Taiji Palace.

"Erlang, I hope you can figure it out, otherwise you will hurt many people's hearts."

Li Yuan looked at his son in front of him, and he regained his imperial demeanor, with a long-lost smile on his face.

"Father, in fact, every time I met Su Chen, I never guarded against him, and I was sincere to him.

It's just that in the dead of night, it's inevitable to worry about gains and losses, and be suspicious."

Li Shimin felt like a thousand pounds of weight was lifted off his body.

He slowly turned around and bowed to Li Yuan, "Father, I'm sorry for worrying you!" Li Shimin sat back down.

At this time, the emperor Li Shimin's face no longer had the gloomy expression before.

Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan with a smile, and said with some pride:

"Father, that kid helped me solve a huge troublesome problem today. The loss of war horses has always been a headache and helpless thing.

That kid drew a few things casually and solved the problem.

Not only did it save the treasury tens of millions of guan every year, but it also greatly increased the victory rate of soldiers killing the enemy on horseback."

Li Yuan was a little surprised, "Then what is this thing used for?"

He was also an emperor, so he naturally knew the financial expenditure caused by the loss of war horses.

"Father, one thing is called horseshoe, a piece of iron sheet shaped like a horse hoof, nailed to the bottom of the horse hoof, so that only the iron sheet is worn, and the horse hoof will not be damaged.

The second is called saddle, fixed on the horse's back, with the saddle, the soldiers can kill the enemy on horseback as if walking on flat ground, that kid is really a genius!"

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he remembered the various things Su Chen had done before, and he had to say that Su Chen was a genius.

Wang Defa was taking a nap outside the door as usual. Suddenly, a young eunuch came to him and whispered.

He handed Wang Defa several drawings, "Your Majesty, Lord Su sent Wei Yi to deliver the drawings and asked the craftsmen of the Ministry of Works to make them. The quantity required is quite large.

But Lord Su said that he would pay according to the market price this time."

Wang Defa presented the drawings to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin was very surprised. When did that kid ask the Ministry of Works to make things and pay? He took the drawings and glanced at them.

"Just ask the Ministry of Works to do it urgently as that kid said. In addition, Wei Yi is now called Zhang Long."

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he handed the drawings to Wang Defa.

"Yes!"

Wang Defa walked outside the door and called a young eunuch to take the drawings to the Ministry of Works to pass on the oral order.

Li Shimin remembered something and said with a smile: "I wonder what the boy dislikes about the Tang Dynasty this time.

I heard Gao Ming once said that Gao Ming asked the boy to ride a horse during a trip. The boy looked at the horse and shook his head: This horse is not right and cannot be ridden. It would be bad if he fell off. Now I think it's because there is no saddle."

As long as Su Chen is not used to eating or using something, he will make it himself and draw it himself.

Li Yuan laughed loudly, "Su Chen is such a wonderful guy. He is so particular about where he lives in a shabby hut!"

Li Shimin also laughed after hearing this, "What a pity. If it weren't for Chi Nu, that fool wouldn't know that I am the Emperor Li Er in his mouth.

He once wanted to help Gao Ming get a title!"

"Hahaha..."

Suddenly Li Shimin remembered something else, "Father, I have something else to deal with. I will have dinner with you with the Queen."

Li Yuan stood up and stretched, "You go and do your work. I will go outside for a walk."

When Li Shimin was about to reach the door of the palace.

"Erlang!"

Li Shimin turned around and looked back, only to see Li Yuan throwing out a special material sign. "Father, this sign..."

Li Yuan smiled and raised his hand to interrupt Li Shimin.

"You arrange your confidants to hang this sign on their chests near Kangpingfang, and someone will explain it to them."

After Li Yuan finished speaking, he waved his hand to signal Li Shimin to get busy.

Looking at Li Yuan's smiling face, Li Shimin also smiled, bowed, and left Taiji Palace with Wang Defa.

After walking out of the palace for a few steps, Li Shimin suddenly stopped and Wang Defa almost bumped into him.

"Old man, has the money that kid asked for been sent?"

Wang Defa replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, the 600,000 strings of cash that the Marquis wants have been sent to the manor."

Li Shimin nodded, turned around and continued to walk forward, but suddenly stopped and turned around again.

Bending over and looking at Wang Defa, he shouted: "Old man, how much did you say?"

Li Shimin stared at Wang Defa, as if Wang Defa would be killed immediately if he answered incorrectly.

"Your Majesty, 600,000 guan, it was you who personally ordered the allocation of 600,000 guan and sent people to Su Houye's manor!"

Wang Defa wiped the saliva on his face and replied tremblingly.

When Li Shimin heard 600,000 guan, he jumped up in anger and slapped his legs and cursed:

"600,000 guan? Old man, I think you are old and confused, it's 580,000 guan, 580,000!

YouDo you think my money came from the wind? 20,000 strings! If you don't get my 20,000 strings back, I'll make you hungry for nine meals in three days!" Wang Defa was frightened, but what does this have to do with me? Before going to the manor, it was you who asked the Ministry of Revenue to allocate 600,000 strings to send to others. "I know my crime, Your Majesty, don't worry, I will send someone to get back the 20,000 strings." Wang Defa was about to call for someone to get back the huge sum of money. Li Shimin stopped Wang Defa, looked around and whispered: "Come back, and get back the 10,000 strings that the kid spent on the engagement banquet last time. "

Wang Defa hesitated and said timidly:

"Your Majesty, the total cost of the engagement banquet is 850 guan, which is 10,000 guan..."

The cost of 10 sets of round tables is 300 guan, and the eight-immortal table is only 5 wen per set now. Who would buy something that can be easily imitated?

In addition, the food for the engagement banquet is more than 50 guan, which means that all the food is taken out of the palace.

Li Shimin was so anxious that he jumped up and down when he heard it, and he turned against Tian Gang!

"You old man, I think you are really confused. Don't workers want money? I sent so many people to help, don't they count the wages?"

Wang Defa hurriedly admitted his mistake, "I am confused, I know I am wrong!"

Then he gritted his teeth and said viciously: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will go and get the money back for you. "

Turning around and wiping his face of saliva, Wang Defa hurried to find someone.

Li Shimin turned around and watched Wang Defa go find someone, and then he felt relieved.

"If you don't manage the family, you don't know how hard it is to make money!"

Li Shimin said to Wang Defa who was walking away.

Then he hurried to the imperial study.

Li Yuan shook his head watching from a distance, he was really crazy about poverty.

...

"Su Chen, what's the important matter you just now?"

Li Tai saw Su Chen's hurried look before and asked with concern.

"It's okay, let's discuss recruiting people." Su Chen waved his hand.

"Zhao Hu, go to the village chief and see if the village can still arrange 100 people, young and strong."

"Build a road out of the mine, and then use ox carts to transport the crushed ore materials.

After the road is repaired, they will be assigned to break up the larger pieces of ore, just like the last time we built the cement road. More people will be better. The wages are 25 coins a day. "

"Yes, Lord, I will go find the village chief now."
