The first emperor of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 210 Continuous shock

Seafood with chili, it is definitely strong enough to eat in your mouth, and Li Chengqian's exquisite Zhenguanzui, it is full of praise from everyone present.

Eat it, but Li Shimin still didn't forget, and asked Li Chengqian how he transported the live seafood to Chang'an City.

"Father, this matter is actually very simple. The main thing is temperature, oxygen and humidity. We can use the seawater from the sea to solve the humidity."

"Oxygen is even simpler. Father should have seen the bellows used for blacksmithing. Erchen modified the bellows a little and connected it to the wheels of the carriage."

"As the wheels turn, the bellows will be pulled. Then the bellows will be connected to the fish tank with bamboo tubes. This will blow air continuously into the water. This will ensure sufficient oxygen in the water."

"The last thing is to cool down, and the method used by Erchen is even simpler. That is to use ice cubes to cool down the water tank containing seafood." Li Chengqian said while gesticulating.

Li Shimin couldn't help but nodded after hearing this, but suddenly he seemed to think of something again.Then he opened his mouth and asked Li Chengqian: "The ice cubes in winter can be solved, but where do you find so many ice cubes in summer?"

"Even if you set up ice cellars along the way, I'm afraid there won't be enough ice for you to use. You can't make ice cubes in summer."

"Father, you are really right. My son can indeed produce ice cubes in summer. Then store them in ice cellars along the way for use by the convoy transporting seafood." Li Chengqian nodded and said.

"You brat started to brag again, people can't breathe in the heat of summer. You can freeze water into ice, thinking you are the Dragon King." Cheng Yaojin said after curling his lips.

"I said Cheng Yaojin, can you stop talking? If it wasn't for you just now, would I have lost the three hundred elite soldiers?" Yu Chigong said after glaring at Cheng Yaojin.

"I said big old black, are you doing a bad job? Although my old Cheng can't read much, I still know that eight hundred and one are divided into four hundred." Cheng Yaojin said to Yu Chigong with his eyes wide open. .

"You have to offer five hundred this time, because without you, I wouldn't bet with him. So you have to offer the big one." Yu Chigong said with a righteous expression on his face.

"Don't give me this trick. If you win, can you take one less thing?" Cheng Yaojin threw the crab in his hand on the table, and said to Yu Chigong with raised eyebrows.

"I don't care, anyway, you are the mastermind of this matter. I just suffered an innocent disaster." Yu Chigong said with a face of indifference.

Seeing that the two were not finished, Xu Maogong said: "Can you two calm down for a while, now His Royal Highness said that he can make ice in summer."

"If you two don't believe me, you can take a gamble with His Royal Highness. If you win, everything will be even."

"Yes, let's gamble with him again. I don't believe that he can turn water into ice for no reason." Cheng Yaojin nodded hurriedly.

"If you want to do it yourself, don't count me in. At worst, I'll send him three hundred absolute elites tomorrow." Yu Chigong shook his head and said.

Now, no matter what Cheng Yaojin said, Yu Chigong knew that he was an accomplice.300 people have already suffered a big loss.

Li Chengqian watched the two old princes refuse to give in to each other, so he smiled and said: "I have something good here, so I can make this bet."

"You can take whatever you like, even if you take out the emperor's golden dragon armor, I, Yu Chigong, won't bother with that." Yuchigong said with his head shaking like a rattle, without oil or salt.

Li Chengqian ignored Yu Chigong, but waved to Jiang Chengzu not far away.Then he asked Jiang Chengzu to fetch a Zhuge Liannu.

Li Chengqian held the Zhuge Liannu in his hand, and shot frantically at the arrow target that Jiang Chengzu had just set up.

Ten consecutive crossbow arrows all hit the red heart, but Li Chengqian did not stop.Instead, he took ten crossbow arrows from Jiang Chengzu's hand and quickly installed them in the crossbow box of Zhuge Liannu.

After installing the crossbow, Li Chengqian smiled and said to Yuchi Gong: "Why don't you come and have a try, Uncle Yuchi?"

Yu Chigong was already dumbfounded, and he couldn't be happier to hear Li Chengqian's words.I don't care about the delicious seafood on the table.

He directly reached out and took the Zhuge Liannu from Li Chengqian's hand.Then he shot wildly at the bull's-eye, and all ten crossbow arrows also hit the bull's-eye.

After shooting, he still looked at the Zhuge Liannu in his hand with unsatisfied interest.At this time, even Cheng Yaojin came over.He wished he could snatch Zhuge Liannu from Yu Chigong's hand directly.

But at this time Li Chengqian said: "Uncles, you bet me this Zhuge Liannu, what do you two think?"

What Li Chengqian didn't expect was that Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin said in unison that they would not gamble.

This couldn't help but make Xu Maogong on the side feel puzzled, so he smiled and asked the two of them: "You two don't want such a good thing?"

"You also said that this kid is not the one who suffers. He dared to take such a good thing as a bet. Do you think he will lose?" Cheng Yaojin said to Xu Maogong.

"Hahaha, Cheng Yaojin, Cheng Yaojin, you finally have a good heart." The eldest grandson Wuji next to Li Shimin said with a big smile.

At this time, everyone no longer cared about eating the seafood on the table, but all focused on Zhuge Liannu.

Even Li Shimin stood up and asked Li Chengqian to reload the crossbow again.Then I also tried the power of this crossbow.

After trying it, he opened his mouth and said to Li Chengqian: "Where did you get this thing, and how many do you have in total?"

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Chengqian said with a vigilant expression: "Father, what do you mean? It can't be Zhuge Liannu who wants a son?"

"You think it's a great waste to keep such a good weapon in your Four Elephant Guards and not equip it with the Tang army?" Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and said.

"Father is right, but I'm afraid the Zhuge Liannu Ministry of Industry will not be able to produce it. How about having your ministers build it and sell it to Father at the cost price?" Li Chengqian rolled his eyes and said to Li Shimin with a smile .

"Your Majesty, did you see that? He even wants to earn your money. If the Emperor doesn't take care of him today, he won't know that being beaten will hurt." Cheng Yaojin on the side said to Li Shimin fanning the flames.

Li Shimin nodded, and then said to Li Chengqian: "Didn't you say that you can turn water into ice in summer? We don't have to wait for summer."

"If you can turn water into ice in front of me today, I will do as you say. If you can't do it, then honestly give him to me for free."
