandson Wuji, and the interests of cane sugar can completely fill this gap.

Shu An didn't want to see Changsun Wuji because of the previous reasons about Wuji, but to be honest, Changsun Wuji's character can undoubtedly live a better life.

Only interests come first, on this point, the eldest grandson Wuji is very pure, of course, this important minister in history is not without a blind time.

What short-term interests don't represent much, of course, for now, Changsun Wuji is still good.

Just as Shu An's thoughts were wandering, a hurried footstep came, and it was a guard.

"Master, someone made a bed crossbow."

The guard's voice spoke with a hint of joy, it had been a few months since Shu An gave the drawings, and now there was finally some progress.

"Have you made a bed crossbow, go see it."

Shu An was slightly stunned and then said loudly, he still saw this group of carpenters in his eyes.

Basically, he was busy testing bed crossbows from morning till night, even if he asked the guards to give them a holiday.

Although there were no results before, Shu An had no intention of bothering them.

After all, if you change to him, I am afraid that I will not be able to do it in a few years, after all, there are some things that also need talent and opportunities.

I didn't expect it to give him a big surprise now, but Shu An didn't hesitate after thinking of this.

........

The site where the carpenter made the bed crossbow was no longer the vacant land it used to be, but a new place was built not far from the academy.

Of course, the distance is also cleverly chosen so that the noise does not affect the students.

In less than a few steps, Shu An's figure came to this venue, with a curious look on his face.

The reason is simple, this time it doesn't seem to be what he imagined.

At first, he thought that it was the same Rumu again, but it wasn't, and Lumu was now hanging his head to the side.

On the contrary, the focus of everyone's onlookers was on another middle-aged man, Shu An vaguely remembered that this person was called Wu San.

"The master is here."

"Vacate a spot."

.....

Shu An's arrival also made these carpenters see it, and they couldn't help but get up in a hurry.

These carpenters are not the little whites when they first came, and they know that this master is the world-famous An Xuangong.

Among them, they have also seen a lot of the lives of some farmers in the farm, and many of them have even secretly made up their minds to follow this old man's side.

Even if it is to set up a household in the farm, it is a pity that it is not so easy, and I can only sigh why I didn't meet An Xuangong in the first place.

Now, in order to inspire these carpenters, Shu An has made a lot of promises.

Whether it was money or the allocation of houses to settle in, it was enough to make these carpenters happy.

It's a pity that this matter is destined to be only a few people, because there are not many vacant houses.

At least these carpenters don't think everyone can have this qualification.

Naturally, they worked harder, but unfortunately these carpenters were destined to not represent Shu An's thoughts.

Shu An came to the vicinity of the bed crossbow and saw at a glance that it was similar to the shape of the design he had given.

"How's the power?!"

Shu An said softly, he naturally didn't expect this start to reach the power he expected.

"Master, compared to the previous crossbow machine, the power is about thirty percent more."

Wu San said respectfully beside Shu An, obviously having prepared before.

"Yes, you deserve the reward, if you have a wife and children, then you can bring Chang'an."

Shu An said with a hint of gentleness on his face, obviously not minding to appreciate the carpenter in front of him.

No matter what method he uses, as long as he does it, he should be rewarded, and then it is also appropriate to have an example.

When the demonstration was over, Shu An's people also left, and the current bed crossbow was not powerful enough.

There is still room for improvement, and it is enough to complete the tasks of the next stage.

With Shu An's departure, Wu San also became the focus of carpenters.

The original reward and Shu An's promise made these carpenters look envious on their faces.

Lu Mu, who was one step ahead before, was completely marginalized, and it can be said that feng shui takes turns.
