Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 54 On Quyuanli's Maximization of Benefits
Today is just a small-scale trial plowing, and the participants are only Master Bi and Wan Siming from the workshop, Wan Fu who is driving the cart, Chang Jian, a close servant, and a cowman.

Xue Lang only let people put the plow away after trying it back and forth, and pulled the cowboy aside and told him: "This plow has just been made, don't make a fuss, it will spoil the important event of Your Highness the Princess."

The cow husband was taken aback, and quickly agreed, promising that he would not say a word even in his dreams.

Xue Lang nodded in satisfaction, and called Wan Siming back.Wan Siming still couldn't hide his excitement, and he muttered: "It's done, it's done! From now on, it will save more effort to plow the fields, and save a lot of animal power. These savings can be used to open up more land and cultivate more. If there is too much food, it is rare to see starvation all over the place.”

Xue Lang looked at him excitedly. Although he didn't have feelings similar to Wan Siming's, he could understand him and said, "It's not enough to just improve the plow for plowing. The improvement of the plow alone will do little."

Wan Siming still had a happy face: "It's good to have some slight improvements."

"You are in a good mood."

"Boss Xue is so honored."

Xue Lang said: "Now that the plow is finished, go back to the workshop and arrange some rush work, and let the workshop do it first. Don't make any noise about the promotion. I will talk about it after I report back to Her Royal Highness."

"Here."

A group of people rushed back to the workshop again to arrange the production of Qu Yuanli.

"Report to master Xue, how many plows are suitable for making?"

Wan Siming asked.Xue Lang said: "It should be based on the number of cattle in the military camp."

"In the nearby village?"

"I already have a charter for this, and I will do the amount needed by the military station first, and the rest will be discussed after I report back to Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"Here!"

Five households of craftsmen, masters and apprentices, only a dozen or so.For these skilled craftsmen, making plows is a very simple job. Before, the only difficulty was the size. Now that there are finished products for demonstration, it is not difficult to make them.

After Xue Lang assigned the tasks, Wan Siming left to supervise, and then went directly back to the Princess Mansion. He was too busy to go to the Tingfengyuan, but went to Her Royal Highness the Princess first.

Her Royal Highness probably happened to be free, and no one stopped him, so she took him directly to the main hall: "I have seen Your Highness."

Princess Pingyang waved her hand and asked him to find a place to sit, and asked: "Youyang came here with a happy face, what good news do you have for me?"

Xue Lang said: "Your Highness, Quyuanli has been completed. Just now, my subordinate took people to the field to test it, and there is no problem. Regarding the promotion, I have some foolish opinions and want to report to Your Highness."

"Oh? Let's hear it."

Her Royal Highness showed an interested look.Xue Lang said: "May I ask your Highness, does His Highness Qu Yuanli want to promote it?"

"If it is beneficial to farming, it is natural to want to promote it."

"Then His Highness wants fame or money for this promotion?"

Now, Her Royal Highness was really interested, and asked: "What's the difference? Tell me in detail."

"Here."

Xue Lang explained in detail: "After the plow is made in the workshop, my subordinates want to hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony for plowing. Please ask Your Highness to write a book for the nearby counties and counties, and invite their officials in charge of farming and mulberry to come to participate in this ceremony. Of course, if It would be even better if the governor of the state capital comes here when he is free. However, can the chief executive of the state capital leave the jurisdiction at will?"

Her Royal Highness shook her head: "The state shepherd and governor are not allowed to leave their posts without reason."

Xue Lang snapped his fingers habitually, and said: "Then there is no other way, just write to invite them to send the officials in charge of Nongsang over, it's better to talk than nothing."

Her Royal Highness glared at this word: "Xue Youyang, what do you mean by being an imperial court official?"

Xue Lang laughed: "Spoken words, bad words. No matter who comes, it's our honor at Weize Pass, right?"

"That's about the same."

Her Royal Highness is satisfied with this.Xue Lang laughed dryly, and quickly changed the subject: "By the way, Your Highness, have you reported to the imperial court about the Turkic famine that this subordinate told you?"

Her Highness the Princess is a smart person, she will understand when Xue Lang asks this question!

The already clear eyes were even brighter now, and he said: "I asked A Liu to write a memorial and send it that day, and it should have arrived at the saint's case."

Xue Lang said: "Since we have reached the case of the sage, with the sageness of the princes in the court, we can naturally come up with countermeasures! No matter what strategies you propose, there will definitely be one strategy!"

"Tuntian!"

Her Royal Highness and Xue Lang said these two words together.

Talking to smart people is easy!Xue Lang is very satisfied with his boss——

Anyone who has ever worked at work knows that there is an essential difference between a boss who is smart and trouble-free, and a boss who is a fool.

Xue Lang said with a smile: "If we want to farm, our Quyuanli will be useful! It just depends on what His Highness wants! Fame? Money?"

Princess Pingyang said: "How about fame? How about money?"

Xue Lang: "If you want to be famous, before the ribbon-cutting ceremony, please ask your Highness to write a letter to the nearby counties and counties, telling them that we have invented a plowing tool that can greatly save animal power and manpower, and invite them to visit and study. Craftsmen, we provide food and lodging, and help with training for free. Please promote it vigorously. Then, please go to the court to report this great event to the saint. It is best to ask the saint to give us such a useful plow. Name, it is also convenient to promote it like this! Then, His Highness ordered the craftsmen to rush to work, and when the imperial court decided to allow the border guards to garrison the fields, His Highness donated the finished Quyuanli to them in the name of supporting the border guards in preventing the Turks. Send someone over there to teach them how to use it, repair it, make it."

Princess Pingyang glanced at Xue Lang, nodded, and asked, "So what if you want money?"

"It's easy to ask for money. Your Highness, please go to the sage first, and say that we have invented a useful plow here, and ask the sage to give it a name. By the way, the process of invention is hard and costly. If anyone wants to learn, you can Send someone to our Weize Pass, as long as you pay a small fee, we will provide education and training. Thinking about coming to Saint as your Highness's father, he shouldn't stop your beloved daughter from earning such a small sum of money that can only come once, right?"

"dad?"

Her Royal Highness got the wrong point again!Xue Lang looked at her speechlessly: "It means father, Aye, it's the name of the flower grower."

Xue Lang waved his hand: "Your Highness, this is not the point, the point is, what is your choice?"

Her Royal Highness's Qi Cultivating Kung Fu skill came into play again, Xue Lang couldn't see what she was thinking at all, so he asked calmly, "What about Youyang's opinion?"

Xue Lang spread his hands: "Your Highness, as a superior and a subordinate, it is the subordinate's responsibility to make a plan, and it is your superior's responsibility to decide on the plan."

Her Royal Highness looked like she was doing good, and said: "Then, as a subordinate, which plan do you think is more beneficial to your boss?"

Fuck!Your Royal Highness, if you treat your subordinates like this, you will be punished by being so unkind, okay?
