For Tibet, the yak is both a family property and a status symbol, and the more cattle you control, the higher your status in Tibet.

Yak is also a good means of transportation and an indispensable livestock for the production and operation of the Tibetan people.

Seeing that more than a dozen jars at home are full of soy sauce beef, just looking at it is very comfortable.

The adults in the village are busy, and the children also have to go to school.

The little county lord became the most idle person in the village, and the entire Lishan was his own family.

Xiao Qingqing rode Xiong Da around the village, patrolling the territory together.

This child was brought up by Xiong Da, she and Xiong Da have a heart, and one person and one bear are the closest.

The bear also regarded the little lord as his own child.

While talking to Xiong Da, "Daddy said that Lishan should be cleaned up again, why are there so many weeds." ”

Xiong Da is so big that he understands human speech, and he is even nodding.

The villagers all knew that the bear in Lishan was about to become a sperm, and they had never seen an animal so humane.

Walking in front of the emperor's palace, Xiong Da stopped and bowed down.

Xiao Qingqing looked at the emperor's residence, this emperor came to live in Lishan, and the residence was not very good.

The bear was so large that the maids of the palace were frightened just by the time it moved, and it was half a man tall, and it would have been easy for the animal to stand upright and knock down a strong man.

It's docile now, but it's also terrifying.

"You're here?" Empress Eldest Sun said with a smile.

"Well, my mother asked me to greet the queen."

"Hmm."

Seeing the queen nodding, Xiao Qingqing said again: "Xiong Da, go and wait outside." ”

When the bear heard this, he walked out of the house with heavy steps, and then sat down at the door.

Empress Eldest Sun looked at this little girl and asked in a low voice, "Is it good to live in Chang'an City in the future?" ”

Xiao Qingqing followed the queen into the house, she found a table and sat down, and when she saw the mess in front of the table, she began to clean up.

When the table in front of her is cleaned up, she is relieved.

This is a very clean child, and the eldest grandson queen has a judgment in her heart.

"My granddaughter doesn't like Chang'an City."

Hearing this, Empress Eldest Sun frowned and said, "Why? ”

Xiao Qingqing explained: "I have been to Chang'an City, Chang'an City is very chaotic, the city gate is very smelly, and there are many people, very crowded and chaotic. ”

"But there aren't so many people in the palace."

"The palace is very big, but it is not as comfortable as Lishan, and my granddaughter will be very unhappy if she is locked up in the palace all the time."

At the beginning, His Majesty decreed to accept this girl as a disciple.

Looking at her attitude again, she was reluctant.

Empress Eldest Sun hesitated, whether this was her own idea or Zhang Yang and Yue'er's opinion.

said that he wanted to accept her as a disciple, which was His Majesty's intention.

The emperor can even calculate his own sons and daughters for the sake of power.

Zhang Yang is a very smart person, can't he see His Majesty's thoughts?

If she could not become a child, the queen felt a little lost, and after sitting down beside her, the queen asked kindly, "Why do you want to clean up this table like this?" ”

"Daddy used to say that things should be neatly arranged, not messy."

Empress Eldest Sun nodded, this child speaks clearly, speaks well, and can be so calm in the face of adults.

Unlike Li Xiang, the son of the prince, the child speaks heavily, and is always speechless in the face of adults, and if he wants to be sensible, he also knows the etiquette, but he is not as smart as Xiao Qingqing.

"What if your father asked you to come to the palace?" The queen cared for her and asked.

"I don't know what to do?"

The queen caressed the granddaughter's hair lovingly, what an aura little girl, her eyebrows and eyes were like Zhang Yang, and her face and mouth were more like Yue'er.

She was born in Lishan, and she was favored by the emperor, her eyes were very bright, and she was so energetic.

It is said that she has never been sick since birth, and like her newborn grandson, she was born strong and intelligent.

The queen took her little hand, "You're more like your father." ”

Xiao Qingqing grinned, "Daddy has too much scum, I don't like it." ”

Hearing this, the queen smiled again, and there was more distress in her eyes, the relationship between Lishan and His Majesty was so complicated.

In the future, this child will have to face the contradiction between His Majesty and Lishan.

The queen just felt that such a lovely child should not be caught in front of the battle between His Majesty and Lishan.

"If you don't become a disciple of this palace, then you won't do it, but there is one condition."

Xiao Qingqing frowned and said, "Does the queen also like to talk about conditions?" ”

Hearing this, Empress Eldest Sun smiled again, "Your father also likes to talk about conditions?" ”

"Hmm." Xiao Qingqing nodded heavily, "Daddy often said that everything must be negotiated with conditions, and everything must be based on conditions. ”

Speaking of the conditions, Xiao Qingqing hurriedly got up and said, "When the time comes, my granddaughter will go to learn from Mr. Ouyang Xun and say goodbye." ”

With a satisfied smile on her face, the queen nodded, "Hmm." ”

Xiao Qingqing hurriedly went out, climbed on the bear's back and said, "Xiong Da, let's go to Ouyang Xun's old man's house." ”

The bear walked with heavy steps, and three or two palace maids came out to see, and they were amazed at the fact that this girl could drive such a large animal, and they whispered about it.

Xiao Qingqing sat on the back of the bear and hummed a song and walked all the way, Li Shimin, who had just come down the mountain, was in a very bad mood after some bargaining, and walked with a straight face.

Met by Xiao Qingqing, who was riding on the back of a bear, she grinned at the emperor.

The child's innocent smile looked very comfortable, and the boredom after bargaining with Zhang Yang just now was also reduced a lot.

"What are you doing?" Li Shimin still kept a straight face.

Xiao Qingqing patted the bear's back, and it stopped.

She was raised by a bear and has always gotten along well with this bear.

If Zhang Yang and Yue'er are not there, it can also protect this little master very well.

Li Shimin looked at the animal, but it aroused Xiong Da's alarm, it would not let strangers touch it, let alone touch its little master.

Seeing that the bear showed a fierce appearance, Li Shimin took a step back and said in a low voice: "I just went to see your father." ”

"What did Grandpa and Daddy say?"

This grandfather said that he was not a stranger, and he said that he was very familiar but not familiar.

"Did Grandpa quarrel with Daddy again?"

Li Shimin smiled: "How do you think that I and your father will quarrel? ”

Xiao Qingqing sat cross-legged on the bear's back, clutching his feet in straw sandals with both hands, "Uncle Jin said that Daddy often quarrels with His Majesty. ”

Li Shimin wanted to explain something more, but he heard this girl shout.

"Big bear, run! The time has come, and Mr. Ouyang doesn't like me to be late. ”

The bear seemed to be able to sense the anxious mood of the little master, and ran all the way towards the village.

The bear ran so fast that he could hear the girl's laughter.

Li Shimin stood there and smiled, it was rare to see a child and an animal living so happily.

The innocence of children is very calming.

Much less annoyed by Zhang Yang's sky-high price, Li Shimin returned to the palace.

Empress Changsun stepped forward to help His Majesty take off her heavy coat, "That kid said he didn't want to come to Chang'an." ”

Li Shimin sat down and said in a deep voice: "The child is still young and ignorant. ”

"This kid is very smart."

"Well, it's really smart, and Yue'er teaches it well."

His Majesty has always had prejudices against Zhang Yang, and the queen sighed again, it seems that His Majesty will not easily withdraw his fate.

And now that the child is four years old, will this child be able to endure living in the palace?

Li Shimin poured a sip of tea and said in a low voice: "Call Yan Liben." ”

The prince nodded in response and went to arrange.

In the afternoon, Yan Liben hurried to Lishan, and after getting off the horse, he walked to the palace without stopping to meet His Majesty.

Li Shimin was walking back and forth with a solemn expression, "How much hematite is there in the treasury of the DPRK now." ”

Hearing His Majesty ask about this, Yan Liben was stunned for a while, and then replied: "Iron ore has been sent from all over the country, and there are more than 6,000 iron ores in the court right now, most of which are used to prepare for the construction of ordnance. ”

Li Shimin bowed his head and said: "Send all these hematite ores to Lishan." ”

"For ...... Why? ”

"You can send it if you need it for the creation of Lishan."

"Whoa."

In the end, the emperor took out silver coins in front of the firearms, 6,000 stone of hematite and 2,000 pieces of silver, and asked for ten cannons.

Hematite was transported into Lishan one by one, looking very gratifying, the samurai Tong counted the quantity and weight, and Master Jiang took people to confirm the quality of the iron.

The scene of Zhang Yang standing on the mountain looks very comfortable, and the scene is also very gratifying.

The emperor has the best resources in the world, and if these resources are not used, it will be a tyrannical thing.

Li Shimin felt sorry for his iron mines, which were enough to build ordnance for several Zhechong Mansions.

"Your appetite is getting bigger and you want more and more."

The Emperor's words were low, like a lion that was not angry and arrogant.

Zhang Yang waved his hands and said: "It's not that I want more, but Your Majesty wants more and has to pay more, it's just a deal." ”

"It's not that I want more and more, but that Your Majesty has to pay what he wants, which is the same as buying and selling."

Li Shimin's expression became more and more iron-blue, "Are you saying that I am becoming more and more greedy?" ”

Zhang Yang's expression was solemn, and his body leaned against the trunk of the maple tree, "Your Majesty, this deal is absolutely cost-effective." ”

"If someone were to pay a higher price than me, would you sell the artillery to someone else?"

"Your Majesty laughed, the manufacture of Lishan is for production and construction, if Your Majesty does not allow us to make firearms privately."

The emperor's eyes stared at him for a long time, and after a while, Xiao Qingqing came with a thermos cup, "Daddy, drink the medicine." ”

Zhang Yang nodded and took the thermos cup and was about to drink, and said, "Your Majesty wants to drink some?" ”

Li Shimin waved his sleeves and said, "I will give you a month." ”

With these words, the emperor departed.

Zhang Yang finished drinking the decoction in the cup, tied the cup around his waist, picked up his daughter and asked, "Are you going to Uncle Wei to eat roast mutton again?" ”

Xiao Qingqing sat in his father's arms, shook his head and said, "Uncle Wei didn't roast mutton today, and his daughter went to eat roast duck." ”

Zhang Yang frowned and said, "Your Uncle Wei wants to lose weight, why does he still eat?" ”

"Hehe, Uncle Wei didn't eat, he watched me eat."

Zhang Yang smiled helplessly and pasted his daughter's face with the stubble of his chin.

Her little hands pushed weakly, and after a long while, she rubbed her fat face aggrievedly.

Returning to Lishan with his daughter, Zhang Yang went to the greenhouse first, although the weather was still cold in spring, and the planting of vegetables could not be delayed.

Aunt Wang held a bunch of files and sent them, "The county marquis was sent to the mountain by Shangguan Yi." ”

Zhang Yang looked at the apple trees and olive trees in the greenhouse, several apple trees were growing quite well, and the olive trees were already half a person tall.

Because of the water, soil and climate, the olive trees do not grow well, and the leaves are yellow and there is no fruit.

Zhang Yang picked out some vegetable seedlings and handed them to Aunt Yang, "Trouble Aunt Give these vegetable seedlings to Shangguan Yi, and he will bring them to be planted." ”

"Whoa."

Then transplant some of the seedlings in the seedbed in the greenhouse into the vegetable patch of the greenhouse.

Zhang Yang checked and found that radish is the best to grow, and it is also the first that can be cultivated.

When the cold spring has passed, these vegetable seedlings are planted, and when the warm spring season comes, pumpkins can be planted first, and grape seedlings can be planted in early summer.

Zhang Yang returned to the study, took out a few drawings, and asked Aunt Wang to take them to Master Jiang.

This is the drawing of artillery casting, and the biggest difficulty in artillery casting is the barrel and barrel.

Think back to the old earthen cannon, which was a cannon barrel, and throw all the pots and pans into the barrel, or some fragments of stone, or shredded wood, helmets, or even shoes.

Stuff these things together and then compact, and ignite the lead to blow all the debris out of the pipe.

It also has a certain lethality, and it is not difficult to manufacture, the only difficulty is the casting process.

There are also some iron buckets that can also produce the effect of artillery.

Many village earthen firearms are also very convenient to use and simple to build.

However, this kind of earthen cannon must lie down as soon as it explodes, otherwise it will easily blow up its own people, and God knows where what it will blow up will fly to.

The primer can only be cast by itself, and this thing is the core technology of artillery.

Of course, there is no need for so much hematite to make artillery, but it is just a lack of resources for the future development of Lishan, and the long-term solution, the most urgent shortage at the moment is all kinds of materials.

Iron, coal, stone, and sand are all the things that are most lacking in Lishan now.

Lishan still has 80,000 stone of coal and stone, plus the supplement of 6,000 stone of hematite this time, as well as the rock sand sent before, these things are enough for Lishan to use for a while.

In the long run, you still need to master a resource land.

The dossier sent by Shangguan Yi was the planning of the acres of the field, and he judged what vegetables were more suitable to grow according to the soil, the distance of the water source, and the degree of irrigation.

Li Yue walked into the study and sat down on the side, "I heard that my husband is going to make firearms again." ”

Zhang Yang smiled: "Well, I promised your father to build ten cannons." ”

"My husband said before that he would make artillery for our daughter to play with."

"You don't say I almost forgot."

My daughter already has a lot of toys, and I have to build an extra cannon for my daughter to play with.

Zhang Yang took his daughter-in-law's hand and pondered: "You can build a small artillery, and the cannon can't hurt people." ”

"The husband underestimated his daughter."

"Really?"

"Don't look at her well-behaved now, but she has a lot of thoughts in her heart."
