Chapter 225 It's Nice To Have An Older Unmarried Girl
"In this way, this matter is a sure-profit deal for Datang!"
After listening, Li Yuan nodded slowly with satisfaction.
Cui Hongmo and Zheng Mingde, who were standing aside, felt happy and depressed at the same time after hearing it thoroughly.
"I wonder if you two have any doubts about Lu Jiansi and Fang Jiansi?"
After taking care of Li Yuan, Li Xuan turned his head, looked at Cui Hongmo and Zheng Mingde, and asked slowly.
"Back to your Majesty, I would like to know if this road of Jiansi and Fang Jiansi can last forever?" Cui Hongmo asked.
"You should ask His Majesty and the ministers of the DPRK about this matter."
Li Xuan curled his lips, but thinking that he had given a betrothal gift to the daughter of the Cui family, Cui Hongmo would soon become his uncle, his expression softened, and he continued: "However, as long as the family is not too greedy,
Your Majesty will never break your promise to the world!"
"Of course, if the Tang Dynasty comes to an end, it's hard to say, but that will happen hundreds of thousands of years later, and you and other aristocratic families don't have to worry so much!"
On the side, Zheng Mingde's face was full of envy.
This is the advantage of having an unmarried older sister in the family.
In the past, when had His Highness the King of Jin spoken to the two of them in such a soft voice?
"May I ask, Your Majesty, if you can take the lead in building cement roads in Qingzhou?"
Cui Hongmo continued to ask.
After spending such a period of time with Prince Jin, he finally understood that His Highness Prince Jin was indifferent and all his thoughts were focused on the Li Family Manor. If he wanted any benefit, as long as it was not too outrageous, he had to be the first to ask for it.
Otherwise, His Highness Prince Jin would never have thought of it.
Zheng Mingde also understands this truth.
Therefore, after Cui Hongmo finished speaking, his face was filled with resentment.
As expected, Cui Jiazi had a thick face and a dark heart. He was the first one to come into contact with His Highness the King of Jin. How could he be taken advantage of by this guy after he met the King?
"Build roads in Qingzhou first?"
Li Xuan was stunned.
Immediately, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
"Of course it's okay. I will talk to His Majesty about this matter after Lu Jiansi and Fang Jiansi open their offices!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Cui Hongmo looked overjoyed. As long as King Jin opens his mouth, this matter will definitely succeed.
"However, from Chang'an City to Qingzhou, it is at least two thousand miles. This requires countless money. Can your Cui family spend so much money?"
Li Xuan asked worriedly.
"Two thousand miles of road?"
Cui Hongmo couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this.
Immediately, he shook his head and said, "The king has misunderstood the villain. The villain just wants to build a few cement roads near Qingzhou! The road from Chang'an City to Qingzhou is so far away, even if the Cui family is hollowed out, it will not be taken away.
Pay so much money!"
"I see!"
A trace of disappointment flashed in Li Xuan's eyes. He was also planning to build a road from Chang'an City to Qingzhou as a meeting gift for his future Princess Jin.
"Your Majesty, we can actually build it to Xingyang first, and then build it from Xingyang to Qingzhou!"
On the side, Zheng Mingde quickly said, "To go from Chang'an City to Qingzhou, you must pass through Xingyang. I, the Zheng family in Xingyang, can pay for it!"
"Um?"
Li Xuan looked at Zheng Mingde subconsciously, with a hint of joy in his eyes, "It should be a thousand miles from Chang'an City to Xingyang. Does your Zheng family have so much money?"
Zheng Mingde looked happy and said slowly: "Back to your Majesty, although the Zheng family is just a county commander, the family is also quite wealthy! Moreover, from Chang'an City to Xingyang, the Zheng family is not the only family, there is also the Lu family in Henan Province.
The Yuan family, the Yuwen family, the Yu family, and the Changsun family, as well as the Xie family of Chen County and the Yuan family of Chen County, must also be very willing to pay for this!"
As he spoke, Zheng Mingde subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Changsun Chong and Li Chengqian.
Changsun Wuji came from Luoyang, Henan!
"As for Luoyang, near Xingyang, the aristocratic family is even more useless! Your Majesty, if you build a cement road from Chang'an City to Luoyang, the Zheng family can raise enough money without spending much money!"
After finishing speaking, Zheng Mingde glanced at Cui Hongmo beside him with a proud look on his face.
Even if your Cui family travels so far, you can't find a few decent families.
"From Chang'an to Luoyang, Xingyang, and then to Qingzhou..."
Hearing this, Li Xuan thought about the route in his mind.
He nodded slightly, this way is feasible.
"Your Majesty, do you agree?"
Zheng Mingde was overjoyed.
"I agree, but in the end it depends on His Majesty's will!"
Li Xuan glanced at Zheng Mingde speechlessly, and I agreed, why are you so happy?
"As long as the king agrees, your Majesty will also agree!"
Zheng Mingde didn't care about Li Xuan's differential treatment.
As long as a cement road is built in Xingyang first, the reputation of the Zheng family among the famous families in the world will be directly improved.
On the side, Cui Hongmo couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Cui Wulang doesn't need to worry. As long as His Majesty agrees to build this road, the Road Construction Department can open a cement workshop near Qingzhou, and Qingzhou and Chang'an City can start building cement roads at the same time!"
Li Xuan said.
At this moment, the more Li Xuan thought about it, the more he felt that it was feasible.
Luoyang is the capital of the East, with a large number of aristocratic families gathered there. As for Henan Province, which is in the Central Plains, there are countless aristocratic families. As long as this matter is raised, most of the officials in the court will agree without Li Shimin's consent.
Cui Hongmo and Zheng Mingde both looked shocked, and then Cui Hongmo turned happy.
Zheng Mingde, on the other hand, quickly said: "Your Majesty, you can also open a cement workshop in Xingyang and build cement roads from Xingyang to Qingzhou and Chang'an at the same time!"
"Of course I can think of this matter!" Li Xuandan said.
"Hey, your Majesty is wise!"
Zheng Mingde didn't take it seriously.
I'm afraid no one in the world's wealthy family knows how good cement roads are than him.
After the two said goodbye to Li Xuan, they walked on the wide and flat cement road in the village. Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo both had happy faces.
As soon as the cement road is repaired, I wonder what the expressions of all the children from aristocratic families who have laughed at them will be like?
"Zheng Balang, what kind of expression do you have?"
Suddenly, Cui Hongmo stopped and asked Zheng Mingde beside him.
"Cui Wulang, I met the king first!" Zheng Mingde said.
"But we are cooperating with the king at the same time!"
Cui Hongmo refused to give in at all.
"So what? Let's build a cement road for a certain Zheng's family first?"
As he spoke, Zheng Mingde couldn't help but beat a few times, feeling the solidity under his feet, and his face was full of pride.
"Hmph, in a few days, a certain girl will be Princess Jin!"
Cui Hongmo chuckled, lightly stamped his feet, and walked forward with a happy face.
"If it weren't for a certain girl, the King of Jin would not have built a cement road in Xingyang..."
Behind him, Zheng Mingde froze on the spot, his face full of depression!
Cuipifu, Shuzi!
Isn’t there an older girl who can’t get married? How proud is she?
After a while, Zheng Mingde sighed softly, turned around and looked around with envy at the surrounding construction sites and the two wide and flat cement roads that had been built, and then quickened his pace and headed towards Chang'an City.
.
Regardless of whether the city construction department and the road construction department are a blessing or a curse for their family, the cement road is real, and they must be the first to take away this matter from other families.
