Emperor Gan Wu was furious: "What do you mean is that I have no brains?!"
"Father, do you think it was not done by Li Ji?"
Li Changfeng looked surprised. The next moment, he widened his eyes and said in disbelief: "Father, are you trying to cover up with Li Ji, right?"
"I……"
Before Emperor Gan Wu could answer, Li Changfeng showed a sad expression and whispered: "Well, this capital has no place for Erchen to establish himself. Erchen will return to Baishi City now!"
Emperor Gan Wu was both angry and angry!
If Li Changfeng hadn't kept talking about Baishicheng, he would have almost believed it.
Emperor Gan Wu didn't say nonsense, and directly destroyed Li Changfeng's hope: "Bastard, do you think I don't know what you are thinking? I want to go back to Baishi City, but there is no gate!"
Li Changfeng was distorted and said, "Whatever you think, Father, the capital is too dangerous anyway, my son wants to go back to Baishi City!"
Emperor Gan Wu sneered: "I said that I want to go back to Baishi City, but there is no gate!"
Li Changfeng did not give up and said with a smile: "Father, don't forget that before you went to Shangzhou, you agreed to a condition for your son to come true. You won't miss the count, right?"
Emperor Gan Wu glared: "How can I break my promise?"
"Okay!" Li Changfeng smiled and said, "The condition of his son is to return to Baishi City!"
Emperor Gan Wu nodded: "I agree!"
Li Changfeng was overjoyed: "Okay, I'm leaving there!"
After saying that, he turned around and left, but Emperor Gan Wu called him to stop.
"Slow down!"
"Father, don't you want to break your promise, right?"
Emperor Gan Wu snorted and said, "How could I break my promise? I promised you to go back to Baishi City, but did you say when will you let you go back?"
Li Changfeng was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed: "Father, are you a playboy!?"
Emperor Gan Wu smiled proudly: "You can't talk nonsense, who will play with you? Thirty years later, you want to go back to Baishi City, I won't stop you. Now... I'll stay in the capital obediently!"
"I--"
Li Changfeng looked at Emperor Gan Wu in amazement. He thought he was shameless enough, but he didn't expect that Emperor Gan Wu was even more shameless and actually played a text game with him.
He hasn't noticed the key yet.
After a while, he felt helpless and said: "You are cruel!"
It is rare to see this boy betrayed, Emperor Gan Wu was also very happy, but thinking that he had dealt with the flood in Shangzhou for several days and was assassinated, he felt a little sorry for this boy and didn't want to cheat him too hard. He said solemnly: "Don't worry, I will definitely find out clearly. If it was really done by Li Ji, I will never tolerate it!"
Li Changfeng said happily: "Okay, Father, you can do it."
He knew that it would be impossible for him to return to Baishi City.
Emperor Gan Wu did not continue to waste time on this topic and asked solemnly: "Did you explode Liyu Mountain with cannons?"
Li Changfeng rolled his eyes: "It's almost the same, it's just using gunpowder in the cannon for treatment. Its power is similar to that of the cannon, but it's much more accurate. Could it be that Erchen was chiseled open?"
Thinking that Li Changfeng had been assassinated three times after all, Emperor Gan Wu did not care about his attitude and said seriously: "That's good, it's time to get started with the artillery battalion and the musket battalion, and this matter will be left to you!"
Li Changfeng knew that Emperor Gan Wu had been thinking about this for a long time and could not refuse, so he nodded.
"good."
Seeing that he did not make any more trouble, Emperor Gan Wu smiled and said, "Also, have you always said that the artillery and musket technology are not mature enough? I will arrange for you to go to the Ministry of Works after a while, where you can have great skills. Many of them are just enough to show your strengths.”
However, Li Changfeng refused firmly: "In the case of serious bureaucratic style, the ministers will not waste time... Father, don't look at the ministers with this kind of eyes, it's not that the ministers don't want to be officials, Is it because I don’t trust those people from the Ministry of Industry, or the people from my research institute that are reliable and easy to use!”
Emperor Gan Wu asked in confusion: "What is bureaucracy?"
Li Changfeng decided to popularize advanced ideas for Emperor Gan Wu, and explained patiently: "Bureauntism is a style of being divorced from reality, alienating from the masses, bullying the weak and afraid of the strong, protecting each other, and corrupt officials."
As soon as this said, Emperor Gan Wu was stunned for a moment, then frowned and began to think.
Seeing this, Li Changfeng explained in detail: "Let's talk about the Ministry of Works that we are working hard. How many officials and those who really understand technology can have? Which one is not the Ministry of Works that has won the imperial examination and won the imperial examination? , Isn’t this out of reality?”
"Besides, they are separated from the masses, and those who are officials think they are superior to others. Who can really put down their figure and go to the people to understand their true thoughts?"
"As for bullying the weak and fearing the strong, protecting each other, and corruption, it's not to mention that Shangzhou's flooded treasury cannot provide disaster relief silver, but one hundred and sixteen taels a can of small imperial tea is in short supply, and their salary can afford these luxury Taste?"
As soon as this statement was made, Emperor Gan Wu's mind was shocked and he felt enlightened.
Especially the argument about being divorced from reality and being divorced from the masses made him suddenly realize, as if he had opened a new world in his heart.
He suddenly understood why the many policies he designated for benefiting the country and the Republic of China had achieved little effect.
There is a big reason for this, which is that it is influenced by bureaucratic style.
For a moment, Emperor Gan Wu's mind changed rapidly, and he had the idea of rectifying the officialdom, and even had the idea of reform.
Li Changfeng did not disturb Emperor Wu and allowed his father to brainstorm.
However, he did not have much hope for Emperor Gan Wu. After all, it was not easy to change the feudal system idea that lasted for thousands of years.
A moment later, Emperor Gan Wu came to his senses and looked at Li Changfeng. His eyes flashed with a brilliant color and exclaimed: "Good words! That's great! If you have such an opinion, I really admire you. You are a great sage in the world. Not an exaggeration!”
Li Changfeng felt like he was shooting himself in the foot, and he secretly blamed himself for saying so much, why did he do it casually?
Now that Emperor Gan Wu actually said such a high evaluation, it is even more impossible for him to return to Baishi City easily, so as not to be afraid of being a cow or a horse.
Thinking of this, Li Changfeng said helplessly: "The father praised him, but the sons are just talking nonsense, so they can't be taken seriously!"
"Nonsense?"
Emperor Gan Wu looked at Li Changfeng with great meaning, without saying much, nodded and said, "Okay, I agree! You can leave the task of R&D and improvement of artillery and firearms to your people without going to the Ministry of Works."
The Ministry of Works has many skilled craftsmen, but it is far behind the talents of Li Changfeng Research Institute.
Moreover, the forces in the Ministry of Works are complicated, so they are involved in the research of national heavy weapons such as artillery and firearms, and the risk of leaking secrets is very high.
The most important thing is that the bureaucratic remarks moved him and he didn't want Li Changfeng to waste his time in the Ministry of Works.
Emperor Gan Wu immediately issued an order: "I ordered the Ninth Prince to secretly form the artillery battalion and the musket battalion. The number of people in the two battalions... is tentatively set to one thousand!"
Li Changfeng was not in a hurry to take the order and said in a tone of no rejection: "It is OK to ask Erchen to form an artillery battalion and a musket battalion, but you must agree to Erchen's several conditions!"
His words shocked Gao Dali on the side.
Good guy, let me tell you about the conditions?
And in a tone that cannot be rejected?
This is too courageous!
Emperor Gan Wu said expressionlessly: "Say!"
Li Changfeng was not afraid at all and said with neither humility nor arrogant words: "Father, first of all, if you hand over the matters of the artillery battalion and the musket battalion to Erchen, you cannot let anyone else intervene. Erchen has the final say! ”
Hearing this, Emperor Gan Wu's expression became a little cold.
Seeing this, Li Changfeng's tone improved a lot and said with a very fast speed: "Father, don't look at Erchen with this kind of eyes. Let's talk about it in front of you. You don't want to be respectful. If you don't agree, you can If you let others do it, you will provide you with artillery and firearms, as if someone likes to do this job!"
Weapons such as artillery and firearms are too powerful and are a very terrifying force that any emperor will treat them with great caution.
Li Changfeng didn't want Emperor Gan Wu to be suspicious because of this incident. It would be better to make the words clear and make them clear.
If Emperor Gan Wu disagreed, he would be an arms dealer at ease and provide weapons and ammunition.
Anyway, no matter what, the most powerful weapon is always in his hands. Even if it is sold to Emperor Gan Wu, it is a bit worse.
Besides, he had already spent a lot of time in White Rock City with the addiction to training soldiers, and now he is not interested in such a hard-working thing.
If Emperor Gan Wu was willing to hand it over to others, he would not be able to ask for it.
Gao Dali, who was standing beside him, was frightened. He never expected that Li Changfeng would say this clearly.
He couldn't help but look at Emperor Gan Wu carefully.
Emperor Gan Wu's expression changed slightly, and he said in a indifferent tone: "Give me a reason!"
Li Changfeng explained: "Looking at the entire Dagan Dynasty, who knows muskets and cannons better than Erchen? Father, you must understand that any general in the army who is working hard now has no practical experience, only Erchen Yes! My son doesn't want some laymen to point fingers and command randomly!"
Hearing this, Emperor Gan Wu couldn't help but nodded secretly.
Not to mention others, even if he has seen artillery, he doesn't know how to train soldiers.
Li Changfeng continued: "Besides, Erchen has his own way of training soldiers, which is different from all the generals who are doing big. Erchen does not want to be interfered with by them."
Hearing this, Emperor Gan Wu said in surprise: "You can train soldiers?"
Li Changfeng nodded and said, "Of course, who do you think the soldiers in Baishi City gave the designated training plan?"
Emperor Gan Wu was overjoyed: "Okay! I agree!"
"It's good if you agree, I have another condition..."
"What? Do you have the conditions?!"
"Of course, you don't agree that you can let someone else do it!"
"explain!"
"The country must purchase muskets and cannons made by Erchen at market prices, and of course Erchen will not speak out..."
Before Li Changfeng finished speaking, he was interrupted by Emperor Gan Wu who was about to be suppressed and his anger: "Bastard, do you dare to ask me for money?!"
Li Changfeng has always been thinking about being an arms dealer, so he naturally would not make any concessions in this matter.
He said seriously: "Father, I have discussed with you before. You can't let your son pay all of them, right? Brothers are clear about the accounts! It takes money to make artillery and firearms and make technological improvements. Is it all the money? Let Erchen take it out? Can Erchen afford it? Do you think these things are so easy to make? If you don’t believe it, you can go to the factory to observe it then!"
"Besides, it's unreasonable that Lierchen can't get any benefits, right? If this kind of thing is put on your father, would you be happy?"
"Okay, even if I agreed today, do you think I can be sincere? Can I ensure that I am not slandering and slow down the speed?"
