Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 861 Li Yuan Is Sick
After the elders of the Xiao clan finished speaking, another person asked: "I'm waiting to run a workshop to earn money, so there's no need to go through this troubled water."

Before the Xiao clan could open their mouths, one person immediately said: "Confused, this is short-sighted. Goguryeo's labor and raw material costs are less than one-seventh of that of Datang. I'm afraid everyone can do such calculations. Why can you I’m going to invest and participate.”

That person was not convinced, and immediately retorted: "This is given to Mrs. Xiao by Concubine Liu."

"ridiculous."

Most of the people shook their heads, and the elder of the Xiao clan said slowly at this time: "I, the Xiao family, don't think that my daughter has such a big face that she can win this business for nothing. Do you know that once the workshop is over Once completed, the Lingnan Xigang Shipbuilding Division alone will purchase more than one million porcelain vases every year."

"There is only one reason. While doing this business, we also need to contribute to the imperial court. Now, we have to discuss a rule. How to form a joint stock company in this matter, each company has its own responsibility. If it is just to invest some coins, then please! "

The door opened, but no one left.

If you want to get the corresponding benefits, you must pay.

Three of the seven great merchants need skills.

The technology of printing porcelain vase patterns is controlled by these three companies.

The Xiao family didn't dare to monopolize such a business, and attracted many families in the south of the Yangtze River to participate in the shares. Before the willow people arrived in the country of the thousand islands, the first batch of sample bottles of the Xiao family had already been fired.

Together with the project planning book containing a large rattan box, etc., they were sent to Chang'an.

When Liumu arrived in the country of Thousand Islands, Zhang Gongjin did not go to inspect the island. There is not even a seventh-rank official here, and there are only stewards on the pier, and various procurement envoys.

Liu Mu asked someone for two days before he knew the approximate location of Great Tang Emperor Li Yuan.

After spending another ten days searching, Liu Mu continued to find Li Yuan in the southeast of the main island.

Li Yuan was wearing loose clothes of gray linen, sitting alone in a hut, looking at a mountain from afar.

Liu Mu signaled Xie Xing'er to take someone to find a place to relax, and then came to sit beside Li Yuan.

Li Yuan just turned his head to glance at Liu Mu, and then returned his gaze to the distant hill.

"Father, what's so special about that mountain?"

Li Yuan put a coconut in front of Liu Mu: "Don't you know?"

Liu Mu didn't answer immediately, but sat there and looked at the mountain from a distance.

About half an hour later, suddenly a column of smoke rose from the top of the mountain, and the shed where Liu Mu and Li Yuan were sitting shook slightly twice.

"volcano."

"By the way, it's a volcano. I was going around here by boat to see what's interesting in this country of thousands of islands. You don't know that the mountain suddenly shook on the spot that day, and then the flames shot up into the sky, and it was hundreds of miles away. You can feel the shocking power."

Li Yuan was talking about a volcanic eruption he encountered.

Li Yuan raised his finger and pointed to the volcano: "I have been here for a full month. There was a very powerful one ten days ago. Standing here, you can see the red flowing down half the mountain. The black clouds in the sky were counted only the day before yesterday." Disperse. Someone told me that it was the molten stone that turned into red water, just like molten iron."

"Father?" Liu Mu didn't quite understand why Li Yuan was feeling this.

Li Yuan said again: "When I came here, I encountered a strong wind, and I was really frightened. One of the six boats was seriously damaged, and even the mast was broken. When I saw Zhang Gongjin, I was the only one beside me. Two boats were lost, one was pulling the damaged boat to find a nearby place to repair it, and the other one thought the damage was not serious, but before it reached the wharf in the bay, it hurriedly found a place to dock for emergency repairs."

Liu Mu asked tentatively: "Father is talking about the majesty of the heaven and the earth."

Li Yuan nodded heavily: "That's it. Father has seen a lot in the past few months, and he also heard that there will be huge waves hundreds of feet high for the boatmen who are on the sea all the year round. The wooden house and people were blown away without a trace by the strong wind, and the wooden house and people were found dozens of miles away after the strong wind passed.”

"Why does the emperor suddenly have such emotion?"

Liu Mu didn't understand at all what happened to Li Yuan.

Li Yuan shook his head with a smile, and continued to look at the volcano from a distance.

Liu Mu left and found Peng Hai.

Peng Hai said to Liu Mu: "Prince Liu, it's been a long time. After the Supreme Emperor knew the news that Xieli was captured alive, people became very strange."

"What kind of strange method?"

"I'm not interested in good wine. When we passed by Jiangnan, we didn't even glance at the giant horse. Just arrived in the country of thousands of islands, the Supreme Emperor sat under a tree and watched a bird build a nest. We watched it for five days. After arriving here, I thought that the Supreme Emperor Just wanted to take another look at the eruption, but look..."

After Peng Hai finished speaking, Liu Mu asked, "Is there a medical officer to check?"

"The doctor said that the pulse direction is normal, it may be a heart disease."

Liu Mu didn't ask any more questions. There was no psychiatrist in this era of Tang Dynasty, and there was no good doctor for things like heart disease.

If you really have a heart disease, nine out of ten you will be fooled by liars, or you will be deceived again by the temple.

Liu Mu returned to Li Yuan's side again: "Father, do you want to go to the sky to see?"

"I think so, but they won't let Father use the flying wings. Father has seen it in Haili, and it's a wonderful sight."

Liu Mu asked again: "How about playing mahjong?"

"It's boring."

After Liu Mu asked a few more questions, Li Yuan didn't even want to say anything.

Liu Mu finds Peng Hai.

"I feel that the emperor is a heart disease. This has been cruel for decades, and I feel that there is nothing to do in my heart. Datang is under the supervision of today's sages, and the people of Thailand. Overseas, Datang is always disadvantaged. I originally thought Find a job for the Supreme Emperor, but the Supreme Emperor doesn't seem to be interested in everything."

Peng Hai nodded.

There is one thing Peng Hai didn't say, that is, Peng Hai has already used Liu Mu's method once.

Peng Hai asked Liu Mu: "Prince Liu, are you here on business?"

"Originally, there are two things. The first is to see how the father is doing here, and the other is to discuss with Manager Zhang about the planned production of various raw materials in the Thousand Islands Country next year, especially hemp. I want to know a realistic number, it's important."

Willow didn't think there was anything to hide about these things.

Peng Hai nodded: "Grand Zou's body is recovering slightly, and he has made great plans for the country of a thousand islands. The miscellaneous family knows that he is no longer looking for abacas to chop, but planting abacas on some wasteland. Ma, also arranged for people to repair roads, and repaired many small rivers that can be used for boats."

"I saw it in Dagang, and it was indeed a great effort."

Liu Mu said to Peng Hai: "But what you don't know is that according to the forecast of my general secretary, the demand for linen is about [-] times that of last year. This data is estimated by the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Industry. We are amending some regulations to increase the production of linen."

Peng Hai said with emotion: "My Tang Dynasty is about to enter the prosperous age!"
