Chapter 40: The Return of the Celestial River
Chapter 40 Comes Again to the Celestial River
The sample of the improved bed crossbow sent by Li Tao responded to the supervisor: a large number of such parts were purchased.
Fang Xuanling's letter to the eldest grandson also arrived.
Because the matter involved this time was related to the fate of the country according to Changsun Tang, plus the bed crossbow and gunpowder, this made His Majesty Li Er and Fang Xuanling have to be cautious, so they had to contact Changsun Tang in this way to hide people's ears.
In his heart, he praised the eldest grandson in his heart, and the eldest grandson who read the letter in front of Li Tao was a little puzzled.
"Uncle Li, who is this letter talking about? Do I know each other? The eldest grandson asked.
"You can use these words as paper to wipe your ass, it's better than paper to wipe your ass." Li Tao is deeply touched, this room is connected to write a letter to his subordinates, it is difficult to think about this popularity, Li Tao is also deeply affected, every time he receives this kind of letter from Fang Xuanling, he has a headache for a long time.
"Oh, that's right. I thought it was for someone else. Changsun Yu said.
"Hey, who doesn't have a young age, who hasn't had the experience of being fooled by these old things a few times, it's all tears." Li Tao has some empathy.
"Then what does it mean that I will go to Tuntian and then hand over the affairs of the steel plant to you?"
"Oh, we've both been pitted by these old foxes, you've been doing it for a long time, and this bit of merit has been fooled with those hard papers that wipe your butts, I'm going to take over your mess, hey, people have to bow their heads under the eaves!" The sound is getting lower and lower.
"Oh, uncle, then this ......" Changsun Tang finally read this obscure letter again, this letter in classical Chinese is really not read by people, first, it is not easy to break sentences without punctuation, and secondly, this literati likes to play with some allusions, so that Changsun Tang read it twice and did not understand it too clearly.
However, when the eldest grandson raised his head and was about to ask for advice again, this Li Tao was nowhere to be found.
In the past, the eldest grandson had engaged in various escapes such as urine escape, meal escape, etc., and today he learned a trick called taking advantage of the unpreparedness of people to escape directly.
Now the eldest grandson understands that this beautifully worded letter completely pitted him, and the industrial plan that he had been planning for so long actually saved the fruit that was picked up by Li Tao like this.
"Eldest grandson, my lord has some urgent matters to deal with, and now I really can't get out of it, please go back first today, and when my lord is free, he will come to visit in person." The butler of the British Mansion was waiting at the door, not waiting for the eldest grandson to ask, just like that.
"Hmph, bring a message to your master, don't let me run into him in Chang'an......" Changsun Tang still wanted to say some cruel words, but he really didn't know what to say, let alone break Li Tao's leg, Li Tao now breaking his leg is at most a few years of fine.
Today, this Li Tao said a big truth: people have to bow their heads under the eaves.
The eldest grandson's teeth itched, but there was no better way.
In fact, this is also the best result for the eldest grandson.
It is not impossible if Changsun Tang insists that this steel plant is in his hands, but then his future has already been predetermined - the industrial pioneer of the Tang Empire and the head of the world's largest steel complex at that time.
As for going any further, it is simply impossible, and it is impossible for a country to put several important lifelines under the control of a single person or a family.
At this time, it seems that the withdrawal from the steel mill that has been created has been completed seems to be a loss, but sometimes it is a blessing to suffer a loss. Taking a step back, what the sea and the sky are talking about is the current situation of Changsun Tang.
Although there are no practical benefits, this is an invisible talisman, as long as the eldest grandson is not involved in rebellion, he is basically rich and worry-free.
There is no promise here, but this information is clearly revealed from Fang Xuanling's letter. Fang Xuanling does not have this authority, so it can only be that His Majesty Li Er is a face-to-face teaching.
Li Tao didn't deliberately dodge, as one of the old foxes, if he couldn't even see this, he would be in vain, all of this can be said to be testing Changsun Tang's reaction.
It's time for Changsun Tang to leave, since he decided to let go, don't procrastinate, this is not Changsun Tang's character, and it is not in the interests of Changsun Tang.
Procrastination during the handover of work can be said to be a taboo in officialdom, are you preparing to install cronies to empty the new arrivals or for some other purpose, so Wang Xuance came forward for the handover work, and Zhang Zhong was a little unable to cope with this kind of occasion.
The last time I set off from here, there were only a few people and a few horses, but this time it really won't work, because there are family members accompanying me, of course, it is not the family of Changsun Tang for the time being, it seems that it is still Wang Xuance's, but it will be really difficult to say after a while.
Last time, it only took about ten days for the four of them to arrive at the Eilechuan, but this time it really took a month.
Why So Long?
You let me go in such a hot weather, didn't you want me to die of heat?
Therefore, the daily itinerary of Changsun Tang and his entourage is as follows: set off early in the morning, rest before noon, and look at the situation in the afternoon, if the next post station is far away, he will not leave.
In this way, it took a month to rush to the clouds, which made the eldest grandson feel that time was a little too fast, and the theory of relativity did not deceive me.
Not far from the clouds is the vast Eile River.
Although it is June, when the sun is shining, the weather here is still relatively cool, and you need to add clothes in the morning and evening.
At this time, the Eilechuan was very different from the last time Changsun Yu came.
The green grass that has not passed the horse's hooves spreads out like a green skirt to the earth, why is it a skirt and not a carpet? Eldest Sun Tang's heart chuckled.
The boundless green is dotted with all kinds of flowers, the flowers on the grassland are not as graceful and rich as peonies, nor are they as dark and fragrant as osmanthus, and they are not as far-reaching as lilies, they are just trying to grow upward, and the most beautiful side of themselves and the grassland is completely dressed up with his small body, and many flowers do not even have names......
At this time, it is also the season when merchants on the grassland are more active, especially in the area of Eilechuan. When the autumn wind turns the land yellow in August, the road is at its busiest.
There are really no roads on the grassland, and there are no obvious references, just discern the direction and follow the rut marks pressed out by the road ahead.
Miss Wang has long lost the interest she had when she first saw the grassland, and she didn't go out and walk around, but sat in the carriage one day, observing the endless sky and earth through the car window, and the distant place where she couldn't tell whether it was heaven or earth......
