Chapter 264

Those princes are very depressed, Wei Hao gave them the opportunity to make money, but they can't grasp it, this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, no one is short of money, even Li Shimin is short of money, and now they don't make money if they have money to give it to them.

"Go back, the old man will clean him up, rabbit cub!" Fang Xuanling gritted his teeth at this moment and said, and the other princes also clenched their fists,

And Wei Chi Jingde is very proud, his conditions are better than them, after all, he only has two sons, but no one will dislike Qian Duo,

In addition, Li Jing is also happy, not to mention that his son-in-law has money, and now he is still making money with his son, although he said that he has no pressure of money, if he is really short of money, Wei Hao will definitely lend it to himself, but he also hopes to get more money and buy more properties for the second child, so that the second child can say more comfortable.

And the other princes clenched their fists, they were very depressed at the moment, no

Yes, the most fortunate thing is Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong, fortunately, I knew to talk about this matter, otherwise, this money would have slipped away from my hands, and now I am good, I have more than three or five thousand yuan a year, and I can also reduce a lot of pressure on myself.

"Okay, don't talk about this brick, don't impeach the brick, what's impeachment, people rely on their skills, they didn't steal or rob, and they didn't force those people to buy it, at this time impeachment, I dismissed it, it's not like words!" Li Shimin looked at the ministers and finished speaking, then stared at Yu Chi Baolin and asked, "What about Shen Yong, are you in the brick shop every day now?" ”

"No, the people who can't see him, the matter of the brick factory, we are all making ideas!" Yu Chi Baolin shook her head and said.

"Well, this rabbit cub, Wang De!" When Li Shimin heard it, he scolded angrily, thinking that this kid must be sleeping lazily at home, and now it has become hot, and he is not going to set off.

"The little ones are here!" Wang De immediately stood up.

"When I went to Wei Hao's house, I said that I wanted to see him, let him come to the Ganlu Palace, and eat in the Lizheng Hall at noon, and his mother hadn't seen him for a long time, saying that she missed him a little!" Li Shimin said to Wang De.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wang De immediately went out and arranged for someone to call Wei Hao to go, and after the next court, Li Shimin returned to the study, and Fang Xuanling couldn't wait to go home now at the moment, clean them up and talk about it, thinking about it, he panicked in his heart.

And in Wei Hao's house, after Wei Hao got up, he was still drawing drawings, waiting for the eunuchs in the palace to come to Wei Hao's mansion and ask Wei Hao to go to the palace.

"Is there something wrong with my father?" Wei Hao looked at the eunuch and asked.

"Back to Xia Guogong, Your Majesty said that the queen misses you and asks you to go to the Lizheng Palace for lunch, and in addition, I want you to go to the Ganlu Hall first!" The eunuch said to Wei Hao.

"Oh, I'm busy now, how can I have that time, okay, I'll go!" Wei Hao said that he took the unfinished drawings in his hand, as well as a ruler, a compass made by himself, and a pen to prepare to go to the palace, and he was also thinking in his heart, what is Li Shimin looking for himself, he is busy now, and soon, Wei Hao arrived at the Manna Palace.

"Do you still know how much leave you have already asked for in the morning? Why are you at home? Li Shimin saw Wei Hao coming, so he sat there, stared at Wei Hao and asked dissatisfiedly.

"I'm busy, I do things every day except for martial arts, and my arm hurts when I'm tired!" Wei Hao stood there, staring at Li Shimin and said dissatisfiedly.

"What's the busy? Busy sleeping? "Where would Li Shimin believe it, just him, he's still busy.

"Father, you're making me sad, I don't want to be busy with iron things? You think I'll be able to turn iron ore into iron if I go, I still have that ability? Father, do you have anything to do, I'm not busy, I'll go to the Lizheng Palace to see my mother later! Wei Hao stood there and said to Li Shimin very unhappily.

"Ah, busy with iron matters, come, talk to me, what are you busy with?" When Li Shimin heard this, he smiled, he didn't believe it at all, so he asked Wei Hao.

"Father, do you have any problems?" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin helplessly and asked, when Li Shimin heard it, he was actually impatient.

"Rabbit cub, talk to your father well, what are you busy with?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and scolded.

"See for yourself, then!" Wei Hao sat down as he spoke, put the drawings, rulers, and compasses on the table, unfolded the drawings, and began to stare at the drawings.

"Huh?" Li Shimin saw this, became interested, immediately got down from his desk, walked to Wei Hao's side, looked at the drawing, confused, what is this, but he knows that this is a drawing, he has seen the drawings of the Ministry of Engineering, but there is no detail of Wei Hao.

"Father, give me two blank pieces of paper, I want to calculate!" Wei Hao looked up at Li Shimin and said, as soon as Li Shimin heard this, he immediately took out a few blank pieces of paper from his desk and handed them to Wei Hao, and Wei Hao began to calculate,

But Wei Hao's calculations made Li Shimin completely ignorant, and now Li Shimin also knows Arabic numerals, and also knows the symbols of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, but there are still many symbols he doesn't know, thinking if Wei Hao deliberately deceived himself to make such a play,

But when he saw Wei Hao calculating there with a serious face, and finally calculated the numbers, Wei Hao began to hold the ruler and began to draw on the drawings, and also made marks, what Li Shimin couldn't understand was that what the calculated numbers had to do with the drawings.

Wei Hao painted very seriously, so that Li Shimin was reluctant to bother.

"Your Majesty, Gao Shilian, the secretary of the ministry, asks to see you!" Wang De came in and said to Li Shimin, the previous secretary of the ministry was Hou Junji, and at the beginning of the year, Gao Shilian took over the position of the secretary of the ministry.

"Well, please, tell him, speak quietly!" Li Shimin glanced at Wei Hao, and then said to Wang De.

"Yes!" Wang De went out immediately, and specially explained to Gao Shilian.

"You mean, Shen Yong is inside, what are you doing?" Gao Shilian looked at Wang De puzzled and asked, Wei Hao is inside, so there is no need to say that he wants to speak quietly.

"The little one doesn't know, it's working, but I don't know what to do, His Majesty specially ordered it, just talk in a whisper later!" Wang De continued to say to Gao Shilian,

Gao Shilian nodded, and soon, he came to the study, and the first thing Gao Shilian saw was Wei Hao sitting there drawing.

"Your Majesty, this is a list that the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs have recently planned to supplement, Your Majesty, please take a look at it and see if there is anything that needs to be deleted!" Gao Shilian quietly took out the piece and said to Li Shimin.

"Oh, did the Inspectorate issue an investigation report on these officials?" Li Shimin asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, it's issued, the excellent ones are all in the front, and the good ones are in the back, before we gave the Supervisory Yuan a list, and they deleted half of the people, and many of them were rated poor! As for why it is bad, the minister does not know! Gao Shilian immediately said.

"Well, I have read the report, many of the lists you recommend for consideration are not yet in office, and they have average local reputations, and the investigation of the Supervision Yuan found that many of them have been very close to the family, and even become the sons-in-law of the family, receiving benefits from the family, I said, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, there can be no people from the family, so they were eliminated!" Li Shimin took the chapter and looked at it carefully, and made sure that there was no one from the family, so Li Shimin picked up his cinnabar pen and began to annotate, and after the annotation was finished, he handed it to Gao Shilian.

"Your Majesty, the minister retires!" Gao Shilian couldn't stay longer, and wanted to talk to Li Shimin, but now that Wei Hao was here, he didn't know what he was painting.

After Gao Shilian left, Li Shimin came to Wei Hao's side again and watched Wei Hao draw drawings, but he couldn't understand it.

"Prudence, prudence!" Li Shimin saw that Wei Hao seemed to have finished painting a part, so he shouted Wei Hao.

"Wait a minute, I'm done drawing this, or I'll be in trouble if I forget it!" Wei Hao's eyes were still staring at the drawings, and he said, Li Shimin was naturally waiting for Wei Hao, it was the first time he saw Wei Hao doing something so seriously, and this made Li Shimin very satisfied.

"Whew, okay, the most critical part is finished!" Hu Hao put down the pen and exhaled, the pen, I'm afraid of drawing wrong, before Wei Hao starts the pen, he has to count it several times in his head, and draw it several times on the scratch paper at the same time, to make sure that there is no problem, he will hand it over to the drawings, thinking of this, Wei Hao thought that he should get out the pencil and come out, otherwise, he would be too tired to draw the drawings!

"Shen Yong, what are you drawing?" Li Shimin pointed to the drawings and asked Wei Hao.

"The equipment of the steel mill, father, you don't understand!" Wei Hao opened his mouth and spoke.

"Steel? Iron, you say? Li Shimin asked.

"Steel is steel, iron is iron, of course, it's the same, but it's not the same, forget it, father, I can't explain it to you!" When Wei Hao heard this, he immediately emphasized to Li Shimin, and then found helplessly, as if he couldn't explain it clearly to him.

"Well, then you don't need to explain, then, when will you be able to leave? Are the drawings finished? Li Shimin said with a pleasant face, he now knows that Wei Hao is really not idle, and he is thinking about iron at home, which makes him very satisfied.

"It is estimated that it will take five or six days, there are still a few drawings left, and I have to make a list of them, you need to prepare those materials for me, in addition, you also have to give me those craftsmen, rest assured, before the son said 2 million catties, that is the least, if you don't do it, it is 20 million catties, I am guaranteed that you will not be able to use it up, I heard that the family also controls the iron, isn't it?" Wei Hao said to Li Shimin with a smile.

"Hmm. That can't be helped, it is a capital crime to sell salt and iron, but, the output of iron in the court is limited, and the people still need iron, what can I do, I can only turn a blind eye, you look at the current table salt, there are very few private salts on the market, why, now the price of official salt is very low, and private salt can't be sold at all, even if they can be sold, they don't have much profit, and it is still a capital crime to be caught, so few people sell it, but iron, my father can't ban it, if it is banned, it will delay agricultural affairs and delay the people's affairs. It can only make them money! Li Shimin sat there and nodded.

"Then the father can rest assured in the future, just this piece of iron, it is estimated that there will be no problem, you can use it as much as you want in the future, and the sons and daughters will try their best to do less than ten cents and one catty!" Wei Hao stood there and said to Li Shimin with a smile.

"Oh?" When Li Shimin heard this, he looked at Wei Hao in surprise, and then asked anxiously: "The output is really so high." ”

"That's for sure!" Wei Hao nodded affirmatively.

"Then the family doesn't want to sell iron, okay, if you really do it, I will be rewarded!" Li Shimin said happily to Wei Hao.

"What is the reward, I am not because of this, father, if you want to reward me, can you give me a few years off or something?" Wei Hao sat there, looked at Li Shimin and asked.

"For how long? Years? It's been about the same for a few days! Li Shimin heard Wei Hao say this, he was angry, he had been on vacation for a few years, and he had never heard of it, but it was also angry to talk about it for a few days, and after a few months, Li Shimin would still think about it.

"It's boring, eh, anyway, I'll manage the library after I finish the iron, and I don't care about the rest!" Wei Hao sat there and said helplessly,

Li Shimin will take care of him there, if you don't want to work, that's not good, there are so many things in the court, Li Shimin has been thinking about it, in the end, it is good to let Wei Hao manage that piece, I originally hoped that Wei Hao would serve as the waiter of the Ministry of Industry, but this kid doesn't do it, he still needs to use his brains, not to mention anything else, just say that the drawings he just drew are more than enough to go to the Ministry of Industry, but if he doesn't go, it will make people distressed,

And at this moment, in Fang Xuanling's house, Fang Xuanling sat in the living room of his house with a black face, and asked the people in the family to call the eldest son Fang Yi to come over.

"Master, the eldest prince and the sons of several other grandfathers of the country, now go to Juxian Building for dinner!" The housekeeper came over and reported to Fang Xuanling.

"Eat, he can still eat, let him roll back for me, he can't eat this meal!" Fang Xuanling shouted angrily.

"Ah, yes!" The housekeeper feels very strange, Fang Xuanling has always liked Fang Zhizhi very much, why did he get so angry at him today, this is a bit abnormal, what did the eldest prince do, how did he make the master so angry, no way, now Fang Xuanling wants to call Fang Zhizhi back, they can only shout, when they arrived at Juxian Building, the family of Fang Mansion went to the box to find Fang Zhizhi.

"The eldest prince, the lord has something urgent to ask you to go back, you better go and come to dinner after seeing the master!" The housekeeper of the house said directly to Fang Yi.

"My dad is looking for me, what is the important matter?" Fang Yizhi heard it and was stunned for a moment, as well as the eldest grandson Chong, Gao Shilian's son Gao Cheng, Xiao Yu's son Xiao Rui, and their fathers were all among the top civil officials in the dynasty, so they often got together. At this time, the mansion of the eldest grandson Wuji also sent someone over.

"Eldest son, the master told you to go back!" The family member in the eldest grandson Wuji's mansion also said to the eldest grandson Chong.

"This? Let's forget it, we'll see you next time! Gao Cheng thought about it for a while, and said, two of the four people have gone back, what else are they eating?

And at this time, Gao Fu also sent someone over, shouting Gao Cheng to go back, and a few of them were even more strange thinking that it was not a big thing that happened in the court, otherwise, how could they call themselves these people to go back, he is the eldest son of the family, something big must have happened, and he wants to explain their affairs, Fang Zhizhi rushed to the house, and when he arrived in the living room, the housekeeper stopped Fang Zhizhi.

"Son, be careful, my lord is very unhappy! Did you provoke the lord there? The housekeeper asked directly at Fang Yi.

"Ah, no, I didn't do anything! Isn't there something going on in the court? Fang Yizhi was also stunned, could it be that he was wrong?

"I don't know about this, anyway, the master is just not happy!" The housekeeper shook his head and reminded Fang Zhizhi to say.

"Okay, I got it!" Fang Yi nodded straight, and went directly to the living room,

When Fang Xuanling saw that he was back, he was angry, and immediately took the cup and threw it at Fang Xuanling, Fang Xuanling squatted down, dodged, and then looked at Fang Xuanling in a daze: "Dad, what's wrong with you?" ”

"What's wrong with me, you're still asking me what's wrong? You rabbit cub, you have all lost the money you have, you rabbit cub! "Fang Xuanling is angry, although he is a left-handed servant, he is indeed a little unable to talk about money, but he can't talk about money without money, besides, this money is coming from the right way, no one will say anything, and now it is gone.

"What, what money, Dad, I haven't spent a lot of money lately, Dad, you know me, I won't spend money indiscriminately!" Fang Yi was dumbfounded, is this a misunderstanding?

"The old man asked you, did they look for you and say that they wanted to build a brick workshop with Wei Hao, ah, isn't it?" Fang Xuanling stood there, staring at Fang Yu and shouting.

"Ah, this, yes, no, Dad, who knew they would be so powerful, and now I also know that they can make money, but who would have thought?" Fang Zhizhi immediately thought of this matter, and then began to defend himself.

"You know, you know that you are Wei Hao, the old man is still strange, it stands to reason that the relationship between the old man and Wei Hao is okay, there is no reason not to call you, I didn't expect it, people called you, you don't go, what do you let the old man say, do you know how much profit they make a year? The five of them have to share the profits of three or five thousand yuan a year, you rabbit cub! Fang Xuanling scolded directly.

"This, this, so much?" Fang Zhizhi was also dumbfounded at the moment, who would have thought of such a high profit.

"People can return to their capital in a month, you go to other people's brick factories to see, see how many people are queuing up to buy bricks, how many bricks people produce in a day, oops, I'm angry with the old man!" Fang Xuanling is angry at the moment, he feels distressed when he thinks about it, so much money, his family's income is only about 1,000 yuan a year, and the family's expenses are also large, it would be good to save 100 yuan a year, now such a good opportunity is gone!

And in the eldest grandson Wuji's house, many people also did it directly.
