Chapter 80: Preparing for the Establishment of the Academy (2) (For the first helmsman in this book, I will dedicate the first song to you)
Tao Ran heard that it was the Ministry of Industry Shangshu and the Ministry of Industry Squire who came to visit, and he knew that it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who made this matter happen...
In the future, the construction branches and construction colleges all over the country will inevitably trouble the Ministry of Engineering, and it is still the best policy to maintain the relationship at the moment...
So Tao Ran used the best seat of Tao Xiaosheng Restaurant to entertain the arrival of Wu Puguang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and Yuan Weilei, the waiter...
After a simple greeting, Tao Ran personally cooked a few side dishes for Wu Puguang and Yuan Weilei...
And also brought a pot of self-brewed liquor...
Wu Puguang and Yuan Weilei are tasting this exquisite stir-fry for the first time...
The vinegared shredded potatoes they tasted in the court last time have made them amazed by Chang'an Hou's cooking skills...
Now after tasting the side dishes fried by Chang'an Hou himself, I have to sigh that in fact, vinegared shredded potatoes are really like that...
Or this stir-fried dish has a long aftertaste, which makes people feel like they want to swallow their tongues too...
The wine is good wine, the high wine they have never drunk...
Wu Puguang, who is not good at drinking, has a spicy face and a thick neck...
made Tao Ran and Yuan Weilei laugh...
Everything was carried out in a pleasant atmosphere, and finally Tao Ran and Wu Puguang reached an agreement on the manpower of the craftsmen...
From tomorrow, Yuan Weilei, the squire, will lead twenty carpenters to Nanshan to cut down trees at the address of the college...
"Wu Shangshu, Yuan Shilang... In the future, I will have to bother the two chiefs a lot... Please bear with me..." Tao Ran said as he raised his wine glass and toasted the two.
"Lord Hou is polite, they are all doing things for the court... Your Majesty has instructed me to fully assist Master Hou to carry out the construction of this academy well, and this official must also do his best to do a good job in order to live up to His Majesty's trust and expectations..." Wu Puguang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, drank the wine in the cup after speaking...
On the second day, halfway up the slopes of Nanshan, dozens of carpenters began their day's work with the rising sun...
Tao Ran drew the drawings overnight last night and handed them over to the big housekeeper Ma Zhou...
At this time, Ma Zhou was carefully discussing the design on the drawings with Yuan Weilei, the waiter of the Ministry of Works...
Tao Ran's college drawings once again shocked Yuan Weilei, the waiter of the Ministry of Works...
It turns out that the drawings can be drawn so realistically, so carefully...
They can't pick out anyone who can draw this drawing... I understand...
In the future, I will definitely find an opportunity to ask Chang'an Hou to teach the technique of painting drawings... Yuan Weilei, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, secretly made up his mind in his heart.
When the sun was three poles, Tao Ran also came on horseback, and Rhubarb happily took Tao Ran all the way to the halfway hillside...
Tao Ran came to see the construction progress of the carpenters today...
Second, it is possible that Princess Changle will come to the farm today... After all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said yesterday that he was going to bring her here today...
So Tao Ran brought some ingredients from the restaurant...
In order to find a playmate for Princess Changle, Tao Ran deliberately asked Qianqian and Du Juan to also come in a carriage...
After all, girls have more common language together...
The laborers on the farm have been working for more than half an hour...
Yesterday, more than 300 acres of potatoes were planted, and when Ma Zhou told Tao Ran about the result, Tao Ran was very satisfied...
This proves that these laborers are real croppers...
Tao Ran couldn't treat everyone badly, so he decided to add more fat to everyone's dish today...
Although it is pork, after Tao Ran processed it, it is much more fragrant than beef and mutton... It's also much better...
"Yuan Shilang, you have worked hard carpenters..."Tao Ran said with a bow.
"It's all right, Master Hou's drawings are very good, can you let this official learn and learn?"
Yuan Weilei, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, said with a smile...
"It's all skills passed down from some family teachers, it's rare that Yuan Shilang likes to learn, of course I can teach you..."
Tao Ran responded with a smile...
"Then thank you Master Hou..."Yuan Weilei, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, said with a happy smile.
"This hillside is just about 500 acres, it's really a natural good school..."Tao Ran said as he looked at the entire hillside that had been basically flattened by the carpenters.
"Master Hou really has a good eye, the academy is built here, and the foundation doesn't need to be laid, the natural stone foundation is simply amazing... Only a talented person like Hou Ye can come up with such an idea..."
"Even the materials for the construction of the academy didn't cost a lot of manpower... Stone and wood can be used to go up the mountain... Master Hou is really clever..."
"Brother Huang, is the farm in Chang'an Hou really as fun as you say?"
Princess Changle sat in the carriage and kept shaking the arm of the crown prince Li Chengqian and asked...
"When did the royal brother deceive Lizhi? If it goes on like this, I'll be shaken apart by you..."Prince Li Chengqian smiled and said, "It's coming soon, and you'll see it when you get out of the car..."
"Okay..."Princess Changle pouted...
Anyway, it's hard to get out of the palace today, so it's a good day of fun...
"Master Hou, there's a carriage coming..."Yuan Weilei, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, pointed to the carriage under the mountain and said...
"It must be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Her Royal Highness the Princess, I'm going to greet you... You're busy first..."
Seeing that it was the black-faced Cheng Chumo who was driving the carriage, Tao Ran was sure that it was the prince...
After speaking, Tao Ran stepped on the back of the rhubarb horse and went down the mountain...
Yuan Weilei, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, was instantly messy in the middle of the hill, His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Princess...
The energy of this Chang'an Hou is really not ordinary...
"Chang'anhou, see His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Princess..."Tao Ran arrived at the foot of the mountain and said respectfully to the crown prince Li Chengqian and Princess Changle...
Although he is in front of a ten-year-old and an eight-year-old princess, he is a real prince and princess...
It's impossible not to meet you...
"I know you, the elder sister's brother... Sure enough, as the eldest sister said, Yushu is in the wind, a talent..."
Princess Changle made no secret of the joy on her face...
"In this way, I thank Her Royal Highness the princess for taking care of her, and thank you to the princess..."
"No, I'm learning the craft from Sister Da Ya now, Sister Da Ya's craft is taught by you, if you count it, you are my ancestor..."Princess Changle said with a smile...
Tao Ran's face instantly had a black line, if His Majesty Li Er knew that he had become the ancestor of Princess Changle, it would be strange if he didn't pick his skin...
"Her Royal Highness the princess can't make this joke, and the eldest girl can't be the master of Her Royal Highness the princess, and Weichen can't afford it..."Tao Ran replied seriously...
"You're boring... Brother Huang, take me to see the chickens and fish..."Princess Changle pouted and said...
Tao Ran shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly...
This eight-year-old little princess is so rude, and when she grows up, she will have...
The crown prince Li Chengqian took the princess of Changle Li Lizhi to the pond...
Princess Changle saw the fish jumping on the surface of the water, and danced happily...
"Brother Huang, what you said is true..."Princess Changle said with a happy smile.
