People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 1105 Expansion of the workshop
Li Shimin waved his sleeves and walked back to his other courtyard. Talking too much with Li Zheng can easily make people angry, and sooner or later he will be pissed off to death.

The summer in Guanzhong is scorching, but fortunately there are many trees planted in Jingyang.

There is quite a bit of shade.

When Li Shimin passed Jingyangfang City, he saw the newly built official road.

This official road was built by Li Zheng four years ago. From Chang'an to Fangshi in Jingyang, there are big trees planted on both sides of the road. The trees are tall and the branches are lush.

This also makes both sides of the official road under the shade of trees.

At a glance, there were quite a few people resting their feet under the shade of the trees, and some even slept directly on the side of the road.

A different kind of scenery also appeared on the pipeline, and both sides of the road were full of people escaping the heat.

It is more comfortable in the shade than sitting at home.

In this kind of weather, the entire city of Chang'an is like a steamer under the scorching sun.

In the crowded city of Chang'an, even at home, he couldn't sit still.

At least sit in the shade and still have some wind.

Li Shimin walked around Jingyangfang City, then returned to the other courtyard.

Back in the other courtyard, Li Shimin picked up the iced watermelon and gnawed.

With ice cubes beside her, Empress Changsun felt quite at ease.

Seeing Li Shimin eating the watermelon bite by bite, Empress Changsun said, "I heard that there is another wind and sandstorm in Longyou."

Li Shimin said in a low voice: "Do you think that the people in the past did something wrong by deforestation for food?"

Empress Changsun said: "The current situation is different, and people make different choices. Who knows if it is right or wrong?"

Li Shimin nodded slightly, agreeing with Empress Changsun's thoughts.

After speaking, Li Shimin washed his face with ice water, and most of the heat disappeared.

Empress Changsun said: "However, Gao Yang encountered something recently."

Gao Yang is currently busy with his own business. The expansion of the workshop will increase the income of the prefectures and counties, thereby increasing income, which is very beneficial to the government and people's livelihood.

Li Shimin is also happy to see it succeed.

Waving the fan in his hand, Li Shimin said, "What trouble does she encounter, and Li Zheng can't settle it?"

Empress Changsun said in a low voice: "Most of the land in Bashang is the fiefdom of Duke Zhao. Gaoyang and the others wanted to build workshops, which could have recruited more than 1000 strong laborers, but at this time, Duke Zhao also began to recruit strong laborers. The pulp mill in Gaoyang could not be built, and it is still under construction."

After listening to Empress Changsun, Li Shimin asked curiously, "What does Mr. Zhao need so many strong laborers for?"

Empress Changsun said in a low voice: "I don't know, but I haven't seen any water conservancy or other fortifications in Bayou."

Li Shimin said again: "Where is Li Zheng? Didn't he do anything?"

Empress Changsun sighed: "Your Majesty also knows what kind of child Li Zhi is. It's fine if someone else is, but she won't say anything if her uncle disturbs her, and she also told Gao Yang not to tell His Majesty, because she is afraid of His Majesty." trouble."

Li Lizhi was a sensible child since she was a child.

The pulp workshop couldn't be expanded in Bashang, so this dumb guy just ate it.

With Jingyang's financial resources, he can't lose much money.

Li Shimin thought about it carefully, but he was wrong, and quickly said: "Is there a [-]% member of the paper making workshop?"

Empress Changsun nodded and said, "Since Your Majesty signed the contract with Li Zheng last time, there have been [-]% members of the papermaking workshop, because the papermaking workshop and the printing factory are together in Jingyang, but the papermaking workshop is part of the printing factory. Not having enough paper can affect the printing speed of the printing shop."

After thinking about it for a while, Li Shimin said, "If the pulp workshop doesn't expand, it won't be my money?"

Empress Changsun said again: "This is not a matter of losing a day or two. Gao Yang has calculated an account. If the workshop in Bashang cannot operate normally, the efficiency of the printing factory will not be improved. If it is completed and can operate normally, the profit can be improved. Thirty percent, and if it is not completed for a day, His Majesty will only lose more and more."

Seeing Li Shimin's expression, Empress Changsun said again: "In other words, His Majesty could eat three bowls, but now he can eat two bowls."

Li Shimin frowned and said: "Changsun Wuji is also the mainstay of the court, but his heart is not so big."

As a junior, Li Zhi would not ask too many questions about matters involving her relatives, nor would she care too much about her elders' decisions.

Gao Yang and Lizhi were in a dilemma, but they didn't expect that it was their uncle who planned it.

Li Shimin shouted: "Wang Ding!"

Wang Ding walked into it with small steps, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the old slave is here."

Li Shimin opened his mouth and said: "Take my words to Changsun Wuji, as the current state prince, he must set an example."

Wang Ding said in a low voice, "Is that all?"

Li Shimin said: "Enough."

Wang Ding hurried to deliver the message.

Li Shimin thought about it and said, "Why do I feel that something is wrong?"

Empress Changsun asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

Li Shimin thought about it and said: "Li Zheng wants to expand the pulp workshop first, and then give me [-]% of it. He knows that Changsun Wuji is bad, and he also knows Lizhi's character, so he gives me [-]% of it."

Empress Changsun sighed and said, "Your Majesty is thinking too much."

Li Shimin said with a straight face: "Li Zheng is not a person who is willing to suffer, and this kind of dumb loss will not be silent. Do you think Li Zheng is the kind of person who will suffer? He is giving trouble to me and letting the outside world The people who know it, no one dares to touch their property in Jingyang.”

Now the more I think about it, the more angry I get.

That night, Li Shimin came to Li Zheng's home, just in time for dinner.

Li Shimin looked at Li Zheng and said, "Seeing that I came to your house for dinner, you still have a stern face."

Li Zheng said with a smile: "Your Majesty's coming to the shabby house really makes my family flourish."

The little si said, "Father, today I have sweet and sour pork ribs, which are delicious."

Li Shimin picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and ate them with relish.

With Li Shimin here, I always feel that the family is a bit cautious about eating, and everyone can't let go.

Even Li Zhi, who can eat the most on weekdays, only ate a bowl of rice.

There is nothing wrong with the dishes.

After dinner, Li Shimin and Li Zheng sat in the yard.

Li Zheng sipped his tea and said, "Your Majesty, you should eat more vegetables and fruits on weekdays. Your Majesty's complexion already shows the symptoms of high blood pressure."

Li Shimin doesn't understand what high blood pressure is, and he can roughly understand that it's not a good thing.

Li Shimin took a sip of tea and said: "You are a member of the paper pulp workshop, so that I can stand in front of you, so that your Jingyang can eliminate some dangers."

Holding the teacup, Li Zheng said, "Your Majesty thinks too badly of me. I just want the real estate in Tubo."

Li Shimin said again: "It seems that no one can stop your Jingyang workshop from expanding in the future."
