The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1339
Ever since Li Anyan was dismissed from the East Palace, he has been wandering around in Chang'an City, doing nothing, being a loose official with a meager salary, hanging out with Du He and his ilk all day long, and not having much contact with the palace.

But it was such a person, how could he get on with that alchemist?A few days ago that alchemist was very popular in the palace, so what did Li Anyan want to do to get acquainted with such a person?
Could it be that Li Anyan, like Zhang Liang, believed in these warlocks and alchemists?I'm afraid it's not the case. If so, Li Anyan will definitely not take the initiative to visit Zhang Liang when he hears about the alchemist. This is to make it clear that he will send his alchemist to Zhang Liang's house. Do you expect Zhang Liang to help him?Or is there some other purpose?
In any case, Xuan Shijing has already become curious about this matter, not to mention that this alchemist was originally Xuan Shijing's target, it was Li Anyan, who had a very good relationship with Du He, and the dragon head was originally used as a material for the new palace. Li Anyan has been running around a lot in the process, how could Xuan Shijing not pay attention to such a person?Besides, so many strange things happened to this man.

It's always good to keep an eye out, and you'll suffer later if you save.

Chang Le went to run errands, and Xuan Shijing came to the gate of the engineering college alone. The gate of the engineering college had been closed tightly. Xuan Shijing stood in front of the door and knocked on the knocker on the gate. The knocker and the iron gate The impact makes a crisp sound.

The porter inside came out after hearing the voice, and saw Xuan Shijing.

"Open the door." Xuan Shijing said, and as he spoke, he showed his sign to the porter.

The concierge saw Xuan Shijing, and he didn't need Xuan Shijing to use the sign to verify his identity, but Xuan Shijing didn't want to break the rules. After reading the sign, the concierge opened the door and let Xuan Shijing enter the engineering college.

"How many people are left in the Engineering College?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"If you go back to the lord, [-]% of the people in this courtyard have gone to Longshouyuan. There are not many people left. Most of them are young people who are not so skilled in craftsmanship. They are still apprentices. Going to Longshouyuan, they are all newcomers, so it’s useless to go, so I stayed.” said the porter.

"So that's how it is." Xuan Shijing said: "Okay, you go back, I will walk around the academy by myself."

"Yes." The porter replied.

As for the matter of Li Anyan and Zhang Liang, Xuan Shijing left it to Chang Le and Jin Yiwei to investigate. He just waited for the results. Anyway, he still had to live in Chang'an City for two days, so there was no rush.

Zhang Liang's reputation is not very good, so there are not many people in Chang'an City who are willing to associate with him. Everyone understands what is going on, and Zhang Liang probably understands it in his own heart, but he still does his own thing and is not affected by the outside world. .

And Zhang Liang, who is unpopular in Chang'an City, no matter how high the official position is, no matter how high the title is, no one will come to Zhang Liang if he wants to be an official, but Li Anyan just used this alchemist , found Zhang Liang, what did he want to do?Continue your career?If you want to continue your official career, finding Zhang Liang will really ruin your future.

His Majesty Li Er was already a little dissatisfied with Zhang Liang because the five hundred adopted sons in the house were too flamboyant. If Li Anyan did this, wouldn't he be hitting himself in the muzzle?

Anyone with a discerning eye can see Zhang Liang's status. If Zhang Liang is still so ostentatious and doesn't know how to restrain himself, he will not be able to stay in Chang'an City sooner or later. It took so many years of hard work to get to this position, coupled with not being good at handling interpersonal relationships, although His Majesty recites his hard work for many years, how many times can he recite his hard work?When the emperor no longer protects him, sooner or later he will be attacked by the crowd.

While thinking about his own affairs, Xuan Shijing strolled around the engineering college. Wherever he looked, many young apprentices were holding tools in their hands, using leftovers from the students to train themselves, or making some Existing finished products, or according to your own ideas, make some strange things.

Regardless of whether it is following the rules or being innovative, all in all, these young people in the College of Engineering are still very energetic. Losing the vitality of exploration is the greatest tragedy, because without exploration, they can only stand still. In the end, it will be surpassed sooner or later.

Therefore, the School of Engineering encourages apprentices to explore and innovate, and lay a solid foundation while exploring.

Walking around, Xuan Shijing sighed, this engineering college has really become rich by relying on these people. Now it can not only maintain the consumption in the college, but also save a lot of money, but the money is not piled up. Importantly, it has always been stored in the treasury of the engineering college, and there is a special account room to keep track of income and expenditure.

All in all, it would be great if it can continue to operate normally. In a few years, the Institute of Engineering will be even more brilliant than it is now, because the apprentices who will come here in a few years will not be just ordinary apprentices, but will be a group of Apprentices who have received basic education, went to school, read books and learned to read and write. If this is passed down from generation to generation, more and more elites will be cultivated, and more and more books will be written for recording. Some people enter engineering colleges, and there are books recorded by the predecessors for them to read.

This is inheritance.

There is a pier in the backyard of the Engineering College. Go out from the pier here, and you will see Xuanwu Lake when you get out of the water gate. There are three boats moored beside the pier, two small ones, and one large enough to be called a boat. Well, this boat should have been custom-made by someone in Chang'an City. Anyway, the Engineering College can't use such a big boat.

As for the larger ones, they are just a pile of blueprints lying on the table. Moreover, Xuanwu Lake is only suitable for making a model. Real large-scale ships, even warships, are difficult to deploy here.

Just such a painting boat probably costs hundreds of copper coins. As for the price of materials, it doesn't cost that much, and that's how the engineering college makes money.

The College of Engineering is getting better and better, and Xuan Shijing is happier in his heart. At least, his painstaking efforts and dedication have finally yielded sweet fruits today. At least he has made a visible contribution to Datang. , I didn't go through this life in this world for nothing.

The craftsmen of the Institute of Engineering are precious to the Institute of Engineering, Xuan Shijing, and even the imperial court. The imperial court has also realized the value of the Institute of Engineering, but although the Institute of Engineering is actually still Xuan Shijing was calling the shots, but nominally he was still under the name of Wei Wang Li Tai, and the Ministry of Industry did not dare to point fingers at Li Tai, nor did he dare to extend his hand to Li Tai, so he gave up.
