Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 40: The prince comes to visit

Views:

Li Zexuan was very happy after receiving 2,000 yuan of entrepreneurial capital assistance from his father. Don't underestimate these two thousand coins. According to the current purchasing power, it is almost equivalent to hundreds of thousands of dollars in future generations.

Li Zexuan needs to carefully plan what kind of things he can sell in his new store in the future.

First, he needs to form a "technical team". As the scale of his store expands in the future, he will need to manufacture more and more new things. Of course, he cannot do everything himself. In some aspects, he is just a theoretical party, but in practice he is not as good as the current craftsmen.

Never underestimate the wisdom of the ancients. All they lacked was proper guidance. They were no stupider than modern people. Especially before the Ming and Qing Dynasties, when the thoughts of the ancients were not imprisoned, a large number of creative wise men emerged in the land of China.

Li Zexuan has insights that are more than a thousand years ahead of his time. Coupled with the skilled workers of the Tang Dynasty, he believes that he can bring many new things to the Tang Dynasty. Now that we have come to this prosperous age, why not leave a mark in history

Li Zexuan wants to make Datang, which is already at the top of the world, even more ahead of the world!

Thinking about it, Li Zexuan felt a little excited. In the past, when reading history books and watching the prosperous Tang Dynasty, he could only be a bystander, but now he has become a participant in the construction of this prosperous age.

But where can I find suitable craftsmen

First of all, the craftsman must have good character, be honest and not cunning. Li Zexuan does not want the new era craftsman he has worked so hard to cultivate to betray him in the end. Of course, the higher the skills of the craftsmen, the easier it will be, but where can I find craftsmen who can satisfy these two points at the same time

Li Zexuan has only been in Tang Dynasty for more than half a month, and his social circle is not very large. It seems that he has to trouble his father to find craftsmen. In his memory, his father can travel all over the country and do business for decades, clothing. It is involved in various industries such as food, catering, cosmetics, etc. Dad will definitely be able to find a satisfactory craftsman for him.

Li Zexuan, who had made up his mind, was about to go to his father to ask for someone, when he saw Xiao He trotting over with her skirt in hand and said: "Master, Li Gaoming, who followed us last time to eavesdrop on "Journey to the West", is here and is in the front hall. Serve tea!”

The previous time I had dinner with Li Chengqian at Zuixian Tower, neither Xiao He nor Xiao Xi went there, so Xiao He didn't know that Li Gaoming was the prince. Now, in the little girl's impression, Li Gaoming was still a thief who eavesdropped on the story!

Li Zexuan was stunned. Now that he knew that Li Gaoming was Li Chengqian, he naturally didn't wonder why he could find his own place. He was just curious, why did the prince come here

Lan'er asked at this time: "Sister Xiaohe, didn't sister Lizhi come with him?"

Xiao He shook his head and said, "No."

Li Zexuan nodded and smiled at Xiao He: "Xiao He, don't be rude when you see Li Gaoming in the future. He is actually our Tang Dynasty Crown Prince Li Chengqian!"

"Ah!" Xiao He opened his mouth wide in shock, his mind couldn't turn around for a moment, and he froze on the spot.

Li Zexuan no longer paid attention to the stunned Xiao He, and pulled Lan'er towards the front hall with some humor.

Li Chengqian was drinking tea in the front hall when he heard footsteps getting closer and closer to him. He put down his teacup and looked out the door.

After Li Zexuan entered the door, he bent slightly, cupped his hands and saluted: "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince!"

He decided not to hide it anymore and made it clear. He was not good at plotting. In his previous life, his head hurt when he saw his girlfriend watching a palace drama. He was really not the type to engage in intrigue. Therefore, he simply made his words clear today and saw how Li Chengqian reacted, and then he decided whether this friend was worth keeping.

Li Chengqian was obviously stunned for a moment, and after a moment's thought, he understood what was going on. He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It seems that Brother Chou Niu has told you, why, Brother Zexuan is not willing to make friends with Gao Ming after he knows my identity." Is this a friend?"

After saying that, a trace of loneliness flashed across his face. He was just a child who grew up in a deep palace compound. He was bullied by his uncle's children when he was a child. At that time, his father was hiding his power and biding his time. No one supported him, and he didn't have a single friend.

After his father killed his uncle, imprisoned his grandfather, and became the emperor, his father killed all his friends who had bullied him and those who had not bullied him. At that time, there was no pleasure in revenge in his heart, only loneliness.

He didn't think about killing them, he just thought he could beat them up to vent his anger.

After he became the prince, he felt even more lonely. He must always maintain a calm smile. Those young people of his own age in Chang'an City either deliberately keep a distance from him, just like Cheng Chumo, or they deliberately get close to him and want to use their identity to achieve certain benefits.

Only in the dead of night would Li Chengqian look at the high palace wall alone and imagine how wonderful the world outside was.

Not long ago, he went out of the palace with his sister Changle, met such an interesting person as Li Zexuan, heard the interesting story, and ate the interesting food. In his heart, Li Chengqian was very envious of Li Zexuan's free and real life, and he really wanted to make friends with him. a friend.

I didn't expect Cheng Chumo to tell Li Zexuan his true identity so early. I'm afraid Cheng Chumo also warned Li Zexuan to keep a distance from him! Thinking of this, Li Chengqian's eyes flashed with disappointment. Sure enough, he was destined to be a loner in the emperor's family.

Li Zexuan had been carefully observing Li Chengqian's expression before. Seeing that his words were sincere and the loneliness and loss in his expression did not seem to be fake, he breathed a sigh of relief and secretly thought that Li Chengqian was not a bad person at the moment. Under the influence, he would not go down the road of no return in the future, so he smiled at Li Chengqian and said:

"I, Li Zexuan, always make friends based on people, regardless of status. But if someone discusses status with me, then I will discuss distance with them!"

Li Chengqian thought for a while and understood the meaning of Li Zexuan's words, and said happily: "That's great, I have exactly what I mean!"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Li Chengqian added: "Now that you already know my younger brother's identity, I won't call you a loner anymore. I'll call you a brother to avoid being alienated."

Li Zexuan did not answer his words, but smiled and asked, "Why is Gao Ming here today?"

Now that his identity has been made clear, Li Chengqian doesn't need to deliberately conceal anything when he speaks, and said: "Sister Changle recently learned palace etiquette in the palace. She felt bored, so she asked me to come to your place to listen to the story twice, and then went back to tell it to her. I don't know. Brother Zexuan, are you willing?"

In fact, Li Chengqian had always wanted to hear it before, but as a prince, he could not leave the palace frequently. This time, he made such an excuse and only left the palace with his mother's permission.

Li Zexuan understood the purpose of his visit and couldn't help but cursed. This prince really took it easy and came out of the palace to listen to stories. Hey!
