The second wind rises in Chang'an Chapter 219 A trivial matter
Now the cooks in Lu Chen's mansion have all been trained in Lu Chen's recipes, not to mention that as a county magistrate, there is not only one cook in the kitchen, and the effort is not big, a table of wine in the side hall is set up, and at the same time, Lu Chen also went to bring two bottles of two pots back.
Now that there is a glass bottle, the glass bottle is not a rare thing in Lu Chen, but Li Daozong and Li Xiaogong couldn't help but feel a sense of tyranny in their hearts when they saw Lu Chen treating this glass bottle so casually.
"Bottled wine in glass bottles, I guess you can do this kind of thing!" As soon as Lu Chen put the second pot head on the table, Li Daozong couldn't help but tease Lu Chen when he looked at the glass bottle.
"Recently, Liulifang has fired a batch of things out, which happens to be for auction, and the two princes will take a look at it together in a while?" Lu Chen picked up a bottle of Erguotou, unscrewed the cap of the bottle, and personally poured a glass of wine for the two princes, and said with a smile.
"That's a good dare!" Li Daozong couldn't wait to take a sip of wine, and after being satisfied, he said.
"I didn't expect that there were so many green vegetables in the Lu County Mansion, which surprised the king!" Looking at the dishes of stir-fried vegetables on the table, Li Xiaogong couldn't help but show a look of envy in his eyes, even if he was a prince, it was a luxury to want to eat green vegetables in this season, and Lu Chen casually put out several plates of green vegetables that were not the same, how could he not make Li Xiaogong envious.
"Lord Wang, I have already sent someone to send green vegetables to the prince's mansion, I believe that when the prince returns home, he should be able to taste green vegetables!" Lu Chen lifted the back of his robe, sat on the chair, looked at Li Xiaogong and smiled.
"Oh? You actually sent someone to bring green vegetables to this king? Why doesn't this king know? Hearing Lu Chen say that he had sent someone to send him green vegetables, he looked at Lu Chen in surprise, if someone sent green vegetables to his house, someone should come to report to him, but he has not received the news so far.
"Maybe Brother Wang went to this king's mansion and got along with the person who delivered the food, but I don't know!" Li Daozong didn't care at all, he directly stretched out his chopsticks and took a bite of the cabbage, and said casually while eating, "Maybe it's for Sister-in-law Wang, maybe it's okay!" ”
"It's possible!" After listening to Li Daozong's words, Li Xiaogong nodded, after all, the matter of green vegetables can be big or small, and it may not be possible for Princess Dou to make her own decisions.
"Brother Wang, if you don't eat it again, this dish will be cold!" Li Daozong looked at Li Xiaogong and said.
Li Xiaogong looked at Li Daozong's eating appearance, couldn't help but smile and shook his head and said: "That is, you are so profligate here in Lu County, if you let outsiders see your eating appearance, it is really unsightly!" After Li Xiaogong smiled and counted Li Daozong's sentences, he picked up the chopsticks and put a chopstick dish in his mouth.
"Lu County Gong, this king has something to ask for!" After eating a few bites of food, Li Xiaogong looked at Lu Chen and said.
"The prince has something, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it!" Lu Chen put down his chopsticks and looked at Li Xiaogong and said.
"The cooks in your kitchen are so good at cooking, I wonder if this king can send someone to learn?" Li Xiaogong is famous in history for enjoying, although there is speculation that it is because of the relationship between the master of high merit and the master, using pleasure to keep the light and nourishment, so as to protect himself, but Li Xiaogong's original character is also extravagant and bold, and he treats people modestly, so he is quite fond of this appetite.
"Why not! Just send someone to learn! Lu Chen said with a smile, he thought that Li Xiaogong was going to say something big, and Lu Chen naturally would not refuse this kind of thing.
"Thank you Lu County for that!" Li Xiaogong smiled at Lu Chen.
"It's just a trivial matter, why worry about it, the prince is serious!" Lu Chen smiled very casually, "But I do have something I want to talk to the prince about!" ”
Now that the wine has passed three rounds and the food has passed five flavors, it is a good time to talk about things, Lu Chen looked at Li Xiaogong and said.
"Oh? I don't know what Lu County Gong has to say to this king? Li Xiaogong looked at Lu Chen and asked.
"As far as I know, now the prince should still be the governor of Kuizhou, in charge of the affairs of warships and sailors, right?" Lu Chen looked at Li Xiaogong and asked.
"Not bad! Although His Majesty summoned the king back to Beijing to report on his work this time, it seems that he has no intention of letting the king step down from the post of governor of Kuizhou. Li Xiaogong looked at Lu Chen and asked.
"I'm not good at water warfare!" Lu Chen hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head and said, "I just want to ask, can the warship under the prince now go to sea?" Lu Chen looked at Li Xiaogong and asked.
"Lu Xiangong said with a smile, the warships under this king are okay to pass in the rivers and lakes, if they go to sea, the sea is boundless, how to make it!" Hearing Lu Chen's question, Li Xiaogong laughed directly, the warships at this time are all flat-bottomed warships, this kind of boat is not a big problem in a place like a river or lake where the wind and waves are small, but if you want to go to the ocean, it is very difficult.
Although there are also fishermen who go out to sea to fish, they are all offshore waters, and most of the boats used are small and medium-sized boats, as for the building ship with the largest carrying capacity in the Tang Dynasty Navy It also carries a weight of about 2,000 stones at most, how to sail away, so Li Xiaogong immediately laughed after hearing Lu Chen's question.
"If you can design an ocean-going ship below, I wonder if the prince will be able to build it?" Lu Chen looked at Li Xiaogong and asked with a smile.
"I don't know what kind of ship Lu Xiangong is talking about? What kind of material is it? Li Xiaogong looked at Lu Chen and said with a smile, although Li Xiaogong didn't believe that Lu Chen could design any warship, after all, from Lu Chen's words just now, Li Xiaogong heard it, Lu Chen didn't understand water warfare, but Li Xiaogong still asked Lu Chen politely, Lu Chen had created a lot of novel things, and maybe there were any good proposals.
"At present, it is just an idea, and then I will send the design drawings to His Majesty and the prince to see, if it can be done, it will definitely let my Tang Navy gallop across the ocean!" Lu Chen pondered for a while and said, Originally, Lu Chen wanted to directly propose the construction of an ironclad ship, but Lu Chen found a problem, that is, how to solve the power problem after building an ironclad ship, so Lu Chen was going to do a test of the ironclad ship first, so he swallowed back what he wanted to say.
"In that case, then the king is waiting for the design of Lu County Gong!" Li Xiaogong said with a smile, although Li Xiaogong did not hold out any hope in his heart, he should be polite.
"Brother Chengfan, I don't know if I can find that Qian Junnan now?" Lu Chen turned his head to look at Li Daozong and asked, since Li Daozong has been investigating Qian Junnan, presumably if he wants to find Qian Junnan, Li Daozong should be as easy as a finger.
"It's a trifle!" Li Daozong smiled, "Someone!" Li Daozong turned his head directly and shouted outside the side hall, and suddenly a guard ran in.
"Go and bring Qian Junnan here!" Li Daozong gave a direct order, and the guards directly took the order and ran out.
"I wonder how the two of you are eating? Do you have time to go down and see the 'gifts' for those people? Lu Chen looked at Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong and said with a smile.
"Full of wine and food!" Li Daozong directly patted his stomach and said with a smile.
"Since we are full of wine and food, should we take a stroll and take it as a meal, how about it?" Lu Chen got up and smiled and made a "please" gesture to the two.
"You can also enjoy the scenery of this Lujiazhuang!" Li Xiaogong stood up with a smile, and Li Daozong also stood up, and the three of them walked out of Lu Chen's mansion together and walked directly to the workshop area.
The three of them walked in front, and the back was naturally accompanied by those guards and others, and the group came to the workshop area in a mighty way.
Lu Chen took Li Daozong and Li Xiaogong directly into the Liulifang, and at this time, those craftsmen had just had lunch and were sitting in the workshop to rest casually.
"Grandpa, Lord!" Ding Wuyi, who was chatting with the craftsmen, saw Lu Chen come in with Li Daozong and a person he didn't know, Ding Wu hurriedly came over to greet Lu Chen and Li Daozong, as for Li Xiaogong, although he didn't know him, but he could come with his grandfather, that identity was naturally not an ordinary person, so Ding Wu also gave Li Xiaogong a salute.
"No need to be polite!" Lu Chen waved his hand, and Ding Wu and the group of craftsmen straightened up.
"Are you done eating?" Lu Chen looked at the group of people and asked with a smile.
"I just finished eating the meal from my mother-in-law!" Ding Wu said with a smile.
"Have you done everything that Bengong asked you to make?" Lu Chen looked at Ding Wu and asked.
"Grandpa, you've made all the things you wanted! It's all in the box over there! Ding Wu pointed to several wooden boxes stacked on the side, and the wooden boxes were covered with felt.
"Open it and show it to my father!" Lu Chen said.
"Hey!" Ding Wu responded, "You guys, bring the box over!" Ding Wu beckoned a few craftsmen to carry the wooden boxes to Lu Chen's feet, and then opened the lid of the wooden boxes, and under the sunlight, the surface of the glass products in the boxes was shining brightly.
"Find a small box for this dragon and this set of glass cups for my father!" Lu Chen picked up a few pieces of glass and rubbed them twice, although the feel was certainly not as smooth and round as modern times, but in this era, it was not bad to be able to polish it by hand to this extent.
And Li Daozong and Li Xiaogong were directly stunned by the glass products in the box, in which Lu Chen directly fired a set of zodiac signs, as well as glass bottles and glasses, each of which was taken out in their opinion, it was a priceless thing.
"Two princes, how are these things?" Seeing the stunned appearance of these two princes, Lu Chen suddenly felt a little vanity satisfaction, and said with a smile to Li Daozong and Li Xiaogong, "How about this 'gift' prepared for those people?" ”
"Are you really going to sell this?" Li Daozong looked at the glass products in the box and asked reluctantly.
