Happy Little Scholar

The group of people who were accustomed to using the sky and the quilt as their bed, and eating, drinking, and having sex on the bed, suddenly became very particular.

No one urinates or spits anywhere anymore, and the village has a completely new look.

Wang Wei was once again impressed by the wisdom of His Highness Prince Jing.

It is indeed useful to open a school in the village. Before that, he thought it was unnecessary. Now it seems that people who have studied are different. Those guys have only stayed in the school for a long time, and they immediately become Be civilized and polite...

When his child is born and grows up, he will be sent to school to be well disciplined and disciplined by his husband.

Li Yi also heard about this from Wang Wei.

He felt a little regretful. After all, his men were all a bunch of reckless men. They would not hesitate to let them pick up knives to kill people, but they would not hesitate to let them hold pens to write but it seemed like they were going to kill them...

They were given a free opportunity to improve themselves and transcend themselves, but none of them cherished it. Ningyuan moved stones to build bridges and pave roads and was unwilling to enter the school again. This made it impossible to use other ideas that Lao Fang gave him...

For example, they were put in confinement for half a month, and food and water were provided every day, but there was no toilet in the confinement room. Anyway, they were used to solving problems on the spot...

Another example would be to erect a monument in front of the village, with their names and "heroic deeds" engraved on it for future generations to admire...

For example------Forget it, it's too disgusting, so I won't compare it.

…

No one is willing to study, even if they are suffocated outside, they are not willing to enter the school. Maybe they have realized that there is no limit to learning, and turning back is the end...

But this also exposed a major problem.

There is a serious lack of high-end talents under him.

If you look at Miss Liu Er in the past, you will know how much martial arts practitioners despise studying, not to mention those bandits. To put it bluntly, they are just a bunch of mobs. They rush up in a swarm and shout to kill. They can also build bridges and pave roads with some strength. , but when it comes to management, or charging into battle in a disciplined manner, it is too far behind.

This is not what Li Yi wants to see, nor is it what Miss Liu Er wants to see.

Miss Liu Er left half a month ago to occupy more hills. Before leaving, she left some people from the Liu League here to train those under Wang Wei.

If life was not so helpless, no one would want to be a bandit. Many people were ordinary people with families before they became bandits...

After being subdued, some of them earned a share of the family business through their own efforts and brought their families here. Today, this place is no different from an ordinary town.

Li Yi selected some people who had read books and tried to cultivate talents in other fields. Currently, they are focusing on industry, such as machinery, materials and other majors. Of course, they do not need to be exposed to advanced things. As long as they can understand some of the simple theories you talk about and put them into practice.

At this time, he missed Li Xuan a little. Almost all the real talents he needed were in the Academy of Sciences...

We still have to recruit some people from him...

"My lord, it's done!"

Wang Wei strode in from outside, holding a bunch of swords and other things in his hands, and threw them on the ground.

Li Yi stood up and walked to the front.

Wang Wei picked up two knives from the ground, held them in each hand, and said: "My lord, look, this one is an ordinary knife, and this one was just made by them..."

He waved both hands at the same time, and there was only a "clang" sound, and sparks flew everywhere. The knife in his right hand was intact, but there was an obvious chip on the one held in his left hand.

Clang!

He slashed twice again, and the knife held in his left hand was broken into two pieces, while the one in his right hand was still intact.

Lao Fang, who had just walked in from outside, stared at the knife in Wang Wei's hand, his eyes gleaming, and murmured: "Baby, baby..."

Wang Wei looked at him and said generously: "I like it. If you like it, I'll give it to you..."

He casually handed the knife to Lao Fang, but Lao Fang didn't take it. There was a trace of vigilance on his face and said: "What do you want to do? I can't afford to offend that tigress of yours. You didn't come with me yesterday either." Playing cards, you should find other reasons to fool her..."

"Ha, if you haven't gone back, you haven't gone back. What reason do you need? I'm not you. I'm even afraid of my wife..."

"Do you have the guts to say this again in front of her..."

"Why should I listen to you..."

…

Li Yi ignored these two guys who were unwilling to admit the facts, picked up two swords from the ground, and looked at them carefully.

After the smelting and forging methods were improved, the quality of steel has indeed improved a lot. Although it is still far from the level of blowing hair, breaking hair, and cutting iron like mud, compared with ordinary weapons, it can already be called a treasure.

Since it is a treasure, it can be sold for money, a lot of money.

He was already very rich, but with so many people under his command to eat, to invest in construction, and to support his prodigal sister-in-law Ruyi, the more money the better.

Ruyi Qiu Shui is a good sword. In terms of sharpness and tenacity, it is not comparable to the one in his hand.

But that sword must have been forged by highly skilled master craftsmen after thousands of tempers. Although it can be sold for an excellent price, the cost is not small.

Mass production is different. Technological reforms and cost reductions allow them to easily create magic weapons in the eyes of ordinary people.

This is not a magic weapon, it's all about money.

In Jingguo, the richest people are in Kyoto.

In Qiguo, the richest people are in the capital.

Li Yi pondered for a moment and felt that it was time for those foreign merchants from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland to come out.

No, no, no, I almost forgot that after the Liuli incident, whether in Qiguo or Jingguo, if those foreign merchants dared to show up, they would be caught and hacked to pieces at the first time.

This time, a different routine.

He sat back at the table and began to write a letter to Li Xuan.

...

Kyoto, Furong Garden.

Li Xuan held a dagger in his hand and easily cut a few gaps in the long sword of the opposite guard.

He nodded, with a satisfied look on his face. After so many gifts, the stingy guy finally knew how to return the favor. This dagger is pretty good, extremely sharp and tough. Even the treasures in the palace cannot compare with it. It can be called a magic weapon. It can be said that he is thoughtful...

But then, he realized a problem.

This dagger was forged by him, which means that he has mastered the new forging method and didn't tell me------I was so sincere to him, but he kept it to himself!

He showed indignation on his face. If it weren't for this magic weapon, he wouldn't have ordered to help him find the best blacksmith in Jingguo...

At a certain moment, the guard behind him bowed slightly: "Meetings, Princess."

Two women walked side by side from a distance. The younger one on the left looked at him and asked: "Royal brother, did the master write again?"

Li Xuan looked at Shouning, who had completely lost his youthfulness and immaturity, and smiled: "Not only letters, you come and see this..."

He showed the sharpness of the dagger in front of Mingzhu and Shouning again, and said in a boastful tone: "This dagger, although a little short, but in terms of sharpness, even the treasures collected in the palace cannot compare with it. It can be called a priceless magic weapon..."

After saying that, he seemed to remember something, pointed behind him, and said: "He also brought gifts for you, go and open them."

The two women walked over slowly and opened the two long brocade boxes on the table at the back.

After being stunned for a moment, they turned their heads at the same time and looked at the dagger in Li Xuan's hand.

Li Xuan was stunned when he saw this, and then smiled and said: "If you like this magic weapon, I will lend it to you for a few days, but remember to return it to me, I still need it for research..."

Shouning closed the brocade box without leaving a trace, shook his head, and said: "It's better not to use it..."

"You're welcome, next time I'll ask him to send you two..." Li Xuan walked over and asked with some doubts: "What did he send you?"

"Nothing..." Shouning shook her head, picked up the brocade box, and said: "Brother, there are still some things in the academy, I'm leaving first..."

The brocade box was too long, at least about four feet, and when she turned around, she accidentally knocked over another one.

The box fell to the ground, the lid opened, and the contents of the box appeared.

It was a long sword, more than three feet long, with a phoenix carved on the hilt, lifelike, and a complex pattern carved on the scabbard, which was extremely exquisite. There was also a row of more than ten gems inlaid on it, shining brightly under the sunlight...

Li Xuan was stunned, and lowered his head to pick up the sword.

He seemed to remember something, unsheathed the long sword, and gently waved it at the wooden table beside him.

Crack!

A flash of white light passed, and the wooden table split into two and fell to both sides.

He looked at the long sword in his hand, and then looked at the short dagger in the other hand...

One was more than three feet long, and the other was less than one foot long.

One sword had an exquisite scabbard inlaid with gems and was priceless, and the other one------had no scabbard, and was sent in a wooden box.

He suddenly felt a little sad...
