People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 458 Industrial Problems
Tonight's night is very dark, dark clouds cover the night sky of Chang'an, and it is raining lightly at night. In an inn, Xin Xin sits in a room looking at the figure outside the room, and also listens to what the other party says.

"My master has already discussed with Li Zheng, Duke of Jingyang County, that the food will be delivered outside Chang'an City tomorrow, and everything will follow the old rules."

Sitting in the dark room, Xin Xin stared at the figure holding the oil lamp outside the door, and at this moment wanted to rush to open the door to see who the other party was.

"Don't try to open the door, you will die if you open the door."

Xin Xin took back her steps and said in a low voice, "Master can actually buy the grain in Li Zheng's hands."

The other party said in a low voice: "The master is naturally powerful, as long as you help the master to do things well, you will be given the status of a good family."

Yixin doesn't care about her status, but cares more about who bought her.

The other party slipped a letter through the crack of the door and said in a low voice, "This is from the master. You just need to follow the contents of the letter."

Outside the door where the figure left, Xinxin breathed the air in the room, and took a while to pick up the letter.

Now Chang'an is very strict, and the court has already become vigilant.

Of course, Xinxin knows that what she is doing is a brain-dead business.

The next day, it was just dawn.

Xinxin was walking on Zhuque Avenue in Chang'an, and saw a notice posted at the entrance of Dali Temple.

Smuggling weapons is a felony, and Dali Temple wrote a large notice, saying nothing more than that there will be heavy rewards for those who check weapons.

Xu Jingzong stared at Xinxin from the other side of the street while eating a piece of cake.

After Xin Xin left the gate of Dali Temple, Xu Jingzong also lowered his head and ate his cake.

He is not afraid to walk into Dali Temple, he doesn't know anything now.

Even if I went to Dali Temple, I couldn't find anything.

Xin Xin still came to the outside of Chang'an City, and saw the people delivering food coming.

He got on his horse and followed the team silently.

This time is the second time to deliver things out of customs.

The people are not much different from the previous ones.

It looked like the previous batch of people, and none of them had changed.

The caravan headed towards Longyou.

These people will not stop when transporting things except for necessary rest and sleep.

Basically can not speak, very silent.

I also tried to talk to these people, no matter how much I asked them, I didn't answer myself.

If they hadn't passed the pass, they would have had a few conversations with the defenders, and I really suspected that these people were fools.

The letter I sent last night is in my arms.

Once again, he was sure that the person who could do these transactions must be a big shot, and even the grain in the hands of Li Zheng, the Duke of Jingyang County, could be bought.

Who is Li Zheng?

The youngest county prince in the history of Datang.

At the age of 12, he became the magistrate of Jingyang, and at the age of 13, he was already a county marquis.

Now he has become a county prince.

Moreover, Li Zheng has a weird temper and doesn't know how to get in touch with ordinary people.

It is said that none of the dignitaries in the DPRK and China could see Li Zheng.

Li Zheng is young, although he is not an extremely personable official, but the speed of this increase in rank and rank is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

After walking for a few days to the border of Longyou, it went smoothly all the way to the outside of the pass, and as usual, I was happy to pass on words to people on both sides.

Translate Guanzhong dialect into Tubo dialect, and translate Tubo dialect into Guanzhong dialect, and inform both parties.

Pay with one hand and deliver with the other hand, very smooth.

Satisfied to ride the horse and follow these Tubo people all the way into the territory of Tubo.

Looking at the letter in his hand, it was something his master asked him to do.

It contains a step-by-step plan to gain the trust of Lu Dongzan or Songtsen Gampo through meritorious service, and find out how much surplus there is in the Tubo treasury today.

It took half a month to reach the camp of Tubo.

It's still the same. After arriving here, the Tubo people didn't treat me very much.

Went back and forth twice, and Xin was used to this kind of thing.

Jingyang
At this moment, Li Zheng's wedding is still four months away.

The number of times Li Lizhi was able to come to Jingyang became less and less.

The guards in the palace are getting stricter and stricter.

Li Lizhi complained, while eating candied haws, the little tiger's teeth were biting fiercely.

"This food is delicious, how do you make it?" Li Lizhi asked curiously.

"This thing is called candied haws, and the recipe is very simple, just wrap the hawthorn in syrup and it's ready."

Li Lizhi nodded, it was indeed very simple.

It felt like I asked an insignificant sentence.

Seeing Li Zheng writing and drawing on a map, Li Lizhi asked again: "What are you doing?"

"I'm counting mines."

"mineral?"

"That's right, the iron mines in Guanzhong are not inexhaustible. These are family assets and cannot be used indiscriminately."

Li Lizhi nodded and said: "This princess knows it. It is said that Emperor Yang of Sui was going to fight with his army at that time. He wanted to build iron weapons to fight and hollowed out several mountains."

The ancient mining method is simple, and the utilization rate is very low.

In fact, as long as the technology of iron and steel smelting is improved, the characteristics of steel can be brought into full play.

Moreover, ironware is thrown away after use and waits for rust, and it is a waste not to be reused.

The secondary utilization of steel requires the use of steelmaking furnaces, which are very difficult to make.

Hard to do with today's technology.

But I don't want to miss this thing.

After Yu Chigong brought those soldiers, he could register them with Jingyang household registration.

It has an area of ​​300 mu and a population of [-].

New mission: increase the population to [-].

Task reward: three stages of the library.

The three stages of the library should have more important technologies for later generations.

There are many valuable books in the second phase of the library.

But there are not many books related to industry.

Li Zheng said: "His Royal Highness, did General Yu Chigong tell His Majesty about giving me the soldiers? Almost a month has passed and there is still no news."

Li Lizhi turned her head stubbornly while eating candied haws, "You, Li Zheng, are also anxious about such trivial things?"

"Of course I'm in a hurry." Li Zheng drank his tea and almost said that he still had thousands of tons of iron ore that he had nowhere to use.

Li Lizhi ate candied haws and said, "Then why aren't you anxious about our marriage?"

"This can't be rushed."

Li Lizhi stared at Li Zheng's expression and said, "You regret it and don't want to marry me anymore. Besides, I'm not young now."

Li Zheng glanced at Li Lizhi's chest and smiled disdainfully, "It's still so small."

"you!"

Li Lizhi wanted to pick up candied haws and throw them at Li Zheng, but felt that it would be a waste to throw such a delicious thing as candied haws to Li Zheng.

Bite hard into a mouthful of candied haws, Li Lizhi seemed to give in, she lowered her head and said, "There are countless iron mines in Guanzhong, and indeed, as you said, they are not inexhaustible. If they are over-mined, one day those mountains will To hollow out."

"Your Highness, do you think your father won't agree to give me those soldiers?"
