Li Zexuan would not be able to help with this. The next step was for Li Xiaogong to select suitable officials to fill up this newly established department. Although he knew most of the big shots in the imperial court, it was useless if he was not familiar with them. As the saying goes, you may know a person for a long time without understanding his true nature. This kind of thing had to be left to Li Xiaogong, the "old fox" in the imperial court. He still had a lot of things to do!
On the FIFA side, Ma Zhou was also very efficient. Now, the team of the FIFA headquarters had been set up. More than 30 young scholars had just joined and were learning the "Football Management Regulations" written by Li Zexuan under Ma Zhou's organization. They would be assessed in a week.
Li Zexuan planned to wait until this group of people had finished their training before selecting some of them to set up local FIFA branches. The Great Tang had ten Daos, and he was only planning to set up a FIFA branch in each one, not every province. After all, the Great Tang had more than three hundred provinces. How could he find so many people?
In addition, because of Li Zexuan's wonderful engineering enlightenment class, Yanhuang College had become famous. Every weekend, students from other places would come to visit. Li Zexuan did not refuse any of them.
The two places that most students visited were Guanghua Building and the sports field.
There was a huge globe downstairs in Guanghua Building. On it, the location of each province and county of the Tang Empire was marked in detail. The other countries were not marked in detail, but from this globe, it could be seen that the Tang Empire's territory was very small compared to the whole world.
This surprised many people. Before Li Zexuan, everyone thought that the Tang Empire was the center of the world. But … the reality was not like that!
Of course, there were people who doubted the authenticity of the globe. But when there were doubts, there would be Yanhuang College students next to them who would take out the college's "Geography" textbook and debate with them. After a period of time, many people accepted Li Zexuan's Earth theory!
The Sports Department of the Academy already had a batch of soccer balls for the Academy students to rent for free. Therefore, there were several soccer teams formed by the students in the Academy. However, there was only one field, and Li Tai and the other rich second generations could not occupy it every day. In the end, the soccer teams discussed with each other and decided that they could use whatever field they wanted on weekdays, but on weekends, they had to take turns.
Therefore, there were football matches on the sports field every weekend. Most of the students who came to visit Yanhuang College liked to come here to watch the fun. Correspondingly, more and more people began to feel the charm of football.
Most of these people wanted to buy a football when they went back, but when they saw the high price and the long line outside the Strange Interest Pavilion every day, they dismissed the idea.
Since I can't afford it, I'll rent it! Although it cost 100 copper coins to rent a soccer ball for a day, it was still acceptable for several people to share the cost of a dozen copper coins.
Therefore, the football rental business of the Football Association became popular. The more than 300 soccer balls in the warehouse could be rented out every day, and they could earn dozens of copper coins in a day! Although this was a small amount of money to Li Zexuan, this small amount of money was more than the monthly profit of some restaurants and shops. It really made many people envious!
"Phew! The matters of the Academy, the Department of Municipal Imports, and the Football Association have finally come to an end. I can finally do my own things! "
Li Zexuan sighed and sighed as he walked on the path of Yunshan.
During this period, he was very busy for Yanhuang College, the Department of Municipal Imports, and the Football Association of Tang Empire. Now that these three departments were on the right track, he could free up his hands to do some interesting things!
For example, supplying electricity to the Yunshan Villa!
This was something he had wanted to do for a long time. He was tired of the dim candlelight. He wanted to bring light to the dark night of the world. Ahem, he digressed. He just wanted to use a light bulb in his house. It was such a simple request, but there were many difficulties in it!
However, Li Zexuan was not afraid of difficulties. After all, now that he had rubber, he could use rubber-coated copper wire as an electric wire. It was more stable than the previous enameled wire. In this way, the medium and long distance power transmission was guaranteed!
Moreover, there was a small waterfall at the top of the west side of Yunshan Mountain. When the time came, he could put a hydroelectric generator under the waterfall and connect a wire back. Then, he could find a way to make a light bulb. Wouldn't he be able to achieve electric lighting?
Although he did not have the metal tungsten needed to make the filament of the electric lamp, who said that only tungsten could be used to make the filament? Other conductive materials could be used to make it, but the lifespan was shorter!
Li Zexuan couldn't help but feel excited at the thought of having the opportunity to use the electric lamp in Tang Empire. When this guy returned home, he went straight to his study and ignored the outside world. He was only focused on electricity research!
…
"Your Majesty, bad news, bad news!"
Night fell, Ganlu Palace.
A young eunuch suddenly ran in in a panic, and said as he ran.
Zhao Song, who was standing not far away from Li Er, glared at the young eunuch. He thought to himself that this guy really didn't know how to speak. What did he mean by "Your Majesty, bad news"? Wasn't he cursing Li Er?
"Hmm? Why are you in such a panic? Tell me quickly! "
Li Er didn't think much of it. He only frowned slightly and asked.
The young eunuch hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, His Highness King of Wei, His Highness King of Wei is seriously ill and can't get up!"
"What? Qing Que is ill? "
Li Er stared and suddenly stood up. He shouted at the young eunuch, "Why is Qing Que ill? Wasn't he fine in the morning? Why is he suddenly so ill and can't get up? Imperial physician? Where's the imperial physician? Why aren't you calling for the imperial physician? "
The young eunuch said with a sobbing tone, "Your Majesty, we have already called for the imperial physician, but the imperial physician said … the imperial physician said …"
"Clang!"
At this moment, the sound of a porcelain plate falling to the ground came from the entrance of the palace. Li Er, who was upset, thought that some servant had accidentally broken the flower pot or something. He wanted to reprimand, but when he looked up, he was stunned and swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Li Er quickly walked down and greeted the person at the entrance of the palace. He said, "Maid Guanyin …"
"What's wrong with Qing Que? Tell me what's wrong with Qing Que. "
The person who came was Empress Zhangsun. Seeing that it was already late at night, she wanted to send some refreshments to Li Er, but who would have thought that just as she arrived, she would hear such shocking news. Her entire face instantly turned ghastly pale!
At this moment, she couldn't care about being rude. As if she didn't see Li Er, she rushed to the young eunuch and asked with a hoarse voice!
Yes, hoarse! As a mother, there was no news more shocking than this!
