Immediately afterwards, Li Er also flipped through several other gift boxes.

I have long heard that there are more children in his Lao Li family, and the courtesy is light and affectionate, and Zhao Mu has also prepared some small gifts for them.

It's just that I don't know how many heirs there are, so I prepared more small gifts.

Changle got a gift as he wished, this pair of glass necklaces, which looks so good.

Wearing it on my neck, I only feel that my whole temperament has improved a lot.

On the other hand, Li Chengqian looked sad, he liked a set of arithmetic problems, which was really evil.

"Come on, load all these things into the carriage and bring them back to the palace!"

"It's sir!"

On the same day, Li Er and his entourage left the Li Mansion and returned to the palace.

Before leaving, Li Er gave each of them a box of Huazi.

The two took Huazi and returned to their respective mansions, leaving only a group of servants and maids in the Li Mansion to operate in this mansion step by step.

The eldest grandson Wuji arranged for a henchman to come to the Li Mansion as a housekeeper to manage it, and he would also come to the Li Mansion from time to time to inspect it.

And the people in the Li Mansion can be said to live quite comfortably.

Doing the easiest work every day, and receiving money every month, it's really enviable!

Drive, drive, drive.

"Young master, this two-day tour of Chang'an City is still quite interesting, and the meals arranged by Shopkeeper Li are also in place.

If we have the opportunity to come to Chang'an City again next time, let's live in Li Mansion, I see it's okay! ”

"If you have the opportunity to come to Chang'an City, let's talk about it."

"It's the young master."

Li Er returned to the palace, and the time pressure was just right, so he changed his clothes and went to the early court.

After finishing the court meeting, I returned to the Taiji Hall and started to get busy again.

"Your Majesty, the news from the northern border pass, please check it out."

Li Er opened the letter and read it from beginning to end.

The news on the letter said that the army of the Tang Dynasty had begun to invest in training on a large scale.

Just wait for the spring of next year, and the army will go north to fight the Turks.

After reading the news from the soldiers in front, Li Er told everyone to train hard.

The subsequent grain and grass must be transported so that all the soldiers are ready.

The three armies did not move, the grain and grass went first, and this battle against the Turks, Li Er speculated that it would take at least more than a year.

It's just that the consumption of grain and grass is very huge, and I remembered what the virtuous brother said, there will be a drought and locust plague next year, thinking about this, Li Er only felt a taste of upset.

"That's it, thinking about these things makes it easy to mess up your thoughts.

As the saying goes, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and let's wait until something happens. ”

The two days passed in a hurry, and after the morning court, the eldest grandson Wuji drove the carriage and took His Majesty in the direction of Zhaojiazhuang!

Arrived at Zhaojiazhuang!

I met Zhao Mu in the front hall!

"Brother Xian, two days have passed since this farewell in Chang'an City, and my old Li misses you very much.

I've taken care of this matter, and I'm here today to tell my brother about the heating.

Brother Xian, can you see if you can arrange for my Lao Li? ”

"Absolutely!"

Zhao Mu took Li Er to the wooden lattice below the left and right sides of the front hall and found this thing called heating.

I only felt warm when I leaned forward, I only felt warm, and I touched it with my hand, wow, it's quite hot.

Looking at this lattice again, there were several in the entire front hall, and I couldn't help but whisper in my heart.

I said that when I entered their house, I only felt that the room was warm, and I was very curious in my heart.

But I didn't think about it at the time.

Today, seeing that so much heating has been arranged, it would be strange if the house was cold!

"I said, Brother Xian, you can't have a heating in that restaurant, right?"

"That's nature, my whole Zhuangzi is all laid."

"What about the people out there?"

"The people of my Zhuangzi are not good, but they have a fire kang, so they don't have to worry about the cold night."

"Brother Xian, what is this fire kang?"

Li Er was stunned when he heard it, these fresh words had never been touched, and he looked at Zhao Mu with a puzzled expression.

Zhao Mu arranged for someone to take Li Er to the homes of the people outside Zhuangzi to take a look.

There are a few families that have begun to cook on the fire, only to see that the kang touched the warmth with their hands, and then attached the quilt and mattress, and the night was warm.

Brother Xian is really a genius.

"Brother Xian, you are really talented.

I suddenly came to the situation, and this is also a business opportunity.

There are a lot of wealthy families in Chang'an City, and if you arrange heating to every household.

We can't make a lot of money in this entire Chang'an City? ”

Li Er only feels that he is a big smart, these days he is thinking about continuing to save money, isn't this heating a big business opportunity today?

After all, the heating of the carbon basin is still a minority, and the heating can ensure that it is warm all night, which is good and which is bad at a glance.

"I didn't expect it, Lao Li, your business mind is really not ordinary.

This heating has been in my Zhuangzi for so long, and there are many businessmen who work with me.

Stunned, no merchant discovered the mystery of this.

In this case, the heating matter, the market in Chang'an City will be handed over to you.

I'll give you the raw materials, and I'll give you some manpower to install it.

It just so happens that there are many people in my Zhuangzi who are resting at home, asking them to make some money and increase some income, and they can't ask for it. ”

"Brother Xian, of course you can, but it's just this profit?"

"If you make a profit, you will open three or seven, and if you install the heating this time, I will charge you a cost money."

Li Er......

"I said Brother Xian, you see that I have found such a good business opportunity for you, and I still have to charge money for the heating of my Li Mansion?"

"My brother is settling accounts!"

You have to get it, Li Er waved his hand again and again, he is a virtuous brother, and this is not an ordinary black.

However, today's task has been completed, and I am still quite happy.

Had dinner in Zhaojiazhuang, and the next morning, the eldest grandson Wuji drove the carriage in front, leading the group of Zhaojiazhuang, pulling a large number of materials, and setting off in the direction of Chang'an City.

Arrived at the Lee Mansion and began to assemble the heating.

These people in Zhaojiazhuang are all good at work, and Li Er is just thinking about doing an experiment first.

In two days, the entire Li Mansion was installed, and all the remaining materials were placed in the Li Mansion, and the money and goods were cleared.

Zhao Mu also gave Li Eryi an additional car of coal.

Fill the heating with water, the boiler is installed in the kitchen, ignited.

Because the Li Mansion is relatively large, the heating temperature is also relatively slow, and the temperature of the heating has only been raised for a whole morning.

Li Er took a few people to the Li Mansion in person and checked it out.

Not to mention that the whole study is warm, even if you go inside and take off a piece of clothing, this feeling is really wonderful.

"Auxiliary, do you want to install one in the Zhao Guogong Mansion?"

Everyone likes good things, especially if I experience it myself.

"Your Majesty, Weichen also wants to install one."

"Since you want to install it, just tell me directly.

You go back to the mansion and see how many radiators need to be installed, you should know how to calculate them, and report the number to me.

Pay first and install later. ”

Ahem.

Your Majesty has really changed now.

"Your Majesty."

"Auxiliary, it's a pity that although this heating is good, the consumption of this coal is too great."

The word coal is still Li Er heard Zhao Mu say, the official version of this thing is called black stone, which can be lit for heating.

It's just that the current Blackstone is not particularly common in Datang.

The Tang people all use carbon and wood, and now this coal is so used, which makes Li Er's eyes shine.

If you directly monopolize the coal industry, will you be able to make a lot of money again this winter?

Just as he was thinking, a servant hurried over.

"Master, there is not enough black stone in the kitchen.

This heating consumes a very large amount of black stone, and now my Li Mansion has switched to burning wood, and please decide! ”

Li Er also heard a little about coal mining, which is said to be buried in the ground, and it is very difficult to mine.

Unlike firewood, which is very common, it can be cut down in the forest.

Unfortunately, although the wood is good, it is not burned, and although the coal is resistant to burning, it is troublesome to mine.

Each has its own advantages and disadvantages, but this is also a business opportunity.

Since his virtuous brother has this ability and can mine it, there must be a way to mine it.

Li Er decided to go to Zhaojiazhuang again on another day.
