Chapter 146 Fortune Permit
Sickness comes like a mountain, and illness goes like a thread! But Yun Hao still participated in the funeral ceremony of the Dou family, and the old man still had to send it after this last journey. It's like this once in a lifetime, even if it's climbing, you have to climb it.
The Dou Clan's Zigong moved slowly, and everyone followed behind. The people on the side of the road all knelt on the ground, and the royal majesty was vividly displayed at this moment.
The general atmosphere of the team was mournful, but there were also elements of disharmony. At least in Yun Hao's opinion, Li Yuan's concubines were very gloating. Among the representatives are Yin Defei and Zhang Jieyu. The era that belonged to that old woman is finally over, and the current harem sisters are the bosses.
Li Yuan seems to have come out of grief, the so-called very sad. Yun Hao seemed to be grieving for ten minutes. Maybe that's why there are too many wives, and his heart is going to be used to rule this huge country, not to remember a woman who has died. Being able to grieve for ten minutes is already precious.
Obviously, Li Jiancheng inherited Li Yuan's excellent genes. Both father and son belong to the right animals, and everything in the world is meaningless in their eyes. In addition to rights, or rights! With the right comes everything. Including family and friendship, as well as love.
Li Er was still crying, and the tears in the corners of his eyes were faintly red. The eye could no longer see, and it was so swollen that only a slit remained. Yun Hao was afraid that if he continued to cry like this, there would be a blind King Qin in Datang. He followed behind Zigong like that, with Li Chengqian, Li Ke, and Li Tai!
The tiny Li Chengqian held his two younger brothers, and the six-year-old dolls held two four-year-old dolls. It was very difficult to walk, but I still persevered. The little faces were red with exhaustion, and in the distance several of their cousins were in the carriage, laughing loudly.
"Big brother, Qingque is tired." Li Tai is the youngest, and such a long road is a punishment for him.
"Take your brother's hand, and your brother will drag you." Six-year-old Li Chengqian had no more options, and his stern father forbade anyone to help them.
"Why can Brother Chengdao get into the carriage?" threw a green fruit from afar, and almost hit Li Ke. Li Ke pointed to Li Chengdao on the carriage and asked his brother Li Chengqian aggrievedly.
"They are the children of the uncle's family, and we are the children of the father." Li Chengqian was very helpless, so he could only tell his younger brothers what his mother said to him.
As the three brothers were talking, Li Tai felt light. A person picked himself up, and the man like the black iron tower was majestic, carrying Li Tai on his shoulders. Li Tai didn't like Wei Chigong at all, his beard was too prickly. But today he likes to sit on Wei Chigong's shoulder, and Li Ke next to him is sitting on Qin Qiong.
Li Chengqian swallowed his saliva, and reluctantly continued to follow the team with his short legs. He was tired, very tired. But he was the eldest son, and the treatment enjoyed by his younger brothers did not fall on him. Father can acquiesce to his subordinates carrying Li Ke and Li Tai, but he will never allow anyone to help Li Chengqian.
The eldest grandson followed behind Zheng Guanyin, his face very pale. It is in stark contrast to Zheng Guanyin and Yang, who are ruddy-faced. For a month of continuous wakes, she counted the most shifts. When Li Yuan saw it, he just said "um" with his nose, and said nothing else. Zheng Guanyin was surrounded by a group of noble ladies, and the highest grade next to the eldest grandson was Yun Hao's mother, and the second highest was Zhang Miaoke.
Yun Hao was watching from the side, and he saw everyone's expressions and demeanors, as well as their hearts. Suddenly, he felt as if something was missing, and after stepping around for a long time, he suddenly saw Li Yuanji getting off Zhang Jieyu's frame, blushing like a monkey's buttocks.
When he looked at Li Yuan, the jade on his hat shone in the sun.
With the Dou family's Zigong entering the underground palace, the funeral that had tormented the Tang Empire for more than a month was officially over. The filial sons and grandsons who wore linen and filial piety got into the carriage and returned to their mansions. It's time to sleep, it's time to play with women, and it's time to play with women.
Li Yuan's identity changed very quickly, and as soon as he returned to Chang'an, he put on the yellow overalls and summoned Wen Daya and Yun Hao. The sad husband was gone, and it was His Majesty the Tang Emperor who appeared in front of Yun Hao.
"I heard that the academy has developed a new type of gunpowder?" This is Li Yuan's biggest concern, with a god-level weapon like gunpowder. His ambitions can be unleashed to the maximum, and not only the Turks will be subjugated. Even the traditionally unruly Koreans will prostrate themselves at their feet.
"The new gunpowder is still unstable for the time being, and after a period of research, it should be able to replace the existing gunpowder, and the power will be much greater than the current gunpowder." Yun Hao's little respect for Li Yuan seemed to be imprisoned in the underground palace along with the Dou family. Now he is facing the Tang Emperor. It's just a big boss who is rich and noble!
The mentality changes, and the speech has a more businesslike flavor. I used to have water in my brain, and I had a friendship with this kind of power animal. I didn't talk about moving my head, and I am afraid that the grave of my ancestors is already full of smoke.
"More powerful than gunpowder now?" Li Yuan didn't care about Yun Hao's tone, what he cared about was that the power of gunpowder became greater. For him, gunpowder was as powerful as a woman's breasts, and the bigger the better.
"One or two times is still to be expected!" Yun Hao bowed and replied. Wen Daya is completely a mallet in this regard, and can only listen to the audience on the spot.
"Good! Hahaha! All right! Li Yuan excitedly circled around the bookcase.
"Step up research and development as soon as possible, Datang needs such a good thing." Li Yuan's face flushed with excitement, and he instructed Yun Hao and Wen Daya after turning around in the N circle.
"Your Majesty! The academy is now very expensive, and it is no longer possible to support it by relying only on the ministers and His Majesty's inner government. If you want to speed up the research, I'm afraid Your Majesty will have to allocate money from the Ministry of Households. This research, to put it bluntly, is a pile of money. If there is no gold and silver sea to fill it in, there will definitely be no research results. "Since the business is official, Yun Hao plans not to produce a copper again.
"How much does it take?" Hearing Yun Hao say that he had no money, the smile on Li Yuan's face immediately disappeared.
In previous years, the situation was good, but Li Yuan had some rich money in his hands. But this year, Guanzhong suffered a disaster, and rats could starve to death in the treasury. Li Yuan also planned to stretch out his hand to Yun Hao, but he didn't expect Yun Hao to strike first.
Yun Hao glanced at Wen Daya, who was Li Yuan's confidant. This kind of thing has to be said by him!
"Your Majesty! It is true that the academy is very expensive because there are many experiments to be done. So the consumption is larger, but the students are not allowed to do experiments. I can't get anything good, and the money allocated by the internal government is indeed a drop in the bucket. If it weren't for Yun Hou's support, the academy would have been unable to make ends meet. "Wen Daya is now tied to Yun Hao in a carriage, and it is also good for him for the academy to ask for more money. Who still thinks that there is too much money, and the money of the treasury is not spent in vain.
"Uh......! This one......! Li Yuan groaned, he really had no money. If you give it to Yun Hao, you have to give it to others. I have so many wives to support, and if I give less money, I will make trouble with myself. The soldiers will never dare to be in arrears, and these muddy people really have no money, so they dare to rob them. The civil officials also dare not give less money, and if they give these scholars less copper, they will be able to scold themselves as a sieve in the history books.
"Your Majesty! The minister knew that the national strength was difficult, and the minister thought that it would be better for the academy to make some industry by itself to make money. Look ......! Yun Hao knew that Li Yuan had no money, since he didn't give money, it was okay to give the policy, and Lao Tzu would earn it himself.
"Oh, you kid has always boasted that Tao Zhu Gong is alive. Let's talk about how to make money. The treasury is very tight! Hearing that Yun Hao had a way to make money, Li Yuan's eyes lit up suddenly.
"Yang Wengan's mansion in Chang'an is very large, accounting for almost half of Yong'an Fang, if His Majesty handed over this place to the academy to operate. The proceeds from the output can be used to subsidize the research funds of the college. The minister does not need a big son in the inner government, and he can research qualified high-power gunpowder within half a year. And the yield, at least three times as much as it is now. ”
Is that true? How do you make money in Yang Mansion? Li Yuan's eyes were fixed on Yun Hao, as if he wanted to see the flowers on Yun Hao's face.
"Push the house back and rebuild! Then sell it! Yun Hao's answer was concise and to the point.
“……!” Li Yuan looked at Yun Hao like a fool, according to Yun Hao's tossing method. It is estimated that during the Chinese New Year, it would be good for Yun Hao to wear a pair of pants.
"The minister hasn't finished talking yet, this can only solve part of the college's expenses. Another piece is that the minister wants to shepherd sheep in Hebei. The academy is experimenting with wool weaving, and if it becomes a Tang Dynasty, it will have one more thing to keep out the cold. ”
Li Yuan groaned for a moment, there were no people in Hebei anymore. It's a huge Hebei, and only a few hundred thousand people are hanging out there. There is so much land that no one grows, let alone raising sheep. Now there are tigers everywhere in the mountains, and businessmen who walk in the wild will be taken away one or two if they don't get it right.
Even more terrible than tigers are bandits, and some people say that there are as many bandits in Hebei as there are good people in Hebei. All kinds of bandits are active in the mountains and hills, and the more daring officers and soldiers dare to rob them.
The boy said shepherd, hoping that his sheep would not be robbed. For Hebei, Li Yuan has seriously lost confidence. I am afraid that it will take more than ten years for the withered population to recover.
"Exactly! If there is anything else to say, I will be able to do it. As long as you kid can get enough gunpowder to supply the army, let alone raise sheep. Even if it's a retired tiger, I'm okay. "The temptation of the new gunpowder is too great for Li Yuan, as long as Yun Hao puts forward conditions, he is ready to do it.
"There is nothing else, as long as Your Majesty approves these two items. The minister will start immediately, at the latest by this time next year. Sixteen guards should be equipped in small batches, and after two years, sixteen guards will be able to become established equipment. Five years later, the 16 guards could all be equipped with firearms. This is the minister's promise! "Since Li Yuan is happy, Yun Hao is also happy. Without hesitation, he made a military order.
