Chapter 670 Chang'an Order
With a lot of emotion in his heart, Wang Ding headed all the way to Jingyang.

Walking all the way back to the official road, there are many pedestrians on the official road today.

Walking on the spacious and clean official road made people feel much better.

When Wang Ding came to Fangshi in Jingyang, he bought a piece of cake and ordered a bowl of mutton soup. After two simple bites, he went to the village in Jingyang.

His Majesty also ordered to buy some eye drops to go back.

Wang Ding, the Jingyang guard, is already very familiar with it.

The guards who guarded Wang Ding knew that Wang Ding was the one who conveyed the message to His Majesty, so naturally they would not stop him.

Walking in from the back mountain of Jingyang, after walking out of the back mountain, you will see an idyllic Jingyang suddenly.

A group of children were laughing and laughing in the distance. As they walked towards the village, there were also some dogs barking and women laughing.

There is always life here.

When Li Zheng was found, Li Zheng was making love with the mud.

Wang Ding looked at this scene and said, "Why does Chang'an Ling always have trouble with Ni?"

Li Zheng put down the stick used to stir the mud and said, "Your Majesty doesn't know, this is concrete."

"Concrete?"

Li Zheng explained: "It's hard to explain. It's a very useful building material. It's very strong after use. It can even be used to build city walls."

Wang Ding looked at the mud on the ground and nodded, "Really?"

Li Zheng said again: "I don't know if His Majesty needs it. If you want to repair the city wall in the future, you can use my concrete."

Wang Ding nodded clearly and said, "Let Chang'an worry. The current Chang'an City is very good, and the gates in various places have been repaired, so it should not be needed now."

Li Zheng also said: "It will always be useful in the future. The current Chang'an city wall is pasted with mud and bricks, which is too fragile. Moreover, the climate in Chang'an is not good, and the buildings are seriously weathered. Maybe it will be destroyed in two years." It's going to be repaired again."

Wang Ding nodded with a smile, "I must remember the advice of Chang'an Ling."

As he said that, Wang Ding felt a bit of bitterness in his heart. This Li Zheng couldn't do without business, so he wanted to say hello first, but after he said this, he said that the business went up.

Li Zheng relaxed his limbs, opened the water glass and took a sip of water and said, "Grandpa Wang, the weapons business has resumed recently, so there shouldn't be any troubles."

Wang Ding said: "Don't worry Chang'an Ling, the old slave has already taken care of everything up and down, even if there is a mistake, it will not fall to Chang'an Ling."

"That's right." Li Zheng nodded, "If Your Majesty loses me, there will be no sales channels, so he probably won't sell me."

Wang Ding nodded.

"When the time comes, the prince may be..."

Hearing this, Wang Ding's face became a little stiff, "Don't worry Chang'an, this old slave is loyal to His Majesty and will never betray His Majesty."

Li Zheng smiled strangely, "I haven't said anything yet, why are you nervous, Eunuch Wang?"

Wang Ding wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I'm not nervous, I'm not nervous."

"is it?"

"Yes."

……

The autumn wind blew, and Wang Ding was a little messy. He wiped his sweat and said, "Chang'an ordered so much time and mud. Is the mud worth much?"

Li Zheng recorded his experimental records and said: "Actually, I have made concrete a long time ago. Now I just try a better formula. The truth always appears in practice. With concrete, roads and buildings can be built." house."

"That's right." Li Zheng put down the pen in his hand and said, "Eunuch Wang, I plan to build another road."

"Build another road?" Wang Ding thought for a while, "It's a good thing, there are indeed many official roads around Chang'an that need to be repaired, but the palace is tight, and money is needed everywhere, and His Majesty will not be able to spend so much for a while. Money is used to build roads, and I am afraid..."

Having said that, Wang Ding stopped again.

Li Zheng said: "I'm also afraid that the courtiers will impeach His Majesty and recruit people's power. After all, Yang Guang is a lesson from the past, right?"

Wang Ding nodded.

"If I were to do this, not only would your majesty save money, but your majesty would not have to bear the infamy. On the contrary, it is me who bears the infamy, the one who does the work, and the one who spends the money. The good and the bad are mine. , the hard work is all mine, Your Majesty only needs to sit back and enjoy the fruits, right?"

Wang Ding nodded, "Chang'an Ling is so enlightened."

Li Zheng shook the fan in his hand and said, "Aren't I cheap?"

Wang Ding smiled dryly, "This old slave is asking me a lot, why does Chang'an Ling always think about building roads?"

Li Zheng looked melancholy, "I want to get rich."

Wang Ding said again: "After the official roads between Jingyang and Chang'an have been repaired, it has indeed brought a lot of business to Jingyang. Build another one? It shouldn't be so. Chang'an Ling doesn't seem like a person who will suffer."

"If I say that I'm just distributing all my wealth for the country and society of the Tang Dynasty, will the prince trust me?"

Wang Ding shook his head vigorously.

Li Zheng looked melancholy, "I really don't believe it, well, in fact, I build roads to accumulate virtue for myself. I have done too many bad things at this young age. Lightning strikes, is it now believed?"

Wang Ding nodded.

"..."

"You can see that the relationship between people is so complicated. It's hard to be a good person."

Wang Ding said with a dry smile: "If Chang'an Ling wants to build roads, he can write a memorial, and this old slave can pass it on to His Majesty."

Li Zheng took out a memorial and a blueprint from his pocket, "It's all ready."

Wang Ding carefully put it away and said, "Chang'an Order, eye drops."

"Eye drops?"

"En." Wang Ding nodded, "The eye drops in His Majesty's Palace are about to run out."

Li Zheng said again: "How much does the prince want."

Wang Ding said again: "You don't need too much, a dozen or so bottles will do."

Li Zheng said in a low voice: "Eunuch Wang, you said that I am the only one who has this eye drops in the entire Central Plains, right?"

Wang Ding nodded, "It is indeed as Chang'an Ling said, the old slave has also checked, this eye drops is indeed only available in Chang'an Ling, but His Majesty also said that if Chang'an Ling dares to sit on the ground and raise the price, His Majesty will definitely let Long Wujun Trample Jingyang."

"So cruel?" Li Zheng asked in surprise.

"Let's make an order from Chang'an," Wang Ding said.

"Then how about this, if your majesty can buy a thousand bottles at a time, I can give you a discounted price, one bottle is only one hundred guan."

"A bottle of one hundred guan, a thousand bottles is..."

"Forget it." Li Zheng interrupted Wang Ding, "I only have one copy of this eye drop, and besides, when the crown prince and King Wei wanted to buy eye drops, a bottle of eye drops cost thousands of guan, one hundred guan for one. bottle, starting at [-] bottles."

Wang Ding still hesitated.

Li Zheng went on to say: "Only the prince and I know the price of a bottle of one hundred guan. Your Majesty can use eye drops to reward the courtiers. Now the entire court knows how much the eye drops are worth."

Wang Ding nodded.
