Chapter 484 Volume 5 I am in Chang'an during the Ming Dynasty

There is no doubt whether Yan Lide has any selfish motives.

As the great general who was the supervisor of the Tang Dynasty, he naturally wanted to compete with the general supervisor of the Ming Dynasty.

After all, there is competition between them.

But if he only relies on himself, how can he fight? What should he fight with?

During their time at Riyue Mountain, both Zhang Erniu and Fang Blacksmith were quite enthusiastic towards him, but he could see that behind this enthusiasm was disdain and provocation.

But he was unable to refute.

He had no choice but to say that the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty were extremely skilled, but he couldn't find anything else to say to prove the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty.

"We'll talk about this later. What matters now is whether you can make exactly the same curved shaft plow after returning to Chang'an?" Duan Lun said, "If such an important weapon of the country is completely dependent on the Ming Dynasty, not only the cost

The problem may not be easy for Your Majesty."

"It's hard to say for now. I just took a look and drew the specific structure from memory." When it came to serious matters, Yan Lide immediately put away his selfishness and said, "If you let me study Qu Yuanli more,

It should be no problem.

If we just explore it by ourselves, it may take some time, but it can be done.

Although they are just improving the previous plows, this improvement process probably took them a lot of time. After all, after making it, they have to test it and so on, which takes a lot of time."

"It doesn't matter. I have already placed an order for one hundred sets of Qu Yuanli with the Ministry of Household Affairs of the Ming Dynasty. I will allow you to dismantle and study them when the time comes.

But I have a request, that is, Datang must mass-produce the Quyuan plow before the year 2016.

You also know that this thing is related to people's livelihood and is more important to the people than anything else.

Soon after the beginning of the new year, the busy farming season will come. By then, I won’t talk about the entire Tang Dynasty, but it will have to be used around Chang’an, right?

If the Quyuan plow is popularized sooner, one less person in the world will starve to death."

Duan Lun may be selfish sometimes, but more often than not, he is indeed a competent official.

How to measure whether an official is competent or not? In fact, all we need to do is look at the weight of the people in his heart.

Of course, the reason why he works hard to promote all this is not just for the common people.

However, when Yan Lide heard this, he shook his head and said: "How could Your Highness sell such an important weapon to me so easily?

Wouldn’t His Highness follow the Ming Dynasty’s royal court first?

After all, at the end of the day, the one who is most short of food now is the Ming Dynasty."

"Don't worry about that." Speaking of this, Duan Lun said with a smile, "You don't understand. As you said, I am not as good as you when it comes to engineering and learning.

But when it comes to being an official, you are still far behind.

His Highness will definitely do this business, and will give priority to Datang.

In the future, we will even do it with Tubo, Goguryeo, and even other countries in the Western Regions."

"Huh?" Yan Lide really didn't understand.

Seeing him like this, Duan Lun smiled and said: "Some people may only see immediate interests in their eyes, but some people's eyes are focused on the interests of the world. Even if you tell me, you don't understand."

His evaluation is not low.

However, Yan Lide didn't bother to ask, he just needed to do some research. If he couldn't do it according to the diagram, there was no need for the general who would be the supervisor to do it.

But when he thought of the mechanisms that the Ming Dynasty generals had built on the Lian Nu, he said with some worry: "It won't be the same as the Lian Nu, right? At that time, in order to prevent others from imitating their Lian Nu, the royal court of the Ming Dynasty, but in the Lian Nu

There was a lot of useless work done on the crossbow that cost us time and effort.”

He had not forgotten this. Back then, Ming Dynasty had made many things on the serial crossbow that looked useful but were actually just to confuse others. He had a headache when he thought about this.

Compared with the Quyuan plow, the Liannu can only be regarded as a small thing. For a large object like the Quyuan plow, it is much more convenient to do these little tricks.

This will definitely delay their research efficiency.

"Don't worry about this." Duan Lun shook his head and said, "Judging from His Highness's concern for the common people, he will not allow such a thing to happen.

The Liannu is a strategic material, so you can do this, but the Quyuanli is related to people's livelihood, and His Highness will definitely not do this."

Duan Lun is also a smart man.

He knew that the purpose of Li Chengqian's research on this thing was for the people's support. Although the people's support could not really help him because of his Qu Yuuli, with this thing, at least in the hearts of the people, Li Chengqian had the foundation of the people's support.

If he had lost this opportunity for the sake of petty profit, then Li Chengqian would not be where he is today.

Moreover, he also vaguely discovered that Li Chengqian was using a subtle and silent method to slowly show his presence in the Tang Dynasty.

From the initial paper to simple stationery to the final Three Character Classic, Li Chengqian has left a deep impression on the minds of readers.

Now it is Quyuanli again, and it will definitely take root in the hearts of the people in the future.

If this continues, in another ten or twenty years, even if Li Er and those guys in the Chang'an court want to depose the prince, it will be extremely difficult.

Thinking of this, Duan Lun simply shook his head.

Is it none of my business?

In the next ten or twenty years, whether I will still be alive or not is anyone’s guess.

At least, it's going in a good direction for now, that's fine.

But he didn't realize that this was the most terrifying thing about Li Chengqian.

Although every step he takes is for the benefit of the people of the world, in fact, it is himself who benefits the most.

He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world!

Li Chengqian is practicing this sentence very well!

"Duan Shangshu, Pu Xiruo, Shangshu of the Ministry of Household Affairs of the Ming Dynasty, is asking for an audience." At this moment, someone came to report.

"Here we come." Duan Lun heard this and immediately stood up and said, "Please come quickly!"

He knew what Pusi Luo was here for.

"Pu Shangshu came to the door, but he was far away to welcome him." Seeing Pu Xiruo enter the door, Duan Lun immediately went up to greet him.

On the side, Yan Lide just cupped his hands as a greeting.

"Duan Shangshu is so polite." Pu Xiruo happened to see the drawings drawn by Yan Lide, and immediately came over and praised, "General Yan's drawings are indeed very good, but he has already been able to draw to this level after just looking at them once.

If I hadn't known that I, the Ming Dynasty General, would be the prisoner and the guards were tight, I would have thought that this drawing was from my Ming Dynasty General, the prisoner."

Duan Lun's expression changed slightly in response to Pu Xiruo's strange words, but Yan Lide didn't take it seriously.

To him, this was normal. After all, the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty did not cherish their brooms for a day or two.

What happened to spying on other people's cooking skills and being criticized?

"It makes Pu Shangshu laugh." Yan Lide said with a smile, "I am very skilled, but it is obvious that there are still many shortcomings."

"Does Pu Shangshu come here for something important?" Duan Lun calmed down his emotions and then said, "Does it mean that what I told Pu Shangshu this morning has been settled?"

He obviously asked knowingly.

"Yes, I came here just for this matter." Pu Xiluo didn't mind, and immediately smiled and said, "After Duan Shangshu left, I went to inquire about it.

Not to mention, the Ming Dynasty Wangting himself doesn’t have much of a Quyuan plow. After all, the Ming Dynasty Wangting has to prepare for spring sowing at the beginning of the new year, so he may be sorry for Duan Shangshu.”

After Yan Lide heard this, he was about to stand up, but Duan Lun was one step ahead of him and said: "There is no way to say whether it is right or wrong. Everyone knows that the situation in the Ming Dynasty is indeed not easy."

After saying that, Duan Lun sighed, and then said, "But a hundred pairs of Qu Yuanli can't solve the actual problems of the Ming Dynasty. I don't want much, just a hundred pairs. It's not like asking for it.

A thousand pairs."

He knew that this was Puxiluo's negotiation strategy, but this strategy was still a bit new to him.

Not to mention that Li Chengqian had promised him, even if Li Chengqian had not promised him, if the Ming Dynasty Wang Ting really did not sell the Quyuan plow to the outside world, Puxiruo would not come immediately even if he did not send someone to tell him.

He was so eager, obviously because he wanted to get this deal done.

Of course, Pu Xiluo's performance was actually normal. Previously, Li Qinjian was managing Daming's business. Firstly, he had no experience in this area, and secondly, he had no ability in this area.

The reason why I took action in person this time was just to learn something. If I really want Li Qinjian to get all this in his hands, wouldn't he, the Minister of Household Affairs, be ignored?

"That's what I'm saying..." Pu Xiruo stopped talking and pondered for a moment before saying, "I heard from General Zhang that His Highness only reserved two hundred sets of Qu Yuanli to prepare for trading grain with Su Pi, and the rest of the Qu Yuanli was

Arrangements have been made for the shafts and plows."

Hearing what Pu Xiruo said, Duan Lun couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

This guy is really a bit tender, isn't it obvious?

If you want to buy it, buy two hundred pairs.

At this moment, Duan Lun still didn't know that Li Chengqian had seen through his thoughts. The so-called two hundred pairs must have been proposed by Li Chengqian.

He estimated that there were not many Fu Yuanli in the entire Ming Dynasty, and Li Chengqian might just want to buy more since it was a one-time deal.

The price may be surprisingly high.
