"Father-in-law, my father-in-law, Fei'er and my son rushed back from Western Liaoning. They had eaten and slept in the open all the way, and they were tired and even neglected. My father-in-law would be considerate. Later, when Fei'er comes over, my son-in-law will ask her to go back home with his father-in-law to fulfill her filial piety."
"
"That's pretty much it!"
"Why are you so pretentious? My child is working hard outside. Why should he take two extra days of rest when he comes back?"
Lu Yuanming smiled at Mo Qingzi and said, these two old men usually like to argue with each other when they are fishing by the lake or playing chess in the garden by the lake. Naturally, they have to argue now. They both say that people are old.
They are still young, and I am not deceiving anyone, but these two old men are only in their forties and fifties, how could they become like this?
Others don't know that the heads of the family like Lu Yuanming and Mo Qingzi don't have many people to talk to. Meeting friends with the same interests and joking with each other naturally becomes the happiest thing.
As expected, Mo Qingzi replied to Lu Yuanming.
"Your back hurts when you sit and talk! I am so happy teasing my grandson every day. It makes my eyes warm..."
Speaking of this, Mo Qingzi seemed to remember something and suddenly said to Qin Wenyuan.
"Fei'er and your son have been out for a few months. If you are pregnant, tell me quickly."
Qin Wenyuan was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer this. Qin Changqing saw his son was embarrassed and said to Mo Qingzi with a "haha" smile.
"Why are the in-laws worried? Xiaotian and Fei'er are both still young. They may have children one day. I also hope that this kid will have more grandchildren and granddaughters, haha!"
Qin Wenyuan felt chills in his heart when he heard his father's laughing words. These old guys are really ignorant. They only care about their own happiness and don't think about how simple it is to have a child. It is said that it can be born...?
In the hall of the Qin Mansion, a few old guys teased Qin Wenyuan for a while before talking about serious matters. After learning that the situation in western Liaoning was in the hands of this boy, Qin Changqing knew from a military perspective that this place would undoubtedly be a great opportunity for the future development of the Qin family.
The eagle soared in the sky, feeling a little proud for a moment, and its face turned red with excitement.
However, Lu Yuanming sensed business opportunities. Judging from the Lu family's business spread throughout the Tang Dynasty, if he opened up trade from western Liaoning to the northeast and the grassland tribes, and traded inland materials and local specialties, the profits would be unimaginable.
Hearing that his son-in-law was planning to build a market in Lulong City, Lu Yuanming became unsettled and said to his son-in-law.
"When my good son-in-law returns to western Liaoning, why not bring his dog Qingling with him? This boy has liked to dance with guns and sticks since he was a child. Let him earn some military honors in the army and bring glory to the Lu family. In addition, I want to go to the market in Lulongcheng."
What does a good son-in-law think of occupying a place of his own?"
How could Qin Wenyuan not know Lu Yuanming's inner plan? When he came back this time, he also planned to persuade his uncle Lu Qingling to go to the Western Liaoning Army for training. Unexpectedly, his father-in-law said it first.
It is evident from this that the great family is not simple. It can always find opportunities that others cannot see. The means that can make the family survive for a hundred years are all wise.
"Father-in-law! My eldest uncle is very skilled in martial arts. It's a pity to stay at home. My son-in-law came back this time and wanted to persuade him to join the army in western Liaoning. If my eldest uncle agreed, he would have nothing to say. As for the Lu family's desire to establish a military base in western Liaoning,
The business base is my father-in-law's support for my son-in-law's work in developing people's livelihood in western Liaoning. It's too late to thank him, so how can I not do it?"
Mo Qingzi on the side waited for Qin Wenyuan to finish speaking and then continued.
"Boy! The old man in Dengzhou heard that your second uncle and the children of the Mo family are coming back. What are your plans for the future?"
"Father-in-law! After my second uncle came back, I wanted him to develop the power system of the warship so that it could sail without manpower. He and the Silla royal family wanted to cooperate in mining copper and iron. If aluminum ore could be found, then
It can play a huge role in the research and development of power systems, and this kind of power system is not only used in the military, but also can benefit people's livelihood."
Hearing what Qin Wenyuan said, the three elders in the room were very interested, but they were also puzzled by what Qin Wenyuan said about a system that does not require manpower. Mo Qingzi knew a lot about such weird theories.
After pondering for a while, he humbly asked Qin Wenyuan about the doubts in his heart.
"Boy, if the power system you mentioned does not use human power, what should it be driven by?"
Qin Wenyuan thought for a while and realized that it was too abstract to speak with words, so he lit the tea stove on the table and filled the teapot with water and boiled it. After a while, he saw that the lid of the teapot was jumping up and down due to the steam of the boiling water.
, pointing to the beating pot lid and saying to Mo Qingzi again.
"How does your father-in-law feel when he sees the lid beating?"
Zhen Nai: "One word wakes up the dreamer!"
Amid the confused expressions of Qin Changqing and Lu Yuanming, Mo Qingzi danced with excitement and pulled Qin Wenyuan along.
"Please tell me how you came up with the idea?"
"The boy also accidentally discovered this power phenomenon, so he came up with some ideas and named it a steam engine. There are large coal mines in Qizhou, and they must also be in western Liaoning. Why don't we develop a principle of burning coal to produce steam?
As a machine that drives objects to move, the best material for building such machines is aluminum..."
“What is aluminum?”
Before Qin Wenyuan could finish speaking, Mo Qingzi couldn't wait to ask the doubts in his heart.
Qin Wenyuan really wanted to slap himself in the mouth, saying that he was talking about a metal that was unknown in this era. How could he explain this?
After thinking about it for a moment, he could only continue to explain himself.
"This aluminum is equivalent to the same substance as copper and iron, except that aluminum is more malleable and lighter in weight. Aluminum that is also as large as iron is much lighter. In this case, other substances such as copper are added to the refining
As a new material, it will be easier to make the power machines we want."
Qin Wenyuan almost said the new term "aluminum alloy" again. If Mo Qingzi asked again, even he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly.
Father, son, and Weng's son-in-law talked for a long time at night before they dispersed happily. They each went back to the house to rest with what was in their hearts.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Just as the Qin family was celebrating the addition of Lin'er, Qin Wenyuan's industries far away in Chang'an City began to be hit.
In the lobby of the imperial court, Sun Chong, the young minister of Zongzheng Temple, and Wang Yuting, the minister of Honglu Temple, joined forces with the sub-supervisor Kong Yingda to offer wine. They impeached Qin Wenyuan's "Nishang" brand of Chang'an City's clothing for being immoral and ignorant of etiquette and shame.
Women and women in the Tang Dynasty wore revealing clothing, which in the long run would inevitably go against Confucian civilization.
Li Shimin did not know what was going on, and ordered Fu Yihui, the minister of Taichang Temple, and Changsun Chong to investigate the matter thoroughly. Fu Yi took the order and returned to the Yamen. Cui Zhengyong, the young minister of Taichang Temple, told him that the "Nishang" brand garment shop in Chang'an City was owned by Qin Wenyuan.
Moreover, Chai Shaowu, the son of the eldest princess Li Xiuning, was also involved. Fu Yi felt very headache when he found out that he did not dare to offend Qin Wenyuan, not to mention that Chai Shizi was also involved.
Fu Yi planned to deal with the matter perfunctorily and then resume the order. Unexpectedly, Changsun Chong summoned Marquis Wu to cooperate in sealing down the "garment shop". Fu Yi had no choice but to pretend to be sick and let Changsun Chong take over.
Chen Laosan in Chang'an City had discovered the news early. In addition to flying pigeons to Qizhou to deliver the message, he also informed the housekeeper Qin Shijun and the princess's mansion Chai Shaowu, and told his eldest and second brothers to stay in "Qin Village" outside the city to manage the vegetable base.
Pay more attention to recent developments in the city.
On this day, Changsun Chong led Marquis Wu to the "Nishang" brand clothing sales headquarters and the largest "garment shop" in the east city of Chang'an City. Qin Shijun went out to greet him, pretending to ask Changsun Chong what he wanted to do with his troops breaking into the trading place.
, Changsun Chong pulled a chicken feather to serve as an arrow and shouted majestically.
"I have been ordered to seal this place and arrest all of you for being immoral!"
At this moment, Chai Shaowu walked out of the "Garment Shop" and said angrily.
"Changsun Chong! Don't show off your power here and show me your decree. If the emperor has a decree to seal this place, I'll let you do whatever you want. Otherwise, you are pretending to pass on the imperial edict. I will go to the palace to tell you what you want."
The crime of deceiving the emperor."
"Chai Shaowu, I advise you to stop meddling in other people's business. Others are afraid of you but I don't care about you. Here are the people! Let me take down all the people in the shop, confiscate all the items and seal this place."
Hearing Changsun Chong's shouting, all the Wuhous raised their weapons and tried to take people by force. Dozens of men under Li Xiuning's command had already appeared inside and outside the house to surround Wuhou and prevent him from advancing or retreating. These men who had experienced battles with the eldest princess had
How could they be easy to get along with? Everyone was glaring with anger. They were looking down on Marquis Wu of Chang'an City.
These men are all recruited by Qin Wanying, who has just given birth to Lin'er, who is still in the middle of the month. They all have great admiration for the young mistress who is the current head of the princess's house, and both the secret guards and the men guarding the house.
Respect, since the young mistress has been in charge, all the major and minor matters in the princess's mansion have been in order. In addition, Qin Wanying is fair in dealing with things and convinces people with reason, which has won the recognition of the princess and the prince and the love of the people in the mansion.
After hearing the news from Chen Laosan, Qin Wanying had already sent these men to guard the safety of the "garment shop". She must not let her brother's hard work be ruined. They just came in handy today...
Seeing that they were the warriors under the command of the eldest princess, all the princes of Wu suddenly felt that the situation was a bit difficult, and they all stood still for a moment. Seeing this, the eldest grandson Chong knew that things might not be going well today, so he spoke softly to Chai Shaowu.
"Master Chai, do you want to resist the decree? I'm not afraid that the emperor will hold him accountable!"
"Chang Sun Chong! Don't scare Mr. Chai with these words. How about we go to the temple to face the saint?"
Chai Shaowu is also a character who accepts softness but not hardness. If you want to bully others, he will bully others better than you. Who doesn't know that the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, Li Xiuning, will not be angry if she is not angry. If she starts to fight, even the emperor will have to give in.
Among the official ladies who had come to the "Clothing Shop" to buy clothes for a long time, the women initially did not dare to speak out because of the power of Changsun's family. At this time, they were also very dissatisfied with Changsun Chong's actions. What do you think of others?
It doesn't matter whether you sell clothes or selling clothes. It's worth your while to mobilize troops and come to cause trouble. For a moment, everyone started to criticize, causing pedestrians on the street to gather more and more after seeing the truth. After learning the truth of the matter, most of the people were also upset.
Get up, and the one who agitates these people is the eyeliner under Chen Laosan.
Seeing the people making a fuss, Changsun Chong, who had been humiliated by Chai Shaowu and had nowhere to express his anger, was furious and secretly said:
"I can't help but Chai Shaowu can't cure you untouchables?"
This fellow was hot-headed and loudly ordered Wu Hou to take someone. Suddenly, chaos began in front of the "Xu Ji Garment Shop" in the East City. Many people clashed with Wu Hou. There were informants who had been hiding among the people and people from Qin Village who came from Qin Village to help.
The former Qin family's army and the Han army launched a counterattack against Wuhou, causing the people and Wuhou to fight more and more chaotically. The number of people fighting increased, and both sides suffered injuries. Even Changsun Chong was hit by objects flying from there and suffered severe pain in his shoulders and back.
The door of "Qin Ji Garment Shop" has been closed for a long time. Dozens of warriors stood guard in front of the door. They pointed at Wu Hou who was fighting with the people with a hip-hop look like they were watching the fun and not taking it too seriously...
Seeing that the situation was getting worse and worse, all the shops in the East City closed their doors tightly, and Wu Hou went around chasing the troublemaking people on the streets.
At this time, Chen Laosan ordered the gangsters and servants in the "Huang Gang" to start spreading rumors in Chang'an City, saying that Chang Sun Chong led Chang'an City Wuhou to oppress innocent people. Seeing that the Qin family's business was booming, he wanted to take advantage of Chang'an County.
The imperial court decreed that Xu Tianyuan, the governor of Pingzhou, was in western Liaoning to open up the country for the Tang Dynasty. When he was not in Chang'an, he wanted to seize the Qin family's property and did the shameless thing of bullying others.
This talk spread all over the streets for a while, and people who didn't know the truth were angry that the eldest son's family had taken advantage of other families' properties. They all said that Lord Xu guarded the borders and expanded the territory for the Tang Dynasty. It seemed that these heroes who contributed to the Tang Dynasty were me.
Waiting for those who were supposed to support, for a while, a large number of people gathered in front of the Changsun family's "Zhao Guogong" mansion and started making noises. There was even a scoundrel who thought the crime was not big enough. The boy brought filthy things from nowhere and threw them at the gate and wall of the "Zhao Guogong" mansion.
Saying hello on the street made the whole street stink.
How could the guards of the Changsun family endure such arrogance? They came out of the house one after another to fight against the people. In an instant, many people were beaten with bloody heads. This move further aroused the anger of the people of Chang'an City. Among them were some with extraordinary martial arts skills.
They took action to fight with the guards of the Changsun family, but they saw chaos in front of the "Zhao Guogong" house, and the situation was difficult to control.
The Yin Mansion in Jingzhao was shocked when the news came out, and quickly dispatched a large number of Wuhou to quell the chaos. At the same time, they urgently reported to the imperial court that they wanted to mobilize the Chang'an City garrison to help quell the chaos.
At the court, Li Shimin was furious after learning the cause and effect of the incident, and hurriedly issued an order to Qianniu Guard General Cheng Yaojin to lead his army to quell the rebellion of the people in Chang'an City. At the same time, he summoned Taichang Temple Qing Fu Yi and Zongzheng Temple Shao Qing Zhang Sun Chong to join Chai Shaowu in the palace.
At this moment, a raging fire broke out in the Changsun family's restaurant in Dongshi. All the diners and waiters in the restaurant fled outside, and there was a loud cry of crying for father and mother.
The weather was dry and dry in summer, and the fire spread rapidly. The sound of "water flowing" could be heard all over the streets. Wuhou, who was responsible for the safety of Chang'an City, found a water dragon and was busy putting out the fire. By the time the fire was brought under control, dozens of shops adjacent to the restaurant were destroyed.
in the fire.
This sudden fire was naturally the work of the three brothers of the Chen family. Boss Chen heard that Changsun Chong wanted to harm his master, and he had already wanted to kill Changsun Chong, but it was hard to do anything in Chang'an City.
