Chapter 403: Progress

The seeds of the white stacked flowers are the focus of Tang Jian's trip, Li Er was overjoyed after receiving the good news, he was overjoyed and went to the queen to calm down, and then suddenly remembered one thing, when Hou Junji led the army to the expedition, he did not bring the seeds of the white stacked flowers, and he didn't know if the seeds Hou Junji found were right, the greater the expectations, so Li Er suffered more from gains and losses, so Li Er sent Tang Jian to the labor army, by the way, to see if this is the seed of the white stacked flowers, Hou Junji took Tang Jian to the carriages that were protected by the army layer by layer, opened the box, there were cloth bags inside, all of them were placed very neatly, the guards next to him stepped forward and opened the cloth bags, Tang Jian immediately stepped forward to take a look, and suddenly felt a sense of relief, and then he took out a small brocade box, opened the brocade box and inside it was a beautiful purse, and then took out a folded silk from the purse, and the people next to him were dumbfounded, what is Ju Guogong going to do? What treasure is hidden so deeply? Tang Jian opened the silk very carefully, and everyone looked at the silk curiously, only to see three seeds lying quietly in the opened exquisite silk, the seeds of white stacked flowers, Hou Junji They were very speechless, aren't they just three seeds of white stacked flowers? As for hiding so deeply? There are more than 10,000 catties of white stacked flower seeds, which can be said to be countless white stacked flower seeds, what are just three white stacked flower seeds? Do you need to treasure it in such layers? However, Tang Jian was very careful, because this was given to him by the emperor solemnly one by one, or the emperor sent Huang Yan's father-in-law to Lijiazhuang to get it, Tang Jian carefully observed and compared the three seeds in his hand, and discussed with the officials of Sinong Temple in a low voice, and nodded.

"Yes, it should be the seeds of white stacked flowers!"

Only then did Hou Junji understand that Tang Jian had come to check if he had collected the seeds of white stacked flowers, could this be wrong? He Hou Junji has conquered Gaochang Kingdom thousands of miles away, will he get 10,000 catties of wrong seeds back? Is he so stupid when he Hou Junji? Although Hou Junji was like a fish in his throat, he didn't say it, because he guessed that Tang Jian must have come by holy order.

"Don't worry, you won't be mistaken, this must be the seed of the white stacked flower!"

Hou Junji said with a smile, who dares to lie to him? If it weren't for the seeds of the white stacked flowers, he would have been able to slaughter Gao Changguo without leaving a chicken and dog, and after the comparison, Tang Jian solemnly picked up the seeds layer by layer and put them back, this is a gift from the emperor, and it should not be ignored.

"Go back and report to the saints! It is confirmed that it is a real white stacked flower seed. ”

Tang Jian turned his head and ordered, as the weather warms, Chang'an becomes more lively, especially the carriages on the Changsheng cement road are endless, and the court is also very busy, because the day of spring ploughing is coming, and the annual spring ploughing, from the emperor to the people, is very busy, and the Ministry of Rites is particularly busy, to arrange the triumphal ceremony, although several days have passed, but Li Yong is still a little worried.

"I think I've found rice that crops twice a year, corn seeds that are abundant, and now I've found white stacked flowers that keep me warm, how can you not trust me? Changle, 10,000 acres of white stacked flowers, blooming a piece of white, spectacular and beautiful. ”

How could Li Lizhen not understand Li Yong's hints, in fact, she also wanted to take out 10,000 acres of fertile land to plant white stacked flowers, isn't it 10,000 acres of land? It's not very simple, since the white stacked flowers were proposed by Lang Jun, then naturally Lang Jun should try to plant them! She knew in her heart that once the trial of white stacked flowers was successful, it would be a great achievement that would be remembered in the annals of history! It's not that she is greedy for merit, but she thinks that this merit should belong to Lang Jun, so she also went to the palace to find the queen mother, but the queen mother very euphemistically mentioned Li Yong's attempt to plant corn, although the attitude was very tactful but very resolute, Li Lizhen just felt very regretful, regretting that she did not take over the housekeeping of the whole family earlier, otherwise she would not have let Lang Jun plant corn like that!

"Master Hou, the prince of the Taiyuan royal family asks to see you."

Wang Qingyun? When Li Yong heard this, he suddenly came to his senses and said with a smile.

"Invite him to the living room!"

It's probably here to send money, good guy! In the living room of the front yard, Wang Qingyun saw Li Yong walking with a smile on his face.

"Master Hou, long time no see!"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"It's been a long time since I saw you, but I've been waiting for you!"

Hearing Li Yong's words, Wang Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he was afraid that the ship would arrive at Li Yong but regretted it, and now when he heard Li Yong's impatient mood, his heart was suddenly ready, Wang Qingyun said with a smile.

"How could I be embarrassed to come to see you without the ship ready? I broke my leg for this ship! But Hou Ye has a great kindness to me, even if it is worth it for Hou Ye to break his leg! ”

Wang Qingyun said very sincerely, as if he was really willing to break his leg for Li Yong, huh? Wang Qingyun has made great progress! Acting skills have improved! Li Yong said with a smile.

"You broke your leg when you ran to Yichun Garden, right? How did I hear that you had a hot fight with Miss Fang Fei from Yichun Garden? ”

Nonsense, it's obviously a Jiao Xing girl, how can it be a Fang Fei girl? Wang Qingyun coughed dryly, he was also a little embarrassed to be debunked so quickly, Wang Qingyun smiled.

"It's a little bit of an exaggeration, although I didn't break my leg, but I broke my mouth, and I kept urging them to hurry up and build a ship for Hou Ye, and finally built the ship, and now it has been dragged to Haizhou, I came to report the good news to Hou Ye!"

In fact, he didn't rush at all, because it was not their Taiyuan royal family who was responsible for shipbuilding, their Taiyuan royal family was just pulling the strings. There is no need for him to be anxious, there are people who are in a hurry, the ship must be built as soon as possible, and the shipbuilding of the entire Tang Dynasty is controlled by Li Yong, and their ships are all in Li Yong's Imperial Shipyard, Li Yong just let Huating County deliver it to these people through special channels, and he made money secretly, and the ship is still an old style, which is not a matter for the Imperial Shipyard at all, as expected, the ship sent by Wang Qingyun is produced by the Imperial Shipyard in Huating County, Li Yong nodded with a smile.

"It turns out that the ship has been sent to Haizhou, very good, your family has done what it says."

Li Yong sold them these boats are all remodeled, not built from scratch, but remodeled, so the speed should be faster, in order to be able to go to sea as soon as possible to find the spice island, these families heard that they could speed up of course and readily agreed, Wang Qingyun asked with concern.

"When will Master Hou go to receive the sea boat? When does Master Hou plan to go to sea? ”

"Oh, you said to the sea!"

Li Yong said with a smile, just this sentence, Wang Qingyun's heart suddenly rose, should Li Yong regret it? Wang Qingyun hurriedly said.

"Didn't Master Hou say that as long as there is a ship, he will go to sea?"

If the boat is given to Li Yong, but Li Yong doesn't plan to go to sea, then the fun will be great, how will he explain to his family and other families at that time? After all, this sea ship was put together by everyone! The smile on Wang Qingyun's face had long since disappeared, but he was in a hurry, and Li Yong said with a smile.

"Yes! That's what I said, I'll send someone to Haizhou in a few days to receive the ships. ”

Wang Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief in his heart when he heard this, if he couldn't even send the boat, then the fun would be great! Fortunately, Li Yong did not regret it, but happily admitted what he had said, Wang Qingyun asked nervously.

"And when are you going to go to sea?"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Out to sea? Don't worry, wait until I pack up the ship and go to sea. ”

Wang Qingyun couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and wondered.

"Still tidying up?"

Li Yong said as a matter of course.

"Nonsense, of course you have to clean up, and you have to check and check, what if you leave some loopholes and want to kill my people?"

Wang Qingyun couldn't help crying and laughing when he heard this, how could their dignified family do such a dirty thing? Everyone wants to follow to find Spice Island, how can you make some holes in your ship? Besides, it's not you Li Yong who goes to sea, but you send people to sea, is it worth wasting a boat on your people? Wang Qingyun hurriedly waved his hand.

"How can there be a loophole? I, Wang Qingyun, can pat my chest and guarantee that there is absolutely no problem with that sea vessel. ”

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Don't worry, when I pack up the boat, I'll go to sea as soon as I can."

At this moment, Wang Qingyun felt that Li Yong must have understood what their family had in mind, but Li Yong still agreed so happily, but he didn't understand what Li Yong thought in his heart.

Could it be that Li Yong thinks that the spice island will be found by the family anyway, so it is also profitable to be able to pull a boatload of spices? Wang Qingyun suddenly thought of a possibility and asked weakly.

"You won't pack the boat for a year, will you?"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Don't worry, at most a month or two, soon."

A month or two at most? Wang Qingyun suddenly smiled again when he heard this, since Li Yong said so, then everything is stable.

"Okay, although everyone wants to go to sea, but without you to start, everyone always feels that they have no bottom in their hearts, and they are waiting for you to go to sea first to cheer everyone up and strengthen their courage!"

Wang Qingyun explained with a smile, he doesn't know whether Li Yong will believe it now, whether Li Yong believes it or not, he has to explain it, although it is a scene, but what if Li Yong believes it? Sent Wang Qingyun away, Li Yong went back to change his clothes and immediately entered the palace with the guards, with the passage of time, the prince and the princess have never had the same room, the prince's worries have not been resolved, but the emperor's worries have been resolved, especially the news of the great victory, which has made Li Er's mood completely better, and the national strength of the Tang Dynasty is thriving! Another kingdom has been conquered, this is enough to be recorded in history, glorious for eternity, and the white stacked flowers can also be recorded in the annals of history, and the good news comes one by one, how can Li Er not be happy? As spring approached, the atmosphere in the palace thawed, and the little eunuch entered the main hall with a smoke.

"Enlightened sage, Huating Hou asks to see!"

Li Er said with a smile.

"Li Yong? Declare him in! ”

Li Yong walked into the hall and greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Chen Li Yong meets the saint!"

Li Er said with a smile.

"Li Yong! You don't need to say it anymore, so-and-so won't agree to you, and it's useless for you to ask for it with Changle! ”

How could such an important matter as trying to plant white stacked flowers be handed over to Li Yong? Li Er also knew that Li Yong had been depressed recently, but he was quite gloating after knowing it.

"Sage, the minister didn't come today to try to plant white stacked flowers."

Li Yong said helplessly, isn't it to try white stacking flowers? Li Twenty was surprised.

"Oh? It's not for the white stacked flowers! Then why did you come to see you? ”

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Sage, several great families gave the minister a sea ship."

"So, you want to go to sea? They must be uneasy and kind, they want to follow you to the Spice Island, you only have one sea ship, they have a lot of sea ships, you can only take a small advantage, most of them are given by them, are you willing? ”

Li Er asked, although a boatload of spices is worth a lot of money, but when he thought that the family would get more spices, Li Er felt that the boatload of spices was not fragrant, it was better to let the spices rot on the spice island, but Li Yong sneered in his heart, when my navy is vegetarian? On the sea is my world, Li Er sighed.

"What a pity! These families started south early, and a certain sea ship has not yet been built. ”

I have to say that Li Er's reaction was indeed a little slower, and no one expected that Cheng Chuhei would encounter a spice island by chance, and pull a boatload of spices back, these dozens of truckloads of spices went all the way north from the south, and the southern family was the first to get the news and the first to prepare, Li Yong said with a smile.

"The saint doesn't have to worry, in fact, the minister has also sent people to the south to investigate......"

Before Li Yong finished speaking, Li Er was already excited.

"Can you build a lot of ships?"

Of course, I can build a lot of sea ships, and I have a lot of ships on my hands, and they are new warships, but this is only one step in my plan, Li Yong pretended to be very embarrassed to explain.

"Of course, the minister doesn't have a sea ship in his hands, but the minister knows that the Lingnan Feng family has built a lot of sea ships."

Li Er couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this.

"Lingnan Feng family? Feng An? ”

Lingnan is not rich, but the Feng family has been entrenched in Lingnan for many years, and is a veritable king of Lingnan, after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Feng Ang took the initiative to lead the people to attach, but Lingnan is far away, the terrain is treacherous, and the army is difficult to station, so Lingnan can be said to be still the territory of the Feng family, although the Feng family has returned to the Tang Dynasty, but it is basically a matter of listening to the tune and not listening to the announcement, so Li Er is also very embarrassed to hear it, the Feng family may not be ordered, and it will not send troops to recruit Feng Ang for the sea ship, right? To tell the truth, Li Er would rather use troops against the Western Turks than to conquest Feng An, because that would pay a huge price, the Western Turks are flat and can give full play to the advantages of the army, but Lingnan is mountainous and jungled, and they are all Yi people, and the army has no geographical advantage and no people in Lingnan, even if it pays a great price to capture Lingnan, it will also inspire hatred with the local Yi people, and I am afraid that there will be no peace in the future, so as long as Feng Ang does not rebel to the death, as long as it is not forced to do so, it is impossible for the imperial court to send troops to recruit Lingnan, Destroying this good peaceful year, the Feng family also understands this truth, so they happily surrendered to the Tang Dynasty and continued to be the nameless but real king of Lingnan, Li Er groaned.

"Li Yong, you may not know much about Geng Guogong and the Feng family in Lingnan, when the Tang Dynasty was founded, Feng Ang took the initiative to return to obedience and resolve a big war, this is a great achievement, and I can't force meritorious men for a few sea ships!"

How could Li Yong not know about the Lingnan Feng family? It was precisely because of his understanding that he understood that what Li Er said was all, and it was not the real reason at all.
