Li Er's tone is unquestionable.

Chen Chuzhi frowned: "Father, isn't this difficult for someone to force?"

Li Eryi spread his hands: "Yeah, I'm going to make things difficult for others, how about it? Anyway, it's impossible for me to let my daughter follow you to wander the streets."

Chen Chu: "..."

Hey!

How shameless!

This skin is half as thick as Chen Chu's.

He frowned first, then suddenly stretched his brows, and asked, "Father, do you keep your word?"

Li Er sneered: "You are not joking!"

Chen Chu asked again: "This mansion can only be big, not small?"

"Yes, the bigger the better. After all, Lizhi is the eldest princess. How can she lose the face of the royal family in the place where she will live in the future?" Li Er continued to sneer.

Chen Chu shrugged his shoulders, and said in embarrassment: "It's not difficult to build a mansion, but I don't have any land."

Li Er waved his hand and said proudly: "I will give you an order to Liu Jianren, the governor of Jingzhao Mansion, to let him fully cooperate with you. As long as it is in the city and there are no buildings, you can choose whatever you want, as big as you want."

Li Er didn't care at all.

The ministers didn't care either.

In their view, a mansion is just a mansion, which doesn't occupy much land at all.

In Chang'an City, there is still a large amount of vacant land, all of which belong to the royal family or the imperial court.

Chen Chu smiled slightly, and said, "If that's the case, then I'll take my leave."

This thoughtless sentence made Li Er a little confused, and asked, "What are you doing?"

Chen Chu walked out without looking back: "Time waits for no one, only seizes the day and night, father, I will go to build the mansion right now..."

"Hahaha……"

Everyone present suddenly burst into laughter.

Changsun Wuji couldn't help but said: "Some people say that Chen Chu is a ghost, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that. He thinks that building a mansion is just a play. As everyone knows, building a mansion takes a lot of time, such as leveling the land. It will take at least half a year, and the wood will be transported to Chang'an, and it needs to be dried for more than eight months, and then the mansion will be completed and decorated. Start building the mansion, I'm afraid it will be after the beginning of spring, and the time will be longer..."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Everyone was in a good mood to be able to trick Chen Chu.

……

Chapter 186 The army presses the city

Chen Shuda said: "I have no choice but to come up with this method. After two or three years, when Chen Chu grows up and his temper has been sharpened, he can naturally marry the eldest princess."

Li Er was in a good mood, and said: "My dear friends, you have solved a big problem in my heart. Well, today, I invite you to have a meal of mutton hot pot in the Ganlu Palace."

……

Just when Li Er and his little friends were eating mutton hot pot in Ganlu Hall.

The newly built pencil factory is far away from Changsun's pencil factory.

In one of the yards.

Zhu Neng and others sat together, frowning.

Everyone sighed.

I just heard Zhu Neng say: "Everyone, we are lucky to meet such a good man as the boss. Now, pencils, popsicles, everything is being produced in an orderly manner, but we are free. It has been half a month. There is nothing to do, and the boss has to pay for us every day, this money, I feel uneasy..."

"Yeah, I've never seen such a generous boss."

"If I met the boss earlier, who would go to Qingfengzhai to be a bandit!"

"Old Zhu is right, the money is not secure."

These kind-hearted and simple guys actually feel uncomfortable sitting and receiving money like this.

That's why everyone is so depressed.

Just when everyone was mourning, a figure walked in.

Zhu Neng and the others stood up together and shouted excitedly, "Boss!"

The person who came in was none other than Chen Chu.

Chen Chu waved his hands and said, "Don't be idle, Lao Zhu, come on, you can allocate the manpower to collect these raw materials for me, the more the better..."

Zhu Neng took it over and took a look, only to see the words on the paper: Limestone, common clay, iron slag.

After following Chen Chu for a long time, everyone is familiar with these things.

Zhu Neng immediately arranged for people to search for these things separately.

Chen Chu said: "Old Zhu, you bring some good craftsmen and come with me..."

Several people followed Chen Chu to the foot of a hill not far from the pencil factory.

Chen Chu took out another blueprint and said, "Use the fastest speed to build a furnace, which is similar to a blast furnace."

Zhu Neng immediately took the craftsmen and started to get busy.

Back then, Chen Chu took Zhu Neng and others to build blast furnaces one after another.

Now to build a furnace, it is naturally within reach.

It was dark.

A brand new furnace was built.

The people Zhu Neng sent out also came back.

An old man said: "Boss, I went to the iron mine in the north of Chang'an City to buy iron ore slag. I thought it would take a lot of effort, but unexpectedly, I quietly gave the general guarding the iron mine ten pennies, and he paid for it." Let me wait until the iron ore slag is pulled away, and I can pull as much as I need..."

Chen Chu's eyes lit up.

Iron ore slag can be used as waste in later generations.

But in this era of rough manufacturing, iron slag has no value, but is a burden.

He immediately called Cheng Chubi and told him, "Chubi, organize your people overnight, gather the people from the pencil factory, the high-grade paper factory, and your people from Lu Guogong's mansion, and go to the north of the city to transport the iron ore." Slag, we must be quick, and try to transport all the iron ore slag here before tonight, even if we can’t finish it, we must transport it out of the iron mine and find a place to pile it up, understand?”

Cheng Chubi was surprised and said: "Uncle, isn't it iron slag? It's something no one wants. If you need it, you can get it anytime."

Chen Chu said: "Stupid child, the iron ore slag is free now, but in the future, it may not be so. Go and tell everyone that all wages will be increased."

"Yes!"

Everyone was excited when they heard about the salary increase.

For those who have status and status and do not worry about food and clothing, working overtime is a painful thing.

But for these people who can't even eat enough, they are very happy.

Because working overtime makes money!

As long as there is money to take, everyone will never be reluctant to give up their own strength.

In a short time, the pencil factory, high-grade paper factory, and people from Lu Guogong's mansion headed for Chang'an City with torches.

Chen Chu felt that it was not enough, so he called Cheng Chubi again, and mobilized the people from several surrounding villages, ox carts, horse carts, donkey carts, and rickshaws were all dispatched.

According to incomplete statistics, at least 6000 people traveled to and from the north of Chang'an City and outside the East Chang'an City that night.

at the same time.

However, Chen Chu stayed up all night, took Zhu Neng and others, and started to light a fire overnight to burn cement.

……

Bang bang bang.

Quiet late night.

Outside the main hall, footsteps and human voices suddenly sounded.

Li Er woke up suddenly.

He turned his head and saw crowds of people outside the hall, and the torches were shining.

He pushed away the eldest grandson empress in his arms, put on the dragon robe, before he even had time to put on his shoes, he rushed to the front hall in a hurry.

Just in time to see Gao Chen walking in, he asked, "What's going on? Why is the Yanjia Palace in such a mess?"

Gao Chen hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, something is wrong. Mr. Changsun and Mr. Fang broke into the Yanjia Hall, saying that there is something very important to report to His Majesty."

Yanjia Hall is the place where the queen lives, the harem of the harem.

Unless there is a major event, ministers are not allowed to set foot in half a step.

Changsun Wuji and others actually barged in?

Could it be...

Li Er's expression changed drastically, and he hurried out.

When he came outside the main hall, he saw Changsun Wuji, Wang Gui, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and others gathered here, all of them looked shocked.

Li Er asked: "My dear friends, could it be that someone is rebelling against you?"

Changsun Wuji said: "Your Majesty, after the time passed, the city suddenly burst into flames. I received a report from the city guard that countless torches were lit outside the city. It seemed that there was a large army pressing the border. But seeing the flames of the march, there are at least tens of thousands of people..."

The army is approaching the city?

He looked up at the northeast sky, and it was really bright.

The momentum is great!

Li Er's complexion changed drastically.

This kind of thing happened to him before.

That is the Turkic army.

Today, the Turks have been pacified.

Who else?

Who else has the ability to quietly send a large army to surround Chang'an City?

Li Er was confused.

The ministers were also puzzled.

Li Er asked: "Did you send someone to investigate? Did the garrison in the city ever send out?"

Hou Junji, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, said: "Your Majesty, I have already dispatched scouts to go out of the city to investigate. I think there will be news in a short time, and all the garrison troops in the city will be dispatched. However, if there are really tens of thousands of horses, I'm afraid it will be necessary to ask for help." fierce battle."

Under Gao Chen's service, Li Er was neatly dressed.

His face turned cold, and he said: "Hmph, where is the thief who dares to attack Chang'an City at night, dear friends, go back quickly and change into armor, and follow me out of the palace to meet the enemy."

Back then, when Chang'an was unguarded, Li Er took more than 60 cavalry and scared the Turkic army away.

Now, there are still soldiers and horses in Chang'an City, how can they be cowardly?

For a while, from Li Er down, everyone was impassioned.

Niu Jinda and the others rubbed their hands together excitedly: "Oh, it's been a long time since I stabbed someone..."

……

Chapter 187

Not long after, Li Er changed into a suit of armor.

Cheng Yaojin, on the other hand, put on a bright light armor, blinding people's eyes under the light of the torches at night.

Niu Jinda, Li Jing and others were all very excited.

Ever since the Turks were wiped out, these guys who were famous for killing people lost their fun.

Now that there are people who don't open their eyes to attack Chang'an, what's the matter?
