The eldest grandson Chong didn't seem to understand, and Li Mu didn't explain too much, and now was not the time to fully express his purpose. Moreover, if you want to be a beacon of one's thoughts, it is impossible to forcibly infuse it, it has to be imperceptible, so that he wants to do it from the heart.

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, the day after the Shangyuan Festival. Li Mu's holy decree of concurrently serving as a squire of the household department was officially notified to various places, so far, Li Mu's official title has become, the minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the minister in charge of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs concurrently serves as the head of the household department and the Ministry of Industry, although the title is still a marquis, but he has a son of a prince, who dares to see him as a marquis?

In addition to military power, Li Mu is actually the first person in Datang to hold real power in the economy.

At present, the Tang Dynasty Hall is a bit of a 'three-legged' trend. The military, nominally headed by Hou Junji, the secretary of the Ministry of War, but in the hearts of everyone, the recognized first person in the military is still Li Jing, and as long as he is alive, his status cannot be shaken. In the political circles, the eldest grandson Wuji is the leader, even if Fang Xuanling is a scholar, but everyone understands that Li Shimin's most trusted person is his brother-in-law.

On the economic side, the so-called 'financial world', Li Mu succeeded in creating an internal government completely detached from any system by separating the inner treasury from the treasury. Today, the income of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is already as much as the original treasury. This year, there is one more Foreign Affairs Bureau, which has taken over part of the power of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and intercepted the profits that originally belonged to smuggling, and in the foreseeable future, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will definitely become another money bag of Datang, just like the current Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Controlling the internal and external governments, and supervising the most profitable Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Collecting Taxes today, Li Mu is not the God of Wealth of the Tang Dynasty, who is? Especially now that Datang implements a budget system, every yamen is living a tight life, what should I do if I can't make ends meet? You have to find the God of Wealth, right? Li Mu's status has become more and more transcendent as a result, and whether the yamen's life this year is more comfortable or tighter, it is completely under his control.

Li Mu originally planned to leave for Luoyang after the Shangyuan Festival. But now that the Lantian County development plan has been implemented, he himself has not been to Lantian County once, how can this be like words, so Li Mu postponed the trip back to Luoyang for ten days, and planned to use these ten days to make a complete investigation of Lantian County.

On this trip, Li Mu brought 200 Jinyi guards. There had never been any bandits in Lantian, and two hundred people were enough to deal with all kinds of scenes, not to mention that they were also equipped with the latest repeaters. In addition to the two hundred guards, Li Mu also brought the coolies who were sheltered in Chang'an City and the craftsmen allocated by the Ministry of Works, which were two or three hundred people, and there were four or five hundred people.

Li Mu originally just wanted to bring a few people, but when he saw such a long line, he instantly had a little headache.

But it can't be helped, who let the matter be found by himself? had to bite the bullet, Li Mu was going to Lantian County, and Wang Ou and Mrs. Lu were going to leave for Luoyang. Mrs. Lu's 'base camp' is in Luoyang, and she has a lot to deal with when she goes back. Although now because of various interests, there has been a lot of reconciliation with Li Shimin. But after all, there is still a certain distance between everyone and complete trust. In the enemy camp, it is better to stay less.

Wang Ou was completely to avoid suspicion, she was thinking about Li Mu's feelings. Although she deliberately avoided meeting Li Shimin when she returned to Luoyang this time, she knew in her heart that Li Shimin did not give up the idea of beating her. She couldn't change Li Shimin's mind, all she could do was to stay away from him.

And Qiaoqiao, Li Zhien, Jin Chen, and Zhang Tianai all stayed in Chang'an. Qiaoqiao is because of Feng Qiuhuang's inventory, she hasn't looked at the account book for a year, and the four big girls of Meilan Zhuju begged her to take a look. Li Zhien has always been where she is, but this time in addition to this reason, there is another reason. The matter of the civil strife in Silla has reached the ears of Li Shimin. The situation of Silla directly affects Li Shimin's use of troops against Goguryeo, so some details still have to be asked about Li Zhien from time to time, and at the same time, Li Zhien's identity is also a point that can be used, Li Shimin is considering whether to accept Li Zhien as a righteous daughter, so that when he fights Goguryeo, he can hold high the banner of righteousness, firstly, for the revenge of the vassal state, and secondly, for the revenge of the righteous daughter, the hatred of the country and the family, is not it a righteous teacher?

Zhang Tianai was also going back to Luoyang, but the reason why he didn't go back was that the Gaochang mission arrived in Chang'an before the Shangyuan Festival and offered Li Shimin a tribute from Persia. Among the people who came, there were many people from Zhangjiazhai, and Zhang Tianai missed these people, so she stayed for a few days, and when the Gaochang delegation returned, she would go back to Luoyang.

Li Mu went to Lantian this time, bringing Wei Yingluo. He has already gone to see Wei Zheng, and when he got out of the first month, he gave a dowry, and this time he went to Lantian on official business, and there was absolutely no reason for any personal relationship, and what kind of cultivation of feelings was definitely not like that.

Li Mu patted his ass and ran away, and all the people who wanted to stop him from talking about cement were hung up. These people didn't dare to chase after them, so they had to get together and discuss with each other.

……

No one knew that Wang Jue had sneaked back to Chang'an. Of course, his younger brother Wang Pu also came back with him. They did not return to Wang Jue's mansion, but found an inconspicuous small courtyard and rented it. This time, Wang Jue risked disobeying the holy decree to come to Chang'an, just because he was in a hurry. He came to block Wang Ou, and wanted Wang Ou to help the Taiyuan Wang family, say good things in front of Li Mu, and hope to invest in the cement factory. But Wang Ou didn't see them, and returned to Luoyang, making it clear that he didn't want to care, Wang Jue had no choice but to sigh, because the rest for days was not good, and his eyes were black, as if he was about to be terminally ill.

"Big brother, why do you think this Hou Ye is so powerful?" After three glasses of wine, Wang Pu's face turned red, Wang Jue glanced at him, and said, "If you can't drink it, don't drink it, it's easy to go wrong when you drink too much." ”

"What kind of stubble can our brothers have!" Wang Pu disagreed, and continued to mutter: "The coal has been piled in the soil for thousands of years, and everyone has not taken it seriously. Hou Ye invented the clay kang and used it at once. Especially in our Taiyuan, who doesn't have a soil kang? There is coal everywhere, isn't it better than going up the mountain to fetch firewood?

He drank too much and talked a lot: "Now in Lantian County, where birds don't, I have found cement worth a thousand gold, where is this reasonable, big brother, you say that he will not really be the reincarnation of the gods in the sky, right?" ”

"Hahaha." Wang Jue scolded and said, "What nonsense? The sage cloud 'Zi is silent and strange and chaotic', just stay away, say a lot of mistakes, can you afford to offend the gods? ”

Saying that, he guessed: "But you also have a point, Li Mu is really a magical thing on his body." ”

"I can't guess!" Wang Pu sighed thoughtfully, and asked: "Big brother, you said, is the current share of the cement plant more valuable than Datang Mining in our hands?" ”

"It's worth a lot of money!" Wang Jue said without hesitation: "Coal, although we have a lot there." But there are no other places, everywhere, we are just good to dig, but you don't forget, coal is a simple thing to dig out, difficult to transport, once the freight exceeds the excavation fee, this thing is no one to buy. ”

"But cement, but it's the only one in the world! Just this point, whoever takes the stock of Datang Mining and exchanges it with me, I won't exchange it with him! Wang Qi said and said in a low voice: "Besides, what value can the coal business have in addition to making some money?" The beauty of the cement business is great. Even if it doesn't make money, it's worth more, it's worth more! ”

"Why?" Wang Pu asked dumbfounded.

"Because its value to businessmen is secondary, and its value to officials is as great as heaven!" I only heard Wang Jue uncontrollably excited: "What kind of cement is this?" This is a panacea that will leave a name in history! ”

Seeing that Wang Pu was at a loss, Wang Jue looked like he hated iron but not steel, and explained: "Why don't you understand? For officials, is it cement? That's clearly a blind political achievement! ”

"In all the states, counties and counties in the world, which official doesn't want to leave political achievements? However, not to mention the high cost and high risk of the project, the key is that it takes a long time, often for several years. ”

"There are many variables after a long time, and the most disturbing thing is that it is almost finished, and you have to move someone else's place after a paper order. As a result, it became a wedding dress for others. How many officials do you say can make up their minds to do it? ”

Wang Pushen nodded thoughtfully, isn't his political achievements in Linyi just making wedding dresses for others? Although this other person is also the son of their Taiyuan Wang family.

"But this thing is cement, God! Fast and sturdy! With it, as long as the number is enough, a house can be built in two days! With real political achievements, who can stop you from being promoted? ”

"Uh-huh." Wang Pu nodded like pecking rice and said: "Big brother is reasonable, but now, it is clear that there is no part of us, what can we do?" ”

"Don't be embarrassed, apologize!." Wang Jue said very resolutely, and said: "If you can get cement, it is to get a talisman to stabilize the foundation, with cement, even if our Taiyuan Wang family holds it, otherwise more than ten years later, there will still be a place for our Taiyuan Wang family in the world?" Seeing that Wang Pu was at a loss, Wang Jue looked like he hated iron but not steel, and explained: "Why don't you understand? For officials, is it cement? That's clearly a blind political achievement! ”
