Chapter 351: If you want to get rich, build roads first

Li Zhi never saw Li Qinzai's Zhuangzi outside, as if he had returned to his harem, and it was always the Great Lama who regarded himself as his master.

Junchen stood at the door, Li Zhi squatted down and pinched Buck's face, and was about to tease him, but a figure in the gate rushed out and quickly knelt in front of Li Zhi.

"Minister, Li Yuanying meets Your Majesty and the Queen."

Li Zhi was taken aback, subconsciously took a step back, looked at it, and his face couldn't help but turn a little colder.

"Uncle Teng? Why are you here? Li Zhi asked in his mouth, but his eyes glanced at Li Qinzai.

Li Qinzai sighed helplessly: "...... Iniquity. ”

King Teng was not in the mood to deal with Li Qinzai at this time, and lowered his head and said: "The courtier's daughter Jinxiang County Lord and Li County's wife have been friends for many years. ”

Li Zhi sighed, didn't say anything, and owed a greeting and greetings to King Teng, looked at Li Qinzai and said, "Hurry up and start eating, I'm hungry." ”

Li Qinzai hurriedly led Li Zhi and Empress Wu to the door.

While maintaining a respectful posture, Li Qinzai still didn't forget to look at Empress Wu's face.

Seeing that Empress Wu seemed to be smiling, but he couldn't see his unhappy expression, Li Qinzai's mood eased a little.

It seems that I am not too relieved, and I have to talk about it.

Everyone entered the door, and King Teng was the last, and a trace of loneliness flashed on his face.

What about being a king? In fact, the Heavenly Family still treats him as an outsider.

His birth was an accidental product of Taizong's house arrest of Gaozu, after the death of Taizong and Gaozu, King Teng and the Heavenly Family only had a trace of affection, half-dead and alive, and it could be broken at any time.

When the monarch and the ministers met just now, the distant relatives were clearly distinguished, and the dignified uncle was not as good as the holy family of a young courtier, this is the naked reality.

followed everyone into the front hall, and King Teng's identity finally gained a sense of existence.

In terms of rank, King Teng sat at the head of Li Zhi and Empress Wu, which was regarded as a VIP seat.

Li Qinzai hesitated for a moment, and whispered a few words to his subordinates, and not long after, the subordinates brought up the wine and food, one in front of each person, and the fragrance exuded an attractive fragrance.

Li Zhi snorted and said curiously: "What kind of food is so fragrant?" ”

Li Qinzai blinked: "Your Majesty try it first?" ”

Li Zhi didn't hesitate to take a bite and eat it, his eyes getting brighter and brighter: "It's delicious, it's delicious!" I've never eaten such delicious food! ”

Empress Wu also took a shallow taste, after all, the life experience of the royal sister is relatively rich, and she knows what it is when she enters it, so she can't help but glance at Li Qinzai.

Li Qinzai said with a smile: "Your Majesty likes it, eat more." ”

"What kind of meat is it?"

Li Qinzai saw that Li Zhi ate several bites without raising his head, so he coughed twice and said uncomfortably: "Uh, it's beef ......"

Poof-

Li Zhi sprayed a table of meat scraps.

"Jing Chu, you ......" Li Zhi wanted to be angry, but reluctantly looked at the beef in front of him.

It's so tangled, scold first or scold when you're full?

Li Qinzai decisively betrayed his disciple without blinking his eyes: "Your Majesty, it was the fourth prince who accidentally injured the ox on the Zhuangzi, the cow broke its leg and could no longer farm. ”

Li Zhi gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Sujie, that little bastard! I will not spare him. ”

"Ahem, Your Majesty forgives the sin, the minister has already punished the four princes, and he has been whipped ten times."

Li Zhi's expression eased and said, "Since Jing Chu has already been punished, forget it." ”

Staring at the beef in front of him, Li Zhi said with a righteous face: "I am not an unkind king, I don't want to eat hard-working cattle, but it is too fragrant......"

Before she finished speaking, the Empress Wu on the side couldn't help but remind: "Your Majesty! ”

"Ahem, no, what I mean is that since the cow is no longer able to work and has been turned into food, I have inherited the virtue of a good life in heaven, and I know that one meter and one millet cannot be wasted, so I decided to respect first and then eat."

After speaking, Li Zhi got up and respectfully saluted the bowl of cooked beef in front of him.

Li Zhi saluted, and of course others were embarrassed to sit stupidly, so everyone in the hall got up and saluted the fragrant beef in front of them.

The picture is very weird, like a litter of weasels doing team building, collectively greeting the chickens for the New Year.

After the salute, the sense of ceremony was completed, Li Zhi sat down, his expression regained his pleasure, picked up the chopsticks and said with a smile: "Let's eat!" ”

Li Qinzai blinked quickly, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

This is a bit too hypocritical!

Now that you've decided to pick up customers, isn't it good to meet the climax of life obediently? It's disgusting to suddenly set up a memorial arch.

The meal was enjoyed by the monarch and the ministers, Li Zhi stroked his belly contentedly, holding a cup of warm water soaked in ginkgo biloba in his hand, and sipping shallowly.

After drinking a glass of water, Li Zhi got up and said, "Let's go, look at the kiln you built, I came for it." ”

…………

Five cement kilns were built, and Li Qinzai had found the right ratio, and the five kilns were started together, and the daily output was not much, but it was enough for Ganjingzhuang to dig ditches.

Li Zhishen walked by the kiln with one foot and one foot shallow, carefully observed the operation of the cement kiln, and took the trouble to ask for a clear understanding of the details no matter how big or small, and did not forget to ask about the principle.

Li Qinzai answered truthfully in every detail, and the cement matter could not be concealed at all.

If he really wants to make this world he likes last longer, Li Qinzai even hopes that the production method of cement will be made public as soon as possible.

Not to mention anything else, if a straight cement road is built between Ganjingzhuang and Chang'an, Li Qinzai will do his best to build a luxury RV with beds, and then go all the way to the two places smoothly, and get a good night's sleep, how cool.

"Build roads?" Li Zhi pondered.

Li Qinzai nodded and said: "To build roads, if there is a surplus in the treasury, you might as well rebuild the main roads between the various prefectures and counties in the Tang Dynasty with cement, which will be of great use to the consolidation of the Datang Society." ”

Li Zhi's eyes lit up, and he subconsciously turned his head to find the Zhongshu Sheren, obviously planning to have a formal performance of the monarch and ministers at the mouth of the cement kiln.

Li Qinzai hurriedly said: "Your Majesty doesn't need to summon people, and the ministers don't really want to see the eldest brother...... The minister said casually, Your Majesty has heard it. ”

Empress Wu smiled and said, "Jing Chu said, this palace has a good memory, and I remember it." ”

Li Qinzai's back was cold.

This...... There's something in the words.

Gotta lick her quickly, tonight.

"Well, yes, it is very important to build roads, as early as the Qin Dynasty, the first emperor knew the benefits of transportation, which was conducive to military affairs and people's livelihood, so he built the Qin Road from Xianyang to Jiuyuan County, which can be regarded as an ancient highway......

Li Zhi said puzzledly: "High, high-speed...... Highway? ”

"Yes, a land of thousands of miles, the morning and the evening are coming, it is for the 'high speed'. If Datang uses cement to connect all prefectures and counties, no matter whether there is a civil uprising in the country, a disaster, or the imperial court to provide disaster relief and suppress rebellion, the army and logistics can travel along the flat cement road, which greatly accelerates the speed of emergency response, which is a good thing for His Majesty and Datang Sheji. ”

Li Zhi and Empress Wu's eyes lit up and they glanced at each other.

Li Qinzai continued: "Convenient and fast transportation, not only for military and disaster relief, but also for the convenience of merchants, when the flow of goods between the two places is faster, it is also a kind of promotion for the commerce of the Tang Dynasty, not only that, if the merchants are taxed by legislation, the treasury is even more unimaginable." ”

"Therefore, the minister thinks that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads."
