"Xiao Yi, stop. Don't talk anymore. My head hurts." When Li Yi was talking, Bi Goo rubbed his temples.
"Actually, there's no need. We have binoculars. The catapult is only a little far. When the hot air balloon rises, we can see it from the sky."
Li Yi put down his pen. It was a pity that no one liked to listen to him talk about mathematics.
He had almost forgotten it. He had to learn it all over again. It was very tiring.
"Xiao Yi, do you have any other things that can make a lot of money recently?"
Bi Goo quickly changed the topic. He realized that the little bit of mathematics he had learned was not enough to support him to understand Li Yi's words.
"No. Actually, I have something, but I can't sell it. I used the blowtorch principle to create a better air pressurized cylinder. It can be used as a flamethrower. Can this be sold?"
Li Yi said something to express his regret.
"No." Bi Goo shook his head. He once again felt that he had found the reason why Li Yi could not enter the Imperial Court.
Li Yi knew too much. He threw him into the position of Prime Minister to deal with matters and delayed Li Yi's time.
When they were eating, he talked about the monetary system. When he came back, he drew a parabola. Now, he was talking about the military.
Oh, in the middle, he also went to check the wards. Xiao Yi knew medicine, so he came to do the check himself.
"But I'm building a ship. It's a very fun ship. It can sail against the current. It doesn't need sails or oars."
Li Yi said the ship he had the workshop build.
"Pole?" Bi Goo said something.
"I'm also rowing." Li Yi rolled his eyes.
A pole was a pole. Different tools on a ship had different chants.
The sail was on top, the oars were on the side, and the pole touched the bottom of the water.
The oars were placed at the tail of the ship. They were used to move the ship forward.
The technical difficulty of using the oars was greater than the oars. A small boat with oars that could reach the shore with one oar was the beginner level of oars.
Generally, only places in Jiangnan used oars. Ordinary people would not even know the direction.
"Sell for a lot of money? Can you collect taxes? "Bi Goo stopped joking and asked seriously.
"It can't be sold for a lot of money. Others will know when they see it. If you're willing to collect taxes, wait for me, Zhuangzi, to make more. Let's see who will buy it. I'll give you the account book. "
Li Yi shrugged and said.
Then he said, "Old Bi, don't always think about money. Look at how happy you used to be. You automatically became Minister of Revenue. You've changed. "
"You, come and be the Minister of Revenue. This old man doesn't want to be the Minister of Revenue anymore," Bi Goo said gloomily.
"When I was the Minister of Revenue, I was still as carefree as I am now. Was the financial problem of the Tang dynasty a problem?
To be honest, your little bit of work in the Ministry of Revenue is far inferior to my Zhuangzi's financial affairs.
Old Bi, your Ministry of Revenue is now in a passive position. The idea I gave you to build roads and houses for the common people is an active one.
My Zhuangzi has always been an active one. The exchange coupons were printed by the Li Family Zhuangzi. They're updating the technology so that others can't copy them. "
Li Yi smiled and said to Bi Goo. He poured water for himself and put a cup in front of Bi Goo. He put away the thermos bottle. Bi Goo couldn't drink water.
Bi Goo looked at the empty porcelain bowl in front of him. "You replaced the porcelain core with the hand-grinder. Is it broken? The Ministry of Revenue can still sell noodles. "
"Of course it can. Instant noodles are not suitable for ordinary people to eat. It's expensive.
Even if it's a little more expensive, the common people will calculate.
If they can't eat and wear, they'll be poor if they can't calculate. "
After Li Yi finished speaking, he tested the temperature of the water and drank it in one gulp. He couldn't drink water slowly in front of the old man. It was impolite. The old man couldn't drink water.
"Xiao Yi, the people in the Ministry of Revenue are not stable. There's too much money. When I think of the 1.8 million yuan in taxes a month, I feel like I'm floating."
Bi Goo asked for advice again. He had lived to this age and could put down his face. If he didn't understand, he could ask.
Asking others was shameless. Asking Li Yi, there was no such word. Li Yi wasn't just a secondary second-rank official. He was also the Emperor's think tank, Brother Yi.
When the Prime Ministers of the Political Affairs Hall said "My Brother Yi" in front of them, the Prime Ministers didn't refute. This was enough to prove Li Yi's ability and status.
"Is the Ministry of Revenue usually very busy?" Li Yi looked at the empty cup in front of him and asked.
"It's busy this year. Busy collecting taxes." Bi Goo put the cup to the side. Looking at it made him want to drink tea.
"Bring them to the Zhang Family Village to play for a few days. Leave a few people who are willing to work there." Li Yi gave an idea.
"A few days?" Bi Goo caught the key word.
"Yes, just them. Five days in the Zhang Family Village." Li Yi nodded.
"Okay." Bi Goo didn't ask for the reason. Since the Ministry of Revenue's people were unstable, it was right to listen to Xiao Yi. Xiao Yi never cheated her own people in this regard.
At night, Bi Goo had fasted for enough time. Li Yi began a full examination.
At precisely the time of the evening, all the results were out.
"Old Bi, you don't have any major problems. You have a bunch of small problems, but you won't die.
The main problem is that you don't sleep well. Find an imperial physician who can massage you. A doctor is also fine.
Before you go to bed at night, let him massage you. You'll fall asleep after a while.
I'll make an eye mask for you. Stuff two balls of gum in your ears. Without the light and sound, you'll be able to sleep better. "
Li Yi didn't give Bi Goo a receipt. He didn't even open one. Where could he print it? Did he have to leave the film for Bi Goo alone?
"I won't die?" Bi Goo felt that the sky was clear, the kind that was bright and sunny, even if it was pitch-black outside now.
"No, but this year, as long as you feel uncomfortable, such as a runny nose or a stomachache, hurry up and come to Zhuangzi.
From the current examination results, if you have any physical symptoms in the future, come to Zhuangzi in time. I guarantee that you won't die.
Don't think that one examination will be enough. In summer, you might have a fever or a cold or contracted some disease. "
Li Yi compared the current situation. He didn't believe that Bi Goo was sick and he couldn't save him.
According to the information, Bi Goo didn't die immediately when he fell sick. There was a process.
Li Longji changed him to another department and even personally wrote the prescription, but he still died.
There was a process, so it couldn't be a sudden cardiovascular disease.
It also couldn't be a rabid dog that was bitten by a dog or scratched by a cat.
If that was the case, the information should have written that he pretended to be crazy and was afraid of water at the last moment.
"Hurry up, hotpot. You ate it for lunch. I can't go home today." Bi Goo wanted to eat hotpot. He was greedy.
"You can go back, Old Bi. The city gate is not closed at night now. From the 15th day of the first lunar month onwards, it will always be open for everyone to come and go."
Li Yi reminded Bi Goo that times had changed. There was no curfew, and people could enter and leave Chang 'an City at any time.
"Hotpot, double hotpot." Bi Goo didn't listen to anything about whether he could enter the city or not.
"Okay. Old Bi, are you leaving after lunch? If not, I'll arrange a courtyard for you. If you leave, I'll arrange a motorcade. Do you want to go home and tell your followers? "
"I'm not leaving. I'll drink with you. You go check the rooms again. Don't delay the treatment."
Bi Goo felt that it wasn't easy to be allowed to come by His Majesty. He had to seize the time to ask some questions in his heart.
Therefore, it was still the double hotpot in the evening. Li Yi warmed up 500 grams of 15% rice wine.
Although it was only 15% rice wine, it was quite strong. Ordinary grape wine only had a few degrees. One would feel dizzy after drinking half a bottle.
"Old Bi, list the questions you want to ask. I'll take a look. Then, I'll tell you while we eat."
Li Yi knew Bi Goo's purpose. It was just to ask questions. He was used to it.
