Chapter 258

Cheng Yanjin wants to compare the brush words with Wei Hao, and the officials in the entire court don't know that Wei Hao's brush writing is the worst, and it looks like they are exhausted, let alone compared with others, but Cheng Yanjin actually said that it is better than this.

"Uncle Cheng, you use a brush, I use a fountain pen, let's compare, who writes faster, as long as you can recognize the words, you can let the horse come!" Wei Hao looked at Cheng Yanjin and said.

"Huh? You write fast? When Cheng Yanjin heard this, he stared at Wei Hao and asked.

"Just compare it, 100 yuan!" Wei Hao immediately looked at Cheng Yanjin and picked his eyes proudly.

"No, I know you kid too well! It's better than writing! Cheng Yanjin immediately shook his head and said.

"Then I'm not coming, why, you've been writing for most of your life, and I've been writing for so many years, so you're embarrassed?" Wei Hao immediately shook his head and said.

"This kid is bad at learning now!" Cheng Yanjin looked at Li Jing and said.

Then he patted Wei Hao on the shoulder and said, "You can't lose to the old man once, you have to know that your father-in-law's private money has been lost to you!" ”

"Don't come, my father-in-law's private money, I asked Siyuan to bring it back, father-in-law, you go back to Siyuan to ask for it, I gave Siyuan 500 yuan yesterday!" Wei Hao said to Li Jing with a smile.

"How much?" Li Jing heard it and looked at Wei Hao in shock.

"500 yuan, she was supposed to take more, but she said she didn't need so much!" Wei Hao immediately replied.

"Oh, good!" Li Jing heard it, nodded, and knew that this kid was rich, very rich, and he took away more than 4,000 yuan from them in two days, and now that everyone is poor, Wei Hao is rich.

"My God, Senior Brother Yao, help, my brother has no money!" When Cheng Yanjin heard this, he immediately looked at Li Jing and said.

"Senior Brother Yao, I don't have it here?" Wei Chi Jingde also shouted.

"Senior Brother Yao, this, the money, the old man is gone, when will you send 20 yuan of money!" Fang Xuanling also said to Li Jing.

"Done!" Li Jing nodded with a smile.

Then Wei Hao smiled and asked them, "Do you still want to come up with a question?" ”

"Get out!" Cheng Yanjin heard it, and said a word to Wei Hao.

"There's a lot of money, and you still have questions?" Wei Chi Jingde also shouted dissatisfiedly at Wei Hao.

"Then what do you want money for?" Wei Hao pretended to be puzzled and looked at them and asked, then said with a smile: "Besides, don't you want the face of a scholar?" ”

"Get out, the old man is a general! What does it matter to me if a scholar is disgraced or not? Cheng Yanjin raised his head high and said loudly.

And the ministers in the back sighed, they were embarrassed and embarrassed, and now Wei Hao has been fulfilled, many people privately call Wei Hao an arithmetic master, everyone, that is not an ordinary title.

"Alright, the palace gate is open, let's go!" Li Jing said to Wei Hao, and then everyone walked inside.

Not long after arriving at the Ganlu Palace, the gate of the Ganlu Hall opened, Wang De announced that he would go to the court, and Wei Hao followed those ministers and continued to hide behind the pillars.

After going to court, Li Shimin asked about what he had done before, and he was also discussing the matter of spring sowing.

Although it is not yet the time for spring sowing, but it is almost time, Li Shimin wants to ask the Ministry of Civil Affairs whether it is ready, what difficulties the people still have, for the affected areas, whether the seeds are ready, and whether the affected areas can be planted now, this Li Shimin needs to ask.

The ministers of the Ministry of Civil Affairs answered one by one, and when it came to agricultural tools, it was the Ministry of Industry to answer.

Wei Hao has been sitting there, thinking about his family's farmland, and he doesn't know if he is ready now, he is going to plant 200 acres of cotton this year, but now there are only so many seeds, and there are no more.

The land for cotton cultivation also needs to be selected well, and it is a waste to use too good farmland, and it is a waste to use too good farmland.

"Well, this cotton, you still need to keep an eye on it yourself, don't worry about handing it over to others, get it well, it's estimated that you can make a lot of money this year, hehe!"

Wei Hao sat there thinking about it, and then thought that he would build a house this year, and I don't know if I got those bricks and tiles, as well as cement, steel bars, and glass, all three have not come out yet, especially the steel bar, I promised Li Shimin that if I want to make steel, then I will get it together, cement and glass are simple, and I can build a kiln when the time comes.

Wei Hao was sitting there thinking about it, and Li Shimin shouted Wei Hao.

"Wei Shenyong, Wei Shenyong!" Li Shimin sat on it and shouted, his eyes kept staring at the side of the pillar, he knew that Wei Hao was hiding behind.

"Eh, father, my son is here!" Wei Hao immediately poked his head out from behind the pillar.

"Come out and sit!" Li Shimin said to Wei Hao with a dark face.

"Huh!" Wei Hao immediately moved the futon and sat out.

"Do you have an answer to the volume of the cone?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and asked.

"Yes, of course there is, what's the matter, has anyone figured it out?" Wei Hao nodded, then looked at the ministers and asked.

How dare those ministers look at his gaze, they all bow their heads and look left and right.

"Well, Shen Yong, I want you to be a doctor of arithmetic, okay?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"Doctor?" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin in shock, is there a doctor now?

"Well, let you teach arithmetic to the students of arithmetic, okay?" Li Shimin then asked.

"Ah, the doctor is the one who teaches, huh?" When Wei Hao heard this, he immediately looked at Li Shimin depressedly and asked.

"Yes, impart knowledge, of course, you are a doctor, that means that your arithmetic is recognized by everyone, so that you will not have any doubts when you teach!" Li Shimin nodded, looked at Wei Hao and said.

"Then I'm not going! Teaching is not fun, I still have to build a school, when the time comes, my students, well, I will teach them arithmetic and Gewu, as long as the students over there in arithmetic, forget it, they probably won't learn, they just want to be officials, they can't understand the mystery of arithmetic and Gewu, and the huge benefits that have been brought by Gewu! When Wei Hao heard this, he shook his head and said.

I'm not interested, the people who are studying in the schools below the Guozijian are all the children of officials, and they all want to be officials.

"Well, there's still a mystery to arithmetic? And that grid, what's the secret? Tell me about it!" Li Shimin immediately asked.

"You don't understand it, you are all people who don't learn and don't know how to do it, don't say it!" Wei Hao sat there, waved his hand and said.

"It's not, you!"

"You, me!" ... As soon as Wei Hao's words fell, the people in the hall all looked at Wei Hao depressedly, and even Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao depressedly.

"Wei Shenyong, you must know that you are an arithmetic master, and you should contribute to the cultivation of those arithmetic students!" Fang Xuanling was sitting there at the moment, looking at Wei Hao and saying.

"Don't worry, I will cultivate, but it's not to go to any country, it's useless to go there, it's all your children over there, they just want to be officials, and now that I'm older, my arithmetic needs to be taught from an early age!" Wei Hao sat there, nodded and said.

"Well, okay, what is the volume of this cone?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"One-third of the volume of a cylinder, you know the volume of a cylinder, right?" Wei Hao looked at those ministers as he spoke, and when those ministers heard it, they didn't know.

"The cylinder doesn't know, it's the square of the radius multiplied by the square, do you know the square? It is the multiplication of two identical numbers is called squared, for example, the diameter I said before is 30 inches, and the height is 60 inches, so if it is a cylinder, it is 3.1415926 times 15 squared, and then multiplied by 60, it is the volume of the cylinder, and dividing by three is the volume of the cone I said before, I don't know? Wei Hao asked the ministers.

"Nonsense, what is that 3.1415926 you are talking about?" A minister refuted Wei Hao and said.

The minister knew about it, and immediately grabbed him.

"How?" The minister looked at the minister next to him in bewilderment.

"This was written by Zu Chongzhi, and the relationship between the circumference and diameter of the circle calculated by calculation was more than 100 years ago!" The minister next to him whispered.

"Huh? I! The minister heard it and was ashamed.

"Why do you say you're right?" A minister asked at Wei Hao.

"You won't verify, take a bucket, measure the diameter and height inside, then fill it with water, pour it into a cuboid box, and measure it, really!" Wei Hao looked at those ministers with disdain and said.

When the ministers heard it, they looked at me and I looked at you.

"Shen Yong, how do you know?" Li Shimin asked Wei Hao curiously.

"If you figure it out, how can you look like them, you will know that the people of heaven and earth, the words of the saints, etc., you don't know why you say this, how else can you say it, you will know how to pick up people's teeth!" Wei Hao immediately looked at those ministers with disdain and said.

When those ministers heard it, they dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, and now it was Wei Hao's turn to be proud.

"Okay, here of the Ministry of Industry, verify whether what Wei Hao said is right, Guozijian here, record this algorithm, and the students over there will need to learn this when the time comes!" Li Shimin immediately said to the ministers below.

The officials of the Ministry of Industry nodded.

"Okay, let's disperse, Wei Hao, ambush, Xuan Ling, pharmacist, come to the study with me!" Li Shimin stood up as he spoke.

Wei Hao and a few others immediately stood up and said yes.

Soon, they arrived at Li Shimin's study, Li Shimin asked them to sit down, and then said: "Spring sowing, you have to pay attention, especially in the south, the north is mainly wheat, you can leave it alone, but in the south, some places are planted with rice, but you have to hurry up, and the seeds also need to be prepared, once the people have no seeds, the local governments need to provide them."

In the past two years, there has been no war in many places, and the population has increased a lot, but the grain output has not been able to go up, if there is not enough food, it is not good to have a famine, in addition, silkworm raisers also need to pay attention, whether the mulberry leaf planting area in various places is enough, whether it is necessary to plant some, and also need people from various places to count well! The plan of the year lies in the spring, and if you don't do those things well in the spring, you will be hungry in the autumn and winter! Li Shimin sat there, staring at Fang Xuanling and said.

"Yes, the minister is going to send officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Industry to various places to inspect the planting situation!" Fang Xuanling nodded and said.

"Well, it's going to be sent out, in the past two years, the war has decreased, but when it's time to recuperate, it can't be delayed, by the way, Shen Yong, your family has so much land, are you ready?" Li Shimin asked Wei Hao.

"Back to my father, I don't know, my father is in charge, and my father scolds me every day for not caring about family affairs, so for a while now, I will also be busy with family affairs!" Wei Hao touched his head and said.

"How much land does your family have now?" Fang Xuanling looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"I don't know, fifty or sixty thousand acres, my father said, those fields have been rented out, and there is the food for me to plant, there are enough people, but you need to keep an eye on it, but you can't delay the farming time!" Wei Hao immediately spoke.

When Fang Xuanling heard this, he shook his head with a wry smile, Wei Hao's family has fifty or sixty thousand acres of fertile land, what kind of concept is this, their Guogong's house, that is, thousands of acres, that is still rewarded by His Majesty.

"Well, if you have time, you can help, no matter what happens, you can't delay the agricultural time!" Li Shimin nodded.

Then he said to Wei Hao: "When are you going to start working on this piece of steel?" Now there are wars on the side side, although it is small-scale, but for the military quartermaster, the consumption is still very large, and, as far as grenades are concerned, a lot of steel is also needed.

At present, the grenade is very useful, from last winter to now, my soldiers of the Tang Dynasty have not been defeated in the border areas, and the Turks who have come to rob have been killed, and the Tubo people have turned on their backs, killing a lot of enemies, but now, we still do not have the strength to completely solve these problems, and the Tang Dynasty does not have enough financial and material resources to fight such a large-scale battle, so we can only wait first, and control the border area first! Li Shimin said to Wei Hao.

"Father, this has to be thawed before you can get it. And to build those things, you also need to wait for the beginning of spring, or wait until you are busy with farming, okay? Wei Hao immediately said.

"Well, okay, of course, this is of course, farming is the most important, but steel is also important, and now the total amount of steel in my Datang is only 200,000 catties a year, which is far from enough!" Li Shimin sat there, nodded and said.

200,000 catties! Isn't that equivalent to 150 tons in later generations, a country, just such a little steel, that is definitely not enough, not to mention others, just the armor of those soldiers, 10,000 soldiers need nearly 100,000 steel, not to mention weapons, as well as agricultural tools, etc., all need steel.

"That's it?" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin in shock and asked.

"Hmm. That still includes those pig iron that is not of good quality! Otherwise, how could iron be so expensive, 100 yuan per pound of iron! Li Jing nodded and said.

"Oh my God, is it so expensive?" Wei Hao looked at them in shock and asked.

He really didn't know that iron was so expensive, Wei Furong had bought it before, or it was rewarded by Li Shimin.

"Well, I can't buy it yet, by the way, Shen Yong, how much can you get in a year when you go to get steel?" Fang Xuanling stared at Wei Hao and asked.

"How much do you want?" Wei Hao looked at them and asked.

"Of course, the more the merrier!" Li Shimin spoke first.

"Let's talk about it first, I need steel to build a house this year, about 200,000 catties!" Wei Hao looked at them and said.

They heard it and looked at Wei Hao in shock, this house still needs so much iron, and the place where they use iron to build a house is an iron nail.

"Your family uses iron nails to build all the houses, and you can't stack them with iron nails?" Eldest Sun Wuji stared at Wei Hao and asked.

"Let you say this, uncle, your house is stacked with iron nails? I'm useful, don't worry, how much do you want, I'll give you a package ticket! After Wei Hao finished speaking to the eldest grandson Wuji, he looked at Fang Xuanling and said.

"Then, we want another 200,000 catties, if there are 400,000 catties of iron, I think our iron shortage will be greatly alleviated!" Fang Xuanling looked at Li Shimin as he spoke.

Li Shimin nodded and agreed, however, he was very curious, Wei Hao's house needs so much iron?

"Can you make a profit, 200,000 catties, you look down on people, don't you? I'm out of the horse, so that's it? Wei Hao looked at them and said very unhappily.

"No, you mean you can get more? You use 200,000 catties yourself, plus we want 200,000 catties, that's 400,000 catties! Li Jing immediately reminded Wei Hao and said.

"I know, let's do it, set a small goal, a year... Well... 2 million catties, it's about the same! Wei Hao sat there and watched them speak.

They all looked at Wei Hao dumbfounded, 2 million catties, nearly ten years of output in Datang in one year, which is also too scary.

"I said Wei Shenyong, you can think about it carefully, if not, then I will punish you!" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and said, thinking to himself, why is this kid still blowing?

"You can rest assured, but the cost is a lot, I estimate that the construction of the entire steel mill, without 100,000 yuan, is definitely not enough!" Wei Hao then said to them.

"100,000 yuan, you can rest assured, the Ministry of Civil Affairs will give 150,000 yuan, you can do it with confidence, we don't want 2 million catties, just 500,000 catties, there are 500,000 catties, how many things can be solved?" Fang Xuanling immediately said excitedly to Wei Hao.

"Yes, if you give you another 100,000 yuan, you will need 500,000 catties, okay?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and said excitedly.

"Cheng, you can rest assured that the money is in place, and it will start working soon!" Wei Hao nodded, patted his chest and said.

"Well, I really hope that you can succeed, salt alone, solve the big problem of the court, and now every month, the Ministry of Civil Affairs can earn 60,000 or 70,000 yuan, which is very good!" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and said happily.
