CHAPTER XLV

Empress Eldest Sun still hopes that Wei Hao can have a way to make money, but now Wei Hao doesn't believe them at all, and wants to tell Li Shimin in person, and Li Shimin still doesn't believe that Wei Hao has such a ability, Empress Eldest Sun still hopes to help Li Shimin.

"It's difficult, my daughter said it this afternoon, I also know my father's difficulties, and I hope to be able to share some of them, but he doesn't believe it, and my daughter can't help it, but it's okay, I'll think of a way, this kid, now he doesn't believe me, he has to clean him up." Li Lizhi said and gritted her teeth,

When Empress Changsun saw her like this, she also laughed, and then looked at Li Lizhi and said: "You have to hurry up on this matter, let him think of a way, it is still considered internal, and when the time comes, transfer money from the internal treasury to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and your father will also occupy the initiative." ”

"Yes!" Li Lizhi nodded.

And in Wei Hao's house, Wei Hao was also there to persuade Wei Furong.

"Okay, isn't it 1,500 acres of land? It's not a big deal, let's just buy land then! Wei Hao persuaded Wei Furong.

"You are a loser, 1,500 acres of land, and nothing? 1,500 acres of land, worth almost tens of thousands of dollars, they are simply bullying people like this, no, son, you still have to go to His Majesty, talk to him, how can you give us such land, and when those lands are raised, it is estimated that it will not work in three or five years, and we will have to invest huge costs to go down, this matter, you must say. "Wei Furong is unwilling to think about it, his family has suffered such a big loss.

"Oh, what's there to say, since you can raise those lands, then slowly take the time and experience to transform them, what's the big deal about this, it's okay, don't be angry, what is the land, think about your son and me, now I'm an earl." Wei Hao still continued to appease Wei Furong there,

Wei Furong glared at him fiercely, knowing in his heart that he would definitely not be able to count on him in this matter, and now this dumb person is losing, and his family can only eat it.

"Dad, come to eat, don't starve yourself." Wei Hao said and brought the meal to Wei Furong, but Wei Furong was still angry and couldn't eat it.

"Dad, I'll take a look tomorrow, it will definitely be useful." Wei Hao looked at Wei Furong and continued.

"What can it be for? When I knew about the land, you weren't even born, you didn't go to the farmer at all, do you still know the land? Wei Furong shouted angrily at Wei Hao, Wei Hao was very depressed, this old man, if he is unhappy, he knows that he is angry with himself, what does this have to do with himself.

"Okay, Dad, eat, otherwise, I'll go to the palace tomorrow to make a fuss?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Furong and said helplessly.

"That's not possible, it can't be done, son, you can't go to the palace to make trouble, if Your Majesty knows, it will definitely be unpleasant, and then your earl will be in trouble." When Wei Furong heard this, he was frightened, and hurriedly persuaded Wei Hao to say.

"Okay, eat." Wei Hao continued to say to Wei Furong,

When Wei Furong heard that Wei Hao agreed, he was also a lot relieved, but thinking about those lands, Wei Furong was still a little unhappy.

Early the next morning, Wei Hao took Steward Wang and Steward Liu to the land where he was rewarded, and Wei Hao also wanted to know what the land he rewarded was like?

The rewarded land is really not far from Chang'an City, less than three miles away, out of the West Gate, you can see the bare mountain, such a good location, I have not been rewarded to others before, and now I have actually rewarded myself, which is indeed a bit of a bully.

"Childe, you see, this large area is bare, and below, although it can be reclaimed into farmland, but according to the previous reward from His Majesty, those farmlands are all reclaimed, but our land, you see, how can there be fields? And I also inquired about the small one, why this place has not been reclaimed, because there is always no good food, and the yield is very low! Steward Liu said to Wei Hao.

"Yes." Wei Hao also climbed up the mountain at this moment, and found that the mountain was not rocky, like dirt, but why didn't this soil grow grass? Wei Hao felt strange! So he said to Steward Liu beside him? "Go find a hoe, go!"

Steward Liu didn't know what Wei Hao was going to do, but when he heard Wei Hao's words, he still ordered his subordinates to find a hoe, and after finding it, Wei Hao let them dig it. The excavated soil was in vain.

"This!" Wei Hao squatted down, took the soil in his hand and squeezed it vigorously, and found that the viscosity was very good.

"This is kaolin?" Wei Hao was shocked in his heart, this is the clay that can be used to make ceramics, and it is so close to Chang'an City?

"Keep digging!" Wei Hao said to those people. They didn't know what Wei Hao was going to do, Wei Hao asked them to dig, they naturally wanted to dig, continue to dig underneath, the soil below was more sticky.

"Alright, alright!" Wei Hao asked them to stop, and then took those people to continue to walk to other places, at this moment Wei Hao was still very surprised, he didn't expect that there was also kaolin here in Chang'an City, which was a good raw material for making ceramics.

After a morning, Wei Hao transferred all the land appreciation, and there was an area of kaolin on the surface, Wei Hao estimated that it would not be less than 1,000 acres, and the official who couldn't get along with the Ministry of Rites and himself was simply a big gift to himself.

In the palace, Li Shimin also got the position of Wei Hao's land reward, including who presided over the land reward, and he already knew who presided over the land reward.

"Wei Liang, Wei Cong's brother! Interesting. Li Shimin finished reading the chapter, smiled, and knew that it must have been Wei Liang or Wei Cong who did this, bullying Wei Hao didn't know the quality of those lands at all, and when the reward was awarded, Wei Hao could only suffer a dumb loss.

"Your Majesty, I know that this land was originally intended to be given to the Duke of Luguo, Junji, and the Duke of Luguo came to you at the beginning, saying that you don't want this land, this land can't be planted at all, and you also criticized the officials of the Ministry of Rites." Wang De, the eunuch beside Li Shimin, said to Li Shimin.

"When you say that, I still remember, is this land?" Li Shimin heard it, turned his head to Wang De and asked.

"It's this land, this land is actually very close to Chang'an City, but because there is no grass, it's a wasteland!" Wang De said to Li Shimin,

Li Shimin heard it, nodded, and didn't speak, he was still a little unhappy in his heart for the Wei family bullying Wei Hao like this, if it was Wei Hao who was bullied by people from other families, Li Shimin would not say anything, but people from the same family did such a thing, Li Shimin looked down on him quite a bit.

At noon, Li Shimin went to the Lizheng Hall for dinner, and found that the food in the Lizheng Hall was actually from Juxian Building.

"How can someone send it over?" Li Shimin looked at Empress Eldest Sun with a smile and asked.

"It's this girl who just brought it back." Empress Eldest Sun said with a chuckle.

"Oh, where's that girl?" Li Shimin heard it and asked.

"I'm holding my son in there." Empress Eldest Sun gestured to the existing house behind her and said.

"Call Liz." Li Shimin said to a palace maid, and the palace maid went out immediately.

"But what's wrong?" Empress Eldest Sun looked at Li Shimin and asked.

"Nope." Li Shimin shook his head and said, then sat down and prepared to eat.

"Father, are you looking for me?" Li Lizhi came to Li Shimin's side and asked.

"Well, the store is open today, right?" Li Shimin nodded and asked.

"It's opened, the business is quite good, there are still many businessmen who came to us this morning, we also sold to them, one morning, we sold 500,000 sheets, and there are many more in the afternoon, those merchants came to order, all of them are tens of thousands of pieces at one time, and now we have almost consumed the backlog of paper we had before, by the way, father, today there are officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs to our store, they want to order 100,000 sheets!" When Li Lizhen heard Li Shimin ask about this, she said very happily.

"That's good, so the paper in your paper workshop won't be sold at all?" Li Shimin smiled and questioned Li Li.

"Yes, that's for sure! There must be no problem with this piece of internal money, but father, after we get 30,000 yuan of this money, we need to give it to Wei Hao, and Wei Hao hasn't taken a penny yet. Li Lizhen reminded Li Shimin that there is a contract for this.

"Yes!" Li Shimin sighed, thinking about giving Wei Hao so much money, he was still a little reluctant, not that he shouldn't give Wei Hao points,

But now, the court really needs money, and Empress Changsun knows what he is thinking when she sees Li Shimin like this.

"Lizhen, can you talk to Wei Hao, just say, your father borrowed him, and he will return it to him in the future, and now the court needs money!" Empress Eldest Sun looked at Li Li and asked.

"Ah, borrow his money?" Li Lizhi heard it, looked at Empress Eldest Sun in shock, and then looked at Li Shimin.

"The court really has no money, you also know the situation on the border, the Turkic attacks are continuous, and the court still needs to increase the number of troops on the border, and my father has only been on the throne for four years, there are many different voices, once the border side can't stand it, hey!" Li Shimin sighed as he spoke.

"Cheng, father, I'll talk to Wei Hao, I don't know if he will agree." Li Lizhen immediately agreed to this matter.

"By the way, girl, how much do you think this paper workshop can make this year?" Li Shimin then questioned Li Li.

"Before, Wei Hao promised me that I would be able to get 30,000 or 40,000 yuan a year, but now it seems that it will definitely be more than that, our monthly profit will be more than 30,000 yuan, and now it is at least 4 months before the winter freezes, I estimate that we can get at least 60,000 yuan." Li Lizhi thought about it for a while, and said to Li Shimin, she was really suspicious in her heart, why did her father ask this?
