Chapter 161 Very Happy Thing
At the end of the dinner, Fu Yanqing and Zhang Yongde were drunk, Guo Zongxun was not a drinker, and he was too young.
Arrange someone to send Fu Yanqing and Zhang Yongde back to their respective mansions, Guo Zongxun returned to the dormitory, changed into a black practice uniform, was carried by Lu Siniang and Nalan Yi sisters, jumped over the high walls of the palace, and went straight to the slums in the east of the city.
There are slums in Kaifeng, which is also a reality that Guo Zongxun has to face, Da Zhou said that the country is strong, but the life of the common people, in Guo Zongxun's view, the vast majority of them are living in dire straits.
The people in the slums are even more miserable.
Chai Shouli was busy with the construction of the printing factory for a day, tired and sore back, at this time, Zhengmei enjoyed a bowl of egg soup made by Sister-in-law Li herself, and Da Chun and Xi'er rubbed his shoulders and legs by his side.
"Godgrandpa, is the egg soup delicious?"
At dinner, Xi'er had actually eaten a lot of good things, but the smell of the fragrant egg soup was still gluttonous.
"Of course it's delicious, Grandpa God's can warn you, don't drink it secretly, Grandpa Grandpa himself is not enough to drink, Da Chun, haven't you eaten enough for dinner, make a little effort, Grandpa's shoulders are very sore."
This is Chai Shouli's current life, full and hard, simple and happy.
Chai Shouli has been living in that semi-open shack, still sleeping on a pile of hay, not that the old man is repenting for his previous wrongdoings, but that the old man is angry.
The old man is also the biological father of the former emperor, and he is the grandfather of today's son, are you embarrassed to leave the old man here?
Later, Chai Shouli realized in despair that these guys really threw themselves here and didn't kill themselves, and it was estimated that no one would dare to carry this black cauldron if they didn't kill themselves, this was to fend for themselves, starve and freeze to death in the slums.
The old man is still not dead, and he must live a life to show you.
Guo Zongxun was silently watching his biological grandfather not far away, and he also had mixed feelings in his heart.
You must be ruthless, you can't be soft-hearted, besides, look at the current appearance of my grandfather, he is still very moist, drinking egg soup, and his godson and godgranddaughter rub their shoulders and beat their legs, this is a natural rich life, and there are people to serve in the slums.
"Go and see how the printing house is built, just do it first, you don't have to have a decent look."
Lu Siniang and Nalan Yi took Guo Zongxun to the printing house again and called Liu Liancheng over.
"Liu Liancheng, you don't have to give me a big gift here, I ask you, the old man said when the printing house can start printing, but I am waiting to send you money."
"The grass people replied to His Majesty's words, the old man said, since the first royal printing house of Wushuangmen is to be built, it must be high-end and high-grade, not to mention the splendor, then at least the carving of beams and paintings......"
Guo Zongxun smiled bitterly, miscalculated, his grandfather was used to the days of fine clothes and fine food, and he had the enthusiasm for invention and creation, so he couldn't move when he was old, but the spirit of the master was still very stubborn.
This should actually be advocated and encouraged, without the spirit of the craftsman, how can we keep improving and constantly innovating.
However, according to my grandfather's toss, I am afraid that this printing house will not be built in a year.
"Liu Liancheng, I give you a task, to find a way to persuade the old man, to design and construct, and to start construction while building, let's just say that the children in the slums are waiting to drink egg soup."
"The grass people obeyed the order and guaranteed the successful completion of the task."
"Liu Liancheng, what are you planning to do, I know that you are from Qizhou, and you still owe a lot of debts, and I have already sent someone to deal with it for you, how do you plan to repay me?"
"The grass people thank Your Majesty for their kindness, the grass people have no other pursuits, and if there is a place where the grass people can learn these strange and obscene skills without worrying about eating and drinking, the grass people will be content."
"Your requirements are not high, Siniang, Nalan, Wushuangmen belongs to the two of you, a talent like Liu Liancheng, I originally planned to let him enter the court as an official, but unfortunately he is not here, then I will hand him over to Wushuangmen."
"Your Majesty, then let Mr. Liu be the chief designer in the Wushuang Gate, this term seems to have been invented by His Majesty."
"Okay, it's very agreeable, Chief Liu, if the Wushuangmen can be carried forward, I will entrust it to designers and skilled craftsmen like you."
"The grass people thank Your Majesty for your grace, Your Majesty, the grass people are courageous, there is something I want to ask Your Majesty to uphold justice for the grass people."
"Chief Liu, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
"Your Majesty, that's the case, when the grass people were in Qizhou, they had designed a plow for the farmers to transform the cultivated land, but they didn't want to be embezzled by an official named Wang Jien...... The grass people really can't swallow this breath, so I want to ask Your Majesty to uphold justice for the grass people. ”
"Chief Liu, before I make a decision, I want to ask you, how do you prove that it is your invention?"
"Your Majesty, the grass people have been prepared, in recent years, the grass people have carried out many transformations and designs on the plough of the cultivated land, making up for the design defects at that time, Your Majesty can find someone to ask this Wang Jien, if he can say the existing defects of this plow and put forward suggestions for transformation, it means that he is also a real ability, the grass people recognize the planting, there is nothing to say."
Guo Zongxun turned back to Lu Siniang and instructed:
"Siniang, remember to remind me when this matter goes back, and hand it over to Li Tongjie's Spiegel Division to handle it, Wang Jien is a person, I have some impressions, it doesn't look like a rice bucket, let Li Tongjie check it carefully."
"The concubine obeys."
"Chief Liu, this matter, after the investigation is clear, I will give you an answer, you have to hurry up about the matter of the printing house, pay more attention, don't delay."
"Thank your majesty for the grass people, which is more important, the grass people are clear, please rest assured."
walked around the palace, although Guo Zongxun was one hundred, one thousand, ten thousand and ten thousand were unwilling to go back, but there was no way, who made him the emperor.
"Siniang, Nalan, you two white swans carry my little frog and drive back to the palace."
"The concubine obeys."
Back in the palace, Guo Zongxun lay alone on the dragon couch that was large enough for seven or eight people to roll on it, tossing and turning and unable to sleep.
In this era, there is absolutely no shortage of talents, it mainly depends on how you discover and cultivate.
Take Xu Guangqi as an example, he went out for a spin and found an outstanding talent Qu Songsheng who could improve wheat and rice seeds.
Besides, my grandfather was rampant and domineering in Luoyang City, and he could actually find Liu Liancheng, an outstanding talent who was keen on invention and creation.
Chai Yong, a street performer in Kaifeng, who would have thought that this guy would now become a fierce general stationed in Gubeikou and look at the Khitan.
Dugu Sheng, according to the recommendation of Yue Fei and Liu Bowen, this person's swordsmanship is extraordinary, chivalrous and courageous, although his personality is arrogant, but in the face of major rights and wrongs, he is also unambiguous.
Han Zhao Han Xianming, born in the Han people, surrendered to the Khitan, brave and strategic, three arrows fixed Gubei, killed the first warrior of the Khitan, and helped the Great Zhou army defeat the last trace of resistance of the Khitans.
There are also Li Shaoyou, as well as Cui Ju and Xinghua couple, as well as the splashy Niu Gao on the streets of Kaifeng......
Guo Zongxun suddenly felt that it should be a very happy thing for him to travel here......
