Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 268
Chapter 264

Those princes are very depressed, Wei Hao gave them the opportunity to make money, but they can't grasp it, this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, no one is short of money, even Li Shimin is short of money, and now they have money to give them, they Neither earn.

"Go back, I'm going to deal with him severely, bastard!" Fang Xuanling gritted his teeth and said, the other dukes also clenched their fists.

And Yuchi Jingde is very proud, his condition is better than them, after all, he only has two sons, but no one would dislike having more money, right?

In addition, Li Jing is also happy. Not to mention his son-in-law has money, he is still bringing his son to make money. Although he said that he is under pressure from having no money. If he is really short of money, Wei Hao will definitely lend it to him, but he also hopes to get more money. Money, buy more properties for the second child, so that the second child can feel more comfortable.

And the other dukes clenched their fists, they are very depressed at the moment, no
However, the most fortunate ones are Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong. Fortunately, I knew to talk about this matter at the beginning, otherwise, the money would have slipped away from me. Take a lot of stress off yourself.

"Okay, let's not talk about the bricks, and don't impeach the bricks. What is the impeachment? People rely on their skills. They didn't steal or rob them, and they didn't force those people to buy them. At this time, impeachment, It's outrageous for me to dismiss it!" Li Shimin watched those ministers finished speaking, then stared at Yuchi Baolin and asked, "Where is Shen Yong, is he at the brick workshop every day?"

"No, for those who can't see him, we are the ones making up our minds about the brick workshop!" Yuchi Baolin shook her head and said.

"Well, this bastard, Wang De!" Li Shimin cursed angrily when he heard it, thinking that this kid must be sleeping late at home, and it's already getting hot, so he hasn't set off yet.

"The little one is here!" Wang De immediately stood up.

"When I went to Wei Hao's house, I told him that I wanted to see him and asked him to come to Ganlu Hall. We had lunch at the Lizheng Hall at noon. His mother hadn't seen him for a long time, and said she missed him a little bit!" Li Shimin said to him. Wang De said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wang De went out immediately, and arranged for someone to call Wei Hao. After the court, Li Shimin returned to the study, and Fang Xuanling could not wait to go home right now, so he could clean them up before talking. Think about it. He was in a panic.

In Wei Hao's house, after Wei Hao got up, he was still drawing blueprints, and when the eunuch in the palace came to Wei Hao's house, he asked Wei Hao to go to the palace.

"Is there something to do with the emperor?" Wei Hao looked at the eunuch and asked.

"Go back to Xia Guogong, Your Majesty said that the empress misses you, and I want you to go to the Lizheng Hall for lunch. In addition, I want you to go to the Ganlu Hall first!" the eunuch said to Wei Hao.

"Oh, I'm so busy now, how can I have that time, well, I'll go!" Wei Hao said, and brought the unfinished drawings in his hand, as well as the ruler, the compasses he made, and the pen. As he was about to go to the palace, he was also thinking in his heart, what did Li Shimin ask him for, he was busy now, and soon, Wei Hao arrived at the Ganlu Hall.

"You still know to come, tell yourself, how much leave have you asked for earlier? Why are you at home?" Li Shimin saw Wei Hao coming, sat there, stared at Wei Hao and asked dissatisfied.

"I'm busy. I do things every day except martial arts. I'm so tired that my arm hurts!" Wei Hao stood there, staring at Li Shimin and said dissatisfied.

"What are you busy with? Sleeping late?" How could Li Shimin believe that he was the only one who was still busy.

"Father, you make me sad. I don't want to be busy with iron matters? Do you think I can turn iron ore into iron after I go? I still have that ability? Father, what do you have? There is nothing else, I am busy without me, and I will go to Lizheng Palace to see my mother later!" Wei Hao stood there and said to Li Shimin very unhappy.

"Ah, I'm busy with iron, come, tell me, what are you busy with?" Li Shimin laughed when he heard this, and asked Wei Hao in disbelief at all.

"Father, do you have anything to do?" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin helplessly and asked. When Li Shimin heard this, he became impatient.

"You son of a bitch, talk to your father well, what are you up to?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and cursed.

"Then you can see for yourself!" Wei Hao sat down after speaking, put the drawings, rulers, and compasses on the table of the house, unfolded the drawings, and began to stare at the drawings.

"Eh?" Seeing this, Li Shimin became interested, and immediately got down from his desk, walked to Wei Hao's side, looked at the blueprint, and was confused, what is this, but he knew that this was a blueprint He has seen the drawings of the Ministry of Industry, but there are no details about Wei Hao.

"Father, give me two blank sheets of paper. I want to calculate them!" Wei Hao looked up at Li Shimin and said, Li Shimin immediately pulled out a few blank sheets of paper from his desk and handed them to Wei Hao. Then start counting.

However, Wei Hao's calculations made Li Shimin completely incomprehensible. Now Li Shimin also knows Arabic numerals and the symbols of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, but there are still many symbols he doesn't know. He wondered if Wei Hao deliberately deceived himself to make such a calculation. Once out,
But seeing Wei Hao calculating there with a serious face, after finally calculating the number, Wei Hao started to draw on the drawing with a ruler, and even marked it. What Li Shimin couldn't understand was that the calculated What is the relationship between the numbers and the drawings.

Wei Hao painted very seriously, which made Li Shimin reluctant to bother him.

"Your Majesty, Gao Shilian, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, please see me!" Wang De came in and said to Li Shimin, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials was Hou Junji before, and at the beginning of the year, Gao Shilian took over the position of Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

"Well, please, tell him to speak in a low voice!" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao, and then said to Wang De.

"Yes!" Wang De went out immediately, and specifically explained to Gao Shilian.

"You mean, Shenyong is inside, why?" Gao Shilian looked at Wang De in confusion and asked, Wei Hao was inside, needless to say he should speak in a low voice.

"I don't know the little one. I'm working, but I don't know what to do. His Majesty specifically ordered you to speak in a low voice later!" Wang De continued to talk to Gao Shilian,
Gao Shilian nodded, and soon arrived at the study. The first thing Gao Shilian saw was Wei Hao sitting there drawing something.

"Your Majesty, this is the list that the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs are planning to add recently. Your Majesty, please have a look to see if there is anything that needs to be deleted!" Gao Shilian took out the memorial in a low voice and said to Li Shimin.

"Oh, has the Overwatch Council issued an investigation report on these officials?" Li Shimin asked.

"Return to Your Majesty, it has been issued. I will rank the excellent ones at the front, and I will put the good ones at the bottom. We gave the list to the Overwatch Council before, and they deleted half of the people. Many of them were rated as poor! As for why it's bad, I don't know!" Gao Shilian said immediately.

"Well, I have read the report. Many of the lists you recommended for consideration have not yet completed their terms of office, and their reputation in the local area is mediocre. What's more, the investigation by the Overwatch Council found that many of them have already married with aristocratic families. He got very close, and even became the son-in-law of the noble family, receiving benefits from the noble family. I said that the Ministry of Civil Affairs cannot have people from the noble family, so they were excluded!" Li Shimin took the memorial and watched carefully, confirming For those without a family, Li Shimin picked up his own cinnabar pen and began to annotate. After annotating, he handed it to Gao Shilian.

"Your Majesty, that minister will leave!" Gao Shilian couldn't stay any longer and wanted to talk to Li Shimin, but now that Wei Hao was here, he didn't know what he was painting.
After Gao Shilian left, Li Shimin came to Wei Hao's side again and watched Wei Hao's drawings, but he couldn't understand them.

"Shen Yong, Shen Yong!" Li Shimin called Wei Hao when he saw that Wei Hao seemed to have finished part of his painting.

"Wait a minute, I'll finish drawing this point, or I'll be in trouble if I forget it!" Wei Hao still stared at the drawing, and said, Li Shimin was naturally waiting for Wei Hao, and it was the first time he saw Wei Hao doing it so seriously. One thing, just this, made Li Shimin very satisfied.

"Huh, well, the most important part is finished!" Hu Hao put down the pen and let out a sigh of relief. The pen is afraid of making mistakes. After drawing it several times, after making sure that there is no problem, it will be handed over to the drawing. Thinking of this, Wei Hao thought that it is time to get out the pencil, otherwise, drawing the drawing would be too tiring!
"Shen Yong, what are you drawing?" Li Shimin pointed to the drawing and asked Wei Hao.

"Father, you don't understand the equipment in the steel mill!" Wei Hao said.

"Steel? You mean iron?" Li Shimin asked.

"Steel is steel, and iron is iron. Of course, they are the same, but they are different. Forget it, father, I can't explain it to you!" Wei Hao immediately emphasized to Li Shimin when he heard this, and then found out helplessly. , It seems that I can't explain it clearly to him.

"Well, then there is no need to explain, um, when can we start? Have you finished drawing the blueprint?" Li Shimin said kindly. He now knows that Wei Hao is really not idle, and he is at home thinking about iron matters. Make him very satisfied.

"It's estimated to take five or six days, and there are still a few blueprints. In addition, I have to make a list. You need to prepare those supplies for me, Father. In addition, you also need to give me those craftsmen. Don't worry, Father. Earlier, Erchen said 200 million catties, which is the least amount, maybe it will be 2000 million catties, so you can never use it up, I heard that the aristocratic family also controls the iron, right?" Wei Hao smiled and said Li Shimin said.

"Well. That's no way. Selling salt and iron privately is a capital crime. However, the output of court iron is limited, and the people still need iron. What can I do? I can only turn a blind eye. Look at the current salt, There are very few private salts on the market. Why, the price of official salt is very low now, and private salt can’t be sold at all. Even if they can sell it, they don’t have much profit. Someone sold it, but iron, my father has no way to prohibit it, if it is prohibited, it will delay the farming work and the affairs of the people, and it can only make them make money!" Li Shimin sat there and nodded.

"Father, you can rest assured in the future. As long as the piece of iron is used, it will probably be fine. You can use it as you like in the future. My son will try his best to make it less than ten cents per catty!" Wei Hao stood there, smiling. He said to Li Shimin.

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao in surprise, and then asked anxiously, "The output is really so high."

"That's for sure!" Wei Hao nodded affirmatively.

"Then the aristocratic family don't want to sell iron, well, if you really do it, I will reward you a lot!" Li Shimin said happily to Wei Hao.

"Whether to reward or not, I'm not because of this, father, you can reward me if you want, can you give me a few years off?" Wei Hao sat there, looked at Li Shimin and asked.

"How long? How many years? A few days is about the same!" Li Shimin was furious when he heard what Wei Hao said. He had been on vacation for several years and had never heard of it. Li Shimin will still think about it.

"It's boring, hey, anyway, after I finish the iron, I just manage the library, and I don't care about the rest!" Wei Hao said helplessly while sitting there,

Where will Li Shimin take care of him? If he doesn’t want to work, he can’t. With so many things in the court, Li Shimin has been thinking about whether it’s better to let Wei Hao manage that area. He originally hoped that Wei Hao would be the minister of the Ministry of Industry. But if this kid doesn’t do it, he still needs to use his brain. Not to mention other things, just say that the blueprints he just drew are more than enough to go to the Ministry of Industry, but if he doesn’t go, it will make people distressed.
But at this moment, in Fang Xuanling's residence, Fang Xuanling was sitting in the living room of his house with a dark face, asking the family to call the eldest son Fang Yi to come over.

"My lord, Eldest Young Master and the other young masters of the State are going to Juxian Building for dinner!" the butler came over and reported to Fang Xuanling.

"Eat, he can still eat, let him get out of here, he won't be able to finish this meal!" Fang Xuanling shouted angrily.

"Ah, yes!" The housekeeper felt very strange. Fang Xuanling had always liked Fang Yizhi very much. Why did he get so angry at him today? This is a bit abnormal. What did the eldest son do? The master was so angry, there was nothing he could do, now that Fang Xuanling wanted to call Fang Yizhi back, they had no choice but to call, and when they arrived at Juxian Building, Fangfu's servant went to the box and found Fang Yizhi.

"Eldest son, the master has something urgent to ask you to go back, you'd better go see the master before you have dinner!" Fangfu's servant said directly to Fang Yi.

"My father is looking for me, something important, what is it?" Fang Yi heard it, and was taken aback for a moment. Sitting here for dinner, there were Chang Sun Chong, Gao Shilian's son Gao Xingshi, and Xiao Yu's son Xiao Rui. Well, their fathers were all among the top civil servants in the court, so they often get together.At this time, Changsun Wuji's mansion also sent people over.

"Eldest son, the master told you to go back!" The servant of Changsun Wuji's mansion also said to Changsun Chong.

"This? Let's forget it, we'll meet again next time!" Gao Xing thought about it, and said, two of the four people have gone back, what else to eat?
And at this time, the Gao Mansion also sent people over, calling Gao to fulfill his duties and go back, and they were even more surprised, thinking that something big happened in the court, otherwise, why would they call themselves and others to go back, since they are the eldest son of the family , Something must have happened, Fang Yizhi rushed home when he wanted to explain to them, when he reached the living room, the butler stopped Fang Yizhi.

"Eldest son, be careful, the master is very upset! Did you provoke the master there?" The housekeeper asked Fang Yi directly.

"Ah, no, why didn't I do it! Didn't something happen in the court?" Fang Yizhi was also stunned, did he think wrong?

"I don't know about that, anyway, the master is not happy!" The housekeeper shook his head, reminding Fang Yi and said straight.

"Okay, I see!" Fang Yizhi nodded, and went directly to the living room,

When Fang Xuanling saw that he was back, he was so angry that he immediately took the cup and threw it towards Fang Yi. Fang Yi squatted down and hid, then looked at Fang Xuan in a daze. Ling: "Dad, what's wrong with you?"

"What's wrong with me, you still ask me what's wrong? You bastard, you lost all the money you got, you bastard!" Fang Xuanling was angry. I can't talk about money, but I can't do without money. Besides, the money came from the right way, no one would say anything, and now it's gone.

"What, what money, Dad, I haven't spent a lot of money recently, Dad, you know me, I won't spend money recklessly!" Fang Yi was dumbfounded, is this a misunderstanding?
"The old man asked you, did Cheng Chusi and the others come to you and said that they wanted to build a brick workshop with Wei Hao, ah, didn't they?" Fang Xuanling stood there, staring at Fang Yi and shouting.

"Ah, this, yes, no, Dad, who knew they would be so powerful at the beginning, and now I also know that they can make money, but who would have thought?" Fang Yizhi immediately thought of this matter, and then began to defend himself.

"You know, you know that you are Wei Hao. The old man is still surprised. It stands to reason that the relationship between the old man and Wei Hao is fine. There is no reason not to call you. I didn't expect that they called you. If you don't go, you let What does the old man say, do you know how much profit they make a year? The five of them have to share three to five thousand dollars in profit a year, you bastard!" Fang Xuanling cursed directly angrily.

"This, this, so much?" Fang Yizhi was also dumbfounded at the moment, who would have thought of such a high profit.

"He can pay back his money in a month. Go to his brick shop and see how many people are queuing up to buy bricks, and how many bricks he produces in a day. Oh, I'm so mad!" Fang Xuanling was so angry at the moment. , I feel distressed when I think about it. With so much money, my family’s income is only about 100 yuan a year, and the family’s expenses are also large. It is not bad to be able to save [-] yuan a year. Now is such a good opportunity ,Gone!

And in Changsun Wuji's house, many people directly did it.
