After Lu Daqiang listened, he suddenly realized that this is not quite the same as modular production, which is obviously more efficient, and he also thought of an advantage, that is, it can be kept secret to a large extent.

Although it is impossible for them to betray His Highness, they are afraid of inadvertently leaking it, and if everyone only knows part of it, it will not be easy to collect all the drawings.

"Your Highness, I understand." Lu Daqiang leaned over and saluted.

"Well, Tian Meng, after the production is completed, the spinning personnel will be dispatched to carry out experimental production, and in addition, preparations will be made for the purchase of silk and hemp. In addition, tell the Western Regions Branch to collect a large number of seeds of white stacks, and then expand large-scale planting. Li Ke gave Tian Meng a new order.

White stacks are cotton, which has been introduced into the Tang Dynasty, but the number of Datang planting is very small, mainly concentrated in Gaochang, Qiuzi, Yanqi, Gumo, Shache and other countries in the Western Regions.

And Gumo, Shache, which was later known as the Aksu region, was also an important cotton producing area in Xinjiang, and Gaochang and Qiuci also had parts.

Cotton has already been planted in these places, but Datang has not yet begun large-scale planting.

"Yes!" Tian Meng immediately bowed and said.

"If it is possible, after making profits first, we will buy white stacks from Gaochang at a high price, and by the way, we will change our internal name to cotton in the future." Li Ke pondered for a moment.

"Your Highness, Gaochang is far away from us, and if we buy white stacks, oh, that is, cotton, our costs will rise on a large scale." Tian Meng hesitated.

"I know that the price should be high, higher than the price of grain planted by the people of Gaochang, so that the people of Gaochang had better plant cotton on a large scale, and it is best to plant cotton in full, as for the grain, we bought grain from nearby and sold it at a low price!" Li Ke added.

"Huh?" Tian Meng was a little puzzled, what is Your Highness going to do.

Li Ke did not explain that this plan will not see results within a year or two, and it will take at least about three years to have initial results, and as for the goal, it is only the simplest economic means in later generations.

The country of Gaochang has always been bad, although this is not something that Li Ke has to deal with, this is Li Shimin's business, but it affects Li Ke to make money!

"Yes!" Tian Meng didn't ask, just execute it directly, and whatever His Highness says is what it is.

"Well, first verify the technology of the spinning machine and the loom." Li Ke handed the drawings of the shuttle loom to Lu Daqiang, "After the verification is successful, we will directly expand the scale of production, and after this year's spring silk comes down, we are ready to enter the cloth industry on a large scale." ”

"Yes!"

"Also, find someone to come and help me translate the materials, I read them, and ask people to help me copy them, and after this part of the materials is translated, I will find someone to start large-scale breeding of dolphins, and buy all kinds of animal oil and vegetable oil." Li Ke explained again.

Among the several sets of books he took out were spinning machines, looms, jacquard machines, and how soap and soap were made, as well as how to roast tea. In fact, Li Ke has almost made fried tea, he is really not used to drinking Datang's boiled tea over the years, he can't stand it if he adds everything, although he can't do fried tea, but he knows that he is using a pot to copy tea leaves, so that people can experiment.

If it doesn't work once, ten times, a hundred times, as long as you know how it works, it's not difficult to figure it out.

So the fried tea has actually been made, Li Ke has already drunk the fried tea a few years ago, for him, a person who tastes a lot of tea, there is not much difference in drinking, but he still took the craftsmanship of the fried tea.

Wouldn't it be better to have the right posture for this thing?

"Your Highness, there are not many people who eat pork meat, and the people are not very willing to raise it." Tian Meng hesitated, Datang pork meat, that is, pork, is not eaten at all, at least people with a little family background do not eat it, and naturally there are fewer people, and the main meat of Datang is mutton.

"If you can raise it, this thing is much better than mutton." Li Ke didn't explain, the whole body of the pig is a treasure, it can be said that the pig is the biggest invention of mankind, and nothing in this thing is useless.

It's just miserable.

"Yes!"

"That's all there is to it for the time being, you arrange it." Li Ke waved his hand, as for other basic materials, such as cement, etc., Li Ke also has information now, but there is no need, make money first, and then say, with money, everything is simple, "Now call a few people to follow me to the study." ”

"Yes!" Tian Meng immediately bent down and said.

Li Ke was just about to take someone to the study to copy a few books such as "Breeding of Good Breeds" and "Urging Sows to Estrus and Ovulation", when a guard outside hurriedly ran in, "Your Highness, the queen has a decree to let you go to the palace." ”

"Huh?" Li Ke was stunned for a moment, Empress Eldest Sun called him? Isn't it for the eldest grandson to call the shots?

It's unlikely, over the years, Changsun Chong has been used to being beaten, and he hasn't seen Empress Changsun help him out.

"What about the herald?" Li Ke was a little puzzled.

"Gone." The guard laughed dryly, and the other party didn't dare to stay long if he said anything, for fear that His Royal Highness the King of Shu would do something, and he would run away when the word was heard, anyway, he also knew that here in His Royal Highness the King of Shu, even if it was a decree, you should not think like other ministers.

After so many years of blood and tears, everyone has learned, so the other party who ran away is called a simply.

"What do you mean? This king is so scary? Chase me back! Li Ke raised his eyebrows and said loudly.

"Your Highness, the other party came on horseback." The guards hurriedly saluted.

Li Ke: "......"

Damn it! I miscalculated, next time I will explain to the guards in advance, and I will leave the messenger behind no matter what! It's not that he wants to do anything, it's mainly that he wants to secretly inquire if Li Shimin pretended to be the eldest grandson queen to pass the decree and trick him into playing the board.

Don't believe your cheap daddy's discipline, it's long gone!

Anyway, in his own place, Li Shimin has done a lot of such things.

Mainly...... Knowing that he was going to be beaten, Li Ke really did something to resist the decree before.

Li Shimin was also angry, it was originally a matter of beating a military stick, and his own son couldn't really be killed.

Of course, Li Ke's resistance to the decree also played a little trick, for example, someone reported that the edict was coming, and he knew the content of the decree in advance, but others ran away directly, pretending not to receive it.

I didn't receive it, so of course it's not disrespectful.

If he really resisted the decree openly, then he wouldn't dare.

Empress Changsun called, Li Ke still wants to go, over the years, Li Ke really admires Empress Changsun, the virtuous queen recorded in history is worthy of her name.

Over the years, Li Ke and the eldest grandson's family have become like that, and the eldest grandson queen is amiable when she sees Li Ke, and people are not acting, Li Ke can feel it, and in many things, it is a bowl of water, and there are many times when she intercedes for Li Ke and exempts Li Shimin's military stick.
