Datang: What's wrong with my fief being a billion points larger?

Chapter 138: Quitting drinking but not sex, the sea vessel project is launched
Yang Cheng then brought both jars of wine in front of him. It was obvious that he was going to pour a bowl for Li Yuanji and take up all the wine from both jars, leaving no wine for Li Yuanji.

After Li Yuanji was poured the wine, the others drank it in one gulp. No one listened to Li Yuanji's instruction to drink slowly. They all drank it in one gulp. As expected, the throats of all these people were spicy in an instant.

"This wine is so strong!"

Li Yuanji looked at these people breathing heavily and felt helpless. He was too lazy to care about them.

"This wine is delicious!"

"Who said it wasn't? After drinking this wine, I suddenly felt that what I drank before was nothing. It was just like water. The wine made by the king is still the best. It is really a fairy wine."

Everyone was praising him and they admired Li Yuanji even more. They didn't know how to praise him enough for making such a great thing.

Yang Cheng didn't say anything, he just filled his own glass again and drank it down with a gulp. Seeing this, the others became anxious.

"Yang Cheng, leave some for me."

Xie Shufang picked up the wine and started drinking without saying anything. Xi Junmai couldn't help but start drinking it too. Only Ning Chun started to slow down his drinking.

After a while, before they had even finished drinking the whole jar of wine, Yang Cheng couldn't hold on any longer and fainted. Xie Shufang and Xi Junmai were also staggering. Yuwen Bao and Lin Quan had been enduring the pain, but now they couldn't hold on any longer and sat down, grimacing in pain.

Xie Shufang and Xi Junmai watched this scene and both laughed.

"Jun Mai, these people can't drink much, but we can, come on, have another one."

Xi Junmai also laughed out loud.

"Okay, let's have more. How can we waste such good wine? If we don't drink it, wouldn't it be a waste of the king's kindness?"

Li Yuanji didn't want to talk after listening to this. He could see that these two people had almost reached their limit. Sure enough, they each drank another bowl and soon fell down. Li Yuanji was overwhelmed.

"Someone, send them all back."

Li Yuanji had no choice but to ask people to send these people back. Ning Chun couldn't help laughing beside him.

"Your Majesty, this cannot be blamed on them. It is really because the wine you brewed is too delicious. Not only them, but even I am drunk. It's just that my throat can't stand it, otherwise I would also like to drink it in one gulp."

Li Yuanji smiled helplessly after hearing this. He had also tasted the wine. In fact, compared with the wine he had drunk in later generations, the taste was a little worse, but it could only be said to be okay. However, compared with the wine nowadays, the wine he brewed could indeed be called a fairy wine.

Li Yuanji looked at Ning Chun and then asked about the business.

"Did you find the sorghum I asked you to look for?"

Speaking of this, Ning Chun also looked solemn.

"Your Majesty, I have searched the treasury and have not found it. Before I came here, I sent letters to various states to see if they have it. If they still don't have it, I can only look for it in other places in the Tang Dynasty."

Li Yuanji was helpless too, as sorghum was not valued. Even if it existed, it would be difficult to find any trace of it. In Li Yuanji's opinion, he could only ask Yang Cheng to look for it when he went to the Tang Dynasty to do business. If that didn't work, he could only ask the Yang and Wei people to help him find it.

"Try to look for it. Once you find it, it can be used as a new food. Besides, the wine brewed with sorghum tastes better, so it can sell better.

As for whether there is sorghum, I can tell you clearly that there is definitely sorghum. I have read in a book before that it has existed since the Han Dynasty. It’s just that we have never paid attention to it, which has led to the lack of a kind of food without knowing it. "

Li Yuanji also felt really regretful. Although sorghum could not be used as a staple food, adding an edible food was very important for people of that era.

The two chatted for a while, and Ning Chun also went downstairs. The unfinished jar of wine was also taken away. Li Yuanji laughed instantly. Now the people under him were really becoming less and less polite to him, and they would take advantage of him whenever they had the chance.

Later, Yang Qingwan came back and came to Li Yuanji. Before Li Yuanji could say anything, Yang Qingwan spoke.

"My husband, what happened when we came in through the gate? There was a strong smell, and the people downstairs were still cleaning it up. They said that Xie Shufang and the others vomited. What happened? Should we ask the imperial physician to treat them, to make sure nothing happened?"

Yang Qingwan was both complaining and worried. When she came in, she was suffocated.

Li Yuanji was stunned when he heard this, but soon realized that Xie Shufang's group had all vomited. He really didn't expect that no one vomited when they fell down, but they all vomited near the gate? Couldn't they go out and vomit?
Li Yuanji really wanted to beat someone up, but this group of people, after drinking his wine, still wanted to leave some souvenirs in his palace. They were really polite.

Xie Shufang and his companions did not vomit in the first place. But when they were being helped down, they were shaking and could not hold back their vomit, and they vomited all over the floor. If you had to say who was unfair, the most unfair ones were the soldiers who helped Xie Shufang. They were almost suffocated by the odor. Anyone who has smelled it knows the smell.

Li Yuanji immediately spoke.

"Madam, don't worry about them. They are all drunk and vomited. When they sober up tomorrow, I will make them come to clean the Ten Days Palace for me. These people are so unhygienic that I am so angry."

When Yang Qingwan heard this, she was also helpless, and then looked at Li Yuanji with resentment.

"My husband, how much did they drink to become like that? You didn't persuade them. Although we have more food now than before, it was all from business and sent by Feng Ang, Tan Dian and others. We should use it sparingly now.

How much grain does it take to make wine? Don't waste it like this. Just drink a little when you want to. When the grain is harvested later, you can make more wine and drink it well. Don't waste it now."

Yang Qingwan was worried. She was very clear about the situation here. She was afraid that Li Yuanji would start to squander the food when he saw the increase in food. Yang Qingwan knew very well that when there was no harvest, the food would not be enough.

In addition to daily food, a portion must be left for emergencies. In case of a natural disaster, at least there will be food to help the victims. In addition, the development of other states also requires food support. Yang Qingwan is worried that the stockpiled food is not enough.

It was only because Li Yuanji mentioned this that she mentioned it, otherwise she would not have said anything, because she was a woman after all, and she only needed to take care of the affairs in the palace. She was in charge of the inner affairs, and if she acted recklessly and usurped the authority, she was afraid that Li Yuanji would be unhappy.

Li Yuanji was not annoyed after hearing this. In his eyes, it was very good to have such a virtuous wife who reminded him from time to time, so that he could not be arrogant and correct his mistakes in time. Only in this way could he do better. "Madam, don't worry, I know all this. In fact, brewing wine is secondary. The main purpose is for other things. I know what I am doing and I will not waste food.

This is newly brewed wine. Madam, please come and taste it. It is much stronger than usual, but the taste is okay. I have also prepared some aged wine, which will be blended later and will taste even better.

Now try this, which I have worked so hard to prepare.”

Li Yuanji took out a cup and poured a little for Yang Qingwan, who was also looking forward to it.

Yang Qingwan took a small sip and almost choked. After a while, her pretty face gradually turned red, and she looked more beautiful than usual, which made Li Yuanji unable to recover from his gaze for a moment. Although they were already an old couple, Li Yuanji felt that Yang Qingwan was especially beautiful at this moment.

After a while, Yang Qingwan slowly spoke.

"Husband, this wine is really good. I wonder what name you gave it? Such a fine wine is rare in the world. I'm sure no one will not love it."

Yang Qingwan kept talking and praising Li Yuanji. After a while, she still didn't hear Li Yuanji's voice. Yang Qingwan looked over and saw Li Yuanji looking at her with a smile. She felt embarrassed and her face turned even redder.

Li Yuanji did not wait any longer. He picked up Yang Qingwan by the waist and walked into the house. Yang Qingwan tightly grasped the clothes on Li Yuanji's chest and did not resist, looking like she was ready to be picked.

Perhaps it was because of the alcohol, or perhaps it was because it was late, this time, both of them were particularly indulgent, unlocking many postures. It was not until the early morning of the next day that Li Yuanji woke up. Looking at Yang Qingwan sleeping beside him, he smiled helplessly.

"Drinking really does mess things up. It seems like I really need to quit drinking in the future."

Feeling the emptiness coming from my body, alcohol and sex, alcohol and sex, it's just right to quit drinking but not sex.

A few days passed, and Li Yuanji was particularly excited that day, not for any other reason, but because the task of reclaiming ten thousand acres of wasteland was finally completed.

Now, places like Feng Ang, Tan Dian, Feng Zhixun, and Ning Changrong are all reclaiming wasteland. Although not as fast as his place, it is still not a small amount. In total, ten thousand acres of arable land have been reclaimed.

Li Yuanji looked at the 1,835 contribution points and smiled foolishly. After a while, Li Yuanji looked at the new task.

"New mission. If you want to get rich, you must first build roads. Open up all the roads connecting Haikang City to the docks, salt fields, military camps, and villages. You will receive 500 contribution points if you complete the task."

Looking at this task, Li Yuanji said that the difficulty was not too great, it was just a matter of opening up roads from Haikang City to various places, which were not very far, and it was just a matter of widening and leveling the roads. He thought it was good to get 500 contribution points.

Then Li Yuanji stopped thinking about it and opened the item exchange column and began to look for the ship's manufacturing drawings and craftsmanship. Before, he just wanted to exchange the drawings, which required 1,500 contribution points. Now that he had 300 more points, he could see if he could exchange the craftsmanship as well.

When he clicked on it, he saw that it required 1,800 contribution points. Li Yuanji felt heartbroken. He had barely even warmed up his contribution points, and now they were going to be spent. However, he had to exchange them. Li Yuanji had no choice but to grit his teeth and exchange them.

"My longevity pills. At this rate of consumption, when will I be able to achieve immortality by taking them?"

Li Yuanji was very tired. He wanted to develop, but he had to exchange these things. However, if he exchanged them, he felt that his road to immortality was far away.

Holding the exchanged drawings and processes, Li Yuanji was both happy and sad. He was happy because his strength would be greatly improved in the future, at least this time it was real. Even if he could not beat others, no one could stop him from escaping.

Moreover, he was not afraid of even long ocean voyages. Even if he could not defeat Li Jiancheng or Li Shimin in the future, he could move to another place and still be a king. No, he could establish a new dynasty at that time.

What frustrates him is that he really can't save his contribution points, not even a single bit. There are so many places where he needs to spend his contribution points. He has already used his abilities as much as possible, and many of the things he has made are made by himself, but his contribution points are still not enough to cover his expenses.

Finally, Li Yuanji decisively closed the exchange column. He was afraid that if he continued to look at it, he would become depressed. Looking at the remaining thirty-five contribution points, he could only shake his head helplessly.

"Shufang, go find Liu San."

After a while, Liu San arrived.

"See you, Your Majesty."

After Li Yuanji waved his hand, he directly handed the ship's drawings and manufacturing technology to Liu San.

"This is the blueprint of the new sea vessel, as well as the manufacturing process. When you go down, take a close look at it, and then build this ship for me. I can only assign 50 people to you, and you can teach the missing people yourself. No matter what method you use, I only want the result.

As for the helpers, you don't have to worry, they will be arranged for you. I will also arrange the manufacturing location for you. You don't need anything else. The only thing you need to do now is to understand these drawings and processes thoroughly, and then start work with the helpers."

Liu San opened the blueprint and looked at the dense instructions, as well as the style and size of the ship, his eyes full of enthusiasm. This was the first time he had seen such a large ship. He could tell from the blueprint that once built, it would be a giant on the sea.

This blueprint is drawn according to a large ship. As long as the large ship can be built, smaller ships can also be built to assist in combat.

As for the craftsmanship, Liu San did not look at it, but was deeply attracted by the drawings. They looked too exquisite and did not seem like something that could be drawn by a human.

After a moment, Liu San had to concentrate and look at Li Yuanji.

"Your Majesty, after I go down, I will learn all of this in the shortest possible time and start work as soon as possible!
To be honest with you, Your Majesty, I am also looking forward to this big ship, no, this sea ship. I have never seen such a magical thing, and I will definitely build it as soon as possible!"

Li Yuanji also laughed. This was exactly the effect he wanted.

After Liu San left, Li Yuanji immediately looked at Xie Shufang.

"Go tell Yuwen Bao to clean up Dongdao Island. At the same time, dispatch 3,000 soldiers to Dongdao Island. The construction of this large ship will be carried out on Dongdao Island. The mission of these 3,000 soldiers is to protect the factory and people for the construction of the large ship.

Remember, without my order, no one is allowed to approach! Anyone who dares to approach will be killed, and anyone who dares to cause trouble will be killed!"
