Chapter 171

It was already cold in the spring, and the moon was coming. His Majesty Li Er asked someone to call Changsun Wuji and others to talk to them about Li Yuanying's plan to build a port.

Originally, Changsun Wuji and his friends were shocked when they saw the confidence in His Majesty Li Er. They thought that Li Yuanying had written some disgusting flattery again. But when they saw it, they felt that it was better to read Li Yuanying flattery!

Fang Xuanling first said: "Even if His Highness Teng's men brought back some goods in Goryeo, it would not be enough to build a new harbor." Then he briefly told His Majesty Li Er about the cost of building the port, and said that spring farming is about to be impatient, and Li Yuanying cannot be allowed to make such a fool of himself. You must know that Henan Road is an important grain base, so Li Yuanying cannot delay spring farming for big moves!

His Majesty Li Er said: "It's not enough, but the Nascent Soul said it won't affect spring plowing, so it's okay to let him try it."

The reason why His Majesty Li Er agreed was that Li Yuanying praised it, saying that it is good to build a large harbor, and that personal income tax customs can be set up to control maritime trade. This harbor must be big, grand, and show the style of the Tang Dynasty!

Let’s choose a good place to build one of Henan Road first. If it is done, there will be no problem. For example, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fuguang, Yazhou, and Annan Protectorate will also be built, connecting it to a maritime trade chain, providing good port supporting services, so that everyone can walk the sea with confidence and boldness.

Li Yuanying called this plan the "Pearl of the East" plan.

According to Li Yuanying, their Tang Dynasty was at the sunrise in the east, and their coasts were mostly east of the entire continent. He wanted to create bright oriental pearls from these harbors, so that they could continuously deliver countless materials and wealth to the Tang Dynasty.

In order to protect these harbors, they have to train powerful navy soldiers and patrol and train at sea every day, so that all those who step into the harbor can feel the strength and courage of the Tang Dynasty!

This blueprint is so beautiful that His Majesty Li Er is reluctant to give up, so he wants Li Yuanying to try it. Anyway, Li Yuanying swears that there will be no loss in building a port, and there is no need for the court to produce a copper coin!

Fang Xuanling and others looked at each other. Knowing that His Majesty Li Er had decided, he stopped persuading him. He let His Majesty Li Er write a reply to Li Yuanying: The port can be built, but there is no money anyway, and spring farming cannot be delayed, and the money earned must be handed over to the court.

Wei Zheng thrust his face.

No wonder Li Yuanying could come up with a theory of "leading people to be kind". It turned out that it was the origin of family education. His Majesty Li Er's words were so shameless that even Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji did not stop him from spoiling Li Yuanying and making trouble!

Although the court did not give people or money, His Majesty Li Er still agreed to let Li Chunfeng go and help Li Yuanying choose a date and choose a good day for the port to start construction. In this way, all Li Yuanying's requirements were met!

As for Li Yuanying's praises to Dai Ting's miserable ceiling, His Majesty Li Er ignored it.

Dai Ting is capable and has ideas, but it is not suitable to be put on the surface. First, he is an eunuch and is born without an advantage in the court. Second, what he does is not something he can do openly, and it will be difficult to perform after passing the bright path.

His Majesty Li Er asked someone to send the reply letter to Li Yuanying, and packed Li Chunfeng with him.

This time, the old genius doctor Sun Simiao was also the one who went to Tengzhou. Sun Simiao didn't like to deal with the imperial court and refused to go to the Imperial Hospital many times. He stayed in Chang'an to compile the "Qianjin Fang".

At the beginning of this year, Sun Simiao had already presented the "Qianjin Fang" to the court, and asked the Imperial Hospital to review and proofread it and publish it all over the world. This was what Li Yuanying promised him. After the book was repaired, Sun Simiao didn't want to stay in Chang'an anymore, so he simply went to Henan Road with Li Chunfeng to help Li Yuanying open a medical school.

Although His Majesty Li Er was reluctant to let the miracle doctor go, he knew that it was impossible to keep someone forcibly, so he could only let him go after summoning Sun Simiao himself.

By mid-February, everything revived, there were too many vegetables, fruits and melons, birds and animals were fat, the mountains grew and the mountains were growing, and the water flying in the sky was swiming in the edible atmosphere. Fengtailou, which was already booming, made a big move, and dozens of branches opened at the same time, and launched a brand new cuisine: cooking!

During this period, the chefs of various semicolons were busy practicing cooking methods. After getting started, they quickly ravaged all the seasonal ingredients back and forth and developed local characteristics according to local conditions.

Li Yuanying said that he would let them go back to his hometown to take over a Fengtai Building alone. They thought that Li Yuanying was coaxing them to work hard, but now it has really come true!

This makes them very energetic!

Compared to going out to fight alone, it is much more comfortable to beside the big tree of Fengtai Tower. They can distribute dividends and make more money. Moreover, with Li Yuanying here, no one comes to cause trouble for them. They can devote themselves to developing new dishes and improving their cooking skills. As long as people with brains will see that their future will get better and better!

So everyone was eager to wait for the day when their semicolons opened.

Heat oil in the pan and stir-fry it quickly. Although the dishes made are not as good as cooking and stewing, they are better than fast, fragrant, and not much elsewhere!

The Fengtai Building semicolon was opened at the same time, and the cooking was indeed a craze in various places. As soon as fresh things came out, everyone was very curious. Moreover, Fengtai Building rarely disappointed, so diners naturally flocked to taste the delicious cooking.

Perhaps because of the low price and more people can afford it, fried rice has become the most popular new dish!

This egg fried rice craze has been hot all the way from Chang'an to Tengzhou, and it has been spread to all places by merchants and tourists from all over the country. Soon, anyone who sees Fengtai Tower wants to go in and call a plate to try it out!

Wei Zheng and others generally don’t go out for dinner, so they learned that the cooking trend was a little later, and the younger generation at home learned the news first.

When Wei Zheng heard about this, he frowned and was very dissatisfied with Li Yuanying's actions that happened at any time. Others made a lot of money in silence, but he was fine. The money was so popular that everyone was discussing it!

A few days later, many people heard more news: It turned out that this dish had to be served with a special wok to make it!

Now the question is, Fengtai Tower has so many semicolons all at once, and the stir-fry dishes that are sold every day are for so many diners to enjoy. How many iron pots did Li Yuanying ask people to create?!

The most important thing is, where did the iron come from? Did he discover iron ore in Taiyuan last year and mine it himself?

Wei Zheng could not sit idly by and watch Li Yuanying make such a big mistake. He immediately went to Taiyuan to investigate thoroughly, and then ran Li Yuanying's industries everywhere to see if there were any unreported minerals. Li Yuanying likes to play and make fun of it, but he must not touch the iron ore!

As a result, after Wei Zheng investigated, he found His Majesty Li Er and investigated the plot of the two brothers clearly!

These two brothers are really shameless!

Unique from ancient times to the present!

Wei Zheng was so angry that he sat in the conference hall and refused to leave, and did not curse. He just sat there and looked at His Majesty Li Er, which was very cunning like he was looking at a disheartened man.

When His Majesty Li Er saw that the truth was revealed, he had to push the pot on Li Yuanying's head and sighed that he had no money to give it to Li Yuanying, and he could not treat him with special treatment in terms of the size of the fiefdom. Others found that the iron ore was offered to him, and they could also give him some compensation. They could not let Li Yuanying give his own property in vain, right?

Li Chengqian also helped persuade him, saying that his uncle only wanted a little bit of iron, not much, just a few pots, would it be a lot? Not much at all. If it weren't for the opening of the Fengtai Building Branch, no one would have noticed this!

Wei Zheng really wants to retire and return home.

If you love, let them spoil it. If something happens when you are used to it, see how they end up!

...

When Li Chunfeng and Sun Simiao arrived in Tengzhou, Tengzhou Academy had almost been completed.

March is a good time for spring flowers to bloom. Li Chunfeng looked at the busy spring plowing scene along the way and felt that the scenery was very good. He and Sun Simiao had just arrived outside the city. Li Yuanying had already welcomed them from afar and enthusiastically led them into the city. He said, "Master Sun, Xiao Li, I'm waiting for you to come! It happened that the academy was about to be built and the admissions can be started. Master Sun, go and see if the medical school is big enough. If it is not enough, I will ask someone to expand it!"

Sun Simiao stroked his beard and said, "If you want to cultivate a good doctor, students are more expensive than students." With more students, one is more difficult to teach, and you cannot teach according to your aptitude; the other is that it is difficult to judge their character. If you accept students with bad intentions, who knows whether they use medical skills to save people or harm people?

Li Yuanying nodded when he heard this. He didn't take Sun Simiao to the palace, but directly took him to the medical school to see if there was any improvement.

Sun Simiao was even more direct. After seeing it, he said that he would not leave and wanted to live in the medical school. The place was spacious, bright and very quiet. There was a large garden in the back, planting various medicinal materials produced in Henan Road, and special medicine children were taken care of. Later, it was connected to the back mountain, with lush green onion, and there were many wild trees and weeds growing. I was afraid that some wild medicinal materials could be found.

Sun Simiao is old and likes this semi-pastoral-style residence. Li Yuanying has found all the things he wants to study. What else does he have to worry about? As for the city to make a name for himself and the banquet to show his power, Sun Simiao has no interest at all!

Seeing that Sun Simiao was very satisfied with his arrangement, Li Yuanying happily led Li Chunfeng away.

During this period, Dai Ting had exchanged all the good things he had brought back from Goryeo for cash, and everything was ready, just waiting for the busiest spring plowing to end and start Li Yuanying's grand "Pearl of the East" plan.

Li Chunfeng was just sent by His Majesty Li Er to choose his life. He didn't know what awesomeness Li Yuanying and His Majesty Li Er boasted. He heard Li Yuanying say that he would build a harbor for the Tang Dynasty and let the winding coasts string together the "Oriental Pearls" one by one, Li Chunfeng couldn't help but calculate in his mind how much it would cost.

Li Chunfeng said: "You have opened so many Fengtai Building semicolons to build this harbor?"

Li Yuanying said: "No, I have already thought about how to use the money earned by Fengtai Tower." Since Li Chunfeng mentioned Fengtai Tower, Li Yuanying told Li Chunfeng about his grand plan: he wanted to build a spacious and easy-to-go road from Mount Tai to Chang'an, and to give the stations along the way the best animal power. In this way, his emperor brother wanted to go to Mount Tai several times and go to Mount Tai several times, which would not cost the people and money at all!

Li Chunfeng understood why His Majesty Li Er indulged in Li Yuanying so much.

Li Chunfeng said: "Then where are you going to find money to repair the harbor?"

Li Yuanying kept it in hiding: "You will know soon."

Seeing that Li Yuanying didn't say anything, Li Chunfeng stopped asking more questions and stayed in Tengzhou with peace of mind.

The manpower has not yet been in place, so Li Yuanying only asked people to prepare the materials and money for the expansion of the port, and did not rush to let Li Chunfeng start construction immediately.

Li Yuanying devoted himself to the preparation of Tengzhou Academy. Xiao Deyan recommended him one after another, but it was not enough to meet the requirements of his large academy. Even if he had not recruited students, he had to get a strong enough teacher!

Li Yuanying has issued a recruitment order, allowing people to freely recommend talents from all over the country. He can recommend himself. Even if he is from a neighboring state, as long as he is willing to come over, he can help to complete the past and other things!

Li Yuanying gave a very generous salary, and there were many people who came to apply for the job after the New Year. Li Yuanying asked Wu Mei and the others to take turns to pick people, but they really picked out many suitable people. These people don’t need to be very talented. As long as they are knowledgeable and have no problem with their character, it is enough to stay and be a teacher.

Li Yuanying also sent people to various prefectures and counties in Henan Province to preach, bringing some children from poor families and lost their parents to the academy. Although these people can get some relief, they don’t have to think about studying. Now many dormitories have been built in the academy. Although the conditions are not particularly good, they can also block the wind and rain. Although the food provided by the academy is not particularly rich, it will not make any students hungry.

Li Yuanying and others were advised to study in Tengzhou, so they didn’t have to settle their hometowns in Tengzhou. If they had a promising future, they would still have to afford the money they could feed them to the academy. If they couldn’t afford it, they wouldn’t have to pay it back and find a way to support themselves!

Education is not a business. Li Yuanying never thought of making money from the beginning. He could still afford to raise a college!

With the completion of the academy, the number of people flocking from various prefectures and counties in Henan Province to Tengzhou is increasing. In the following days, Li Yuanying would occasionally meet with a group of designated candidates for the Master, have a long talk with them, clarify the educational philosophy of the academy, and resolutely not let his own people drag him down.

That day, as soon as Li Yuanying met a group of people, he saw Gao Yang running over and told him with a smile that they had discovered an interesting talent. Even Lu Zhaolin said that he was quick-witted and wrote his poems very well. Gao Yang said: "I heard the poems he wrote when he was seven years old. They were really catchy and even I could remember them!"

Li Yuanying felt it was very strange: "Then you can recite it to me."

Gao Yang felt that Li Yuanying was doubting her and was unhappy. She is also a person who loves reading, poetry and prose now!

Gao Yang snorted: "Stop looking down on others, I will remember it after listening to it!" She memorized Li Yuanying's memorization of "Ode to the Goose" she just wrote down.

When Li Yuanying heard the "goose, goose, goose," he felt that Gao Yang was making a fuss. When he heard "white hair floated in green water, red palms blew the clear waves", he felt that this person was indeed very spiritual. If he really wrote it when he was seven years old, he could indeed be called a talent! Li Yuanying asked, "He wrote this poem at the age of seven, how old is he now?"

Gao Yang said: "How do I know how old he is! But he doesn't look very old like us, he should be fourteen or fifteen years old."

Li Yuanying nodded. He had finished his business today, and it was boring to be stuck in the palace. So he just walked with Gao Yang to the academy to meet Wei Shu and the others, preparing to get to know the young genius who was said to be able to write poetry at the age of seven.
