"So I think it is not impossible to predict this matter with Su Chen's Buddhist practice!"
Hearing this, His Majesty Li Er was a little dumbfounded.
He, Changsun Wuji and others looked at each other and said with some disbelief: "Do you think this kid is really a Buddhist practitioner?"
"I can be completely sure about this."
Li Chunfeng nodded and said, "I traveled throughout the Tang Dynasty in the early years."
"I also had an acquaintance with the abbot of Guangde Temple in Xiangyang."
"Ke Chen feels that the level of the abbot of Guangde Temple is much worse than that of little friend Su Chen!"
"So, I feel that little friend Su Chen is not only a Buddhist practitioner, but may even be the one with the most profound Buddhist realm in our country today!"
Li Chungang couldn't help but shook his head and said with emotion: "I thought I had some talent in practicing."
"Now that I have met little friend Su Chen, I understand what it means to be someone outside the world, and there is a world outside the world!"
"I really can't figure out how he can reach such a state at this age!"
"This is really confusing for me!"
After hearing what he said, Changsun Wuji smiled bitterly and said, "I never expected that little friend Su Chen has such abilities!"
"Your Majesty, it seems that our Tang Dynasty's treasury may really be completely emptied!"
Du Ruhui took a sip of tea, looked calm, and said calmly: "I have long said that my friend Su Chen is an expert!"
"What he said will definitely not be unreasonable. Why should we go through this again?"
"Just cooperate with him fully!"
His Majesty Li Er ignored Du Ruhui and asked Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling: "What do you think?"
Wei Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, that's it for now, even if we don't believe it, we have to believe it!"
Although Fang Xuanling said nothing, she nodded in agreement.
"That's it!"
His Majesty Li Er let out a long sigh and said with some pain: "When that little bastard comes back later, I will test him and see how much money he wants this time!"
Not long after he finished speaking, Su Chen walked in with a glass kettle.
Before Su Chen could sit down, His Majesty Li Er asked: "Can the dam you and my daughter talked about really be able to stop the flood in two years?"
Su Chen looked at him very strangely and said, "Of course, if it can't be stopped, why should I bother to study it?"
After hearing this, His Majesty Li Er gritted his teeth and said, "Then how much money do you plan to rip off the current saint this time?"
He thought that Su Chen would spit out an astonishing astronomical figure, but he didn't expect that Su Chen sighed and said, "This time it is really a bit troublesome."
"how do I say this?"
"It's easy to say that money is needed for building dams, but in fact it won't be very useful."
"Now that I have just taken over Changsun's shop, the cost of building the iron bars used as the skeleton is not high."
"There is no need to spend money on stones, just push down the embankments built by the former Sui Dynasty and smash them to pieces."
Upon hearing this, His Majesty Li Er's eyes suddenly lit up.
"It doesn't cost anything. Isn't that a good thing? Why are you sighing?"
"There's a shortage of people!"
Su Chen said worriedly: "I think it will take a lot of manpower to repair all the dams within two years!"
"If you just want money, it's easy to solve it. You can just go to Li Er and cheat him out of it."
"But we need manpower to mine and smelt iron, and we need manpower to build dams. But where can I find so many people?"
"Even if we still follow the method of Xiu Su Dao to reveal the servant's true surname, it still won't work!"
"It's not that there aren't that many people to hire me, it's just that the money spent is immeasurable."
"Even if I make Li Er bald, I'm afraid it won't be enough!"
Hearing this, His Majesty Li Er almost laughed out of excitement!
This is truly a surprise from heaven!
I never expected it to be smashed!
This guy Su Chen actually changed his gender. He doesn’t want money anymore, he wants manpower?
This is not a problem for him, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!
Wouldn't it be enough if he issued an imperial edict to summon the corvee?
Although the number of people required will be a bit large, building the dam is something that is beneficial to the people, and the people will definitely respond enthusiastically!
But Su Chen didn't know what he was thinking, and continued to worry: "You must alert Li Er to do this!"
"But I can't tell him!"
"If you directly tell him that there will be a flood in two years and ask him to build the dam, he will believe it!"
"What do you think we should do?"
Holding back the excitement in his heart, His Majesty Li Er said calmly: "If you are just worried about this matter, I have a way to help you solve it."
"oh?"
Su Chen looked at him in surprise and said, "What can you do?"
With a smile on his face, Li Er slowly uttered one word.
"wait!"
"wait?"
Su Chen wondered: "What are you waiting for?"
His Majesty Li Er said in a pretentious manner: "Did you know that your Hong Su, Su Dao, Su Salt, etc. have already spread a lot in Guanzhong?"
"I naturally know this."
Su Chen waved his hand and said: "Lao Li, tell me what you have to say, don't be too secretive!"
"Li Er is not a fool. He must have known about it. What's so strange about this?"
"Just listen to what I have to say."
His Majesty Li Er continued: "I got the news today that the Holy One will make you the Protector of the Country!"
"If anything starting with the word Su appears in the future, all states and counties must fully cooperate in promoting it!"
What?!
I was made a duke of the country?!
Hearing the news, Su Chen raised his eyebrows and was quite surprised!
He adds the word "Su" to things like sweet potatoes and promotes them. As time goes by, it will definitely cause a sensation.
Chaotang and Li Er will naturally also know.
He naturally understood this, but he never expected that Li Er would actually make him the Duke of the country!
He was quite cautious when launching these things.
Ever since I posted the notice, I have never shown up in person!
Therefore, the government will naturally not discover his true identity!
You don't even know who you are, so you can be named the Duke of the country?
"Are you sure this news is correct?" Su Chen asked in surprise.
"Of course."
His Majesty Li Er said: "Even if I don't tell you, you will know it after a while."
"In today's morning court, the Holy Emperor himself said this!"
"Could it be Li Er who discovered me?" Su Chen continued to ask.
"That's not true."
His Majesty Li Er shook his head and said: "The Holy One does not know your true identity."
"I will reward you purely based on your contribution to the Tang Dynasty."
After hearing this, Su Chen calmed down, as long as he was not discovered, he continued to say: "Li Er is so generous, and he directly made me a prince?"
"But where did this title of Lord Protector come from?"
