Chapter 634: Poor Gao Shilian
After Qin Tian left the palace, he returned directly to the mansion.
Immediately afterwards, he found a few subordinates and asked them to go to Qinjia Village to open a briquette factory and play briquettes.
The subordinates were ordered to retreat, and at the same time, Li Shimin had a kind of stove and briquettes, which also spread in Chang'an City.
This kind of thing is indeed not as warm as the ondol, but it is much easier and cheaper than the ondol.
In addition, Li Shimin uses it, and the upper part is good, and the lower part will be effective, so the ministers of the court and the central government also want to use stoves and briquettes.
First, I am curious, and secondly, I also expressed to Li Shimin that in fact, these people are also of the same mind as Li Shimin, and for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, they are also living frugally.
Hundreds of officials followed suit, and they all couldn't help but go to Qin Tian to ask for it.
On this day, as soon as Qin Tian arrived in Shangshu Province, a group of colleagues rushed over.
"Master Hou, I heard that you got a kind of stove, what kind of briquettes are burned, is it easy to use?"
"Master Hou, I heard that this thing is used by the saints, is it expensive?"
"Master Hou, do you sell this thing?"
Everyone was gossiping, Qin Tian smiled: "This thing is not expensive, it is also easy to use, not only cooking fast, but also saving coal, when cooking and boiling water, just open the opening below, this will burn faster, if you don't use it, just plug the opening, so that you don't need coal......"
Qin Tian muttered and explained to these people, and after everyone heard it, they were very happy and hurriedly said that they wanted to buy it.
For this, Qin Tian naturally would not refuse, no matter what reason these people bought it, as long as they bought it, they would have money to earn.
In fact, the stove is not expensive, and the briquettes are not expensive, but no matter how expensive it is, you have to burn three or four pieces a day, so that over time, there will be more.
After the officials bought it, those people also asked about the price, and after hearing that it was not expensive, they did not hesitate, but if they had the conditions, they basically bought stoves and briquettes and went back.
Although Cheng Yanjin and these people have warm kangs, they are curious, so they all buy them.
And after they bought these and went back, they were somewhat relieved.
"It seems that this kid Qin Tian has given up the conscription system, this is a good thing, a good thing for us, and a good thing for him."
"Yes, yes, everyone can breathe a sigh of relief, what should they do in the future."
“…………”
There are rumors of briquettes everywhere in Chang'an City, and Qinjia Village is a little busy.
And on the third day after Qin Tian gave Li Shimin the stove and briquettes, Li Shimin called Gao Shilian into the palace.
In the past two days, Gao Shilian was in a bad mood and his face was very bad.
After entering the imperial study, his face turned very pale because of the cold.
"Holy Lord, Xuanchen entered the palace, I don't know what happened?"
"Gao Aiqing, there is one thing, I may need your help tomorrow morning."
"Don't dare to say anything about help, if there is anything in the saint, just give me a direct order."
Gao Shilian didn't realize the danger, and what he said just now was just a follow, after all, in the face of a genius like Li Shimin, he could only say this, but Li Shimin's side showed a subtle sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"That's the case, my Datang army is not strong, I am going to gather all the government soldiers together for some training, Gao Aiqing will mention it tomorrow."
At first hearing, there seemed to be no problem, Gao Shilian subconsciously wanted to come down, but just when he was about to open his mouth to come down, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
When the soldiers and farmers are not working, they will conduct training, and this does not need to be mentioned separately, but why did Li Shimin ask him to mention it, is it fraud or because of other reasons?
Gao Shilian raised his head slightly, his mind was very chaotic in the past two days, so his brain was a little swollen, and he thought that things were not very organized.
"Holy Lord, do you still need to mention this matter, now many government soldiers have begun to go to the military camp for training, right?"
Seeing that Gao Shilian found something unusual, Li Shimin's cheeks twitched, and then said: "That's the case, maybe two years later, when my Tang cavalry is completed, I will use troops against the Turks, so in the past two years, I want to improve the combat ability of the government soldiers, and they will receive two years of training in the military camp. ”
Hearing that the soldiers were going to undergo two years of training in the barracks, Gao Shilian suddenly frowned.
There are a lot of government soldiers, some of them belong to the national government, and some of them don't, but whether they belong or don't, it's a bit unrealistic to let them stay in the barracks for two years, right?
If he really mentions it, whether it is the government soldiers or those princes, he has to hate him to death.
The government soldiers are sometimes the unpaid labor of the national government.
"Holy Lord, I'm afraid that I can't mention this matter."
Faced with Li Shimin's unreasonable demand, Gao Shilian could only refuse.
He is not a fool, how could he do something that offends so many people, and the people he offends are all powerful and princes.
Li Shimin saw that Gao Shilian refused, and couldn't help but show a sneer again.
"Ling Gongzi has been okay for the past two days?"
This is very polite, it stands to reason that Li Shimin can just say your son directly, but he still said Ling Gongzi, as soon as Gao Shilian heard this, his expression suddenly became a little flustered.
Obviously, the Ling Gongzi in Li Shimin's mouth refers to his eldest son Gao Cheng, and he has been a little restless recently because of his son's affairs.
His son, who was a little shy, went to the street two days ago and fell in love with a woman, so he couldn't help but say that he had rushed back to the house, but who would have thought that the woman was a chaste martyr, and would rather die than obey, so he bit his tongue and committed suicide.
His son got into a big disaster, but he used a lot of connections and spent a lot of money to finally press it.
But as long as this matter is exposed, no one can protect his son.
Li Shimin suddenly mentioned Gao Shimin at this time, but he was afraid that he knew something, Gao Shilian raised his head slightly and glanced at Li Shimin, and he saw cunning in Li Shimin's eyes.
That is a kind of cunning that everything is already under his control, or rather, he Gao Shilian is now just a chess piece, a chess piece, and he has no choice of where he is in power.
But he was not willing to be a chess piece.
"Holy Lord, the dog is fine." Gao Shilian pretended to be stupid, pretending not to understand Li Shimin's meaning, but Li Shimin suddenly smiled: "Maybe it won't be good soon." ”
"Holy ......"
Li Shimin pouted: "What does Gao Aiqing think of tomorrow morning?" ”
Li Shimin is too lazy to speak, if he wants his son to be fine, it is better to learn to be smarter, people, they always have to go through this or that exchange.
Sometimes, people just keep choosing.
The imperial study was quiet, and after a long time, Gao Shilian finally made a decision: "For the sake of my Tang Dynasty, how dare the minister slack off, tomorrow morning, the minister should be down." ”
Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction.
