Emperor of the Tang Dynasty

"This is different from what happened in the past. It's completely contrary to common sense... What nonsense is he talking about?"

Li Shimin frowned, but did not directly refute.

Because although he felt that Li You's remarks were too unbelievable, but when Li Shimin thought of his previous experiences, he felt that he could hold back his disbelief for the time being, and let's talk about it first.

"Yang Jie, this matter is not a trivial matter, it's about the lifeline of the country! Don't be kidding me!"

Li You put away his smile and said very seriously: "Erchen never jokes!"

After getting a positive reply, Li Shimin nodded and said, "This matter is too big, you must prove it to me first."

"His Royal Highness, in addition to the food issue, there is also the housing issue!"

Seeing that everyone seemed to be focusing on whether they could grow food in winter, Li Jing couldn't help but reminded in a low voice.

After all, even if food is actually grown, the people will still suffer from frostbite if they don't have a house to keep them warm, and it will still not be able to completely change the current chaos.

Li You waved his hand and said, "The housing issue is even a trivial matter! Let's wrap these two things together on the lonely person!"

After that, Li You added: "As the royal father said, these two matters are very important, so the younger minister will retire first... When the results are achieved, the father and the ministers will be invited to come and check!"

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Okay, then you can go on your own. If you need anything, you can speak to the Ministry of Works. There are no taboos."

Li You didn't say more, turned around and walked out of the hall.

He had just left the hall when his entourage followed him. This was brought in by Li You when he entered the palace, so that he could be ready for his own dispatch at any time.

"Notify the people from the Tang Academy of Sciences to pack up all the cement and other things that Gu asked them to prepare, and then go to the wasteland on the outskirts of the city to wait for Gu."

The entourage nodded quickly and flew away.

After Li You got on the horse, he went all the way to the glass factory under Li's Industry.

"It's Your Highness! Your Highness is down!"

Yu, the elder of the glass factory who was also prepared, brought a group of craftsmen to wait at the factory gate early, and when he saw Li You, he knelt down and saluted.

"No gift, get up."

Li You waved his hand and said, "Have you produced all the things that you have been asked to produce?"

"Yes! Live up to His Highness's request!"

Old Julius nodded again and again. Those exquisite drawings were sent a few days ago. After Li You received the information that Shadow told him, he had already started to act.

Chapter 1095 Glass conservatory and reinforced concrete room!

What Li You wants to build is a glass conservatory!

Li Youxian relied on contacting Yupei, and asked Shadow in Chang'an to write out the drawings of the glass conservatory first, fill in the production requirements, and then send it to Yu, the elder of the glass factory.

"Please come with me, Your Highness."

Lao Yu led Li You into the factory building slowly. In the center of the compound, the glass was filled with the glass that Li You asked them to prepare.

"Is the water flow ready?" Li ~ You asked.

Old Julian nodded again and again and said, "It has already been introduced into the underground according to your request."

Li You nodded and commanded a few craftsmen to build a glass greenhouse in situ.

"Lao Yu, do you know how amazing this thing is?" Li You asked with a smile.

Lao Yu was about to burst into tears, and nodded to Li You again and again: "I know! Your Highness, this house is so warm!"

After making a simple glass vegetable greenhouse, Li You rushed to the wasteland in the suburbs with his relatives.

There, the craftsmen of the Tang Academy of Sciences were already waiting with cement concrete and some steel bars.

As soon as Li You arrived, the craftsmen paid homage to Li You, and Li You waved his hand and let them all get up.

"His Royal Highness, these things have been prepared according to your instructions, should we start construction now?" asked the leading craftsman.

Li You nodded and motioned for them to start. He had already sent someone to send the drawings for the construction of the simple house.

The leading craftsman waved his hand and took the rest of the craftsmen to work, using steel bars as bones and cement ash concrete as skin and flesh. The appearance of those steel bars was because Li You knew that if he wanted to build a house quickly, he needed to set up a skeleton. , Only then did the drawings be sent back to make the newly produced lathes work overnight.

Although the quality is not as strong as the steel bars in the market, it is more than enough to deal with one-story bungalows, and the strength of the cement houses built with them can be far higher than that of the houses of this era!

It took most of a day for the cement to be poured into the steel frame. After waiting for a while, a gray concrete house appeared in front of Li You and the craftsmen of the Tang Academy of Sciences!

"After another ten days and a half months of maintenance, the intensity should be able to rise to the level where people can live." Li You nodded with satisfaction.

The whole house is a cube, with a gray exterior, one window, one door, and nothing else.

Although it looks ugly, and there is no spire, it is more than enough to deal with winter!

……

After Li You left the court, the discussion in the Taiji Palace on how to deal with these problems did not stop.

Although Li Shimin and all the officials in the court believed in Li You's ability, this matter is extraordinary. If it is not handled properly, it is the risk of civil upheaval!

Furthermore, what Li You said was too absurd, and their rationality told them that they could not bet everything on Li You.

"The court should also have a backup plan!"

The silence that appeared in the hall with Li You's departure was broken by Wei Zheng at this time.
