Chapter 5: Another Greeting

In fact, Li Yuanjia himself knows very well in his heart, not to mention the next few years, more than ten years, even if he can't get out of that small valley for a lifetime, it is nothing for most craftsmen.

For the people of this era...... No, it should be said that for most eras of Chinese history, the number of people who can live a lifetime to get out of the state and county where they were born is absolutely minimal. Except for special needs such as weddings and funerals, most people will never leave their villages for the rest of their lives.

On the one hand, it is because of the control of the government, and on the other hand, there is no such demand!

Tall horses, as well as slow cattle, are extremely valuable resources in this era. The former is expensive, and the latter is the main force of farming, and they have to take care of it with good food and drink on weekdays. Not to mention that the roads around Chang'an are all scum in Li Yuanjia's eyes, and the local dirt road situation can naturally be imagined.

Just go to a place a little farther away, and I'm afraid it will take several days to walk by Eleven Road!

So for the average person, a small village is enough for them to live a lifetime. Although the valley where the glass workshop is located is not large, if you strictly calculate the area, it is actually not smaller than an ordinary village, and the scenery of mountains and rivers is quite good!

As long as the living conditions keep up, there are naturally a large number of people who are willing to stay inside.

It's just that even if he understands this, Li Yuanjia still can't avoid thinking about things with the way of thinking of a future person, so after making the decision that the valley must be tightly sealed and the craftsmen are not allowed to go out, it is reasonable to increase their substitution encounters......

To put it simply, it's just to spend more money and ask for psychological comfort.

And, this money is also a problem?

Every time he thinks of the huge market potential of glass mirrors, and the possible duration of Han Wangfu's exclusive secret in this era, Li Yuanjia suddenly feels that he doesn't have any scruples about money at all - although the benefits of sea salt are even greater, Li Yuanjia doesn't dare to do it, just sell the technology for some money, but glass and mirrors are the top luxuries, and they are the most suitable for a prince like him to do, and it would be stupid not to do it......

……

"King, what is so happy?"

Even the day after returning to the Han Wangfu in the city, Li Yuanjia couldn't help but laugh when he thought of the third batch of glass mirrors that had already been made, and even ate breakfast a little absent-mindedly. Seeing that Li Yuanjia was still smiling from time to time, Fang Fengzhu finally couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart, and asked with a wink: "This is the case since I came back last night, and it is like this early this morning...... Could it be that there is something good that cannot be made in the workshops outside the city? ”

What can make the king so happy, except for those, there seems to be nothing else, right?

"Uh......"

Stunned for a moment, Li Yuanjia quickly put away his thoughts, shook his head and smiled: "It's nothing, it's just a little progress in the glass workshop...... Hehe, am I acting obviously? ”

"Of course, you haven't closed this mouth since you came back!"

Blinking again, Fang Fengzhu was obviously a little unconvinced. She knows her husband too well, and knows that although Li Yuanjia is not very old, his temperament is as stable as his old father, if it is just a little progress, how can he be so happy?

"Okay, don't ask."

Li Yuanjia didn't want to deceive his wife, so he waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's really a good thing, but it's ...... Now is not the time to take it out, you will know it in a while...... Well, I'll give you a good thing when the time comes, and you're guaranteed to like it! ”

It's not that he deliberately wants to hide from Fang Fengzhu, it's really that the mirror hasn't been born yet.

Especially Fang Fengzhu is still a woman......

This may sound like nonsense, but as a person in the future, Li Yuanjia is too aware of a mirror...... How lethal a glass mirror can clearly illuminate a person's face is to a woman! What's more, Fang Fengzhu is still a beautiful woman, a young beautiful woman, and this lethality can be said to have increased exponentially by a geometric magnitude!

One can imagine how she reacted when she received the mirror!

And the woman ...... Especially young women are also the most difficult to keep secrets.

Once Fang Fengzhu gets the mirror, Li Yuanjia is almost certain that she will immediately take it to her club to show off! If Li Yuanjia allows, she will definitely immediately link the right to purchase the glass mirror with the members of the club - it will be Zhenguan for 14 years, and the club will also enter the stage of charging membership fees and non-members are not allowed to enter, Fang Fengzhu is having a headache during this time!

Unless Li Yuanjia clearly tells his princess, this thing must not be spread!

But in that case, the little girl's heart will be uncomfortable.

There are good things that must be hidden and tucked, and it is obviously possible to show off to a group of Chang'an ladies, but you can only hide things in the house and enjoy them alone, this taste......

So after thinking about it, Li Yuanjia felt that it would be better to wait for a while.

"Well, who made me ask for the second child now?"

Remembering the first mirror...... At least the first mirror to appear in public, he must be dedicated to Li Laoer, not to his wife, Li Yuanjia is very happy in his heart.

But there was no way, as I said just now, she was even more uncomfortable with Fang Fengzhu.

So it's better to wait for a while, and after making sure that this technology is indeed mature, Li Yuanjia can give Li Shimin a few mirrors, and then urge him to quickly make up his mind - as soon as he thought of being able to pull the emperor to do business with him, and he was also the famous Tang Taizong Li Shimin in history, the little unhappiness in his heart immediately disappeared.

And......

"That day is the core key!"

Thinking of his plan, Li Yuanjia glanced at the princess with great guilt, and then grabbed her little hand and said softly: "Don't worry, I will definitely leave you the best ...... when the time comes."

"Huh? What's best? ”

"Uh......"

"Gotcha! Gotta get it! ”

Just when the corners of Li Yuanjia's mouth twitched, and he was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to reply, the door was suddenly knocked on from the outside.

Then Han Lucheng walked in, bowed down and said, "King, King Wu sent someone to send another post!" ”

"King Wu? Li Ke? ”

After hearing this name, Li Yuanjia frowned suddenly: "I only returned to Chang'an last night, and that kid sent someone to send a prayer post today...... Hehe, this news is really well-informed! ”

“……”

Hearing the king's words, Han Lucheng's eyelids jumped twice, and he didn't dare to answer.

This kind of talk is not something that his little butler can answer.

After thinking for a while, Li Yuanjia waved his hand and said, "Okay, tell them that I will be in the house these days, and if King Wu wants to come, he can come at any time......"
