Waiting for lightning to strike or waiting for Li Jiancheng to die of old age is naturally nonsense.
Under Xiao Han's furious questioning, Cheng Yaojin finally stopped titillating and told him his plan.
His plan is simple and direct, that is to hire a killer!
I have to say here that the promising profession of killer is still very marketable in today's world!
Years of war have created many ruthless people who are willing to lick blood! They are also willing to make such quick money.
But, with those killers, could they really kill Li Jiancheng?
Xiao Han expressed deep doubts about this.
And, think about it further!
Even if Li Jiancheng is really killed, what will happen?
Without follow-up measures, Li Shimin could only wait until Li Yuan died so that he could pass the throne to him!
Let’s not talk about how many years Li Yuan can live, let’s just say that after killing Li Jiancheng, others will not be stupid!
If the prince dies, will Li Yuan really hand over the crown prince's position to Li Shimin, who killed his brother?
Maybe not!
Although it seems now that Li Yuan's only choices for successors are Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng.
But after all, he is not so old that he is about to die. He still has a lot of time to wait for his other sons and even his grandson to grow up!
Until then, Li Shimin, who had broken his heart, would have no chance at all!
As usual, Cheng Yaojin persuaded Cheng Yaojin to give up the idea with kind words. After dragging his heavy steps back to bed, Xiao Han suddenly felt why his life had been so difficult recently.
I used to think that I had insight into world affairs and could see things more clearly than anyone else! Now I realize that those histories have their own destiny! If you get involved yourself, you can only make things more chaotic by getting more involved. Now the best way is to think
Way to stay out of it!
So in the following days, Xiao Han would not leave Sanyuan County even if he died. He led Cheng Yaojin around this three-acre area every day, trying to figure out the things that he had no time to do before.
In Sanyuan County, people were used to Xiao Han leading a black man around, but not many could recognize that the black man was Cheng Yaojin.
Because everyone who knew Cheng Yaojin had been warned by Xiao Han, no one dared to tell anyone.
Those who don't know him would just think that Xiao Han getting another follower is not a big deal.
After all, there have been quite a lot of people coming to the house recently.
For example, two days ago, a small caravan came to the door. Originally, Butler Lu would not show up to many people like this, but for some reason, his own Marquis actually received these people in person.
That's not all. I heard that after these people were settled, the leader changed his identity and directly became a shopkeeper. In the future, he will exclusively take the Shanxi line, which made a lot of people drool with envy!
You must know that Xiao Mansion has now passed the stage of building things behind closed doors and has begun to expand externally in an orderly manner.
Hanzhong, Luoyang, Shandong.
The lines in these places have been opened. Correspondingly, the status of the shopkeepers in charge of these lines has also risen with the tide.
Not only do these people receive high remuneration, but their family members also hold their heads high and chest out when walking in the village, and are not afraid of snow getting into their nostrils.
Things on the business road are now basically handled by Zi Yi and Zhang Qiang, and Xiao Han usually doesn't interfere.
In addition to giving him a new accounting method and changing the original simple numbers such as one, two and three into the Arabic numeral 123 combined with the traditional one, two and three, he was relieved to become a hands-off shopkeeper. At most, he could check the numbers on a whim.
Checking the account books counts as effort.
On the other side of the river, the smelting progress in the industrial zone seems to have hit a bottleneck.
It has been a long time since I heard of any new smelting methods and tools.
However, Xiao Han had already expected this.
After all, the rise of a technical level requires the accumulation of a lot of experience and technology, and even the help of the joint development of other knowledge, before it can be finally completed. If there is no one during the period, it will not work!
Therefore, regarding this point, Xiao Han just comforted Master Cao and others and let them study it.
In the industrial area, in addition to smelting, basic chemical research based on sulfuric acid is now added.
It's just that this area is a little different from the others. Most of them are done by Xiao Lang and a group of young people.
In fact, it's not like we didn't let old masters do this before, but those old people's way of thinking has been fixed and they can't understand those chemical phenomena at all.
Not only could I not understand it, but I also made a joke out of it:
When those old masters saw that one thing, when added with another thing, would become a brand new thing, their first reaction was not to study it, but to kneel down and kowtow as if they were seeing a ghost.
This made Xiao Han feel helpless and ridiculous.
It is also true that chemistry is all left to young people, and the magic water used by Taoist sects to deceive people all over the world, that is, Bordeaux liquid, is all made by them.
gunpowder.
This is the thing that Xiao Han has always valued most, and it is also the most dangerous thing at the moment.
For this, Xiao Han devoted most of his energy and formulated the most stringent regulations based on the theoretical experience of later generations!
But even so, accidents still happen from time to time.
People in Sanyuan County are now accustomed to frequent thunderstorms over Stone Mountain.
Some adults even solemnly warned their children: There is a thunder god living on the other side of the mountain, so don't dare to play there!
However, one day, there was a thunder far louder than before on the other side of Stone Mountain!
Stone Mountain, which had been thundering for a long time, finally calmed down, and from then on, there was no thunder there again!
This makes some superstitious people even more certain: Mr. Thunder God once lived in his home, but later he suddenly moved away for unknown reasons.
Could it be that my Lord Marquis did not make a good offering to other gods?
Many people in Sanyuan County think so!
Because, if they think about it, Xiao Han is likely to be able to do this!
I have never seen other people serve ancestral pig heads, chickens, ducks, fish, and wine during the Chinese New Year, but they are all burned in the end.
He is the only one who puts on a show, and when he is removed, he eats and drinks when he should!
When someone asked, they plausibly said that their ancestors had long enjoyed their souls.
This body should be eaten by the children and grandchildren, and should not be wasted! Not to mention burning the good things all at once, that is the behavior of a prodigal!
Please, let the whole world know that you are the biggest loser, okay?!
Xiao Han didn't know about other people's slander. Of course, even if he knew, there was nothing he could do.
The last explosion directly killed several craftsmen!
Xiao Han, who rushed over and witnessed the tragic scene, immediately ordered that all fire and medicine workshops be moved to Qinling. From then on, no further research related to it was allowed in Sanyuan County.
This is not because Xiao Han is afraid of death. Now that fire and medicine are only in their earliest stages, they have already revealed their violent side!
From now on, what's the point? Who wants to sleep next to a woman every day?
