If you want to say whether Yan Lide has selfishness or not, there is no doubt about it.

As the general of the Tang Dynasty, he naturally wants to compete with the Ming Dynasty.

After all, there is competition between them.

But if he is alone, how can he fight? What to fight?

During this time in Sun Moon Mountain, both Zhang Erniu and Fang Blacksmith were quite enthusiastic about him, but he could see that behind this enthusiasm was disdain and provocation.

But he was powerless to refute.

There is no way, except for saying that Datang's craftsmen are skilled, he really can't find more words to prove anything for Datang's craftsmen.

"I'll talk about this later, but now the important thing is that after returning to Chang'an, can you make the exact same zigzag plow?" Duan Lun said, "Such a country's important weapon, if it completely depends on the Ming Dynasty, it is not only a matter of cost, maybe Your Majesty will not have a good time." ”

"It's hard to say for the time being, but I just took a look, and the specific structure was drawn from memory." Speaking of serious matters, Yan Lide immediately put away his selfishness and said, "If you let me study Quyuan Plough more, it should be no problem."

It might take us a while to figure it out on our own, but we can do it.

Don't look at the fact that they are only improving on the previous plowshares, but the process of this improvement is estimated to have taken them a lot of time, after all, after making it, it will take a lot of time to test something. ”

"It's okay, I've already placed an order for a hundred pairs of Quyuan ploughs to the Ministry of Daming Households, and I can let you disassemble and study it when the time comes.

But the old man has a request, that is, before the year, Datang must mass-produce the Quyuan plow.

You also know that this thing is related to people's livelihood, and for ordinary people, it is more important than anything else.

Soon after the beginning of the year, it will be the time of busy farming, and the old man will not talk about the entire Tang Dynasty, but it will be used near Chang'an, right?

If the Quyuan plow is popularized as soon as possible, one less person will be starved to death in the world. ”

Duan Lun may be a little selfish sometimes, but more often than not, he is indeed a competent official.

How to measure whether an official is competent or not, in fact, only needs to look at the weight of the common people in his heart.

Of course, the reason why he worked hard to promote all this is not just for the common people.

However, when Yan Lide heard this, he shook his head and said, "With such a country's important weapon, His Highness would sell it to me so easily?"

Won't His Royal Highness come to the Ming Dynasty first?

After all, in the final analysis, the most scarce food now is his Ming court. ”

"Don't worry about this." Speaking of this, Duan Lun smiled, "You, I don't understand, as you said, in terms of engineering, the old man is not as good as you."

But in terms of being an official, you are still far behind.

His Royal Highness will definitely do this business, and he will give priority to Datang.

In the future, it will even do it with Tubo, Goguryeo, and even the countries of the Western Regions. ”

"Huh?" Yan Lide really didn't understand.

Seeing him like this, Duan Lun smiled and said, "Some people may only see immediate interests in their eyes, but some people's eyes are focused on the interests of the people in the world, and you don't understand what you say." ”

His evaluation of this is not low.

However, Yan Lide didn't bother to ask, as long as he had to study, if he couldn't do it according to the map, he wouldn't have to do it as a general who would be a prisoner.

But when he thought of the mechanisms that Da Ming had used as a prisoner on the repeater, he said with some concern: "It won't be the same as the repeater again, right?" At that time, in order to prevent others from imitating their repeaters, the Ming Dynasty did a lot of useless work on the repeaters that made us spend time and effort. ”

He didn't forget this, when Da Ming did a lot of things on the repeater that seemed useful, but in fact they were just confusing others, and he had a headache when he thought of this.

Compared with the crossbow and the curved plow, it can only be regarded as a small thing, and the large object of the size of the curved plow, it is much more convenient to really engage in these small tricks.

This will definitely delay their research efficiency.

"You can rest assured of this." Duan Lun shook his head and said, "Judging from His Highness's heart for the common people, he will not allow such a thing to happen."

The repeater is a strategic material and can do this, but the Quyuan plough is related to the people's livelihood, and His Highness will definitely not do it. ”

Duan Lun is also a smart person.

He knew very well that Li Chengqian's purpose in studying this thing was for the sake of the people's will, and although it was impossible for the people's heart to really help him because he was a zigzag plow, but with this thing, at least in the hearts of the people, he Li Chengqian had the foundation of the people's will.

If this opportunity had been lost for the sake of petty profits, Li Chengqian would not have been able to do it today.

Moreover, he vaguely discovered that Li Chengqian was using a silent means to moisten things and slowly show his presence in Datang.

From the first paper to the simple stationery to the last three-character classic, Li Chengqian has left a deep impression in the hearts of readers.

Now it is a zigzag plough again, and it will take root in the hearts of the people in the future.

If it continues like this, in another ten or twenty years, even if Li Er and those guys in the Chang'an court want to abolish the prince, I am afraid it will be extremely difficult.

Thinking of this, Duan Lun simply shook his head.

What's my business?

In the next ten or twenty years, whether the old man is alive or not is two words.

At least, it's going in a good direction for now, and that's it.

But he didn't realize that this was the most terrifying thing about Li Chengqian.

Although every step he takes is for the good of the people of the world, in fact, it is himself who benefits the most.

Those who win the hearts of the people win the world!

Li Chengqian is practicing this sentence very well!

"Duan Shangshu, Daming Hubu Shangshu Puxi asks to see." Just then, someone came to report.

"Here we are." When Duan Lun heard this, he immediately got up and said, "Please!" ”

He knew what Pussiro was here for.

"Pu Shangshu came to the door, and he missed the distance." Seeing Pu Xiruo enter the door, Duan Lun immediately greeted him.

On the side, Yan Lide just arched his hand and said hello.

"Duan Shangshu is polite." Pu Xiruo happened to see the drawings drawn by Yan Lide, and immediately walked over and praised, "General Yan's work is really powerful, but after reading it once, he can already draw to this point."

If it weren't for the old man who knew that I would be a prisoner and heavily guarded, he would have thought that this drawing was from my Ming Dynasty as a prisoner. ”

Duan Lun's face changed slightly, but Yan Lide didn't take it seriously.

For him, this is normal, after all, the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty have not cherished their brooms for a day or two.

Spying on other people's eating skills, what's wrong with being yin and yang?

"It made Pu Shangshu smile." Yan Lide smiled, "I'm just itchy and unbearable, but obviously there are still a lot of shortcomings." ”

"Pu Shangshu is here for an important matter?" Duan Lun restrained his emotions, and then said, "Could it be that what I said to Pu Shangshu in the morning has already been decided?" ”

He was obviously knowingly asking.

"Yes, that's what I'm here for." Pu Xiruo didn't mind, and immediately smiled, "After Duan Shangshu left, the old man went to inquire.

Not to mention, I don't have much of this Quyuan plough in the Ming Dynasty myself, after all, the Ming Dynasty is also preparing for spring sowing at the beginning of the year, and I may not be able to cope with Duan Shangshu. ”

When Yan Lide heard this, he was about to get up, but Duan Lun was one step ahead of him and said: "How can there be any right or wrong way to live, the situation of Daming, everyone knows, it is indeed not easy." ”

Saying that, Duan Lun also sighed, and then said, "But a hundred pairs of Quyuan plows can't solve the practical problem for Daming, and the old man doesn't want much, just a hundred, and if you don't open your mouth, you need a thousand." ”

He knew that this was Psiru's negotiation strategy, but this strategy was still a little tender for him.

Not to mention that Li Chengqian promised him, even if Li Chengqian didn't agree, if the Ming Dynasty didn't sell Quyuan ploughs to the outside world, Pu Xiruo wouldn't come right away even if he didn't send a person.

is so eager, obviously wanting to make this business happen.

Of course, Pu Xiruo's performance is actually normal, before Daming's business was taken care of by Li Qinjian, he has no experience in this area, and he has no ability in this area.

The reason why he went out in person this time is nothing more than to want to learn, and he really wants Li Qinjian to grasp this piece in his hands, isn't his household book being hollowed out?

"That's what I said...... Puxi stopped talking, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Listening to General Zhang, His Highness has only reserved two hundred Quyuan plows to prepare to trade grain with Subi, and the rest of the Quyuan plows have already been arranged. ”

Hearing Pu Xiruo say this, Duan Lun couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

This guy is really a little younger, isn't this meaning obvious?

If you want to buy it, buy 200 pairs.

At this point, Duan Lun didn't know where he was that his little thoughts were seen through by Li Chengqian, and the so-called two hundred pairs must have been proposed by Li Chengqian.

He estimated that there were not many quyuan plows in the entire Ming Dynasty, and Li Chengqian didn't know that since it was a one-time deal, he simply slaughtered more.

This price can be surprisingly high.

"That's it, Pushangshu." Duan Lun said with a smile, "Let's sell these two hundred pairs to the old man first, and then we will discuss the price." ”

Puxi Ru was a little sluggish, and when he was still thinking about how to fool Duan Lun, Duan Lun had already taken the initiative to speak.

He didn't want to think about it, just Duan Lun, these essences, as soon as you pouted your butt, he would know what color shit you were going to pull......

"That's not good...... Pusery said, shaking her head.

Duan Lun waved his hand and said: "There's nothing bad about this, Subi is still in a civil war with Tubo, where is the time to do this, besides, His Royal Highness has already promised the old man, if Pu Shangshu doesn't believe it, you can ask Your Highness." ”

He was afraid that Puxiru wouldn't know how to get off this stage, so he specially helped him build a step for him to get down.

"It's not." Pu Xiruo still shook his head and said, "Duan Shangshu doesn't know, the price of this Quyuan plow is not low.

Isn't it just researched now, and the cost is also high, Datang will no longer wait, next year or the year after, the price will come down, and then come to buy? ”

Duan Lun couldn't help but want to laugh.

It was true that Puxiro was incompetent in this regard, but he didn't care too much about it.

When he made this decision, he was ready to be slaughtered, and immediately said: "Where is Pushangshu, it is related to the people's livelihood in the world, and I can't wait, so Pushangshu will talk about the price first, and we will listen to it first."

If you really can't bear it, then there's really no way. ”

"Hey." "To tell you the truth, the cost of each quyuan plough is now nearly 100 yuan, so the price of the prison will be 120 yuan, and this 120 yuan will pay half of the grain." ”

Speaking of this price, Puxiru was ready to be scolded.

The price is outrageous enough.

Even Duan Lun was surprised, good guy, one hundred and twenty runs?

Li Chengqian: This is expected to be a one-time deal.

But the price was a mixed bag for him.

Happily, this price shows that Li Chengqian definitely did not do anything on the Quyuan plow, and after returning to the Tang Dynasty, he will definitely be able to reproduce it.

From this aspect alone, the price of 120 guan is really not high.

After all, as long as Datang produces its own energy, how much is it worth tens of thousands?

To put it bluntly, what Li Chengqian sold was never a Quyuan plow!

Worryingly, this price is indeed too outrageous.

One hundred and twenty runs, if it weren't for the imperial court's money, the people of Datang would not be able to afford it at all.

People who can afford this thing still need to farm?

"Pu Shangshu, isn't this price too high?" Duan Lun said, "Eighty guan, although eighty guan is already very expensive, the old man can barely make it up." ”

"Eighty strokes will not work." Puxiru shook his head, "One hundred and fifteen." ”

"Eighty-five times."

……

The two tugged for a long time, and finally set the amount at 100 yuan.

In fact, it was not decided by the two of them.

It's really Puxi who doesn't know how to do business, and in the end, he can only bite Li Chengqian's reserve price and not let go.

Duan Lun also saw it, and finally had to grit his teeth and agree.

He knew very well that what he bought for 20,000 yuan was actually not a Quyuan plow, and Li Chengqian's willingness to sell it was already his love for the people of the Tang Dynasty.

"That's it." After the price was agreed, Duan Lun said, "Pushangshu arranged for someone to help me load the car, and as for the money and food, the old man wrote back to Chang'an and asked his family to raise it."

Rest assured, nothing will be missing.

I still have a little credibility in Duan Lun. ”

Pu Xiru was stunned when he heard this, did he really pay for it himself?

Even Yan Lide was stunned, and couldn't help but say, "Old Duan, are you going to dig out your family's foundation?" ”

In fact, this money doesn't need to be paid by Duan Lun, after all, it wasn't bought for him Duan Lun.

Duan Lun smiled and said, "If you go to Chang'an, whether it is Your Majesty or the Ministry of Households, you are willing to pay this money, but it will be too delayed to go back and forth."

Moreover, at this price, the household department may have to argue for a few days, which is a matter of no choice.

simply let the old man get better, and if it is popularized one day earlier, there will be one less starving soul in the world, but it is just a little floating wealth. ”

20,000 yuan, Duan Lun has to treat the ancestral house as a ......

However, it can also be seen that Duan Lun still has some family background, after all, his Duan family has been an official for generations, and he has also saved some family business, especially in his father's generation, which is also a scholar of the previous dynasty.

Of course, even so, if he wants to make up 20,000 yuan, he is afraid that he will break his family.

But the value of this broken house, at least in Duan Lun's opinion, is so.

He's not stupid, or rather, he just wants more.

If he wants to go back to Chang'an to do something, then from now on, he has to take precautions.

However, Yan Lide and Pu Xiruo couldn't understand Duan Lun's intention to do this, and the two of them were respectful at the moment!

After all, there are really not many people who can do this.

Ask for a commuter pass!
