Li Su said with a smile: "This is the mineral resources I said last time, Datang has coal mines, and the reserves are huge, and it is said that Chang'an City is inexhaustible in the entire Datang." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Really?" Li Shimin became excited again.

Li Su also introduced them to other functions of coal, such as iron smelting and steelmaking, and the residue can also be used as a material for concrete.

Li Shimin waved his hand and said: "Organize development immediately, and vigorously develop." ”

At this time, Wei Zheng frowned and said, "It's good to have these things, but what about the people who used to make a living by collecting firewood and burning charcoal?" How can their livelihood problems be solved? That's a lot of people? ”

Li Shimin was poured with cold water and felt a little headache. He pondered, wondering where to allocate land to settle the people.

Li Su said: "It's not a difficult thing. The development of coal mines also requires a large number of manpower. Among them, the coal mine itself, transportation, production of honeycomb coal and other links require a large number of manpower.

The Kyo Zhao Yin and Kannai Provincial Governments can be asked to register the people who make a living by collecting firewood and burning charcoal. Those who are willing to engage in the coal industry will be given priority. ”

Li Shimin's eyes lit up and said, "Okay, let's do it." He continued: "Where is this coal mine, is there near Chang'an City?" ”

Li Su said: "There is no near Chang'an City, there are in the surrounding counties, but Erchen wants to go to Yinzhou (the area around Yulin, Shaanxi), where the coal resources are among the top reserves of the Tang Dynasty, and there are other mineral deposits, if my father is determined to develop them, there can be a large mining base there." ”

Li Shimin is so happy to do things, but he thinks that things are small, and when he heard that he can do a big job, he immediately came to the spirit, and he said: "Do it, you can do as much as you can." ”

Datang Ministry of Industry.

King Liang is going out. When the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Huang Fu Rui released the news, the officials of the Ministry of Industry immediately boiled.

Everyone knows that following this King Liang on a business trip is definitely a beautiful difference, not only with a business trip subsidy, but also with food enjoyment, as well as the opportunity for promotion. Anyone who has followed the prince on an errand, as long as you can enter the eyes of the prince, there will be a good position waiting for you.

The prince is constantly making new things, and he is constantly adding new positions, all of which are related to the economy. The chances of the announced officials being promoted to the level have also increased significantly.

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu Huang Fu Rui is in a very good mood, not long ago, the Highway Department, the Patent Office, and now the Mining Department has been established. According to Liang Wang, this mining department alone needs a large number of officials, and the right to recommend is also given to him as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.

The other ministries of the imperial court were overwhelmed, and the imperial court tried their best to reduce them. Only the positions in the Ministry of Industry have increased in large numbers, and people come to Huang Furui every day to plead with him. Receiving some gifts is secondary, the key is that it feels good to be asked.

As soon as Shang Shuhuang entered the office, he was surrounded by officials, large and small, and everyone wanted to follow King Liang on a business trip.

On this trip to Yinzhou, King Liang gave 50 places to the Ministry of Industry. As we all know, these 50 people, as long as their performance is similar, will be the main officials of the Mining Department in the future, which is a great opportunity for promotion. Therefore, everyone has to squeeze in when they break their heads.

Prince Li Chengqian is also in a good mood, and recently he has installed a lot of people in the Ministry of Industry, all of whom are members of the imperial court or the sons of nobles, which has added a lot of contacts to him.

Tai Chi Temple.

After the morning of this day, Li Shimin was about to go out, but was stopped by Chi Gong, the lieutenant of Zhongwu of the Eguo State.

Chi Gong, the general of the right military Hou, is one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion.

Wei Chigong is simple and loyal, brave and good at fighting, and has fought all his life, conquering the north and south, galloping on the battlefield, and making many military exploits. During the Xuanwumen Change, he helped Li Shimin seize the throne and saved Li Shimin more than once.

He is 48 years old this year, and he looks good. In the past, the door god posted at the door of the people's house was him and Qin Shubao, and the most ugly one with teeth and claws was Wei Chigong.

Li Shimin asked with a smile: "Jingde (Wei Chigong's character), is there something wrong?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister wants to ask you for one thing. Chen's second son, Yu Chi Baoqi, is 15 years old this year, and Chen wants him to come out to do things, please make arrangements. Wei Chigong said.

Li Shimin said: "It's a good thing, let's say, do you want to join that unit?" ”

Wei Chigong said: "That kid wants to enter the research institute." ”

Li Shimin smiled: "Didn't that kid of yours learn martial arts from you?" How do you want to enter the research institute, it is a place where literati gather. ”

Wei Chigong said: "The minister has fought with the emperor all his life, and his eldest son Baolin is also a military general. The minister wanted Bao Qi to change careers. Besides, Bao Qi thought about entering the research institute. The minister also wanted him to learn from His Royal Highness King Liang. ”

"Okay, you just go directly to King Liang, and say that I agreed to let Baoqi enter the research institute." Li Shimin said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yu Chigong said happily.

Soon after, the Institute.

Chi Gong, the commander of the Zhongwu Gong of the Eguo State, led his son Chi Baoqi and asked to see Li Su, the king of Liang.

Li Su asked, "E Guozhong, who are you?" ”

Wei Chigong said: "Your Highness, the minister begged the emperor, and he has agreed, let the minister's son Baoqi go to the research institute to follow His Highness and learn some skills." Could you please arrange it? ”

Then, he said to his son Yu Chi Baoqi: "I have seen His Royal Highness King Liang soon. ”

Yu Chi Baoqi stepped forward to salute King Liang and said, "Yu Chi Baoqi has seen His Royal Highness King Liang. ”

Li Su looked at Yu Chi Baoqi's appearance, and couldn't help but laugh.

Yu Chi Baoqi is about the same size as Du He, and his appearance is not as good-looking as his father Yu Chi Gong, or even more ugly than his father. Wei Chigong's two wives are known as black and white, but they are all beauties.

It seems that Yu Chigong's genes are too strong, and Yu Chi Baoqi has not been stained with the light of his beautiful mother.

Li Su said: "Okay, you can rest assured, let Baoqi come to work tomorrow." ”

Yu Chi Gong said to Yu Chi Baoqi: "You kid, follow His Highness to do a good job, if you don't obey, go home and beat you to death." ”

"Got it, father." Yu Chi Baoqi said.

The next morning, the Institute.

As soon as Li Su was at the gate, he heard a fight inside, and there were people cheering on the side. He went in and looked, and was happy.

I saw Du He and Yu Chi Baoqi, pulling the shelf, and they were fighting there. Cheng Chumo and others cheered on the side.

This person is afraid of comparison, he used to see Du He, and felt that he looked sorry for the audience, but now put him and Yu Chi Baoqi together, Du He is definitely a jade-faced Xiaolangjun.

Yu Chi Baoqi has been practicing martial arts with his father Wei Chi Gong since he was a child, and he has learned a good skill, and he has a fight with Du He, and the two have a lively fight.

Li Su asked someone to move a chair and sit down to watch the battle.
