Chapter 286
Chapter 282

Li Shimin and the others were very shocked to visit. They found that this is a small town, with 2 people living here, and the roads are so well repaired. This is more than the population of many cities. If you count those workers and their families Come here, at least [-] people can live here.

Soon they were on those roads.

"Your Majesty, this is a road dedicated to transporting coal. It leads directly to the coal yard 30 miles away. The coal yard was also discovered by Wei Hao. Now there are workers digging coal there and transporting it here at the same time." Changsun rushed to Wei Wei Hao said.

"Coal can be burned, isn't it afraid of poisoning? And it's not easy to burn, right?" Fang Xuanling asked the eldest grandson at this moment.

"It can be burned, it's very easy to burn, anyway, we don't know what happened, it's all done by Wei Hao!" Fang Yi said straight to Fang Xuanling.

"Well, I found a lot of new things. There is also this road, but it is well repaired. Who is responsible for the road?" Li Shimin asked with a smile.

"Return to Your Majesty, it's me, and the construction was done according to Shen Yong's drawings. These roads are very strong, and it is estimated that they will not be bad in three to five years! After all, there are so many carriages running here every day, and according to Shen Yong's drawings It is required that there are 4 workers who specialize in maintenance, they inspect the roads and repair the roads every day, and it is estimated that there will be no problems in ten years, and there will be no major repairs within ten years!" Chang Sun Chong immediately reported to Li Shimin.

"Only ten years?"

"It's only been ten years!".
When the ministers heard this, they all looked at Chang Sun Chong in surprise, it was too short.

"You also have to look at how many horse-drawn carts pass by here every day. Let's just say, there are 1000 horse-drawn carts every day at the coal yard, full of coal and stones, transported here! This way of rolling every day, can it not rot quickly?

If you don’t understand, don’t talk nonsense. Besides, this place is not built according to the standard of the straight road. Even if it is a straight road, if we go like this, we probably won’t be able to withstand it for ten years! "The eldest grandson is furious. They still don't like this kind of road.

"I found out that you are really, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, you just know what you know, you can't understand any item here, why are there so many words?" Cheng Chuliang said unwillingly at the moment.

"That's right, what do you know about sitting in the courtroom every day?" Li Deju also looked at those ministers with contempt.

"you!"

"Okay, listen to them, you really don't understand!" Li Shimin immediately stopped them, not letting them continue talking.

At this moment, the sun is already high and a little hot.

"Okay, let's go to the factory to have a look. Aren't we going to open the second furnace today? Let them see it!" Li Shimin said to them.

When they heard it, they led them to the factory building.

When we got to the first stove, the fire has been turned off here, and a lot of iron was sold out yesterday, and now we are loading coal and iron ore, so there are many people working here.

"Your Majesty, this is the iron that came out of the stove two days ago. It's all here, more than 5 catties, and each piece here is 100 catties. The total is more than 500 yuan. It's still hot now!" Fang Yi faced Li Shimin said.

"Oh, it was delivered last time. The Ministry of Industry will transport all these irons away!" Li Shimin nodded and said.

"Yes, but Shen Yong said that steelmaking is still needed, and steelmaking needs iron!" Fang Yizhi said immediately.

But at this moment, Fang Xuanling found that her son was different from before, less bookish, but also learned to speak actively.

"Well, that's fine, listen to Wei Hao!" Li Shimin nodded, and then went to the first factory building with his hands behind his back.

When those people went inside, they were shocked to see that the factory building was very high, especially the furnace near the inside, which was even more majestic, and there were stairs to go up.

After the workers saluted Li Shimin, Li Shimin asked them to keep busy while he watched them work.

The workers continued to pour iron ore and coal into it, and the officials looked at it. It was not very hot inside, and the temperature was about the same as the outside, so the ministers felt nothing. Fang Yi told them to Li Shimin They introduce those functions of the stove in detail.

After the introduction, Fang Yizhi led them to the second room.

At this moment, Fang Yizhi and the others are very smart. Everyone immediately went in with a large cup of water. These cups were specially fired by the pottery workshop. A total of 3 cups were fired, costing more than 3000 yuan. , each worker issued one, and Fang Yizhi had one with them.

As soon as those people entered, they felt the heat wave rushing inside. It was already very hot now, and with the temperature inside the stove, the temperature inside had to exceed 50 degrees at least.

And they also saw that the workers working inside were all wearing shorts and shorts similar to those of Wei Hao and the others, but they were all made of coarse cloth.

"It's so hot!" Li Shimin was wearing a long gown at the moment, and so were the ministers. Now, many ministers began to sweat wildly on their foreheads, but now that Li Shimin didn't speak, they didn't dare to speak.

"Your Majesty, today, this furnace of iron is going to be produced, and it can be produced now!" Chang Sun Chong looked at Li Shimin and said.

"Let's go out now, let's see and see!" Li Shimin said to his eldest grandson.

"This, can it come out? We still need to ask Wei Hao!" Fang Yi said straight to Chang Sun Chong.

"Yes, yes, if you can come out, you have to ask Wei Haocai, we still don't understand!" Chang Sun Chong also said immediately.

"It's possible, Duke Xia told me just now!" Dajiang Wang came over at this moment and said to them.

"Okay, let's turn on the stove, Your Majesty, you stand here, everyone needs to prepare now, you stand there, blocking the way of the workers!" Fang Yizhi immediately shouted at them.

"Start preparations, the iron is about to come out!" Changsun Chong shouted loudly.

They found that someone carried the iron trough and placed it next to the stove, and then a large number of people pushed the bucket to the other exit of the iron trough, waiting here.

"Are you ready?" Fang Yizhi shouted loudly.

"Ready!" The workers also shouted loudly.

"Okay, get ready, I'll count to three!" Fang Yi shouted directly.

All the workers were staring at the iron trough.

As for Wei Zheng and the others, they felt very uncomfortable at the moment. They were sweating profusely, and they couldn't even wipe them clean. Some ministers already felt uncomfortable.

And Li Shimin also feels the same way. Now he feels that his back is soaked and uncomfortable, but there is no way. Now they also want to know how the iron came out and whether it really weighs 10 catties. .

"One, two, three, open the furnace!"

"Open the furnace!" All the workers yelled loudly. Then, the workers opened the door valve, and the red iron slurry flowed out from inside, and flowed into the bucket through the iron groove. When it was full, it was pulled away immediately, and another bucket took over. On, very fast.

And those officials felt even hotter, and there was almost no place to hide.

The workers worked very quickly, transporting buckets one after another. They were working very intensively at this time.

"Your Majesty, now is the most tiring time. Basically, everyone has to go out for a rest three times, and the next shift will come up. It's so hot, and we have no choice but to wear such clothes to work. Respect Your Majesty, because you are coming to the factory today, we will get dressed in advance!" Fang Yizhi immediately said to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin nodded, of course he knew that he was drenched from inside to outside now, and some ministers in the back couldn't stand it anymore, but they didn't dare to leave since Li Shimin didn't leave.

"Your Majesty, this is water for you. Salt has been added to it. It's a bit salty. You can't do without salt. You sweat too much. The water we drink is also salted!"

At this time, Fang Yizhi brought over two cups and handed one cup to Li Shimin.

"Okay, okay, I'm thirsty too." Li Shimin immediately took it and drank it dry in one gulp.

And Fang Yi directly handed the other cup to Fang Xuanling, Fang Xuanling took it and drank it dry, and Changsun Chong brought the water to Changsun Wuji's side, and the others did the same, they all brought water to his own father.

But the other civil servants, they don't care, whether you like to drink or not.

"Hey, it's comfortable, it's hot, Your Majesty, can I take off my clothes? I can't stand it!" Cheng Yaojin asked Li Shimin after drinking the water.

"No, you can't take it anymore, Wei Hao and the others were here every day before!" Li Shimin said.

The other ministers just looked at Li Shimin, and then at Wei Zheng, thinking in their hearts, what are you impeaching if you have nothing to do.

Now Wei Zheng is also very uncomfortable, water can be wrung out of his clothes, and he is so thirsty, he really wants to go out, but now Li Shimin is standing there without moving, and they can only stand here.

After a while, a few people from outside came in carrying water, and began to pour water around the stove. The water didn't stay on the ground for long, and was quickly evaporated to dryness.

"Your Majesty, look, at this speed, it will be finished in three hours!" Fang Yi continued to say to Li Shimin.

"Hmm. So fast?" Li Shimin nodded.

"Yes, the workers here work very intensively, so the construction of those houses and canteens is to solve their personal life problems and give them more time to rest." Fang Yizhi continued to speak.

"Okay! It should be! It should be!" Li Shimin nodded and continued to watch.

In fact, there is nothing to look at, he just wants to vent his anger on his son-in-law, and let those ministers feel the difficulty here, otherwise, they will impeach Wei Hao, whether it is annoying or not, anyway, he has water to drink .

At this time, a minister behind fainted.

The other ministers also panicked.

"Hurry up, take him out and feed him water, he must have fainted from the heat, he's suffering from heat stroke!" Fang Yizhi shouted immediately.

Several soldiers came and carried him out. Once outside, the minister felt much better, especially after drinking salt water.

"Get them some water too!" Li Shimin said directly to Fang Yi.

"Yes, bring salt water over here, get them a scoop!" Fang Yizhi shouted immediately, and then someone came over with water, and there were five or six scoops in it. They started scooping up water to drink, but whether it was unhygienic or not, after drinking, they felt much more comfortable, but they sweated more.

Those ministers now feel uncomfortable all over, sweating, how can they be comfortable.

About half an hour later, Li Shimin brought those ministers out, and saw irons neatly placed outside, and now they can see the heat wave on them!

"Huh, it's much more comfortable, Your Majesty, can I take off your clothes? You son of a bitch, go and get a set of your clothes, the old man can't take it anymore!" Cheng Yaojin said to Li Deju.

"Wait a minute, why are you in a hurry, we were always like this before, wet clothes are worn for a day!" Cheng Chuliang said to Cheng Yaojin.

"You!" Cheng Yaojin was so angry, he didn't impeach them.

"Well, let's go, let's go to other furnaces, they seem to be making iron?" Li Shimin asked while sitting there.

"Yes, they are all smelting iron, but there is still one furnace that has not been turned on. It was originally planned to start smelting today. Isn't your majesty coming over, so it stopped. I don't know whether to smelt tomorrow, Wei Hao Over there, I might really quit!" Fang Yizhi said immediately.

"Do it, can you not do it? If he doesn't do it, who will do it?" Li Shimin said immediately.

Then I took those ministers to other factories, and those ministers twisted their clothes behind, and they were able to wring out water. Many ministers were also very envious of those workers who wore short sleeves, it was so comfortable!
And Wei Zheng stopped talking at the moment, knowing that there was a problem with the impeachment just now, working here, without wearing such clothes, there is no way to work, and when they went to other stoves, they also found that the inside was very hot, Those workers still have to add things to the stove from time to time, there is no way it is so hot, after all, many things still need to be operated by them!
"Your Majesty, this furnace will be able to be turned on the day after tomorrow. The following furnaces are like this. Now we just want to know if there will be any other problems if we continue to refine this furnace. You have to explore, as long as there is no problem with the second furnace, then it is basically certain that there will be no problem, and we will be able to serve the court!" Chang Sun Chong introduced to Li Shimin.

"Well, not bad, really good! Each stove is 10 catties, isn't it?" Li Shimin nodded and continued to ask.

"Yes, roughly 10 jin. After all, there is no way to be specific, but it is about the same, about 2000 jin!" Chang Sun Chong nodded and said.

"It's really good. Who of you can think of such a stove, who can build it? This can't be done with money. Who of you has such a skill?" Li Shimin stood there and asked the ministers Dao, those ministers did not speak.

"You impeached Wei Hao to build those houses in the court, why? Shouldn't they be built? You have also seen the conditions under which the workers work. Why not build such a house to make them live more comfortably? Huh? You It is said that Wei Hao spends money indiscriminately. Is this a waste of money? Here, it only cost more than 19 yuan. Which of you will get 19 yuan? No, add 10 yuan and 29 yuan to repair one.
And here, Wei Hao also said that it can make money, and it doesn’t take a year to get back the money. If I don’t say one year, it doesn’t get back the money. Iron is also a material that our court urgently needs. Are you still impeaching it?What is it like to transfer benefits to the brick workshop, the brick workshop still needs to transfer, you go to the brick workshop now to see, there is still a queue there,

Moreover, the brick workshop in Luoyang can produce 5 bricks and 20 tiles a day. There are still queues there, and these still need to be transported?This is not how you impeach, right? "Li Shimin shouted to those ministers angrily at this moment.

The ministers heard this and dared not speak.

"The matter of impeachment, let it go. I don't want to hear about your impeachment about Tiefang. It's easy for you to impeach. I don't know how to coax Wei Hao later. Now that Wei Hao is quitting, let me tell you, If Wei Hao quits, you guys will do it here, if you can't get iron, I'll ask you!" Li Shimin shouted angrily at the ministers.

I thought in my heart, how should I persuade this kid, what should I do if he is too stubborn and quits?

Now and in the future, Wei Hao is inseparable. Although it can operate normally, if the parts are broken or other problems arise, what will happen at that time? Li Shimin estimates that no one knows about these ministers. It still depends on Wei Hao.

"Okay, now you guys also go to have a rest, dry off your clothes, and have lunch here at noon. I have brought the imperial chef over and the ingredients, let's go!" Li Shimin said with his hands behind his back. Go back, now I'm going to persuade Wei Hao.

And Wei Hao has already fallen asleep on the soft bed at this moment, Li Yuan is sitting there drinking tea with Li Dejian, and now the two of them are also afraid that Wei Hao will leave, after all Wei Hao has packed his things and may want to leave at any time Walk.

At this time, Li Shimin also came in.

"Your Majesty!" Li Dejian saw Li Shimin coming, and immediately stood up. Li Shimin also saw Wei Hao who was lying there sleeping.

"Wake up Hao'er!" Li Shimin said helplessly to Li Dejian, and Li Dejian immediately went to push Wei Hao.

"Who is wrong?" Wei Hao sat up reluctantly, saw Li Shimin standing there, stood up and cupped his hands at Li Shimin and said, "I have seen my father!"

"Well, come and sit down and say, I'm here to make tea!" After Li Shimin finished speaking to Wei Hao, he looked at Li Yuan. Li Yuan stood up, stepped aside, and sat down next to him. Wei Hao also sat next to Li Yuan. As for Fang Xuanling, he sat around the tea table, as for Fang Yizhi and the others, they all stood behind, and Li Shimin was very skilled at making tea.

"Hao'er, my father apologizes to you for this matter!" Li Shimin said first, and the other ministers immediately looked at Wei Hao.
