Lu Changfeng glanced at Li Shanhuai. Since there were still more than 200 carriages that had not returned to Chang'an, they had never discussed this matter before.
"Marquis Su, we have not made any arrangements for this matter before. I think the next trip should be after the beginning of spring."
Lu Changfeng thought about it. The journey to the Western Regions is not short. At least the caravan can travel smoothly after the snow melts.
"Okay, I see. I have a suggestion. The next time the caravan goes to the Western Regions, it can collect more crop seeds that are not available in the Tang Dynasty, such as various vegetables."
Su Chen thought for a while and felt that he should treat these family masters back once.
"Next time I will treat you to a new thing!"
Lu Changfeng and others were delighted. Su Chen took the initiative to treat them to a meal. This is a good thing!
"Thank you, Marquis Su. We are looking forward to it!"
Lu Changfeng remembered Su Chen's collection of crop seeds.
"Haha, you are polite!"
Su Chen reminded them that the road construction project would be suspended next month and would be notified to resume work in the beginning of next spring.
The lunch lasted for nearly two hours, and Li Shimin asked the heads of the families present about the progress of the factory construction.
Li Shanhuai told Li Shimin that each Daozhou could be completed in the middle of the twelfth lunar month, and some Daozhou had already been put into production.
Then, the heads of the noble families said goodbye to Li Shimin and others.
Half an hour later, Su Chen felt that it was getting late and had to hurry back to the manor.
The weather would get cold in the evening, so we still rode horses today.
"Your Majesty, it's late now, and we have to go back after riding horses today."
Su Chen stood up and said goodbye to Li Shimin without a trace of dragging his feet.
Li Tai also stood up.
"Haha, men should travel on horses!" Li Shimin smiled faintly, "You and Qingque are the only ones entering the city this time?"
"And Wang Chao and Ma Han." Su Chen had something in his mind that he didn't say. Didn't Li Shimin also ride in a carriage every time he went out?
Li Shimin thought for a moment and looked at Wang Defa, "Old Wang, let Junxian send them back to the manor.
In addition..." Li Shimin whispered to Wang Defa, but others didn't hear it, but Su Chen heard it.
Load a car of gold and transport it to the manor.
"Yes!"
Su Chen glanced at Li Chengqian, "Brother-in-law, help you keep an eye on the generals. I asked them to make two hot pots for me. The appearance doesn't need to be fancy, as long as the lid fits tightly and the bottom of the pot doesn't leak."
"Hot pot?"
Li Chengqian was puzzled.
"Hot pot is... Oh, just do it, and see for yourself when it's done." Su Chen felt that he couldn't explain it clearly for a while, "Your Majesty, uncles, we're leaving first!"
"Father, brother, Qingque will go back first!" Li Tai bowed to Li Shimin and Li Chengqian and then bowed to several ministers.
Li Shimin nodded. Li Tai's call of Li Chengqian as "big brother" just now was very pleasing to Li Shimin's ears.
This is the proper title between brothers!
"Father, I'll go see them off." Li Chengqian stood up and saluted.
Li Shimin nodded and saw that it was indeed late. "Well, I should go back to the palace too. Let's go down together!"
"Brother-in-law, tell me what the hot pot is used for."
Li Chengqian and the other two walked in front and went downstairs.
"What does hot pot have to do with you? Remember to make up the IOU to me, 2.4 million copper coins!"
Li Chengqian didn't get an answer and walked to Li Tai's side.
"Fourth brother, you should know what hot pot is, right?"
"Big brother, to be honest, I don't know what hot pot is. But I saw them being affectionate this morning, so shameful!"
Li Chengqian was not very interested in the gossip about Su Chen and Princess Changle. It's not like he had never seen it before.
"Haha! Fatty, there's no hot pot for you. You can stand aside and watch us eat." Su Chen looked at Li Tai and smiled.
After a while, Su Chen and the other two came to the door of the restaurant.
Wang Chao and Ma Han were chatting with the Jinwu Guards. They also got some benefits at noon today.
They had a good meal.
"Wang Chao, Ma Han, we're going back!"
Li Chengqian walked quickly to Su Chen and said, "Brother-in-law, my father has ordered Commander Li to prepare a carriage. You'd better take a carriage when you go back."
Su Chen then remembered that Li Shimin had arranged for Li Junxian to take them in the private room.
"Well, that's good. We don't have to go back to the palace to get horses."
Li Shimin and others also came to the door of the restaurant downstairs.
"A few days ago, I saw a news in the Chang'an Daily that you can perform surgery on patients with intestinal abscesses.
How is it? Are there any people coming to seek medical treatment?"
Li Shimin stepped forward and patted Su Chen on the shoulder and asked.
"Eh? If your Majesty hadn't mentioned this, I wouldn't have paid much attention to it. But it's good this way. If there are no patients seeking medical treatment, it proves that the people are less sick. The surgery costs eighty cents!"
Su Chen has notHearing someone report this to him, he guessed that there was no appendectomy.
"Well, you make sense."
Li Shimin nodded and agreed with Su Chen's statement.
Not long after.
Li Junxian brought more than fifty Jinwu Guards, a carriage for people, and a carriage for cargo to the door of the restaurant.
The cargo carriage should be loaded with gold.
"Your Majesty, I'm going back!"
Su Chen waved to everyone and jumped on the carriage.
Li Shimin smiled and nodded, watching the carriage Su Chen took slowly drive away.
After a while, he shook his head and smiled, not knowing what he thought of.
"Let's go back to the palace!"
"Great, did you ask about the hot pot?" Li Shimin suddenly remembered the hot pot Su Chen mentioned.
"Uh, father, Su Chen asked me to go to the General Works Department to see for myself."
Li Shimin didn't ask any more questions, and he would know when it was made tomorrow.
…
…
It was already 4:30 in the afternoon when Su Chen returned to the manor.
In another hour, the sun would set, the sky would slowly darken and the wind would blow, and the temperature would drop sharply, and the cold wind would blow on the face like a knife.
"Su Chen, you're back? How much money did you share?"
Princess Changle was chatting with a few girls in the living room, and when she saw Su Chen coming back, she immediately went to greet him.
"Uh, do you like money very much?"
Su Chen, who had just come out of the carriage, felt a chill and forgot to wear gloves today, so he rubbed his hands and asked.
Princess Changle shook her head and smiled, "I'm just curious."
"Oh, let me tell you, it's all gold! More than 50,000 kilograms, gold everywhere!" Su Chen exaggeratedly gestured.
Princess Changle leaned over and looked at the square, but she didn't see any gold, only a cargo carriage.
"I didn't bring back the gold. I left it with my brother-in-law. The cart of gold outside was sent by His Majesty. If you like it, I will have someone bring all the gold back to the manor tomorrow."
Su Chen saw that Princess Changle seemed to be looking for gold, and explained.
Princess Changle shook her head again, "You are having lunch at the restaurant?"
"Yes, what are you having lunch?"
Princess Changle looked up at Su Chen and asked with a smile: "Are you worried that we will eat all the beef?"
"How dare I, how dare I! Even if there is no beef, mutton can be put into hot pot!"
Su Chen bowed his hands and smiled.
Others walked away silently, unable to bear to see the two of them being so disgusting in public
"Huh? Hot pot should be easy to make! Why hasn't it been delivered yet?"
Su Chen suddenly remembered that the two hot pots should be ready in less than a day.
However, Su Chen forgot that the craftsmen who were responsible for making gold and silver utensils for the royal family could not produce them without meticulous carving!
The craftsmen in charge of the work engraved various exquisite relief patterns on the outer edges and lids of the two copper hot pots.
Two ducks swimming, dragonflies skimming the water on lotus leaves...
Incomparably exquisite!
