Chapter 245 Who Is More Stupid in Fair Trade?
Zhu Xiejinshan took a deep breath, as if he was shocked by the sound.
When faced with Li Yi's question, he didn't seem to hear it.
His eyes were still focused on the bombed area in front of him, recalling how many places in the Tang Dynasty would set off fireworks on New Year's Eve.
There are so many fireworks used for fun, once they are used in the military, how many things will be produced that just fly out?
"Look again, another car is pushing over." Li Yi said as if I know you didn't see clearly.
A second car came, this time with forty flying monkeys.
At the same time, a large group of people with ten surnames from the Western Turks came over. They heard the noise just now.
A gust of wind blew, and the faint smell of burning sulfur floated into everyone's noses.
Later people found out that they were setting off fireworks, which were not as good to watch in broad daylight as at night.
Just when they were losing interest, Li Yi lit the long fuse again.
Immediately, the Flying Monkey flew out with a swish of movement, exploding in front and continuing to fly behind.
The sound of booming and booming continued, and the smoke from the explosion was floating.
When everything calmed down, the people who came after him stood there swallowing saliva like Zhu Xie Jinshan just now.
They completely understood, where are the fireworks? Fireworks exploded in the sky, this one on the ground.
It looked like a large area was covered. Not to mention what it could do to people, the horses couldn't bear it.
It's obviously something you're looking at for fun, but who would think it would come out and fly to the ground?
"Dr. Li, do you still have these fireworks? I'll buy them." Someone shouted loudly and rubbed his ears.
"We don't have any fireworks, do you want fireworks? Just listen to the noise, and the price of fireworks is low. If you buy 10,000 fireworks, it will cost you 8,000." Li Yi said with a smile.
Everyone shook their heads and had fun throwing cannons, but how could they compare to something that flew far away and exploded with a loud bang?
"The fireworks are here today. Everyone, please go back. The leader of Jinshan invites you." Li Yi invited Zhu Xie to Jinshan.
"Don't worry, Dongzhu Li, the Shatuo clan will definitely have long-term friendship with the Tang Dynasty." Zhu Xiejinshan assured.
He finally believed what Li Yi said before. He didn't want to kill him, but he couldn't kill him unless he was right.
"I think so too." Li Yi showed off his methods, still as gentle as ever.
When everyone went back to discuss the barter with Song De, their attitude became more and more respectful.
Those are not fireworks, but sharp weapons that kill people. How many are hidden on Zhuangzi?
Some of the Qianniu Guards guarding Zhuangzi ran away on horseback, my God! Dr. Li has begun to enter the ordnance industry. He is no longer farming. Please report quickly!
"Do you want to change the toilet water? Do you want soap?"
"It's windy there, so applying glycerin is best."
"Do you know about big neck disease? If you eat dried oysters and dried sea cabbage, those with big necks cannot eat them, and those without big necks will not grow their necks after eating them."
"You want seeds? Let me give you some cotton seeds. Take them back and plant them. We will harvest the cotton later. The price is high."
"Want colored silk? Put on the colored silk. I'll give you ordinary silk. You can change it yourself."
"Iron? No, the village is still short of iron."
"Lighter? You also know about lighters? What if you use them without alcohol and flint? Okay, I'll sell them to you and tell me what I'll exchange for them."
Song De took a pen and wrote down the exchanges with the Western Turks.
Western Turks mainly use sheepskin, felt, raisins, fennel, walnuts, dried dates, dried plums, dried mushrooms, dried mutton, beef, and horse meat in exchange.
Song De's price is very 'fair'. Just lower the price a little bit for whatever it is sold outside.
If people buy more, they will naturally get discounts.
At the same time, some fermented bean curd, stinky tofu, and distilled wine are also given away.
The people from the Ten Surnames tribe had inquired about the prices of some things before they came. Today, they saw that they had taken advantage of them.
On the surface, he still wants to bargain, but in his heart, he feels that Zhuangzi is cute and stupid.
Then a large number of things they brought to Chang'an were sent to tell them to be shipped over.
While waiting for the handover, they refused to leave and ran to take a shower.
I had already washed it once during the Chinese New Year, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to participate in the imperial gathering.
Four pools were chosen for them to use, and they kept asking for soap, saying they wanted to wash their hair well.
***
Li Longji and his ministers still guarded Lu Huaishen's home to watch the excitement.
Queen Wang was resting in the car, while Li Longji and others stood beside the car.
The people from the Haokuai Craftsmen Alliance dug trenches, laid a foundation, and raised a second floor. However, the foundation was designed to build a three-story building.
Just in case there is a need in the future, add another layer on top.
Someone was mixing cement nearby, and bamboos were used as tendons.
The three prime ministers and Pei Yaoqing had sad faces. They were thinking about what jobs they could find for the people now.
What Pei Yaoqing wants is not what he used to do. People don't have much work in winter. Those who stay at home and need to make clothes naturally make clothes.
There are also spinning and weaving.
Either they wash clothes for rich families, or they dye fabrics and make clothes in the workshop.
The land outside cannot be planted or firewood cannot be harvested.
Now we also grow bean sprouts, which is a good business, but the bean sprouts don’t need to be busy all day long.
There are more raw bean sprouts, and the price of bean sprouts has begun to decline.
"There is no other job at all. It would be great to have ice sculptures in winter." Zhang said he couldn't think of anything.
"There are enough people shaking briquettes, and there are people transporting coal, so we can't all dig coal." Yao Chong also complained.
Lu Huaishen remained silent. All he thought about was when he would be able to live back.
The courtyard of the rented inn is close to the 'unit', but it is not as safe as my own home.
Pei Yaoqing rubbed his temples and breathed a sigh of relief: "Your Majesty, I thought it was useless to look for Dongzhu Li. If those generations have work to do at this time, how can they not do it?"
"There will be a court meeting tomorrow. When the court meeting is over, the ministers will take care of political affairs." Li Longji himself thought hard as well, and the result was the same.
So he planned to go to Li Yi's place after the meeting tomorrow.
The men from Qianniuwei came over and dismounted from a distance. One person handed the reins to others and stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, Li Yizhuangzi made the Flying Monkey several times bigger, pointed it diagonally toward the sky, lit it, and fired it in a series. It only sounded when it almost landed or landed.
Zhu Xiejinshan led ten surnames from the Western Turks to Zhuangzi to exchange things. Dongzhu Li seemed to be trying to frighten them and others.
A flying monkey fell down in a certain place, making a huge sound that shocked everyone who went there. "
The people who came over reported the situation and told Li Longji that the things Li Yi got there could be used to bomb people.
"Okay, okay, our Tang Dynasty has another sharp weapon." Li Longji was very happy.
"Your Majesty, these firearms are too dangerous to be handed over..."
Yao Chong, who was listening at the side, was afraid that Li Yi would look at anyone he didn't like...
"Who do you want to hand it over to? Li Yi will do some research and give it to someone else to take care of. He will then research it and hand it over.
Why don't you take your salary and give it to me, and then take it and give it to me again.
If the imperial army needs it, it can place an order with Zhuangzi, and Zhuangzi will make it and equip the army.
I talked to him and asked him to maintain a 5% profit. Brother Yi is still very supportive of things that benefit the country. "
Li Longji did not intend to leave the matter of making explosive fireworks to others. It would be dangerous to leave it in the hands of others.
"Isn't half a profit a lot?" Yao Chong knew that in the future he would really equip the army, and the amount would be huge.
"How much did it cost to throw cannons in your previous workshop?" Li Longji didn't give any face.
Li Yi's cost is one penny, and five percent is fifty cents.
Leave it to others and provide the capital. The cost will be divided, and the court will spend more money.
"Alas!" Yao Chong could only sigh.
