Chapter 79: To love is to truly live
Li Linfu gave a thumbs up and said to Li Mu: "His Royal Highness the Prince, humble and open-minded, with a heart and mind, no one in the world can match, the old man will pray for His Royal Highness the Prince every day in the future, so as not to waste His Royal Highness's mercy and compassion for the old man." β
Li Linfu was moved by his true feelings, Li Mu hurriedly helped Li Linfu into the car, saying that he still had to work for his father, Li Linfu thanked him a thousand times, and saw Li Mu leave, before wiping his tears and returning home.
Although Li Mu knew that Li Linfu was grateful to him in his heart, he took it too seriously, that is, he was naΓ―ve.
People like Li Linfu, as long as they are driven by interests, crocodile tears will come at any time, they don't know how to advance and retreat, sooner or later they will be eaten by crocodiles and drowned in tears, Li Mu is not a fool.
The carriage went directly to Hengjie Sixth Road, and then Li Mu sent his carriage back, and today he had to carefully arrange the lightning rod matter.
Since Dad wants to worship his ancestors and make a big move, he must cooperate in advance, as the saying goes, there are three rainstorms.
Looking at the weather this autumn, it is very likely that there will be one or two rounds of violent counter-killings with lightning and thunder.
Next time, the lightning rod must play a role, at least the palace, and there can be no more big losses.
Li Mu came in and found that the three people from the Taishi Bureau were there, Fu Xianyue, Zhou Qiang, and Xu Renjie, all of whom were carefully counting the locations of the first batch of lightning rods.
He Biao and several masters were very busy.
Seeing Li Mu, several people hurriedly saluted.
Fu Xianyue came over immediately, and her little hand made a gesture to hold Li Mu, but suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly withdrew her hand, her little face became red, but she still stared at Li Mu.
Li Mu dodged Fu Xianyue's hot eyes and asked, "How many finished products are there in the first batch now?" β
Zhou Qiang said: "One hundred and twenty, we are counting, houses above three floors in the capital, as well as attics, towers, etc., but the number is far from enough." β
Li Mu said: "This autumn, the climate is abnormal, it is estimated that the drought and thunder will kill the horse gun, and it is possible to come again or twice,"
Fu Xianyue nodded and said, "So, statistics are statistics, as for how to distribute them, it depends on the arrangements of His Royal Highness the Prince." β
Li Mu said: "That's not good, the lightning rod is the result of the Taishi Bureau, and the placement is also your task, I am providing technical support, we all listen to Mr. Fu, are you right?" β
Zhou Qiang and Xu Renjie both laughed, Fu Xianyue liked it in her heart, Li Mu valued her like this, and Fu Xianyue was happy in her heart.
"However, without the technical support of His Royal Highness the Prince, we are nothing, okay, we listen to your arrangement, how can there be a woman in charge? Your Royal Highness, whatever you say is what you say. β
Fu Xianyue has no distinction between public and private, and suddenly feels that as long as there is a place for Li Mu, it is like her own home, and no matter how big or small the family is, of course, Li Mu, the man, is in charge.
Li Mu saw that it was not good to push again, so he said: "I have three ideas, the first batch of lightning rods, first consider the tall buildings in the palace, then the official yamen of the various ministries and a few main streets, and then the attic towers in Chang'an City." β
"Just now, I have already proposed to Your Majesty to establish a patent office, and Your Majesty readily agreed, so in the future, this thing, and more inventions, are everyone's patents, not only can you get rewards, but also leave a name for eternity."
"Huh?" The three of them all looked at Li Mu in shock, as the younger generation and backbone of the Taishi Bureau, a few of them, of course, they attached more importance to leaving a name through the ages.
"But, Your Royal Highness, the lightning rod is your patent? Don't we dare to be greedy? Zhou Qiang said very seriously.
Li Mu smiled: "What is mine, yours, such a complicated thing as a lightning rod, is the crystallization of collective wisdom from all of us, including these masters, as well as a large number of craftsmen behind the scenes, we will receive the award together and leave a name together?" β
Zhou Qiang and Xu Renjie jumped on the spot excitedly and ran to the work area to share this great good news with the craftsmen.
Fu Xianyue's expression was even more exaggerated, and she couldn't wait to throw herself into Li Mu's arms and frantically gnaw Li Mu a few bites.
"Your Royal Highness, are you really sharing patents with us? Why are you so generous, it feels like we are all thieves, stealing your research results. Fu Xianyue said, tears rolling down.
Li Mu said: "I'm willing to be stolen by you, okay?" Don't say so much, we are a team, a collective, a family, and we will continue to introduce new inventions in the future. β
"Uh-huh, we're a family, we all listen to you." Fu Xianyue choked up, and liked the three words of the family.
"Your Royal Highness, why don't we go to Yanjing Lane first, I still have a few ideas to discuss with Your Highness, you and I don't seem to be able to interfere with the work here."
Fu Xianyue's temptation was very direct.
Li Mu can only snicker, once a girl is intoxicated with love, she is basically hopeless.
Where is the research and discussion, do you want to throw yourself into your arms, I also want to, but I am not as bold as you, and if I don't have you to spread it, once I stumble, there will be endless troubles!
Li Mu said: "Everyone is busy, let's leave, isn't it okay?" Why don't you all do it together and start installing separately today? This ghost weather, once it thunders, it must not continue to be installed,"
Fu Xianyue said: "You are responsible for the arrangement, the specific operation, then you need on-the-spot guidance, there are Zhou Qiang and Xu Renjie, you are still not at ease?" β
Li Mu said in a low voice: "I'm not worried about them, I'm not worried about you?" β
Fu Xianyue smiled deliciously: "Are you afraid that I will eat you?" β
"I'm afraid!"
Fu Xianyue was shy, compared to the real person, girls seem to prefer the soothing of language, saying that girls are auditory animals, and they prefer sweet words when they talk about love, not false at all, as long as they listen comfortably, the whole person will jump out.
Li Mu called Zhou Qiang, Xu Renjie and He Biao and several others to the front, and specifically told them to start the installation in batches, especially emphasizing that once the weather changes, the work will be stopped immediately.
Otherwise, standing on the top of a tall building with a lightning rod in your hand, isn't that waiting for lightning to strike?
Fortunately, several people are experts, know the stakes, and each said that the construction is safe, and there is no need for Li Mu to work hard.
Li Mu walked out of the door and found Fu Xianyue waiting at the door, twisting and shy, looking shy.
Combining work and rest, I, Li Mu, am a prince, I don't have to work so hard, chatting with girls, having a meal, playing something interesting, and being physically and mentally happy, is the normal state of His Royal Highness the Prince, right?
Li Mu made excuses and steps for himself, and he was also thinking in his heart, even if Fu Xianyue was very bold, how big could he be? Does she really dare to push herself?
That's interesting.
The older female official of the Tang Dynasty and a young and handsome prince had an affair, which should not be as good as the idea of His Majesty the Emperor beating his daughter-in-law, right? Then give it a try?
Hehe, Fu Xianyue, let's go to Yanjing Lane to study and study?
"Let's go? What are you doing? Isn't there a topic that needs to be studied? This prince sacrificed his life to accompany him. Li Mu looked at Fu Xianyue with a narrow face.
Fu Xianyue walked a few steps and asked, "Your Royal Highness, are you really not afraid of others talking about you and gossiping?" β
Li Mu said: "You are not afraid of a female official, I am just an idle prince who does not learn and has no skills, what am I afraid of?" Without scandals, what's the fun for the prince? β
"Villain, you have a lot to say about everything." Fu Xianyue muttered, and did not dwell on the matter of secretly hiding the night before.
Li Mu likes this kind of girl, no matter whether the past is right or wrong, she doesn't entangle, she doesn't turn over old accounts.
The two walked side by side, walked down a street, and soon entered the courtyard of Yanjing Lane, Li Mu just tied the gate, Fu Xianyue suddenly jumped, and jumped directly into Li Mu's arms, and his feet were off the ground, hugging Li Mu's neck.
Li Mu was almost pushed to the ground, stood up urgently, and said in surprise: "Fu Xianyue, Mr. Fu, you are moving so violently, are you not afraid at all?" β
Fu Xianyue kissed Li Mu the face and said, "What am I afraid of?" Why should I be afraid? I'm a female officer and a girl, I like you and fall in love with you, is it wrong? β
Li Mu could only hehe in his heart, "You're not wrong, it's all my fault, but, we are like this, do you think there is a result?" β
Fu Xianyue giggled and said: "You are the prince, if you want to give me a result, I will have the result, you don't want to give it to me, I don't regret it, a woman has a lifetime, there is no love, she really lives in vain, Li Mu, my heart has been filled with you, as for the result, does it matter?" β
Li Mu was shocked, a person who has loved is alive, how sharp and profound what he said, without love, no matter how high his status is or how rich he is, it is empty.
Love comes first.
It is because in this era, everyone has no scruples and enjoys the dividends of love.
