Chapter 176 Who Did Dogs Meow Meowingly From?(1/4)
Chapter 176: Who did you learn from?
Li Gen had no idea that they had just left Chang'an City, and it took only half a day.
Crown Prince Li Chengqian led a large army to the expedition.
Li Gen walked all the way northwest.
Li Chengqian walked all the way to the northeast.
Half a month later, Li Shimin stepped into the Xiande Hall with great enthusiasm.
"Zhongqing, the cement factory, cotton spinning factory, and soap factory in Chang'an City all started production yesterday..."
Li Shimin's words made all the civil and military officials confused.
Your Majesty is hysterical, right?
What daydreams in broad daylight?
Li Shimin saw the doubts of his ministers, so he smiled and said.
"This time I and the Queen went to the Western Regions and specially brought a hundred craftsmen to Luntai City."
"In the future, there will be factories in Luntai City, and we will also have them in Chang'an City."
"There is another thing. When I and the queen led the King of Qin back to Chang'an City, they had already been built into Tianmen Pass. It is expected to be built into Chang'an City by the end of the year..."
Li Shimin finished speaking, and the ministers bowed and bowed to congratulate him.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!"
"All the officials, follow me to visit each factory. Today I will let you see what cement is called..."
"Within one year, I will let all official roads be paved with cement roads within a hundred miles of Chang'an City, and within three years, it will be paved with Luoyang..."
"In the future, all the roads in the Tang Dynasty will be as smooth as jade, flat and tidy, and you will no longer have to worry about the mudiness caused by rain and snow..."
Li Shimin made a bold statement and led his ministers to the carriage and headed straight for the east of the city.
The cement factory is about ten miles northeast of the city.
The arrival of Li Shimin and civil and military officials put a lot of pressure on the Minister of Works, who was stationed in the cement factory.
Since these craftsmen were brought back to Chang'an City by His Majesty, Yuan Lei, the Minister of Works, has been stationed in the cement factory day and night.
The real mass production finally began yesterday, and today His Majesty led all civil and military officials to come here in person.
"Mr. Yuan, come over some cement and show it to me and all the ministers."
"I, please follow your majesty's oral order!"
Yuan Lei immediately walked out of the factory quickly and when he came back.
Two craftsmen followed behind him, and the craftsmen worked together to carry a bag of unsealed cement.
Under the gaze of Li Shimin and civil and military officials.
Two craftsmen began to operate the method of using cement.
After mixing sand and mixing water, the originally gray dust began to change color.
There happened to be a small pit in front of me.
The two craftsmen began to hold wooden tools and quickly smoothed the pit.
The surface is as smooth as jade, but the color is indeed black.
"Your Majesty, after it is solid, the road surface will be strong and the color will turn blue-gray."
"I, of course, know that my Luntai City is now full of cement pavement."
"My dear, be sure to produce cement as soon as possible. There is not even a cement road in Chang'an City at present..."
"Your Majesty, I will urge the craftsmen to make cement day and night."
After hearing what Yuan Lei, the Minister of Works, Li Shimin nodded happily and said.
"I will lead you to the wool spinning factory and soap factory first to take a look. When you come back, you will take a look at the paved road surface..."
Li Shimin waved his sleeves and led his ministers to stride away.
The cotton spinning factory is a distance from the cement factory, because Li Gen admitted that the dust in the cement factory is not good for the people's health, especially for people with qi diseases.
Therefore, there are no people living in the surrounding areas where the cement factory is built.
Li Shimin led his ministers to the cotton spinning factory, and this time he entered the factory directly.
Li Shimin looked around happily, and all the officials were shocked.
"All the ministers, these spinning machines were all made by the King of Qin. Although they are similar to Suzhou brocade manufacturing, they are still very different."
"These are all pure cotton. Look at this towel, it has a very strong water absorption capacity and is very comfortable to use."
"These cotton cloths are so comfortable to wear when worn."
"My good friends, I have decided that all the officials' uniforms will be made of this cotton cloth as raw materials in the future..."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty's Majesty's Majesty's Majesty'..."
All the officials cheered in unison, and Li Shimin, who was very happy, was rewarded with a towel.
The ministers naturally took it happily.
"Let's go and go and see the soap factory again!"
The soap factory was once in a cotton spinning factory, and it was called the soap factory. In fact, the items produced include valuable items such as soap, shower gel and perfume.
All officials followed His Majesty to step into the soap factory, and a stream of fragrance came to their faces, making everyone unable to help themselves and breathe hard.
"Your Majesty, it smells so good..."
"Soup factory, can it not smell good? It is not smell good? Can it still be called a soap factory?"
Li Shimin felt so happy when he looked at the ministers.
Everyone has never seen the world before, thanks to you, you are still important officials of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Shimin took the lead in the factory.
After all the officials followed into the factory, they realized that no wonder there was such a fragrant smell.
The factory is solid, with many petals for craftsmen to choose from in front of workers.
"You all know, now you know why perfume and other objects are so precious, because they are so complicated when they are made. Not to mention the many processes, they use real petals..."
Li Shimin stood in front of the ministers, looking like he knew everything, and began to teach the officials earnestly.
"Today is a great day, and several factories have begun to officially operate."
"I, of course, have to congratulate everyone, and each one will give you a piece of soap, a piece of soap..."
Li Shimin is reluctant to let go of perfume, bath gel and other items at the moment. It is too time-consuming and labor-intensive to make the thing.
Even so, all the ministers shouted happily, Your Majesty is wise!
Li Shimin happily led his ministers back to the cement factory.
The ground that had already begun to solidify made the ministers widen their eyes in surprise.
………
The Qin throne's car finally drove into Tianmen Pass.
And inside the Qin throne car.
Li Gen had a flintlock rifle in his hand at this time.
The flintlock gun is naturally given by the upgraded system, but unfortunately the system only provides one sample.
However, what made Li Gen happy was that while giving a sample, he also gave him 100 rounds of gunfires, and the system also gave him a perfect method of manufacturing. Of course, gunpowder and gunfires were also presented together.
Princess Wei Fenfang of Qin was surprised that Li Gen suddenly had a strange handful of objects in her hand.
However, Princess Qin did not ask.
She knew her husband's abilities. When she wanted to tell her, he would naturally tell herself that since he didn't say it, he wouldn't ask.
Just be your own Princess Qin!
The vastness of the Western Regions made Xue Rengui, Wei Shuwan and others cheer on the horse's back.
Thousands of dogs were also happy and were having fun in the wilderness.
"Prince, how long will it take to get to Luntai City?"
Wei Fenfang snuggled on Li Gen's shoulder and spoke softly.
Although recently, you can shake it on the carriage from time to time.
However, the accompanying team is too large.
What's more, his four younger brothers were all behind, and Wei Fenfang had to suppress them hard and dared not speak out.
Moreover, although the carriage is wide, it is very inconvenient to do that. It is far less comfortable than the bed.
