Chapter 198: Life slowly getting on the right track

"My dad said that he doesn't have much time left and wants to make some contribution to Datang before he leaves."

"Let me ask you, can you give him the right to eat the candidates, and he will provide food for the Beijing Examination candidates for free."

Du Miaoyan's expression became a bit sad and sad.

Du Ruhui's injury from the arrow was not serious, so it stands to reason that he would have been able to get out of bed and walk.

But several days have passed, and I am still lying in bed, unable to recover.

According to the imperial doctor, his health was too poor, and it got even worse after being hit by an arrow, so his recovery was slow.

"Of course you can."

"Uncle Du has no problem opening his mouth."

Fang Yuan has no opinion.

Some are just deeply impressed.

They are all seriously injured in bed, but they are still thinking about the future of the Tang Dynasty.

Isn’t the prime minister of the country talking about someone like Du Ruhui?

"Thank you."

Du Miaoyan sincerely thanks you.

His expression became even lower.

When Fang Yuan saw this, he sighed in his heart.

He loosened his hold on her hand, put his arm around her shoulders, and pulled her towards him.

Du Miaoyan's body suddenly stiffened, but soon softened, and her head rested on Fang Yuan's shoulder.

"Will anyone see me?"

Du Miaoyan blushed and whispered.

It’s too public, and there are many people coming and going at the county government office.

"They are all having a meeting inside and no one will see them."

Fang Yuan responded quietly.

My mind is slowly freed from the heaviness.

With Xiangyu in my arms, no matter how heavy the topic is, it will slowly fade away.

Just like this, Fang Yuan and Du Miaoyan made love for a while in the front yard of the county government office, and then sent her back.

Next, some powerful people came over and wanted to be responsible for the writing and ink of the Beijing Examination candidates.

Some Fang Yuan agreed to let them go back to prepare a plan, while others directly moved out Li Chengqian and Du Ruhui and sent them back.

Prince Li Chengqian and right servant She Du Ruhui have already taken over their power. Even if they don't take Fang Yuan seriously, they don't dare to say another word.

The next negotiation at the county government will be much simpler.

Because many tasks have been delegated, just supervise whether they are doing it reasonably.

For this purpose, Fang Yuan set up a special task force, with him as the team leader, focusing on those matters that were assigned.

On this day, Fang Yuan was busy until very late before returning to Fang Mansion for dinner.

After the meal, Juzi came to find Fang Yuan.

"Fang Yuan, we have chosen a land in Quchifang."

"But what materials should we use to build it? We can't transport cement from Liaozhou, right?"

The giant said with a headache.

In the past few days, he took Zhou Shi and others to inspect Quchifang.

Quchifang is full of mountains, rivers, trees and trees. The environment is very good and it fits their ideas. It is not difficult to choose the location.

But construction is a problem after site selection. Should we build a nine-story stargazing tower?

How to get cement for construction?

"What's the problem with transporting cement from Liaozhou?"

"Didn't we already open up channels when we were in Liaozhou and sell to various places?"

"You first ask people to bulldoze the land, and then I ask Liao Fengmao from Liaozhou to mobilize the security team to transport it, and then build a cement factory near Chang'an."

Fang Yuan has already thought of a plan.

It’s just that I have been really busy recently and have no time to rebuild the cement factory.

Now that the land has been selected and we can relax a little about the imperial examination, we can start building cement plants and so on.

In fact, Changsun Chong and Qin Huaiyu were both busy, tidying up their mansions, decorating them and getting ready to start making wine, etc.

"Is that so?"

"That's okay, then I'll start work here."

Juzi suddenly understood and said.

It turns out that Fang Yuan has already thought about it, so let’s get started.

This time, the nine-story star observation tower will be built to be even grander than that in Liaozhou.

Not only must the various organs of the Mohist family be condensed inside, but the exterior must also be indestructible.

"Let's expand the tenth floor this time."

Fang Yuan said suddenly.

In this era, the imperial power was not yet supreme, and the aristocratic families were even more powerful than the imperial power.

Therefore, the so-called Nine-Five-Number, the Nine-Number of Extremes, etc. have not yet become unique to the emperor and are relatively enlightened.

But as the imperial examinations are held, the nine-story star-gazing tower may become a target of attack in the future.

Therefore, for long-term considerations, the nine-story star observation tower was slightly changed to a ten-story star observation tower to avoid the number nine.

Anyway, although the original nine-story star observation building was called the ninth floor, it only had nine floors from the outside, but in fact it had a small tenth floor.

"Okay."

Juzi has no objection.

The tenth floor is where Fang Yuan controls the Mohist Academy.

It is necessary to expand the area to make it more comfortable for Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan can still live there in the future.

Then the two chatted about the details, and then Fang Yuan returned to the study to write a letter to Zhao Yingcai and Liao Fengmao from Liaozhou.

With Zhao Yingcai in Liaozhou, the factories in Liaozhou are not worried about being invaded. However, Liaozhou can only serve as branches, and the headquarters should be moved to Chang'an City.

Talents like Lu Xia and Liao Fengmao will gradually have to be transferred to Chang'an City, with Chang'an City as the center and radiating out in all directions.

After writing the letter, Fang Yuan was finally able to have a good rest.

The next day, Qin Huaiyu came to Fang Yuan alone and said that the wine making site had been renovated.

Fang Yuan asked Juzi and his team to design the high-strength wine device. After proposing distillation, they had a good plan.

This time, after Qin Huaiyu indicated that the place was ready, Fang Yuan immediately asked the giant to move the device out of the backyard and transport it to Qin Huaiyu's old residence.

Not long after, seven sets of distillation units were transported to Qin Huaiyu’s old house.

After Qin Huaiyu's renovations these days, the old house now looks a lot more vibrant.

However, Fang Yuan has never seen it before and has no comparison, but he still thinks it is pretty good.

"Fang Yuan, can this strange set of wine bottles be used to make high-quality wine?"

Qin Huaiyu asked curiously.

The sets of devices in front of me, which are larger than adults, look strange.

From the outside, everything looks dark and looks like something made of copper and iron.

"Don't underestimate these things. This set of things is collectively called a distillation device."

"Iron distillation flasks, simple condenser tubes, etc. are all important tools for making high-strength wine."

"How loyal are these people in your house? Don't reduce the method of making high-alcohol wine and spread it."

Fang Yuan explained the distillation device.

From the perspective of future generations, this distillation device is a very simple operation.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

But in this era, this device is definitely an epoch-making device that can purify many things.

In order to monopolize the high-alcohol business, it is necessary to conduct it secretly to reduce the possibility of leakage.
