The First Family of Tang Dynasty

Cheng Chubi looked at Li Yifu's serious face and couldn't help but let out a surprised voice.

"Oh, I didn't expect this old Xu, who is over 500 years old, to be quite fast, and he actually booked again."

"Yeah, the lower official didn't expect that the now-bearded Xu Xiancheng is busy.

How could he still find time to talk about marriage in such a busy season. "Fang Caike'er has already explained that the price of such a set of iron stoves is only four hundred and fifty cents.

But it can burn this kind of peat with great taste and smoke.

Moreover, the heating effect is really impressive.

Li Shimin picked up the tongs on the side and picked up a piece of bituminous coal with a glossy surface.

"This peat, I have countless numbers in the Tang Dynasty, and it is considered to be extremely high quality and low price."

"But there is a lack of suitable stoves, nephew Chubi, I don't even know how to praise you..."

Hearing this, seeing Li Shimin's approving look, Cheng Chubi smiled shyly and stepped forward.

"If uncle thinks that this thing can really benefit the country and the people, then little nephew will be relieved."

Seeing Cheng Chubi's appearance, Li Shimin almost burst out laughing, not knowing what this kid was thinking.

Ha ha, stroking his long beard.

"Well, don't worry, what kind of person is this old man, but anyone who has made meritorious service for the court will certainly not be treated badly."

"Don't worry, the old man will think about it carefully, and when you come back, someone will give you the reward that should be given to you."

"My little nephew, thank you for your uncle's favor." Cheng Chubi couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed to His Majesty the wise and martial emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

I can't help but feel a little more favorable towards the understanding Uncle Li in front of me, and I can't think about his tomb jumping for the time being.

Over there, Li Jigan fell on his knees and sat down beside the iron stove, flexing his neck happily.

"Your Majesty, I have to say that burning peat charcoal is indeed more comfortable than that charcoal stove.

With such a big iron stove, the whole house feels a lot warmer, and it really has a feeling of warmth like spring. "

Ashnadur nodded in agreement, wiped the hot sweat from his forehead, and shook his head again and again in disbelief.

"Indeed, especially on the grasslands, the Turks are the most difficult in winter.

If there is such a stove, the day will be much more beautiful. Cheng Saburo is really amazing..."

After hearing their compliments, Cheng Chubi said a few words of modesty.

Reaching out into his arms, he handed the prepared instructions for making the iron stove, including the drawings, into Li Shimin's hands.

Ask someone to fetch some refreshments, while sipping the chrysanthemum and wolfberry tea that clears the liver and improves eyesight.

Li Shimin carefully looked over the instructions and drawings that Cheng Chubi handed over.

Then he turned around and handed it over to Zhao Kun, who was behind him, and asked him to send someone to the Ministry of Works to purchase a batch of iron furnaces and transport them into the palace.

After doing all this, Li Shimin sighed with emotion.

"This stove is really a good thing. As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the charcoal and bamboo charcoal consumed in the palace every winter is an astonishing amount."

"If it can be replaced with peat, it will not only warm, but also save the cost of the palace."

Li Ji quickly put down the tea bowl in his hand and bowed respectfully to Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty does not look to the world at all times, you are really a wise man."

Li Ji had already paid their respects, so Cheng Chubi and others naturally did not dare to neglect, and they bowed down one after another, paying respectful tribute to the king who wanted to create a prosperous Tang Dynasty.

"Okay, everyone, get up, what is this..."

Although Li Shimin looked satisfied, he waved his hand humbly.

"Although I am the Son of Heaven, I hope that the Tang Dynasty can be in long-term peace, but... around the Tang Dynasty.

There will always be many people with ulterior motives. Seeing that the Tang Dynasty is prosperous and prosperous, and greedy for my wealth in the Central Plains, they always want to take a bite. "

"Just like that Gaochang, it's just a small country. I treat him very well, but he avenges his kindness and revenge, swept across the border town, and destroyed my crops."

"I have decided to scold him. If he dares to do it again, then I will make him end up like Tuyuhun."

Li Ji stroked his long beard and nodded in agreement.

"Your Majesty's words are reasonable, but Gaochang is farther away than Tuyuhun, and it goes deep into the Western Regions. If you want to take it, you must first plan carefully."

Cheng Chubi also reacted immediately. It seems that Gaochang Kingdom should have been in the Zhenguan period, because it repeatedly jumped coquettishly between the Tang Dynasty and the Western Turks.

In the end, he angered Li Shimin, the hero of the Great Tang Dynasty, and finally ordered the master Wu Benzhi to kill him.

Seeing that Li Shimin was so angry that he was about to burst into smoke, he must have been unable to hold back and wanted to do it.

Just as Cheng Chubi was thinking about it, he happened to hear that Li Ji was discussing the issue of military supplies with Uncle Li.

Because if you want to go to Gaochang, you have to go deep into the Western Regions, and you have to guard against the countries in the Western Regions, even the Turks. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

Therefore, under such circumstances, the soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty would be in danger.

In this way, the supply of military supplies will be prone to problems...

"Then let the soldiers carry more rations."

As a paramilitary enthusiast and a disciple of all generals, Cheng Chubi couldn't help but interrupted when he heard such a thing.

"Bring more rations? You said it lightly." Li Ji couldn't help but glared at Cheng Chubi.

"Generally, soldiers can only carry rations for ten days at most. No matter how much more, how can they still have the energy to carry armor and armor?"

Hearing the word "dry food", Cheng Chubi couldn't help but become curious.

"Uncle, what are the rations this soldier eats?"

"Two liters of millet a day, and some pickles."

"raw?"

Li Ji was immediately happy.

"Nonsense, it's not raw, do we still cook it in advance, I'm afraid that within two days, the rations of the soldiers will all be spoiled."

Li Shimin looked at the thoughtful Cheng Chubi, then glanced at Li Ji again, and then asked Cheng Chubi with a smile.

"What's the matter, nephew, why are you suddenly interested in the rations of the soldiers?"

Cheng Chubi scratched his head and said. "Uncle, don't you think the rations of our Tang soldiers will be too monotonous?"

"And it's not just a monotonous problem. About three catties of millet can meet the needs of the soldiers for a day."

"If it is said, it is possible to develop a military ration that is both light and can fully meet the dietary needs of soldiers."

"Let the soldiers and soldiers only carry ten days of food, become twenty days, or even a month's food..."

"Cheng Saburo, what nonsense are you talking about?" Li Ji couldn't help but puff up his eyes.

"Did you know that if the soldiers could not eat two liters of rice a day, they would be hungry, hungry
