Chapter 11 Can't Tell You
"Keming, you've been with me the longest, and you know that I'm the only one here."

Li Shimin shook his head and smiled lightly.

From the king of Qin to the emperor, in addition to relying on his own excellence, there are also eclectic talents.

Fang Yuan did have many problems, but looking at the Tang Dynasty, who can achieve such an achievement like Fang Yuan?
It took only two years for the chief secretary and five years for the county magistrate to transform Wuling County from a small and barren county in the south to the number one county in the south, which is unique.

Moreover, Fang Yuan is his virtuous minister Ying Meng!

Since he is a virtuous minister of Yingmeng, he can not only help him solve the problem of sin against himself.

It has only been two years since the Xuanwu Sect's change, and the throne has not yet been firmly established, so he desperately needs a courtier like Fang Yuan.

If the people can live a happy life, there will be no opposition forces that can incite them to rebel.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Du Ruhui saluted respectfully.

He understood that Li Shimin did not pursue Fang Yuan's problem.

In fact, if he were to decide how to deal with Fang Yuan, he would not pursue it.

Such a talent, with a little tempering of his temperament, will definitely be an important helper in political struggles in the future.

"Continue to investigate Fang Yuan's information, especially his origin."

Li Shimin ordered.

This information was found in one day.

Fang Yuan has been in Wuling County for seven years, how could he find all the information in one day.

And it was suspected to be a refugee here, he wanted to know where Fang Yuan was from before he became a refugee.

"Ok!"

Du Ruhui's respectful voice should be yes.

He was notifying when there was no one at night.

Li Shimin nodded, poured a cup of oolong tea and drank it, closed his eyes and savored its sweetness.

"Keming, why do you think the tea in Wuling County makes people linger so much?"

Li Shimin exclaimed.

The tea in Chang'an City tastes bitter and unpalatable.

Except for sacrificial use, almost no one usually drinks it.

However, the tea in Wuling County has endless aftertaste, as if opening up a new world.

"Just ask Fang Yuan and you will know?"

Du Ruhui shook his head and smiled.

He is also curious, he also wants to know.

And soft mattresses and hot water pipes and roads and toilets, he wanted to know too.

Thinking of the toilet, Du Ruhui felt nauseated.

"I'm tired today, take a day off, and let him take us around Wuling County by the way tomorrow."

Li Shimin drank another cup of tea.

I walked too much to visit the fertile fields today, and I was a little tired.

Not only tea, Li Shimin also wants to visit Wuling County to see the difference of Wuling County.

I don't know if I drank too much tea, but I suddenly felt the urge to urinate, and subconsciously looked towards the toilet. Suddenly, Li Shimin also felt nauseous.

"Then I'll let someone bring a message to Fang Yuan."

Du Ruhui said humbly.

Let someone tell Fang Yuan the time in advance, so as not to have other arrangements tomorrow.

I have ordered so much food here, before paying the money, Fang Yuan will give some noodles anyway.

The next day, it was still time.

The waiter at the guest house knocked on the door of their room again.

"Two distinguished guests, the county lord's carriage has already stopped at the door."

After a while, Li Shimin and Du Ruhui went out one after another.

When they came to the door, they saw Fang Yuan's luxurious carriage from yesterday.

The curtain was opening, Fang Yuan crossed his legs inside, half lying down to read a book.

"Boss Li, Steward Du, please get in the car."

Fang Yuan threw the book aside and sat down.

"Fang Xianzun, please trouble me."

Li Shimin smiled lightly.

Get into the car with the help of the groom.

Du Ruhui also followed and greeted Fang Yuan friendly.

"The two are rich men in my Wuling County, so how dare you say you're bothering me."

"This time we're going to South Street. South Street is a commercial street with everything."

Fang Yuan laughed.

Ask the groom to start from Wuling County South Street.

"Master Fang, why is the tea in your Wuling County different from that in other places?"

Li Shimin's first question was about tea.

When drinking tea, he felt a kind of calming effect, which could calm his mind.

For him who intensively corrects memorials and is often bothered by various things, drinking tea has a calming effect.

"Traditional tea is just plucked leaves from the tea tree and dried to make water, so that it is bitter and unpalatable."

"The tea in Wuling County is picked, withered, roasted, kneaded, kneaded, heaped, dried, pressed, etc., and finally used for soaking. Naturally, there is a big difference."

Fang Yuan explained.

Before time travel, Fang Yuan was a tea lover and knew a lot about making tea.

After crossing, there are still a lot of people who can be mobilized, and slowly figure out the process.

"It turns out there's such a big difference."

Li Shimin exclaimed.

No wonder the tea in Wuling County is so attractive. It turns out that there are so many processes.

I didn't expect such a delicious tea to be brewed from the leaves after a complicated process. It's amazing.

"And how is the soft mattress made?"

Du Ruhui continued to ask.

He was more concerned with the soft mattress.

I still want to buy a few when I go back.

"The production of soft mattresses is relatively complicated, and its core is springs, fillings, and fabrics."

Fang Yuan explained.

He only knows how to make mattresses.

Those who actually make mattresses are those of the Mo family, who hardly know the process.

To be precise, mattresses in Wuling County are hard mattresses, but they are soft mattresses compared to plank beds.

"What is a spring?"

Du Ruhui was puzzled and asked.

What is a spring and how has he never heard of it?

Li Shimin on the side also didn't understand, looking at Fang Yuan with doubts.

"Oh, it's a hollow, strong, elastic thing made of steel smelting wire in a circle."

Fang Yuan almost forgot that they didn't know what a spring was.

There is no word spring in this era, but something similar already exists.

In order to facilitate the two people's understanding, Fang Yuan gestured with his hands while talking.

"So that's the spring."

"I didn't expect the bed to have springs."

Du Ruhui sighed.

He already understood what a spring looked like.

It's just really hard to imagine that the spring can be installed in the bed.

Even the dragon bed is wooden in nature, but it can be fitted with iron. Do you think it is strange?
"What about this road?"

"How did this road come about?"

"The roads in Chang'an City are not that smooth, and it looks very solid."

The two are like curious babies.

He kept asking Fang Yuan this and that, his thirst for knowledge was very strong.

"This road is called a cement road, and it is made of cement."

"As for how the cement is made, this is confidential and I cannot tell you."

Fang Yuan shook his head and smiled.

This time, he didn't say anything.

You know, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and if roads pass, money will roll in.

Most of the credit for Wuling County's development today is due to the road.

After five months, I will be transferred to another place to take up the post, and I need cement to build roads to get rich quickly.

If the royal caravan knew about it, they would tell the emperor that if the emperor spread everywhere, how could he take advantage of the opportunity to get rich?

"You kid, are you still worried that we will steal your secret recipe?"

Du Ruhui scolded with a smile.

Like the tone of an elder to a younger generation.

Because Li Shimin didn't pursue Fang Yuan's issue, he already regarded Fang Yuan as someone who could be cultivated.

Fang Yuan didn't speak, he touched his nose in embarrassment, thinking when did our relationship get so good?
And you, a housekeeper, dare to call a county a kid?
Du Ruhui also seemed to feel that he had said something wrong, and the atmosphere in the carriage suddenly became a little weird.

Fortunately, at this time, the groom stopped the carriage and reminded that South Street had arrived, so that the embarrassing atmosphere was resolved.

Several people got out of the car one after another.

There are people coming and going in South Street, and the shops on both sides are open for business, which is very lively.

As soon as Li Shimin and Du Ruhui landed, they were attracted by the excitement in front of them, as if they had returned to Chang'an City.

And they also saw many things that were not found in Chang'an City.
