Chapter 364: The Cement Road (Part II)


"Oh, where did you learn about it," Li Shimin glanced at the eldest grandson Wuji curiously.

"Don't hide it from Your Majesty, the minister's house just built the road into cement some time ago, and the minister personally tried it, and it is indeed very strong."

The eldest grandson Wuji said.

"Yes, I want to go and see" Li Shimin heard that there was a ready-made cement road to see, and he immediately became interested.

"Your Majesty is an honor for your Majesty to have such an interest."

The eldest grandson Wuji said with a smile.

That's it, Li Eryi and his entourage didn't go shopping in the East Market, recruited the accompanying guards, or got on the horse, got on the car, and rushed towards the eldest grandson Wuji's home.

After the cement road was repaired, it was very smooth, and after special treatment, it was washed clean and abnormal, Li Shimin walked a few steps on it, and after stepping on it a few more times, he nodded quietly: "This road seems to be really good." ” "I just don't know if it's strong or not, if only it could be like the palace wall."

Cheng Yanjin stood aside and said with a grin.

"What's so hard about this, just try it."

Wei Chigong was born in iron and had a relatively straight temperament, so after hearing this, he didn't say a word, turned around and grabbed a chain hammer from one of the guards, and smashed it to the ground when the wheel was round.

The eldest grandson Wuji looked at those killing blanks, the corners of his eyes twitched, he had never seen anyone go to someone else's house to hammer the chain for decades.

But before the old grandson could finish sighing, the chain hammer weighing more than 20 catties had already smashed to the ground with a bang, and then bounced up again, leaving a few small white spots on the ground, and the few spikes on the chain hammer had been completely smashed flat.

"Good solid ground."

Li Shimin looked at everything in front of him, a little surprised, but he didn't blame Wei Chigong for his recklessness, anyway, it wasn't his family's land, even if it was smashed, it didn't matter.

Cheng Yanjin looked at it for a long time and pouted and said: "Hmph, I know that Li Muyun's kid is not honest, and he said that the cement is not enough, if it is not enough, what will the ground of the old fox's house be repaired?"

Scolding other people's old foxes in other people's homes, except for Cheng Biting Jin, there is basically no one left, the eldest grandson Wuji is angry and his old face is flushed, if it weren't for the fact that His Majesty the Emperor is on the side, it is estimated that he has the heart to go up and fight with him.

Of course, to some people's ears, Lao Cheng's words still have a strong sour smell in them, which is clearly envy, jealousy and hatred.

But fortunately, Li Shimin didn't care about these subtleties, and he didn't pay attention to Lao Cheng's complaints, just looking at the ground and not knowing what he was thinking.

After a long time, Li Shimin raised his head and said to the eldest grandson Wuji: "Wuji, how much will it cost when this road is repaired, do you know?"

Speaking of the cost, the eldest grandson Wuji was a little embarrassed: "I don't know this specific number, this road and this road were promised to be sent for free at the beginning, so it doesn't cost money." ” "That bastard would be so kind to give it away for free, I'm afraid the money has already been counted into the wall."

Cheng Yanjin didn't seem to know that he had become a hate, and he was still chattering on the sidelines.

Li Shimin naturally wouldn't say anything more to him, but after listening to his words, he didn't hear it, and continued to ask the eldest grandson Wuji: "Then according to your observation, will the cost of this road be very high?"

"Your Majesty, if you only count the cost, the minister thinks that this road will not cost much, if you take into account the service life and the cost of future maintenance, the minister thinks that the cost of repairing the cement road is only lower than the normal official road."

"Is that really the case" Li Shimin hugged his arms and rubbed his chin with one hand: "If this is the case, then it is not impossible for Li Muyun to renovate all the official roads in Shuozhou." ” "What's not okay, it's just too good" Shuozhou Shanyin City, Li Muyun squatted on a chair and patted the table to give an education lesson to a group of subordinate officials below.

"Lord Envoy, even so, our government is really running out of money, but this road has only been repaired a little bit."

Qian Botao said with a bitter face.

"How can there be no money if there is no money," Li Muyun was stunned when he said.

Qian Botao said helplessly: "My lord, you really don't have any money, although the stones for road construction don't cost money, but the cement always costs money, and there are labor costs, you give the labor costs so high, although the progress of road construction has accelerated, but this cost is also big." ” The corners of Li Muyun's mouth twitched, and he looked at Qian Botao with the eyes of a monster, and then looked at Jiang Renbin, Fang Zhizhi and others: "You won't always use the money of the government to build roads, right?"

"Lord Envoy, we are cultivating the official road, which is the responsibility of the government, what can we do without the money of the government."

Jiang Renbin felt that Li Muyun's question was very strange, so he asked rhetorically.

"You" Li Muyun only felt that he was really defeated by the gang guys, and he jumped down from the chair in anger: "You all let the fools match each other, what are the things in your heads to build roads with your own money, what kind of people do you be, Lao Tzu is a thief, what do thieves and thieves do, do you know that you specialize in robbery and spend your own money to build roads, why didn't you pay for your wives and children?"

Probably because he was too excited, Killer Li stood in the lobby of the government as an assassin, and openly shouted that he was a bandit, which made everyone feel very embarrassed.

Sun Liang, the county magistrate of Shanyin County, who had been in contact with him for a long time, was entangled for a long time, and had to stand up and remind: "Lord Envoy, I, we are the government, not the bandits."

But apparently Sun Liang underestimated the level of Li Muyun's hysteria, and just after he finished speaking, he heard a certain assassin shouting there: "What's the difference, it's just that one has a license and one doesn't have a license." ” It's over, it's too deep into the play, and Fang Yizhi, who hasn't spoken, has a flash of worry in his eyes, he really doesn't know if Li Muyun should follow everyone in the mountain now.

Chang'an, after leaving the house of the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Shimin, who was in a good mood, returned to the palace.

Empress Changsun is teaching her youngest son Li Zhi to practice calligraphy in the dormitory, the little guy is already four years old, sitting behind a small table, concentrating on writing big characters that are not much stronger than a dog climbing, and when she saw Li Shimin coming in, she immediately threw the pen and jumped up and ran over to hug Li Er's thigh: "Father, Father Pheasant Slave misses you" "Pheasant slave Hugh wants to be naughty, come back and finish writing" Empress Changsun was insightful about Li Zhi's lazy behavior, and ruthlessly pierced him.

"Oh" Li Zhi, who was not yet Li Er's thigh-high height, was peeped through, pouted and looked at his father, who was looking at him with interest, and moved back to his small table step by step.

When Empress Changsun saw that her son had gone back to write, she came to Li Shimin's side and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, did you encounter anything happy today?"

"The queen who knows me is also, sure enough, I can't hide anything from you."

Li Shimin smiled and handed the folding fan in his hand to Empress Changsun, patted him on the head when he passed by Li Zhi's side, and then said with great interest: "I heard that Li Muyun's kid is repairing all the official roads in Shuozhou, Guanyin thinks that when he has no money, how can I rectify him":
