The Yamen of the Ministry of Industry purchased all the knowledge of Lu Bansuo from Qin Wenyuan for two thousand silver taels.
Of course, you won't get the money immediately, but you will pay it in batches.
Every time Qin Wenyuan provided a variant structure of Luban Lock, the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry would pay five hundred silver taels.
Only when all four shares in his hand are provided can he truly acquire two thousand silver taels.
"tread……"
As soon as he left the yamen of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, Qin Wenyuan felt that the air today was extremely refreshing.
In just one hour, just a short distance from this door, he had risen from a pauper to a person who had no worries about food and drink!
"Madam, our family is rich." Qin Wenyuan said with a hearty smile.
Unexpectedly, Changle didn't give him a good look at all, but looked aside helplessly, "But husband, we lost a thousand taels for no reason..."
I heard this.
Qin Wenyuan was slightly startled.
It turns out that my wife is still worried about this matter.
When he was in the Ministry of Industry Yamen, Changle hinted at him many times, but Qin Wenyuan didn't pay attention because he had his own plans.
Now it seems that it is necessary to explain.
Qin Wenyuan thought for a while, stretched out his right hand and poked his wife's cheek, which could be broken by bullets, and said with a smile: "Madam, there is a very classic saying in my hometown."
"What are you talking about?" Changle suddenly became energetic.
"They say that debts to people are the hardest to repay in a person's lifetime." Qin Wenyuan said with a smile.
Favor debt??
Changle was startled for a moment, then chuckled and said, "So, husband, what you said before were just for the occasion?"
"Yes, or no."
Qin Wenyuan sighed, "I really hope that the people of the Tang Dynasty can live a good life."
"But I can't deny it. Just now I thought more about us and my wife."
"Madam, don't forget that we have lost a thousand taels. It may be worth it to let the Ministry of Works know that we and our husband owe us a debt of gratitude."
"The Ministry of Industry may not be able to help us much in the future, but what happens in the future..."
Qin Wenyuan turned to the distance, "Who can say for sure? I'm afraid Mr. Wolong doesn't dare to predict how the future will develop even when he is alive, right?"
After the words fell, I was speechless for a long time.
She raised her head and looked at her husband who was looking into the distance, her eyes becoming more and more tender.
………………
Royal Palace.
When the morning court ended, Li Shimin was still dealing with government affairs.
His complexion didn't look very good, and he had extremely dark circles under his eyes.
It can be seen that the severance of relations with his daughter Changle and the coma of his queen were huge blows to him, and they have gradually affected his ability to handle government affairs.
Perhaps, there will be no relief in the short term.
At this time, an official from outside the palace came in and said, "Your Majesty, are you looking for me?"
Li Shimin glanced hastily, nodded and said: "Yes, Mr. Lin, I am looking for you today mainly because I want to ask you whether the Ministry of Industry has a policy to solve the matter of the Sanqing Temple in the west of the city?"
"I gave you a day to mobilize and plan. How is it now?"
Now His Highness’s official is actually Lin Youwei, the minister of the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry!
Li Shimin loved Taoism, which was known to all officials.
So when something happened at Sanqing Temple in the west of the city, he quickly started to deal with it personally.
I'm afraid I might be a little neglectful.
At this moment, facing Li Shimin's inquiry, Lin Youwei would have been very frightened in the past.
Because in just one day, it is very difficult to make a plan, let alone mobilize.
And now, he is very confident!
Even being able to face Li Shimin with his head held high!
He raised his head, smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty, I have already ordered someone to deal with it."
"I believe that within a few days, the damaged area of the Sanqing Temple in the west of the city will be restored as intact as before, or even stronger than before."
"oh?"
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows, "Will it be solved within a few days? Master Lin, do you know the sin of bullying the emperor?"
He had already heard from people that the Sanqing Temple was very damaged.
Even though Li Shimin didn't understand construction, he also knew that this would not be something that could be solved in a short while!
Hearing this, Lin Youwei lost the confidence to start and bowed in fear.
"Your Majesty, I don't dare!"
"The reason why Weichen can assert this is because our Ministry of Industry has recently grasped the structure of Luban Lock!"
"Given the degree of damage to the Sanqing Temple in the west of the city, the Four Seasons Lock in the Luban Lock can definitely be repaired!"
"Four Seasons Lock is best at repairing damaged areas."
Luban lock?
Li Shimin's eyes widened, and he was shocked to the extreme.
"Has the Ministry of Industry really mastered the legendary Luban Lock now?" Li Shimin asked in disbelief.
Lin Youwei nodded, "Yes, this is provided by a folk master."
"Our Ministry of Industry spent two thousand silver taels to purchase all the Luban lock technology."
Because Qin Wenyuan donated a thousand silver taels at noon, Lin Youwei now called him master again.
"Huh? Only two thousand silver taels??" Li Shimin was even more shocked.
He never expected to buy the legendary Luban Lock at such a low price!
Lin Youwei did not dare to hide anything and said quickly: "Yes, we originally prepared three thousand silver taels, but the master said that we only need two thousand silver taels."
"The extra thousand silver taels, the master said that he cares about the people and is willing to donate it to us for the benefit of the people!"
When Li Shimin heard this, his originally stern face suddenly smiled.
"It seems that the Tang Dynasty still had hidden dragons and crouching tigers. I wonder where that master is from?" Li Shimin asked tentatively.
At this moment, when addressing the master, he was already using honorifics.
Now, he has no idea that the master he talks about is actually Qin Wenyuan, whom he was bound to kill two days ago!
Lin Youwei said, "Well... that master said that he has never been arrogant. Before he left, he repeatedly told his ministers not to be arrogant."
"Now I can only reveal to Your Majesty that he is from Baiyun County outside Chang'an City."
Baiyun County?
Isn't that where my daughter Lizi was exiled?
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, then took a deep breath and said: "Since the master who provided the Luban Lock is unwilling to reveal his reputation, from now on, Mr. Lin must remember not to reveal it to anyone."
"If you let me hear the news, you are the only one I can ask!"
Lin Youwei trembled slightly, stepped forward and clasped his hands on his forehead, "Wei Chen, obey the order!"
After saying that, Lin Youwei bowed and left.
After he left, Li Shimin took out a file, thought about it, then took out a writing brush and wrote a few words on it.
[In Baiyun County, it is suspected that there is a master who provided Luban Lock, so the construction here cannot be ignored.]
After writing it down, he laughed to himself, "Li Zhi, the master who provided Luban locks...are all in Baiyun County. It's really a twist of fate."
