Li Chengqian is running unconsciously, he has passed the first fatigue period and has entered the second. His body was already soaked with sweat.

Four thousand meters Li Chengqian still didn't hold on in the end, his body was uncontrollable and fell to the ground, Li Chengqian lay on the ground, looking straight at the sky.

Panting heavily, he has reached the limit, usually neglected to exercise in the past few months, four thousand meters is already his limit, if he runs again, he may die.

"Your Highness, you have done a good job, better than most of the students. You're going to have to run here for the next three days. Then the increase began on the fourth day. Zhao Dahu looked at Li Chengqian and praised.

"Thank you" Li Chengqian smiled, smiling very happily. His stubbornness allowed him to complete the task, and Zhao Dahu helped Li Chengqian up and carried him to the dining room.

"You said Gao Ming ran eight miles today?"

In the Liangyi Palace, Li Shimin went down to the court meeting and reviewed the folds here. Ang Lee's Hundred Cavalry Division has been paying attention to Li Chengqian's movements, after all, it is the crown prince who can't make any mistakes.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the prince has been running for eight miles before he gets tired, and many students are admiring the prince." Ang Lee replied in the affirmative

"Well, stay tuned, but the Hundred Riders can't get involved in clever things except in danger. It doesn't matter if it's just a little injured. Li Shimin was very happy after hearing this.

Of course, he knew that Li Chengqian's ability to insist on running eight miles for the first time relied on willpower. Although the crown prince also usually learns archery and martial arts, Li Chengqian's extravagant life for more than half a year has long emptied his body. It seems that Lao Shi's method is really effective.

Li Shen has been very troubled lately because he made too much money selling books and tea last year and this year. Now there are six or seven million copper coins in his treasury alone.

This is not a good thing, and now the national treasury only collects 20 million yuan a year. Although the treasury collects so much. But he still has to spend more, so strictly speaking, it may not be as much as Li Shen's cash.

Li Shen has been thinking about how to spend the money these days, and Li Shen has even thought about donating half of the assets to the treasury.

"Lord Wang, what makes you so worried." Wu Mei looked at Li Shen in a daze and asked.

"Mei Niang, how do you think you can spend all the money?"

"Is the prince afraid of attracting suspicion? But there is so much money in the house. It's not so easy to spend it all you want. Wu Mei also has no clue.

What is the most expensive thing, Li Shen thought back to his previous life, what was the most expensive, buying land? No, it's not a good thing to have too much land. Then buy a house?

But Li Shen had already told Wang Hongfu to buy all the streets of the boutique pavilion, as long as there was something for sale, it didn't matter how much money it was. And now Wang Hongfu is still talking about buying at a high price in every household. I've already bought almost a third.

The palace guards are almost equipped, and there is no investment. The more Li Shen thought about it, the more annoyed he became,

"No, you have to spend the money, no matter what way you do. Otherwise, I'm afraid this year will be more than 10 million habits, it's too dangerous. ”

"Lord Wang, but there is too much money unless you give it for nothing. You may not be able to spend it in a short period of time. Wu Mei didn't want to hit Li Shen either, but this is a fact.

"Then we will do some good things for Datang."

"Lord Wang, if you have a big reputation, it's not necessarily a good thing"

"You can't manage so much, and the more money you have, the more dangerous it is."

"If you want to get rich, you must first build roads. We build roads. My mother's birthday is approaching, so I should pray for her. I don't believe there's any money I can't spend. Li Shen said fiercely.

After a while, Wang Hongfu was recruited by Li Shen. "Lao Wang, gather people to build a house and move the cement workshop to the coal mine. The scale is ten times larger than the workshop in Huangzhuang, and several more kilns are built. There is also a piece of land set aside for me on the edge of the Dongshan military camp, and how to build it in it. I'll give you the drawings in the afternoon. The fence should be the same scale as the paper mill, understand? Find more people, I'll build it quickly, go ahead! ”

Li Shen recruited a craftsman who could build a house, Li Shen painted the exterior and the style inside, and the rest of the structure was completed by the craftsman. Now the craftsmen know a lot about the green brick cement material, and have accumulated a lot of experience, so they took the drawings to the construction site in the afternoon.

Chang'an has recently paid attention to something again, and Li Shen began to build a large number of buildings. I don't know what exactly will be built, anyway, the Dongshan military camp and the Nanshan mining area have gathered thousands of people to start work at the same time, digging foundations, building walls, and transporting materials. This is very in line with Li Shen's habitual style, and Li Shen's actions naturally attracted the attention of many people.

Li Shimin also received the news, and it was more accurate than others. Li Shen has two places, one is a cement factory. One is an experimental field for experiments. Li Shimin didn't understand why Li Shen worked hard to build two places.

There is a very strange piece of news in today's newspaper, the article is written to recruit skilled craftsmen, requiring flexible minds, dare to think and dare to do, as long as you have ideas, the palace laboratory will pay for and complete your research.

And give a heavy reward, no one is restricted to anything, and then there is a series of benefits. Many craftsmen who saw it were red-eyed, and it said that as long as you have a skill, no matter what industry you are, you can do it. And there are several craftsmen who know how to build ships and build buildings.

As soon as the newspaper came out, many people began to go to Dongshan to sign up. And as the newspaper was distributed to the whole country, many people went to Chang'an.

The court and the central government didn't understand why Li Shen cared so much about these craftsmen, and the craftsmen of Shinong industry and commerce also belonged to the lowly nationality, but Li Shen was treated better than those who were very literate, let alone compared with the peasants.

With the efforts of thousands of people, the laboratory was built in more than half a month. This is mainly because they are all bungalows, and Li Shen has gathered hundreds of craftsmen who have been recruited. Li Shen wanted them to know what they should do.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this king is your master. A lot of people don't know what they're doing here, they think they're working. Actually, it's not right.

I'm looking for people to brainstorm ideas, like a carpenter, if he wants to make something, he has to set a goal first. I will provide you with money and materials.

For example, the blacksmith wants to make a better iron and steel that is harder, or a method that can increase the yield. That's a good idea. I will provide you with everything you need, including your monthly salary. All of you are in your own industry and think about what needs to be made and improved.

Then hand it over to the steward here, and I'll judge whether your idea is true or not. If any of you are chosen.

I will give you a separate house, also called a laboratory, to equip you with manpower and allocate money and food. Let you go to research and manufacture with peace of mind.

If there is a result, I will reward you with a large sum of money. If it's an ordinary commodity, you have a dry share.

Others who do not have a goal can only be a worker. I'll give you some assignments as well, but you can submit your ideas to the steward at any time. Do you understand? ”

What could cost more than research? This is one of the ways Li Shen thought of spending money
