Datang ancient martial arts system

Chapter 172 Si Zi Attracts Attention

Li Quan had already understood coal production, so he couldn't sit still anymore, and immediately set off for Chang'an.

And Yizhou did not change because of his departure, but became busier.

A large amount of wool is being transported back. At this time, outside businessmen don't understand the usefulness of Situ Changfeng's collection of wool, but they can earn money for nothing, and they are running around endlessly.

Yizhou's life is getting better and better, and its reputation is gradually spreading far and wide. The workshops and mines are now on the right track. Situ Changfeng finally doesn't have to run around all day, and stays in the city with peace of mind, always paying attention to urban construction.

The ten green brick kilns built on the mountain are burning all day long, and bricks are produced from one kiln every ten days. The first thing to be built is the city wall.

The entire city wall is built with bricks and volcanic ash mixed with sand. The sand is everywhere in the Gobi Desert. The volcanic ash was pulled from an extinct volcano in the Gobi, and the journey is far away.

Fortunately, the herdsmen had no shortage of horses, and under Situ Changfeng's heavy reward, they still brought them in an endless stream.

With the completion of the city wall, Situ Changfeng, who had been in Yizhou for almost five months, finally let go of the big stone in his heart.

With the city defense, at least there is no need to worry about the harassment of horse bandits and others. Even if the Turks attack and defend for a period of time, they still have confidence.

Seeing autumn, the Gobi Desert is getting colder and colder, and the construction of private houses is also on the agenda. According to the plan, it will gradually rebuild. The people only need to pay off their debts with work, and they can be allocated a small courtyard.

Although it is said to be a small courtyard, only one house has been built. It is built with green bricks and has a heated kang.

The heated kang is connected to the kitchen next door. As long as coal is burned, the kang can be warmed up, and a pot of water is usually placed on it, and hot water can be enjoyed at any time for washing and bathing.

The people of Yizhou are the first beneficiaries of coal production, and Situ Changfeng will not let the people under his rule become like charcoal sellers.

As long as the common people do things for the government or their own workshops, they can receive enough coal for daily use for free every day, and other people who want to buy it can buy a catty for only one copper coin.

Of course, if the Turks and Westerners who did not contribute to the government wanted to buy it, it would be much more expensive.

Situ Changfeng's move deserved the support of the whole city, and no one thought that life could be so warm.

Many people even set up the Longevity Archway for Situ Changfeng, which made Situ Changfeng's reputation even smaller.

While Situ Changfeng was busy, Li Shimin was meeting Li Quan.

Chang'an City!Palace of Lizheng!
"Is this made of wool?" Li Shimin stretched out his palm, caressing a woolen sweater worn by ordinary people in front of him, and asked with raised eyebrows.

"Return to Your Majesty, I witnessed the whole production process with my own eyes," Li Quan said respectfully without raising his head.

"This is indispensable! Your Majesty, wool is just a useless thing, but it can be easily made into clothes. Not only will the national treasury generate a lot of income, but also no one will freeze to death in the Tang Dynasty." The eldest grandson's eyes lit up, excited Said.

"My minister congratulates your majesty. This is an unprecedented event. It was completed under the leadership of your majesty. Your majesty is far superior to the ancestors. My minister congratulates your majesty." Li Quan said loudly, bending over.

"Haha! It seems that everyone thinks this is a good thing. Then, according to Situ Changfeng's intention, let the rest of the family contribute their efforts. You should handle this matter with Li Quan." Li Shimin laughed happily. nodded and said with a smile.

"The minister obeys the order!"

"This Situ Changfeng really cares about Sizi, he is a qualified master." After Li Quan left, the eldest grandson said with a smile.

"Guanyin servant, you only see one of them. Situ Changfeng's move is good for Sizi, and it also shows that he has no dissent. At the same time, he has also made friends with several other families. More importantly, it makes me have to pay attention to Yizhou and dispatch Personnel, military support." Li Shimin explained with a smile.

Although he saw through Situ Changfeng's intentions, he was not angry because it was just human nature.

"This Situ Changfeng is also a person with a flexible mind, he doesn't look like a general at all." The eldest grandson said angrily.

"Second brother and second sister-in-law, who are you talking about? If someone dares to make you angry, second sister-in-law, I will tear him apart!" A man with a huge frame, but looking thin and with a sickly yellow face entered the hall and said loudly.

"Silang, why are you willing to leave your small courtyard!" Li Shimin asked in surprise.

"Hey, I'm just resting in peace. I want to see little Si Zi, so I'm coming over to my second sister-in-law." The person who came was none other than the number one master of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuanba, the King of Zhao in the West Prefecture.

"Fourth Uncle! Fourth Uncle!" Just at this time, Xiao Sizi finished playing outside and was brought back by the maid. When he saw Li Yuanba, he shouted happily and stretched out a pair of little hands to hug him.

"Oh, my little darling, slow down, slow down!" Li Yuanba shouted happily, opened his big hands, as if holding a rare treasure, and carefully picked up the little Sizi, with a smile on his face and a big mouth. smirked.

It is strange to say that Li Yuanba is not a womanizer, he only loves martial arts and fighting, and he has no heirs when he is married. He is also extremely indifferent to others, even to his only apprentice Li Tai, but only to Xiao Si son, I love you so much.

"Hehe! Hehe!" Li Yuanba gently picked up the little si, and laughed and spun around twice, making the little si giggle.

"Fourth brother, don't spoil her rotten. She is almost lawless now and plays like crazy everywhere every day." The eldest grandson said dotingly as he looked at the two of them playing.

"Crazy! Xiao Si's body is weak, how can she be allowed to exercise vigorously? Isn't this..." Li Yuanba said with a hint of blame when he heard this.

"Hehe, don't worry, fourth brother. It's because I didn't explain clearly to you. Sizi took the medicine given by her master and wore the earth core warm jade. Her health has improved a lot. Didn't you notice that her voice is much louder?" Is it?" Li Shimin hastily explained.

"Oh, Sizi is apprenticed to a teacher? I don't know which expert it is?" Li Yuanba relaxed and asked.

"I don't know this person's fourth brother, but he is Luo Cheng, Duke of Tan, and Luo Song, the spear god. His name is Situ Changfeng." Li Shimin introduced.

"Oh, I have a chance to see it!" Li Yuanba nodded and said, then turned his head to observe Xiao Si.

"Fourth brother, I'm afraid I won't be able to see him for a short time. At present, this person is being arranged by the martial arts academy to guard Yizhou!" Li Shimin said with a smile.

"Second brother, how can you let Sizi start practicing martial arts now!" Li Yuanba asked with a frown.

"What?" Li Shimin asked in shock. He felt that he had heard wrongly when Li Yuanba said that Xiao Sizi was practicing martial arts.

"Hehe! Fourth brother, you said that your son is practicing martial arts? How is this possible, neither your second brother nor I know about it!" The eldest grandson also shook his head and said with a laugh.
