Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 549
Quyuan plow was born in the late Tang Dynasty. Compared with the cumbersome Zhiyuan plow, it is lighter and less labor-saving. It can be said that it is an important invention of agricultural tools.

Now because of the arrival of Gao Ming, a traveler, Qu Yuanli was born more than 200 years earlier, which will definitely play a very important role in promoting the development of agriculture in Datang.

Gao Ming knew this very well, so he wrote down Qu Yuanli's design drawings and production methods completely.

But when he heard that Su Wan'er asked him to dedicate this to Li Shimin, he shook his head.

"Wan'er, you don't know that there are many and complicated procedures in the officialdom. If you need to pass the Ministry of Industry, then even if you wait until next year, Quyuanli may not be popularized in all states and counties of Datang. This is too slow. Already!"

"But……"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Su Wan'er frowned immediately,

"If it doesn't go through the Ministry of Industry, how does Lang Jun plan to spread this Qu Yuanli to the entire Tang Dynasty?"

Seeing Su Wan'er's puzzled expression, Gao Ming suddenly laughed.

"Of course through the Royal Chamber of Commerce!"

"Royal Chamber of Commerce?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Su Wan'er immediately came to her senses, and a flash of enlightenment flashed in her eyes.

"Mr. Lang intends to spread Quyuanli all over the world through businessmen?"

"Correct!"

Seeing that Su Wan'er had come to her senses, Gao Ming nodded.

"Quyuanli is not only a farm tool, but also a commodity. As long as I hand over the drawing of Quyuanli to the Royal Chamber of Commerce, and then ask the Royal Chamber of Commerce to sell the blueprint to other merchants, then the merchants will naturally make money in order to make money. More Quyuanli will be sold everywhere."

Hearing what Gao Ming said, Su Wan'er completely understood, and she nodded immediately.

"So that's what Lang Jun planned. If what Lang Jun said is true, Qu Yuanli will be popularized in the world soon. It's a pity that everyone may not know that Qu Yuanli is made by you, Lang Jun."

Speaking of this, Su Wan'er's complexion suddenly darkened, and she seemed a little disappointed. Seeing this scene, Gao Ming immediately stood up, and then gently hugged her into his arms.

"Wan'er, I got Qu Yuanli out not for fame or profit, but to fulfill my duty as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, so you don't have to feel disappointed for me!"

Speaking of this, Gao Ming immediately held her hand again, and then smiled slightly at her.

"Wan'er, since I am in this position and enjoy so many powers that ordinary people cannot enjoy, I should naturally do my duty. Power and duty are relative!"

"But……"

Su Wan'er originally planned to say something, but before she could open her mouth, she heard a burst of applause coming from the door.

Hearing the applause, the two looked back, and immediately saw Li Shimin in casual clothes walking in from the door while applauding.

Seeing this scene, Su Wan'er blushed immediately, quickly broke away from Gao Ming's embrace, and then bowed to Li Shimin in salute.

"Wan'er has seen her father!"

"Free gift!"

Li Shimin was obviously in a good mood. After waving his hand at Su Wan'er, he smiled at Gao Ming.

"It's good that 'power and obligation are relative'. Gao Ming, your opinion can surprise me every time. If everyone can think like you, maybe I won't be as tired as I am now!"

Hearing Li Shimin's praise, Gao Ming immediately shrugged his shoulders towards him, and then spread his hands towards him.

"It's a pity that it's useless, and it's not good!"

"you……"

Seeing Gao Ming's "philistine" face, Li Shimin couldn't help but give him a blank look, then took out a bag of things from his arms and threw it towards them, but Gao Ming quickly grabbed it.

After grabbing the thing Li Shimin threw over, Gao Ming sighed immediately, then shook his head helplessly.

"I've said it all, don't throw things around. What if you hit a child? Even if you can't hit a child, it's bad if you hit a flower. You're a grown man, and you're still so naughty!"

Li Shimin: "..."

Su Wan'er: "..."

Seeing that there was something wrong with the atmosphere, Su Wan'er said "I'll go and pour tea for Father", and left the study in a hurry.

After she left, Gao Ming also opened the paper bag in his hand, and when he saw what was inside, he was stunned.

"Extreme agarwood? From South Vietnam?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, the corners of Li Shimin's mouth curled up slightly, but he didn't speak, instead he turned his head away from Gao Ming.

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming immediately understood the reason. He immediately helped Li Shimin to sit on the chair with a flattering face, and then consciously held his shoulders for him.

Under Gao Ming's attentive service, Li Shimin finally showed a satisfied smile.

"Ask what you want to ask!"

"Hey, good!"

Gao Ming was waiting for his words, so as soon as his words fell, Gao Ming opened his mouth with a smile.

"Old man, is this the best agarwood sent from Nanyue? You still have a lot, right? Give me some more!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Shimin immediately turned his head and gave him a blank look.

"Do you think this top-quality agarwood is so easy to get? Last year, South Vietnam just had a rebellion, and this year is busy with shipbuilding, and the number of people picking incense is more than double that of previous years. Easy."

In fact, Gao Ming knew what Li Shimin said, because whether it was Yu Chigong's crusade against Nanyue, or ordering the Nanyue Governor's Mansion to build ships, they were all handled by Gao Ming.

And most importantly, it's really not that easy to find such an amber-colored top-quality agarwood.

As the saying goes, it is called "it is easy to go from thrift to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality".

Ever since Gao Ming got used to this top-quality agarwood with six different smells, the kind of dark green agarwood that was fired to a million level in later generations could not catch his eyes, and now Li Shimin sent such a large package of top-quality agarwood To him, he is naturally overjoyed.

Seeing Li Shimin's sulky look, he immediately laughed.

"Hey, I was just joking with you just now. I'm already very happy that you can give me so much. I don't know what's the matter with you coming here this time? Feel free to speak up if you have something to do, as long as it's within my ability, I can't shy away from the definition!"

"..."

Seeing Gao Ming who quickly changed his attitude because of a pack of top-quality agarwood, Li Shimin gave him another unkind look, and then shook his head helplessly.

"Actually, I came this time to tell you two things. The first thing is that Liu Bing will go to sea to find corn soon. What are your plans?"

This news did not exceed Gao Ming's expectations, so he nodded immediately when he heard Li Shimin's words.

"It's about the same as I expected. Presumably after two months of preparation, Liu Bing is almost ready. As soon as the accompanying soldiers sent by Lu Guogong arrive, they can set off. I have already explained to you He's gone, so don't worry about it now, what's the second thing?"

Hearing Gao Ming's question, Li Shimin's eyes suddenly flashed with anger.

"Ashina Helu is rebellious!"
