Li You pointed to the location of the copper mine and said: "The copper reserves here are about 300,000 catties, and the annual output is expected to reach 4 million catties. ”

At present, Dexing Copper Mine has an annual output of about 200,000 tons, and 4 million catties is 2,000 tons. The technology on the science and technology library is the most advanced, but the level of equipment is not up to it, as long as it is to increase labor input, with an annual output of 2,000 tons, Li You is still sure.

"What? So much, huh? At this time, the copper output of the whole country in the Tang Dynasty was only 7 million catties.

The crowd was excited.

Next, Li You introduced the associated gold and silver of Dexing Copper Mine, and then introduced the situation of Xigou Iron Mine.

Hearing the huge numbers introduced by Li You, even Gao Jingming, a person who often deals with big numbers, was very surprised.

After introducing the situation of these two mineral deposits, Li You suggested that key mining and construction should be carried out. It can not only rapidly increase the output of steel and copper in Datang, but also cultivate a large number of experienced talents in mining and metallurgy.

He said: "After the practice of the construction of the mining school, this part-time work and study method is a very good way to quickly cultivate talents.

Erchen suggested that the mining school should be used as a basis for a large number of students to exploit and build both deposits. ”

Li Shimin has a broad mind and wants to be the first emperor of the ages. He likes to do big things, and those trivial things don't interest him at all. He was thrilled to hear that these two deposits were so huge.

Not only Li Shimin, but also the ministers of the Tang Dynasty are all in the same problem, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are so happy, in short, they all like to do great things.

For such a good thing, everyone naturally supports it.

After discussions, Li Shimin decided to make great efforts to develop these two mineral deposits and build a smelter on the spot. To this end, two mining schools were established in the region, enrolling 1,200 and 1,000 students respectively. In the local recruitment system, a large number of mining workers are recruited, and the specific number is determined according to demand.

This matter is still in charge of the crown prince Li Chengqian, the research institute is specifically undertaken, and the Ministry of Industry cooperates.

The institute is a place where miracles are constantly created, and the things that are done are always exciting.

There is a unique atmosphere in the institute, integrity, loyalty, friendship, diligence, and full of positive energy, like a magnet, attracting people who enter the institute.

The employees in the institute have a much faster pace of life than people in other departments, and their mental outlook is also very different.

Qiao Haiming fights cocks and lackeys on weekdays and feels good about himself. After entering the graduate school, I realized that I was like an idiot who knew almost nothing.

At first, he was a little tempted to retreat and not be embarrassed here. But seeing that Yu Chi Baoqi is so stupid, and now he has become a jing, he is really unconvinced.

Li You promised Princess Luling to train Qiao Haiming well, and after observing him for a while, he called him to his office.

He said: "Heming, I know how you feel, I wasn't like you before, fighting cocks and lackeys, and those days were really boring. Do something down-to-earth, live a fulfilling life, and have a sense of accomplishment, so that life is meaningful. ”

After Qiao Haiming entered the research institute, he saw everyone's heartfelt admiration for Li You, and he also hoped that he could become such a person. He said honestly: "Brother You, you're right, I also want to do something." Where do you think I should start? ”

Li You said: "I'll give you a suggestion. The institute wants to set up a mining school steel branch in the Xigou Iron Mine in Weinan. The mining school was semi-militarized and no servants were allowed. When you get there, stay away from Chang'an, and everything depends on yourself. That's the real workout for you.

The Iron and Steel School was one of the first people in Datang to learn new technologies in iron ore mining and smelting. In other words, you are the top talents in Datang. When you have a skill that surpasses others, you feel a sense of accomplishment like no other.

In the future, you don't have to be engaged in this industry, but you can also go to the court to be an official. But I believe that this learning experience will be a very valuable experience for you.

In terms of intelligence, you are much stronger than Wei Chi Baoqi. But if you look at people, what is it like now? ”

Qiao Haiming turned out to be unable to look down on Captain Chi Baoqi. But he now found that Wei Chi Baoqi had improved his title by relying on his own efforts, and now he had become an important figure in the research institute, exuding a mature and confident temperament in him, which made him envious.

Princess Luling Mansion

I heard that Qiao Haiming was leaving Chang'an and going to the Xigou Iron Mine in Weinan. Princess Luling felt sorry for her son, so she didn't want him to go.

Qiao Haiming said: "Auntie, what do you think of Li You?" ”

Princess Luling said: "That kid is really amazing now, otherwise I would let you learn from him." ”

Qiao Haiming said: "Ah Niang, what do you think of Yu Chi Baoqi? ”

Princess Luling said: "The stupid son of the Yu Chigong family is also out now. ”

Qiao Haiming said: "Do you think I'm still inferior to Captain Chi Baoqi? The child must surpass Yu Chi Baoqi and become a truly respected person.

It was Li You who suggested that I go to Weinan to study and exercise. He said that I would definitely be able to become a person like Yu Chi Baoqi. Auntie, just let the child go. ”

Princess Luling knew how Li You treated the people around her, she trusted Li You, and hoped that her son could be as promising as Li You. So he agreed to Qiao Haiming's request.

Soon after, Qiao Haiming, Li Jing's eldest grandson Li Hong, and a group of noble children who entered the research institute went to Xigou Iron Mine under the leadership of Li Duan and began their life of internship and entrepreneurship.

Lizheng Palace.

Li Chengqian was a filial child, and he would come every other day to greet the eldest grandson.

Empress Changsun found that Li Chengqian had changed a lot when he came in, and he had become mature and steady, and his eyebrows were full of confidence. Li Chengqian's state is exactly what Empress Changsun and Li Shimin want to see.

In the past, they always hated iron and steel, educated him and blamed him, hoping that he could grow up and mature. However, things backfired, and Li Chengqian's performance was always unsatisfactory.

Now, with the help of Li You, Li Chengqian has continued to study, accumulated a lot of experience in the process of dealing with problems, and cultivated his self-confidence.

Empress Eldest Sun was grateful to Li You from the bottom of her heart.

The two chatted for a while, and Empress Changsun suddenly remembered something, she said: "Cheng Qian, Ling'er wants to work in the research institute, I persuaded her, saying that she will get married soon, otherwise she will go, but she still wants to go." Or, you can tell Li You about it. ”

Li Chengqian said: "The queen mother, Erchen feels that it is not suitable, the third sister is anxious, and it is really inappropriate to be a female official." However, Erchen went to the fifth brother to ask and listen to his opinion. ”

Empress Changsun was very happy when she heard Li Chengqian say this. In the past, if she said anything to Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian always did what she asked, and he had no opinion at all.

Now, Li Chengqian is able to have his own opinions, and he does not contradict her opinions, and things are handled naturally, which shows that Li Chengqian has matured a lot.

She said: "You can do it, if Li You is inconvenient, don't force him." ”

East Palace.

Recently, Li You assisted Li Chengqian in dealing with the urban transformation of Chang'an, and came to the East Palace more frequently.

On this day, Li You came to the East Palace. After Li Chengqian finished talking to him, he said: "Fifth brother, the third sister wants to work in the research institute, she found the queen mother, and the queen mother asked me to ask you, and she specially said that she would not embarrass you." ”

Li You's head grew big when he heard it. Li Leling is anxious and has a big temper. If she goes to the research institute, it will definitely be an aunt, and she will definitely jump and ruin the harmonious atmosphere of the research institute.

Li You said: "Big brother, the younger brother doesn't think it's suitable, the third sister is proud, she really can't do it to be a female official."

I mean, you can give the third sister a name in the research institute, receive a salary, and don't go to work.

Wanyu and her family set up an orphanage, and now Wanyu has to go to work every day, so she can't take care of those orphans.

If the third sister is idle and bored, she can go to help, taking care of the child is a meticulous job, you can sharpen her temperament, and it is also an exercise for the third sister to take the child in the future. ”

Li Chengqian said: "You think the same as mine, the third sister can't be a female official, just according to your wishes, I'll tell her." ”

The next morning, Li You was compiling the textbooks of the Iron and Steel Branch, when he heard the white tiger outside say: "Your Royal Highness Princess, you are here, and the little one will go and say hello to the prince." ”

"No need, I'll just go see the fifth brother myself." It's Li Leling here.

Li You shook his head with a wry smile, and said in his heart: "Li Chengqian, this guy, still kicked the ball to me." ”

At this time, Li Leling came in, and when she saw Li You, she said directly: "Fifth brother, what do you mean, you dislike me, right?" ”

Li You smiled: "Third sister, what are you talking about, how can I dislike you?" ”

Li Leling said: "Brother Prince, he has already told you, you don't agree with me to come to work in the research institute." ”

Li You said: "I said it. Third sister, I don't think it's appropriate for you to come here. ”

Li Leling said: "Why is it not suitable? She pointed to Xiao Wanyu, who came to pour tea for her, and said, "They can come, why can't I come?" ”

Li You said: "It's different. They are female officers. What do female officers do? Waiter. Who are you? You are a dignified princess of the Tang Dynasty, how can you do such a thing? ”

Li Leling still likes to hear this. But she still didn't think it was right. She said, "Then there is nothing else to do in your research institute?" Can't you just give me something to do? People stay in the palace all day long, panicking. ”

Li You said: "Didn't I tell the prince's brother, if you want." Can help me take care of the children in the orphanage. It's cute, it's a child. ”

Li Leling said: "I haven't seen the child, I can't do it." ”

Li You said, "You didn't try it, how do you know you can't do it?" In this way, it just so happens that I have been sitting for a long time, and I am also a little annoyed. I'll go with you, and you should go for a walk. If you don't like it, just don't go in the future. ”

"Okay then." Li Leling said.

Guangde Fang.

Li You and Xiao Wanyu accompanied Li Leling into Guangdefang, preparing to go to the orphanage, and soon after entering the gate, they met Hamid's personal entourage.

When he saw Li You, he rode over and said, "Your Royal Highness the King of Qi, my master is about to ask the little one to invite you over."
