Cheng Chubi quickly gave a flattering smile. "Uncle, don't worry, I won't say anything even if I beat my nephew to death."
He said that he wouldn't say it openly. I can give you some eye drops. Wait, old guy...
I saw Cheng Sanlang chatting with His Majesty with a playful smile.
Fang Xuanling, whose mouth was full of oil after eating and almost wanted to kick off his legs and lie down on the ground to rest, had a strange look on his face and secretly exchanged glances with Ma Zhou.
Li Shimin patted his belly, took a nap inelegantly, and glanced at Fang Xuanling and Ma Zhou.
"You two gentlemen, do you still have any questions about this castrated pig?"
Fang Xuanling's expression suddenly became solemn, she stroked her long beard and spoke in a deep voice.
"I no longer have it. This method of castrating pigs, I think, should be popularized as soon as possible so that all people in the world can benefit."
"I second the proposal. In addition, I hope Cheng Taichang will not forget the promise he made just now."
After Ma Zhou nodded in agreement, the second half of his sentence fell on Cheng Chubi.
Facing Cheng Chubi's somewhat puzzled gaze, Ma Zhou smiled.
"Cheng Taichang, please don't forget. If Cheng University makes some achievements in selecting and breeding improved seeds in the future, don't forget the people of the world..."
"..." When Cheng Chubi saw the smiling Ma Zhou, he always felt that this old driver was very dishonest.
But forget it, seeing as he is at least thinking about how to serve the country and the people.
In addition, there were Uncle Li and Prince Pai Gu Jing watching next to him, so he naturally wanted to show off his noble patriotic sentiments.
Cheng Chubi returned the salute to Ma Zhou and replied with an upright expression.
"This was originally what Cheng wanted to do. Naturally, I will never forget it. In order for ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty to have a meal, this is the goal of my efforts."
Li Chengqian looked at Cheng Chubi's upright and duty-bound face, and couldn't help but admire him.
Li Shimin twirled his long beard, secretly despising him. If only this boy was the same on the outside and his words and deeds were consistent.
Why would he regard the Imperial Medical Office as his daily place for playing cards and entertainment? But thinking about his head that can always burst out sparks of inspiration.
Forget it, as long as you can do good things for the country and the people from time to time, I won't bother to care about your cheating and cheating.
"I am very pleased that my nephew has such ambition. If you have made new contributions to the court and the people of the world, I cannot but express my gratitude."
"You are still young, and now at a young age, you are already Taichang Shaoqing. If you are promoted again, I am afraid you will inevitably cause disputes in the court."
Li Shimin glanced at Li Chengqian and couldn't help but smile at Cheng Chubi.
"However, in the East Palace, you are led by Prince Zuonei, but in the middle of the court, you are the young minister of Taichang Temple.
He can be regarded as a rare young talent with both civil and military skills in the court. In this case, the civil and military officials will be awarded an additional rank."
The Wensan officer before Cheng Chubi was Zhongdafu, but now he has become Taizhongdafu, and the Wusanguan has changed from General Mingwei to General Xuanwei.
Cheng Chubi nodded seriously and was about to salute when he saw Uncle Li speaking again.
"In addition, I will give you three thousand catties of gold, three thousand bolts of silk, and fifty hectares of fertile land.
These are your rewards for presenting to the court the method of raising castrated pigs and the method of making bellows..."
Three thousand kilograms of copper coins, plus three thousand pieces of silk, that's more than ten thousand pieces.
Cheng Chubi couldn't help but feel happy to be able to get such a huge sum of money from the stingy emperor.
After making a lot of money, Cheng's University not only doesn't have to spend money, but can even make a profit.
Cheng Chubi hurriedly pushed Uncle Li to the ground where he pushed the gold mountain to worship the jade pillar and fell down, flattering him sincerely.
"Thank you uncle for being so generous. My nephew will be more energetic in his work in the future."
"Okay, if you develop a good product that benefits the country and the people in the future, don't waste it like this now and contribute it to the court in time. Do you understand?"
"Yes, yes, uncle, don't worry, since you are so generous, my nephew will definitely work hard to invent and create, and he will definitely live up to his reward."
"..." The smile on Li Shimin's face froze slightly. You know, this guy is so excited because of money.
Fang Xuanling and others on the side lowered their heads to avoid losing their etiquette in front of His Majesty.
Li Chengqian also looked up at the sky helplessly, hmm... in the future, he should remember that he would be more willing to give Brother Chubi a financial reward.

"This pork is so delicious that I can hardly believe it..."
Ma Zhou rubbed his belly, looked at the leftovers on the table, smashed his mouth, and said to Li Shimin.
"But if it is to be promoted, it will definitely be very difficult. After all, I was very skeptical after hearing about it before.
I can’t be convinced until I taste the taste of this castrated pork with my own mouth.”
Hearing Ma Zhou's words, Li Shimin nodded in agreement.
"What you said makes sense. If you want the people to accept this thing, it will not be achieved overnight. You can only order officials from various states to preach more about the benefits and disadvantages of castrated pigs..."
After hearing this, Cheng Chubi, who continued to eat and drink, almost choked on a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs.
Li Ke saw his father's frown and muttered softly.
"Brother Chu Bi, please be quiet. We are discussing business."
Cheng Chubi quickly spat out the bones, winked at Li Ke and lowered his voice.
"Do you want to get rich?"
"Yes I do?"
"Then how about we take over the job of promoting the castrated pigs? Will your father pay for it?"
Li Ke's eyes immediately turned into square holes. "Brother Chu Bi, you are just trying to get money. You want money to help promote the court?"
"Nonsense, I provide ideas, manpower, and efforts, and I also get publicity. Doesn't this cost money?"
Cheng Chubi glared at Li Ke and whispered in a low voice.
Li Chengqian, who had been listening to the mutterings of these two guys with his ears open, couldn't help but poke his head over.
"Brother Chu Bi, do you have any good ideas?"
"Haha... Why do we need any good strategies? All we need is some micro-operations and some publicity.
I guarantee that within three to five days all the people in Chang'an will know the benefits of castrated pigs, and even more so the deliciousness of this pork."
Over there, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and Ma Zhou were worrying about the publicity and promotion of castrated pigs.
I heard a noise like a buzzing fly coming from my ears. When I turned my head, I saw Cheng Chubi gesticulating excitedly.
His two biological sons looked at each other in confusion and admiration. What happened to this boy?
Li Shimin coughed unhappily and shouted, "What are you three muttering about?"
Li Chengqian explained to his father with some embarrassment.
"Father, Brother Chu Bi said that he has a way to make the world know about the benefits of castrated pig farming and the delicious taste of castrated pigs in a short period of time."
Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and Ma Zhou's eyes all fell directly on Cheng Chubi.
Cheng Chubi glanced at Li Chengqian with a dark expression. Your Highness, I want to take the opportunity to make a fortune, okay?
Is it interesting that you exposed me in advance before this was even discussed?
