After all, Li Er is the emperor, and the environment he lives in every day is not anything else, but the palace.
Naturally, this condition can be fulfilled, but at the same time, Li Er is not just the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
He used to be the King of Qin, and when Li Yuan was the King of Tang, he didn't even have a title. He was just an ordinary young man. Although his family's conditions were good, Li Yuan was not an ordinary person.
This Li Yuan belonged to the military aristocracy of Guanlong. With such a background, his education in his childhood was of course quite strict. Li Yuan was strict in running his family, so Li Er did not enjoy much as a child. He could endure hardships and had seen everything.
but!
Whether it is the Chang'an Palace today or the military tents of those days, they are not even remotely similar to the small house in front of me.
It's not that this little house is strange and unheard of.
If that were the case, Li Er would be confused, but not surprised. These are two similar but actually different feelings.
There is nothing special about the tables, chairs, cabinets, and various furnishings in this small room.
The shapes of tables and chairs are horizontal and vertical, and the doors and windows are also the same, which can be said to be the same all over the world.
It is impossible for anyone to have never seen such a shape. Who has never seen a rectangle?
But Li Er can also be sure.
No one in the world has ever seen these ordinary-looking tables and chairs!
Although these tables and chairs look ordinary, they give people an extremely strong sense of refinement.
Although all tables and chairs are horizontal and vertical, the things here are made with extraordinary precision, and the straight lines are incredibly straight. Even the ordinary table legs and stool legs have an incredible sense of straightness!
No, to be exact, all the rounded rectangular items in these furnishings are like this!
This forced Li Er to observe carefully.
There are no carved beams or painted pillars, no dragons or phoenixes.
Yet everything is so exquisite.
How is this done??
After thinking hard for a long time, Li Er narrowed his eyes and remembered a place.
The Weapons Research Institute of the Tang Dynasty!
The artillery there also has a straight barrel and a round barrel. It looks like a very ordinary iron pillar shape.
However, because the processing is extremely precise, it can give people an extremely elite feeling.
That artillery, not to mention the generals who knew what it was, even ordinary soldiers who didn't know it was artillery, could not help but instinctively be cautious and dare not touch it when they first saw it.
There is no other reason than that strong sense of refinement!
However, it is a matter of course that the artillery is exquisite. This underground and this riding horse are the Great Wall of the Tang Dynasty. How can it be that the most powerful military method of the Tang Dynasty is not exquisite? That is a matter of course.
But what’s strange here is that even the tables and chairs have this feeling!
Li Er touched the tables and chairs here. They were all made of wood. They were not exotic materials. The types of wood were also different. Li Er couldn't help but curl his lips. This was the cheapest and most common material.
Although the wood materials of the tables and chairs are a little different, in general they are just popular goods - Li Er is a Emperor Wu and has little interest in these exquisite goods, but it does not mean that he does not understand them.
But such ordinary materials are made with such precision, which makes people feel really...
The key is that right after, Li Er also discovered something special. Although the wood of this table and chair was ordinary, and the texture looked like the most commonly used species among the people, he carefully observed and explored it.
This wood is actually extremely hard and tight, and it doesn't feel like cheap wood at all.
This is even more amazing, how did ordinary wood become so hard?
Li Er knew only two ways to make wood hard.
One is to soak it in tung oil. The oil-soaked wood will become extremely strong. This is what the Tengjia Army did that caused headaches for the Shu Han Dynasty. Although it was later defeated by Zhuge Liang's fire attack, it still proved to be very effective.
However, the smell of plants soaked in oil is unpleasant, so it is not used much. The more common folk method is to roast it over fire.
Roasting with fire can remove moisture. Without moisture, wood will naturally become extremely hard.
But here comes the problem. The process of roasting wood is very complicated, and ordinary craftsmen have no grasp of it. What if someone accidentally burns the expensive wood? This can easily lead to problems.
Then this.
Li Er couldn't help but find it amazing. Because the craftsmanship was difficult, it meant that the fire-roasted wood was expensive. This room looked simple in shape. The key point was that this room was still used to hold a prisoner like himself. How could it be used in such a way?
Expensive wood?
Not to mention the exquisite processing.
At this moment of thought, Li Er suddenly thought of a very outrageous thing.
Wait, this is not possible.
All the tables, chairs, cabinets and other furnishings in this "workshop" are made with such precision, right?
Damn it.
Thinking of this, Li Er was shocked.
Wouldn’t the cost of construction be as high as that of the imperial palace?
....
Although the palace is huge in area, it is still limited. There are probably tens of thousands of people living in this area, and the scope of such a large area is really much larger than the palace.
If you calculate it this way, the entire cost of this place will not be good.
If you think about it seriously, it is really possible to surpass the palace!
And this is so amazing and outrageous. What is the origin of this "engineering department"? It is so luxurious!
When Li Er was shocked, he also remembered a knock on the door, and then a middle-aged man who was slightly older than the two previous guards walked in. He looked very dignified.
Li Er thought it was good. He had a solemn and solemn temperament. If he were in the Forbidden Army, he would be a middle-level captain.
Could this be it.
"Are you the one who wanted to meet our president earlier?"
As soon as this man came in, he sat down opposite Li Er without saying a word and asked straight to the point.
Li Er secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he could meet a higher-level person, he should be more sensible and talk better.
When the other party asked, Li Er quickly smiled and nodded, cupped his fists and saluted, "That's right. Is this the captain of this place?"
Although the words "president" and "boss" are somewhat different, Li Er secretly thought they had the same meaning.
When the other party heard this, he nodded, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
"I guess my brother is from the north. We have our own rules here. Please forgive me for offending. I am the security captain here. I don't know what your last name is? Just call me captain."
After a face-to-face meeting, the captain could see that the man in front of him had an extraordinary background.
But the one who was even more surprised was Li Er. The other person called himself "someone", which meant that he was once an officer of the Forbidden Army!
This "engineering department" really has great powers and was able to recruit officers from the Forbidden Army who were disarmed and retired from the military here!
