Chapter 33 Lai Ding

Although Wang Hua used an old official to "write" this poem, he thought of the words he said at the beginning, and wanted to make a lot of money to help all the poor in the world live a good life. Looking at the last few lines of this poem, he meditated on the unemployed, because he was thinking about the soldiers from afar. He was worried about the heavenly garrison, and the cave was unattainable. His worries about the country and the people were vividly reflected in the "poetry".

This poem reached Wu Zetian's ears, and Wu Zetian was so amused that he said to his ministers: "This little flower is good, but am I a fool?"

Several trusted ministers dared not speak. The poem had a good idea, but the poem ruthlessly satirized the licentious life of the powerful and noble. Wu Zetian said again: "Thinking about his life experience, I am willing to forgive him for this, but when I see him, I will also order people to slap him a few times on the butt."

How many slaps are this? What kind of punishment is this? If this is also a punishment, it is estimated that at least two-thirds of the civil and military officials in the court want to get this punishment. But I also know that Wu Zetian was not angry. How could she be considered a tyrant, but she is not too foolish than some tyrants.

Such a mind makes people feel respectful.

Wang Hua said again: "Nine Lady, have you heard the story of Emperor Hui of Jin? Many ordinary people starved to death. He asked people in the palace that they had no food to eat, so why don't they eat meat? Now take a look!"

As he said that, he pointed to the villagers and said, "Today is a clan meeting. Everyone held a meat and fish, but what do they usually eat? Sometimes they don't have enough food to eat, so they have to eat bark, wild vegetables, grass roots, and I have eaten it. In this case, can you still pursue their eating behavior?"

In fact, no one understands Wang Hua’s intention!

Whether Li Guer is ambiguous or playing with him, he is always releasing kindness now. Therefore, Wang Hua uses this poem and this sentence to give her a profound response. He does not want this beautiful little girl to become so luxurious and cruel in the future. In the end, even her father will be killed for wealth, but what is the result?

Xiaoyu really flattered her mouth: "I didn't say anything, why are you reciting poems and scolding?"

The following words have not been said yet. You are just an ordinary citizen, Baiyi, what qualifications are you to point at me? But Li Longji glared at her fiercely again, Xiaoyu was so scared that she dared not explain it.

Li Longji bowed again and said, "I have benefited a lot from listening to Erlang's words today. Thank you."

Wang Hua smiled: "I dare not."

Then he greeted other guests.

Xiaoyu was really not convinced, so she hummed and slapped the roe deer meat in the dish with chopsticks. It turned out that she was venting the meat as a king painting.

It was not until the banquet finally ended that several yamen run back and forth. For the sake of the uninvited guests of the Wang family today, they ran back and forth several times without even having enough food. Wang Hua took some money to reward him. Then he brought the tribes and the tribes to bow again, put away the tribes and the tribes and several masters in the county.

The people of the Wang family in the village continued to stay and help, washing and returning the borrowed dishes, tables, chairs, and plasters. This job is not easy. Now there is one more thing, to make a room for the Wang family. Li Guer and the others are not a big age. However, Wang Hua brought Li Longji to sleep with Li Chongmao, the little kid, in the same bed, Princess Anle and Yu Zhen, and the two of Princess Jinxian slept in the same bed. The rest of the people, sorry, let a few people squeeze in a room. In this way, several boatmen and Lu Ergou had to move to the boat to sleep.

In addition to emptiing the room, he was also borrowing a bed. He was busy watching the whole family and the people of the same clan. Wang Hua thought about it and found that this was not a solution. So he found Li Longji and the others again.

Now these teenagers are watching the scenery by a stream outside the village.

Outside Luoyang City is Mangshan, and several people often climb the mountain. It is precisely because of the many tourists that many roads and pavilions and temples have been built on the mountain, so the scenery may be better. But compared with Tianling Mountain, there is more carvings and less nature.

Now looking at the vast mountains and the gurgling streams, you can occasionally see one or two fish jumping out of the water. On the rugged mountain roads, there are still people sweating profusely in the fields. Compared with Mangshan, it also has a unique charm.

Wang Hua said: "Dear Your Highness, I have one more thing I forgot to tell you. Because there is still an important raw material for burning porcelain, I will go to Hanoi County and Wuzhi County tomorrow."

Since Li Gudu said it, the title was casual, and Wang Hua was also very happy. Now there are no one else, Wang Hua continues to use me and has not changed it to a minister. His words are not lies.

The porcelain kiln was settled and the clan conference was over. The firing of new porcelain was put on the agenda.

The raw material he mentioned is coal.

Either to the south, there is a large coal mine in Pingdingshan, but it is separated from Songshan in the middle, which makes transportation inconvenient. Therefore, Wang Hua focused his attention on another important coal-producing base in Henan, Jiaozuo. Now there is only one Yellow River separated from Gongxian. Wang Hua carefully compared it. Compared with the Yellow River in his previous life, the current Yellow River moved a lot from Luoyang. In other words, after crossing the Yellow River to the north, he arrived at the location of coal production in Jiaozuo. This saved transportation costs and time. Jiaozuo's anthracite is also famous in the country.

This is not something you can dig after walking. Jiaozuo's coal production area mainly starts from Xiuwu in the east, Boai in the west, and Wuzhi in the south, which is more than 100 miles long and nearly forty miles wide. Boai is the current Henoi County. Although the distribution range is very wide, the terrain is very different from the original terrain over the years. Therefore, in the past, we had to detect and search with points to the surface.

This can only be done in deserted mountains and rivers where there is no owner, so you can take your people to dig deep pits. Even if you dig it, you have to negotiate with local officials to buy this land. The money is not much, just a piece of land is done. Anyway, it is enough to drill underground, but this procedure is a bit difficult. The Tang Dynasty was very strict in land purchase and sale management, of course, this is only for people like Wang Hua who have no status.

However, there is one advantage that Wang Hua does not intend to make profits. Now, firewood and carbon are very cheap, and as for coal to smel steel or something, Wang Hua doesn't seem to have the ability to use it to smelter steel. Therefore, it is enough to burn it yourself, and the amount is not too large. Therefore, it will not attract people's jealousy. At the same time, the amount is not large, so it will not dig too deep, there will be no landslides, and any bad incidents of gas explosions will make people ask for trouble.

Hearing Wang Hua say this, these masters are unhappy. Wang Hua wants to drive them away again.

Li Guer said: "It doesn't matter, at worst, let's go with you."

It’s not that easy to drive us away, but it’s up to you anyway. I believe you dare not say that I don’t welcome you here, so get out of here!

Li Longji wanted to laugh after hearing this. He had to ask this little guy, as his cousin.

Wang Hua looked at Li Guer, thought for a long time but still couldn't. Finally, he said, "Okay, as long as you are not afraid of suffering."

There will be many troubles with these masters, and it is not without benefits. With these masters, this is a tiger skin, and buying land will simplify many procedures. If any officials are in a dilemma, maybe these masters, especially this Princess Anle, may even save money on buying land by then.

Li Guer's eyes rolled and said, "It's okay to endure hardships, but this time we came to help you cover up your identity. You must repay this kindness."
