Zhang Feng had thought that this business was definitely related to cement.
He had thought of renovating the grounds of Chang 'an City and the imperial palace, but …
Luoyang's East Palace!
This was something completely unrelated. Lao Tzu didn't have the ability to split himself into two!
Li Shimin smiled and said, "Don't be surprised. This matter started with Lord Zhangsun. Last time, when Lord Zhangsun was on his way to the military camp, he happened to pass by the market at the foot of the mountain. Not only did he not complain, but he even praised the market. He even had a home on the cement ground."
"Yesterday, Lord Zhangsun came to find me and said something. This matter reached the emperor's ears, and the emperor decided to hand this matter over to me."
"So …"
Li Shimin was really perturbed by Xu Ke.
He had pondered over this matter for a long time and hadn't made a decision. After all, if Zhang Feng took over this matter, there was a high chance that his identity wouldn't be able to be kept secret.
By then, the matter of renovating Luoyang's East Palace would already be an urgent matter. If it weren't for this drought and the plague of locusts, they might have already started work. However, when Li Shimin saw Zhang Feng's strangely shaped but rather imposing and elegant house on the mountain.
He couldn't help but have a bold idea.
That was, he wanted Zhang Feng to use this technology on the construction of Luoyang's East Palace.
Zhang Feng also didn't expect that this pie in the sky would fall on his head. Although this was a matter for the emperor, and he might not even have to wait three years to be recognized by the emperor and directly enter the palace as an official, benefits and risks coexisted.
Such a big fat job, there were many people who saw it. If he stupidly took it at this time, wouldn't he be hated by others?
Would he be remembered by others?
Zhang Feng couldn't help but want to back out.
"Well, as you can see, this is a good thing. I know that you, Lao Li, want to help me, but as you can see, the Mid- Autumn Hunt will officially begin in seven days, and the poetry gathering is imminent. Luozhou is also a few days' journey from here. This …"
Zhang Feng's tactful refusal made Yu Shinan and the others sigh in relief.
They were really afraid that Zhang Feng would accept this job. If he did, then …
Wouldn't the identities of the emperor and the others be exposed?
Although this was nothing to them, if it really came to this point, would Zhang Feng still be here?
Wouldn't the academy be shelved?
This was the last thing they wanted to see.
Zhang Feng's answer made them heave a sigh of relief.
Even Li Shimin himself breathed a deep sigh of relief at this time. He smiled and said, "I knew you would say that. As long as you agree, you don't have to do it. You just have to make the cement …"
"Okay!"
Zhang Feng heard this and instantly understood. He stared at Li Shimin and said, "So you are thinking about our cement formula again?"
Li Shimin touched his nose and didn't speak.
This already meant a lot.
Although Zhang Feng was panting with anger, he gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it, we are brothers, but this cement thing has to be split 50-50. This can't be sloppy, your brother is going to die of poverty."
"Also, how long has it been since you paid me? There are so many properties, I am waiting for rice to cook on the mountain! "
Li Shimin spread his hands and said, "Then why did I hear from the old village chief that the cellar behind your house is filled with gold ingots?"
Zhang Feng's hair stood on end. He looked at Li Shimin warily and subconsciously looked at this guy.
Li Shimin saw this and couldn't help but laugh. .
"Brat, you're really stingy!"
"I won't tease you anymore. The money thing is definitely not going to be returned for the time being. When you open the door, I will send it to you. Think about it, how many people will come to see you open the door?"
"When the time comes, there will be dozens of carriages carrying gold ingots. How ostentatious will that be?"
Zhang Feng heard this and his eyes lit up.
"Lao Li, you are so thoughtful!"
"Alright, you don't have to discuss this with me. Go find Li Gan, I will leave this matter to him."
"Hahaha, that's good. I still have things to do at the foot of the mountain, so I won't bother you anymore."
As he spoke, Li Shimin gave a fist salute to everyone and then hurriedly left.
If not for these matters, Li Shimin would have returned to the palace last night. After all, Li Shimin had not attended court for a day and he felt a little uneasy. If he rushed back now, he would be able to read more memorials.
After Li Shimin left.
Zhang Feng explained the timetable and other matters clearly. Only then did he drag his dry throat and stagger out of the small bamboo house.
This was caused by smoking too much.
After Zhang Feng left.
Yu Shinan and the others looked at each other and said, "What did Lao Li mean just now? Could it be that he can't wait to reveal his identity?"
Sun Simiao stroked his beard and thought for a while, then nodded.
"You're right. After all, although we can't see clearly what's going on inside, I feel that something is brewing. Now that Feng Zi's surprise weapon has appeared, Second Master Li will definitely want to start a massacre. At this time, if Zhang Feng is around …"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be shocked.
Was the Emperor going to lay his cards on the table?
