For the next 10 days, everything was uneventful.

Chen Lin, who had been busy with various government affairs in Luzhou, was a little worried about King Xu's whim that day, but he waited for ten days, but he never waited for the king's order - this feeling of waiting was really more uncomfortable than knowing the answer directly!

However, as an old oilman in officialdom, Chen Lin would not be naïve to think that King Xu had given up that idea.

Every time Chen Lin went to see Li Yuanjia, he couldn't talk for a long time, but after many times, Chen Lin asked himself that he already had a certain understanding of this King Xu. He knew very well that this sixteen-year-old boy was definitely not as "unmotivated" as others had seen!

Staying away from politics and officialdom is just a means of survival for that teenager.

Even Li Yuanjia's dedication to food, tables and chairs, and quyuan ploughs and other utensils seems to be showing an attitude to others and further making himself safer.

However, underneath all the surfaces, Chen Lin also saw some other things.

For example, if you decide on something, you will not be stubborn to change your mind because of the persuasion of others; For example, once he recognizes something, King Xu will unswervingly continue to do it, and he will never stop or turn back!

The so-called sewer, Luzhou must be built.

So even if he was a little worried about Li Yuanjia's rash decision, for fear that the so-called sewer project in his mouth would be too large and end up costing the people and money, but after returning from the Luzhou Government Office, Chen Lin still instructed his subordinates to start preparing - once the king ordered, how many people can be recruited near Luzhou City, how much food needs to be prepared, how many materials and tools are needed, Chen Lin must give Li Yuanjia a perfect answer......

……

Compared with Chen Lin who was busy, Li Yuanjia's ten days were also not easy.

"All sewers, must be culverts!"

When Huang Zhongliang, who designed the drainage ditch for the Luzhou Government Office, was bitter again, Li Yuanjia still said lightly: "I will not allow anyone to change this...... And don't forget my other requirements, you must do the same, and you must not slack off! ”

"Yes, King!"

Hearing Li Yuanjia's final tone become stern, Huang Zhongliang was shocked, and hurriedly bowed his head in panic and said yes.

"Goo-dong!"

While swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he can't wait to give himself a slap in the face now!

This, this is King Xu!

The current emperor's own brother, the prince of Genhong Miaozheng, the lord of Luzhou City, what kind of bear's heart and leopard gall did he eat just now, and dare to ask King Xu to lower his requirements?

Seeing Huang Zhongliang's panicked appearance, Li Yuanjia was a little refreshed.

Of course, what he is happy about is not that this Huang Zhongliang is so afraid of himself, but that he is happy when he says it, and he dares not to obey. Especially in the matter of building sewers, Li Yuanjia only put forward his own requirements, and then asked Huang Zhongliang to take a group of brick craftsmen and stonemasons to explore on their own, no one dared to be lazy, let alone perfunctory.

After several years of "training", Li Yuanjia finally mastered the trick of dealing with them.

You must not use vague statements, because these people are really "foolish", or they will always measure your requirements by the standard of assumptions. And as a prince, Li Yuanjia's best thing to do is to directly use power to suppress people - I am the prince, and I am the assassin, so Lao Tzu has the final say!

And those who dare to play tricks with the prince these years, anyway, Li Yuanjia has never seen it, and even those who dare to carry it are very rare.

However, Li Yuanjia didn't want Huang Zhongliang to be blindly afraid, so after a while, he said softly: "If you think it's very difficult, don't always do it alone, you can discuss it with others!" I have brought you three stonemasons, two bricklayers, a blacksmith, and even a carpenter...... Is it just for them to look at you and worry? ”

"This ......"

After listening to Li Yuanjia's words, Huang Zhongliang's eyelids jumped several times, but he didn't know how to respond.

Consult with them?

Although he is just a small seventh-rank official, he doesn't even dare to take a breath in front of the prince, but he is also a superior person in the Tang Dynasty, and he discusses with these craftsmen who can only be classified as the lower ninth rank?

As soon as he saw Huang Zhongliang's expression, Li Yuanjia guessed what he was thinking.

This kind of thing, he has seen too much after he was reborn. Not to mention that Datang's attitude towards craftsmen is more contemptuous, just to say that in his Xu Wangfu, those craftsmen have made so many good things for Li Yuanjia, isn't he still looked down upon by all walks of life in the mansion? For example, the housekeeper Han Shan, and then Li Yuanjia's two personal maids......

So it's not surprising that Huang Zhongliang has such an idea.

Li Yuanjia didn't bother to interfere with the inherent concepts of these people, and frowned with displeasure: "Okay, I've already woken you up what to do, whether you want it to be your own business or not!" But there is one thing I want to see in a month a realistic plan...... Do you understand? ”

"Ming, understood, King!"

After respectfully sending Li Yuanjia away, Huang Zhongliang's face quickly sank.

What to do?

Although he was full of reluctance, when he thought of King Xu's requests, Huang Zhongliang really couldn't think of how he could do it - to dig such a huge pipeline network under the entire Luzhou City, and also to achieve the requirements of dredging and inspecting the people, and preventing the people from putting debris into the pipes to block the pipes.

Could it be ......

Do you really want to talk to those guys?

Clenched his fists vigorously, Huang Zhongliang thought that he was going to discuss and do things together with those craftsmen who were full of calluses and had yellow mud on their legs and feet, and his face quickly became as gloomy as the sky that was about to rain......

……

After Li Yuanjia left, Han Shan, who was full of puzzlement, finally couldn't help but ask: "King, if Huang Zhongliang and they can't come up with a way in a month, you, what are you going to do?" ”

"Huh, how?"

Glancing at Lao Han, Li Yuanjia smiled and said, "What else can I do?" Is it because they can't do it, so they just can't beat and scold it? ”

"This ......"

Looking at the happy look of the king, Han Shan didn't dare to speak, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Look, look at how good my king is!

As a subordinate of the king, isn't it a matter of course to give you a bad job and give them a severe punishment in the end? This is to put aside some grumpy princes, not to mention beating and scolding, even if they take off their officials, it's not strange to punish their crimes, right?

Of course, Li Yuanjia didn't know Han Shan's thoughts, and he was not interested, and his mind was all on another thing at this time: "The sewer shouldn't be so difficult, sooner or later these people will definitely be able to solve it!" But if you want a relatively clean city, it doesn't seem like you can just have sewers......"
