"Dongzhu, they said that they want goods at a 20% discount. They can earn 20% more. They said that if there is such a good deal next time, we will look for them again."
Song De laughed as he spoke. Everyone went to scam people together. According to Dongzhu's words, this was called … … a group scam.
"It's all thanks to everyone's help." Li Yi was very satisfied with the merchants of Chang 'an.
"Owner, I'll take them to eat." Song De said and happily left, jumping up and down as he walked.
"Uncle, 210,000 yuan, you can buy a lot of things." Empress Wang was more concerned about the number.
"We have to bring back those who went out and compensate them. Although the compensation should be paid by the imperial court, the Ministry of Personnel … … cannot be offended."
Li Yi put the blame on the Ministry of Personnel. The county magistrate cooperated to spread the rumors, and the Ministry of Personnel had the responsibility to monitor the officials.
How could the Ministry of Personnel not notice something that happened right under their noses?
Of course, the Imperial Censorate should not think about it. Didn't you hear about it? What did you do?
Thinking was thinking, blaming was blaming. Li Yi knew that he could not find trouble with any department unless he just left school.
Later on, he understood that there were not so many reasons in the world. Countries were all like this.
Since that was the case, he had to compensate them himself. In the future, he still had to work in Lantian County, and he needed the support of the locals.
"Yes, we cannot offend them." Empress Wang agreed. She felt regretful.
If she knew that uncle's plan was so comprehensive, she would have told San Lang to act later. Let's see how unlucky those people are.
Now that they have caught them, it was not satisfying.
Li Longji did not regret acting too early. He was more interested in those ores. Lantian County had jade, and everyone thought that jade was good.
Brother Yi did not have the slightest interest in jade. Instead, he wanted stones.
"Brother Yi, what can different stones be used for?" Li Longji wanted to learn a lot of knowledge in one go.
"Organic stones can be used to fertilize the soil based on the pH. Different crops like different soil with different pH values.
Basalt can be used now. The hot spring soup is monopolized by the imperial family. Ordinary people, especially the imperial government, can't use it.
What about the people? For example, I, Zhuangzi, don't have one. If you drill down, you can drill out. After drilling for more than ten years, the Imperial Plantation above has one. It's shallow.
Even His Majesty doesn't know, so I won't tell him. Anyway, he doesn't lack places to bathe, right? "
When Li Yi mentioned the hot springs, he also mentioned the Imperial Plantation. There was a shallow one there, and it would take at most two months to get out.
"Yes, you're absolutely right." Empress Wang glanced at Li Longji.
"That's right, sister-in-law. I'm going to build steam in the bathtub in two days.
There was no need for electricity. The basalt stones were heated outside.
He took it in and poured water on it. Hua! Steam came out. It was more comfortable to be steamed inside.
I also plan to build a large bathing pool in Lantian County as a cover. I know that the royal family hasn't discovered the pool yet. "
Li Yi wanted to take a steam bath, and basalt was suitable.
"Okay, uncle. Hurry up and drill. Then San Lang and I will also take a bath." Empress Wang wanted to join in the fun.
"Yes." Li Longji agreed.
"Also, the stones can be used to bleach and increase the toughness of the paper. I've already made the movable type, and the ink can be used, but the paper can't.
My newspaper hasn't been published yet. The paper must not be smudged, and the handwriting must be clear. The ink must not be removed.
The ink is different from the ink we usually use. I can make wax paper and then use a stylus to write and brush the ink. It's a test of the basic skills of writing. If you make a mistake, you won't be able to correct it. "
Li Yi talked about the use of stones in paper. He wanted to make printing paper, but the cost was too high.
He could make wax paper for typing, but he couldn't find the materials to coat the stylus.
Wax paper was not suitable for mass printing of newspapers, but it was not a problem for a small range of exam papers.
There was a period of time when the teachers worked very hard. They didn't have ready-made exam papers, so they could only write it themselves and then print it for the students.
Some rural schools did not have much funding, so the teachers would look at the students' parents. At that time, they called for the government to work and asked the students to go home and ask their parents for it.
In the government, wax paper was worthless. They could take it as they wished, and the parents would bring it to school for their children.
So at that time, the children sang, "Whenever I gently walk by your window," and the parents agreed with it the most.
Li Yi recalled, and tears fell unconsciously.
"Brother Yi, are you thinking of something sad?" Li Longji asked with concern.
"No, I'm just thinking about when the people of the Tang dynasty will become rich."
Li Yi didn't blush at all when he lied. He didn't even need to write a draft.
Li Longji's eyes reddened. If someone else said this in front of him, he would splash a bowl of soup on that person's face.
When Li Yi said it, he admitted that Li Yi had brought out too much technology for the people.
Looking at the situation in Zhuangzi, the Zhang Family Village, the migrant workers, and the people of Chang 'an cutting ice, making firecrackers, kneading mud, and picking tea leaves.
And the reactions of the people on the way back from Luoyang when they heard that they had been deceived.
Brother Yi said to serve the people. Who would dare to disagree? How many medical books had he given away?
"Third Brother, I suddenly thought of two people who need to move around. They are both old officials. Investigating the place with the guilty officials is a plan. The old officials still have the strength of character. We can form a team to investigate and make up for the loopholes."
Li Yi thought of two people who were about to die. They were both prime ministers. He suggested to let the guilty officials deal with the other officials.
He also felt that there should be another team, those old men.
The old men would keep an eye on each other, and then they would become a special inspection team.
Having lived for such a long time, he was well aware of the problems of the local officials.
"Which two?" Li Longji became serious.
"Li Rizhi, Liu Youqiu, and Yao Chong helped His Majesty take down the old officials one by one in order to stabilize His Majesty's imperial power.
Yao Chong was right. He was indeed a capable official. However, those old officials were also very precious. There was no need to force them to death.
Let them form a team. In the team, they would keep each other in check. Let them investigate the officials at the same time.
In this way, His Majesty entrusted the country's affairs to them and gave them face. They would not complain, even if they knew that they were deprived of their rights.
When inspecting places, as long as there was corruption, they would still be able to leave a good reputation.
With their help, His Majesty would not have to worry about them being in power. After a few years, when Yao Chong is tired, he can also join! "
Li Yi came up with a new idea. Especially the last sentence, it was not peaceful at all. Instead, it was filled with killing intent.
Yao Chong was saving the prime minister. He took down the old officials one by one.
This way, Li Longji could do things more easily and not be forced by the old officials who took advantage of their seniority.
However, it was a pity that those people died. It was better to form a team and deal with them together. Give them a reputation, and they would be very willing.
When it was about time, Yao Chong should also join. Don't be the prime minister, because you, Yao Chong, are also an old official.
Li Longji was stunned. This was his Brother Yi? He was just as ruthless when he took action.
However, compared to Yao Chong, Brother Yi did not want to force the old officials to death.
Should he take down Yao Chong, Zhang Shuo, and Lu Huaishen now and turn Brother Yi into the Crape Myrtle Magistrate, Ping Zhang?
Empress Wang, who was eating with her head lowered, also looked up. Uncle is 17 years old this year?
