The ringing sound came, and Li Shimin was shocked.
What is this sound?
Why so urgent?
He found a small black bell on the wall that was now making a sound.
Ring ring ring…
And everyone outside stood up and headed out the door.
In an instant, the entire office became deserted.
Such a change made Li Shimin even more surprised.
Where are the people? Why are they all out? Is something happening outside?
He asked: "Kong Yingda, what's going on?"
Dai Zhou on the other side seemed to be used to it and didn't react much.
Therefore, he did not expect Li Shimin to react like this and did not wait for him to speak.
Kong Yingda said quickly: "Your Majesty, this is the bell for getting off work. It's already noon, and when the bell rings, it's time for lunch to arrive!"
"What? The ringtone for getting off work? Off duty for what?"
Li Shimin was a little confused.
"Yes, Your Majesty! Sir, working hours are called shifts. When you go to work, you are working time, and when you are off work, it is the opposite!"
"Is there anything special about this ringtone? When does it ring?"
Li Shimin nodded in understanding, pointed to the bell on the wall and asked again.
Kong Yingda said: "Generally, the bell rings four times a day. The first time is when you get up early, around 8 o'clock. When the bell rings, everyone must work and are not allowed to leave their seats without permission.
The second time was at noon. When it was time to eat, as soon as the bell rang, everyone had to leave their seats and go to the canteen to eat, just like now.
The third time was at 2 o'clock. Likewise, everyone must be at work.
Finally, around 5 p.m., when the fourth bell rings, everyone can leave their posts and go back to rest! If there are still things that have not been done, you can stay in the Shengtang Group. The Shengtang Group will provide some food.
, feed them." Upon hearing this, Li Shimin was speechless.
In fact, this is just borrowing future commuting time.
The same goes for going to school.
But in the eyes of the ancients, this Li Min was really strong.
How could you actually come up with such a fancy thing?
Your own court may be able to refer to it.
From now on, these ministers must arrive for the morning court after hearing the bell.
You can only leave when the bell rings at noon.
In this way, officials can be punctual and disciplined.
Li Shimin was overjoyed. He had gained so much this time!
It seems that there are some things that you have to see for yourself, otherwise you won’t be able to understand the meaning!
That’s more profound than what others have said!
At the same time, he focused on another word.
This word makes people feel novel. It is a word that he has never heard before! In fact, there are many words that he has never heard of!
I received a lot of new words today.
"Canteen, what on earth is a canteen?"
Li Shimin asked again. He was like a child who had just learned to speak, full of curiosity about everything!
Kong Yingda further explained: "The so-called canteen, food, food, hall hall, is the hall that provides food and drink."
"Oh? It's interesting that there is such a title in this world! It's very appropriate! Is it the name given by that kid again?"
Li Shimin asked.
Kong Yingda immediately responded: "Your Majesty is wise because of the Sixth Prince. The Sixth Prince is really a genius. There is probably nothing he can't do in this world. Everything he does makes people applaud.
The existence of the Sixth Prince in the Tang Dynasty is simply a blessing for the Tang Dynasty!"
Kong Yingda praised him. They didn't feel any change in Li Shimin's face at this time.
How could you praise Li Min like this in front of him? That would make him feel uncomfortable. Although he knew that the stronger Li Min was, the better the Tang Dynasty would be, he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart!
Dai Zhou noticed Li Shimin's strange behavior and immediately interrupted him.
Said: "Your Majesty, why don't we go to the cafeteria and have a look?"
This was the ultimate purpose of their trip. The others were just mentioned.
It happened that Kong Yingda mentioned the canteen, and it was Li Shimin who wanted to see how Li Min solved the food problem of these 100,000 people.
It is said that seeing is believing and hearing is false. Everything is based on what you see. If you judge people alone, you can only have one concept.
What came out of Dai Zhou's mouth was not as good as seeing it himself.
"But Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is not good!"
But we can't let Li Shimin show his face in a place with so many people. If something happens, who will be responsible?
So he refused.
"What's wrong?"
"There are many people in the cafeteria. It would be bad if His Majesty's identity is exposed! If something happens to Your Majesty, I can't afford it!"
Dai Zhou said: "Master Kong, what are you afraid of? The Tang Dynasty is not the same as the previous dynasty. We are afraid that there will be lawless elements that will harm your majesty! And the people recruited by the Shengtang Group are not all loyal and kind-hearted people? Why are they?
Will Zhongneng be detrimental to His Majesty?"
Li Shimin agreed.
Then he said: "I'm already here, why should I be afraid of exposing my identity? Okay! Kong Lingda. I'm hungry now and want to eat something. Take me to the cafeteria quickly."
Kong Yingda had no choice.
Facing Li Shimin's majesty, he had no choice but to surrender.
"But……"
"Okay, stop talking so much and let's go!"
Dai Zhou then said: "Yes, let's set off now! Let your majesty eat and see if the food of Shengtang Group is good!"
"I want to take a look. What's unique about this canteen?"
Kong Yingda had a feeling that these two people were in the same group.
They were talking to each other one by one, and it felt like they were cooperating.
"Then your Majesty, please follow me!"
Then Kong Yingda glared at Dai Zhou.
At this point he already understood.
Li Shimin came here just as a pretense, his real purpose was to see the canteen.
Then go ahead, you won't lose anything anyway.
I'm afraid that if I meet the Sixth Prince, I won't be able to explain it at that time.
"Let's go, let's go quickly, don't stay here!"
Li Shimin said again.
There is no one in the entire office now, and there is no point in being there.
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
Kong Yingda got up and opened the door.
"Your Majesty, please come this way!"
So the three of them left the office and headed to the cafeteria.
Running up, Kong Yingda asked Dai Zhou in a low voice.
"Did you ask His Majesty to come here on purpose?"
Dai Zhou said innocently: "No! I can't help myself either!"
Kong Yingda sighed.
It looked like there was nothing we could do.
When they walked out of the room, they directly saw a sea of people, all looking at the same place.
Needless to say, the direction they were going was where the cafeteria was.
Almost everyone is heading in that direction.
This scene is shocking.
This made Li Shimin even more curious.
What kind of existence is this canteen?
If we can learn a thing or two from the canteen's business model, maybe the imperial court can also imitate it!
