It would be so interesting to have a ship of your own.
But he still doesn't know how to speak.
And Xue Rengui hasn't come up yet.
If you talk about Li Lizhi and Li Min, then maybe it's okay.
Therefore, he said: "Li Zhi, come here, I have something to ask you!"
"Yes, Father!"
Li Lizhi was chatting with Empress Changsun, but when she heard Li Shimin calling her, she came over.
Queen Changsun and others were also puzzled.
What did Li Shimin want to do, and why did he call Li Lizhi over alone?
Do you have any little secrets to tell me?
Li Li asked: "What's the matter with my father?"
Li Shimin did not reply, but walked to the side. His intention was very obvious, that is, not to let anyone listen to what he said.
When Li Lizhi saw this, she followed him.
"Tell me, what kind of drive does this ship use? You said it's diesel? Is it driven by diesel oil?"
When Li Lizhi heard this, she realized that Li Shimin was talking about this.
So she told everything she knew.
"No, father, because the sixth brother got this diesel oil! But it is not oil obtained from firewood! It is obtained from another place."
In the early days, diesel was not used as machine fuel, but as lamp oil. Because this oil produces black smoke during combustion, the burning state is the same as burning wood, so it is called diesel.
Of course, Li Lizhi didn't know these things, so she could only say this.
When Li Shimin heard this, he felt that he couldn't ask anything from Li Lizhi.
But I asked another question.
"Then where does this oil come from? Do you know?"
"Father, I heard that it is extracted from something called petroleum!"
Li Shimin had heard of oil.
There are many things that can be made with that thing.
Because the Shengtang Group produced something, and according to his intelligence, it was refined from petroleum.
Moreover, he also knows that oil is extracted from the ground.
Unexpectedly, this oil can also be used to produce diesel fuel for ships.
This world is really wonderful.
It seems that there are still many things he doesn't know.
"Is that so? That's right!"
Li Shimin suddenly seemed to think of something.
"Father, please speak!"
"Can they build another ship to Chang'an so that the people can see what this so-called fuel ship is like, so that they can gain insights."
Li Lizhi finally understood what Li Shimin wanted.
He simply wanted to build a similar ship in Chang'an City.
"Father, Rengui also said just now that Chang'an could not accommodate such a big ship, so the sixth brother thought of putting it in Qingzhou. Not only are there Qingzhou, but there are many such ships in Taizhou as well. Now there are many ships like this every month.
Several boats were produced."
No matter how big the two rivers, Bahe and Weihe, are, they are not bigger than the sea.
For such a big boat, the water it needs to drink is extremely deep.
Although the Bahe and Weihe rivers can be considered big rivers, they are not that big yet.
This is obviously unrealistic.
Li Shimin immediately said:
"I mean we don't need such a big boat. It can be smaller than this! As long as it can travel in the Bahe and Weihe rivers, the size doesn't matter. Moreover, if there is such a boat, all envoys from outside can see it.
If you get it, it will strengthen our country’s prestige!”
Li Shimin really knows how to speak, and can turn his personal interests into such an irresistible reason.
Speaking of national prestige.
Then this matter can be said to be very serious, and it needs to be taken seriously.
Li Lizhi thought for a while and then said:
"I have to talk to my sixth brother about this. Maybe my sixth brother will agree!"
She understood that Li Min would most likely agree if she said so.
Li Shimin was overjoyed.
Then in the future, he will take a boat ride on the Bahe and Weihe rivers. How wonderful that would be.
At that time, there is no need to come to Qingzhou to experience it.
You can even put on a good show in front of foreigners.
Let the world know how powerful he, Li Shimin, is.
Although all the credit for this belongs to Li Min.
But, isn’t that what happened in the Tang Dynasty under his rule?
"Thank you for your hard work!"
Li Shimin was extremely happy.
With Li Lizhi's persuasion, it will be completed quickly.
Why do you say this? Because Li Min usually listens to Li Lizhi, and Li Lizhi also encourages Xue Rengui. Therefore, the matter of having a ship in Chang'an should be realized soon.
When he thought of this, he smiled happily.
"Father, this is what I should do for the sake of the Tang Dynasty."
Li Lizhi expressed this.
"Yes, my son really deserves to be rewarded for his consideration of the people."
"Father, don't be like this! This is really nothing. After I get back, I will have a good talk with Rengui, and then I will sort out the documents and give them to my sixth brother for his approval."
"Documents? Approval? Does he think he is the emperor?" Li Shimin was a little unhappy.
How could this Li Min be like this? What else should he need to approve? Can't he just agree directly?
"Father, I don't know. In the words of my sixth brother, this is called a feasibility report. This is the Shengtang Group's way of doing things. After everything is done, there will be feasibility and feasibility. If the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, then this matter will
The landing will be very fast. If it is the other way around, it will basically not work!”
"Is he acting dictatorial?"
This is Li Shimin's most direct view.
"No, no, no, my father misunderstood. Because the ship costs too much, and the Shengtang Group spends a huge amount of money every day. If everything is done, then a hundred Shengtang Group will not be enough.
Wasteful. So, Liu brother came up with this method. After our report is submitted, there will be a dedicated person to review it. As long as more than half of the people agree, then we will go to Liu brother for final approval. Furthermore, we will get the money.
Come out and make plans!"
When Li Shimin heard this, he realized that this was the case.
If you do this, it will not grow wildly.
This is good for the future of Shengtang Group.
Li Shimin showed extremely strong interest.
If this matter can be used in the imperial court, it must be good.
Write an application before doing anything.
Then let the people below go through it first, and then review it yourself. This way, you will have fewer things to do.
So, he said:
"Can you tell me what the process is like?"
"Yes, Father."
Li Lizhi told Li Shimin everything she knew.
He could be heard nodding constantly, and his performance was noticed by Empress Changsun, Concubine Yang and others.
None of them knew what Li Lizhi was talking about.
It wasn't until the ship started to sail towards the land of Lai that everyone focused on other places.
But Li Lizhi is still talking about everything she knows.
