Li Zongyue and his wife didn't stay at the house for long. They left in a hurry just after lunch. In fact, they came specially to see Wang Can and Li You. They saw the young couple talking and laughing, especially Li You.
Their faces looked happy, so Li Zongyue and his wife felt relieved and left early so as not to disturb the young couple.
Without Li Zongyue and his wife, Li You was even more relaxed. Because with Li Zongyue and his wife, Li You was always a little restrained and felt unnatural. On the contrary, Wang Can had no influence at all.
Time passes day by day.
It's August in the blink of an eye.
The weather in August is a little cooler, and during this period, the imperial court has been opening warehouses to provide disaster relief, so the local people have recovered a little. However, the imperial court is not easy, and its power is limited, so it cannot be maintained for too long.
For a long time, the Tang Dynasty must have insufficient financial resources, so it needs food support from major aristocratic families.
On this day, outside the north gate of Chang'an City.
Carriages came slowly one after another, and in the first carriage at the front sat an old man.
It's the King's Talisman.
Wang Shenfu returned to the Wang family in Taiyuan and told the head of the Wang family what he saw and heard. Finally, the head of the Wang family agreed to provide food, but he had to obtain movable type printing technology, as well as pumpkin and sweet potato seeds to ensure advance planning.
The first step is the opportunity.
This is opportunity.
So Wang Shenfu was authorized by the head of the Wang family and came again.
The many carriages behind the King's Talisman are the principals of the major families headed by Qiwang of the fifth surname. Most of them are the heads of the major families, and a few of them have arranged for representatives to come.
The major families have already discussed and agreed to provide food, and the amount each family will give has been decided in advance, and one million stones of food has been escorted immediately.
Everything is ready.
It depends on what Wang Can says.
After Wang Shenfu and his party went straight into the city, all the food was rested outside Chang'an City, and everyone headed by Wang Shenfu gathered in the city. Everyone did not go to see Wang Can immediately, but asked Wang Can
The heads of the big family, headed by Shen Fu, went to the palace to meet Emperor Li Shimin.
When Wang Shenfu saw Li Shimin, he held his head high and said: "Your Majesty, you arranged for Wang Can to negotiate with us. Wang Can said before that if we give food, he will give food seeds, etc. Now. Now
, we have brought food. Please ask your majesty to arrange for the prime minister, Prime Minister Du, to accompany us to the Wang family and let Wang Can do the handover."
When Li Shimin heard this, he immediately became excited.
finally come.
In fact, if the family's food supplies are delayed for another month or two, Li Shimin will really be unable to bear it and will be at the end of his rope. Now it is finally here.
Li Shimin immediately arranged for people to call Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling, told Wang Shenfu and others the purpose of their visit, and then ordered: "You two and others will go to visit Wang Can and finalize the matter quickly."
"yes!"
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui answered simultaneously.
Both of them knew what Li Shimin meant. After all, they also knew the situation between the DPRK and China.
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui led the people out of the palace and went straight to the Wang family. When a large group of people arrived outside the Wang family's residence, the attendants went to knock on the door. When the concierge saw the visitor, he called everyone
Take a seat in the lobby.
Immediately, he went to notify Wang Can.
Not long after, Wang Can came out of the backyard. When he saw the people coming, he said: "Looking at the glowing faces of everyone, I guess you have already made plans and have something good going on. Prince, you are the leader.
Please just say it."
Wang Shenfu said: "Wang Can, we agree to your conditions. Not only that, all one million stones of grain have been delivered. You can give us the seeds and teach us how to plant them. Besides, what else?
The technology of printing Compendium of Materia Medica should also be taught to us."
Wang Can said: "There is nothing to say about what I promised. But right now, I can't give it to you."
"Why?"
Wang Shenfu immediately asked.
There was a hint of anger on his old face.
Because Wang Shenfu believed that Wang Can was teasing him and deliberately teasing Qi Wang, Wang Shenfu stood up and said sternly: "Wang Can, what do you mean? Do you mean to do this?"
Can you regret it?"
"of course not!"
Wang Can smiled and shook his head in reply.
For Wang Can, he would not admit what he said.
Wang Shenfu said: "So, what do you mean?"
Wang Can said: "Actually, what I mean is very simple, that is, planting this year will definitely not work. Of course, please don't worry, the court can't plant it here, because I need to breed and cultivate seeds on a large scale this year. By next year, the court and you five will
Anyone with the surname Qiwang will have pumpkins and sweet potatoes. This is what I want to say. As for the technology for printing the Compendium of Materia Medica, it is called movable type printing. I can leave it to you, no problem."
Wang Shenfu thought for a moment and said, "Okay, no problem."
At this point, they actually had no choice but to agree to Wang Can's conditions.
After all, Wang Can took the initiative.
As long as they get the seeds together with the imperial court, they will still have a head start after planting them.
Wang Can said: "Then Mr. Wang, when will the food be delivered to the court?"
Wang Shenfu said: "Wang Can, your words are unfounded. Since you agreed, you must make a contract and clearly state that you will give grain seeds next year. If you don't explain this clearly, you will
It definitely won’t work.”
"Can!"
Wang Can immediately arranged for someone to bring pens, ink, paper and inkstones.
He immediately wrote a contract.
Write down everything you promised.
After the contract was written, Wang Can pressed his fingerprint again, handed the letter in his hand to Wang Shenfu, and said: "Wang Shenfu, take a look at it, are there any problems?"
"no problem!"
After a cursory glance, Wang Shenfu put away the letter and said, "Wang Can, we will hand over the food today and the matter will be settled. I just hope you can keep your promise."
He said it again.
Wang Can said: "You should keep your promise, and you can rest assured. Prime Minister, Prime Minister Du, you two go and hand over the food. As for the movable type printing technology, you can also hand it over. In other respects, you don't need me."
"
"yes!"
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui also responded.
The two of them were also the mainstays of the court and could be regarded as real powerful officials. However, in front of Wang Can, even though their status was not simple, they did not have the slightest airs, and they could not take the initiative. Instead, they were somewhat passive.
The two people left with Wang Shenfu and his party, and Wang Can breathed a sigh of relief.
A lot of things happened in the short time he came to Chang'an.
There are a lot of things to do.
After everyone left, Yuan Tiangang walked out. With a bright smile on his face, Yuan Tiangang said: "Master Wang, I watched the sky last night and found that the Emperor Ziwei star was very bright, especially the luck of the Tang Dynasty.
It is manifest and the luck is prosperous. All of this is related to the prince. Although the prince is young, his methods are clever."
Wang Can said: "Mr. Yuan, if you speak directly in human language, I won't understand what you are saying, and I don't want to spend my time listening."
When Yuan Tiangang heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "In that case, I won't talk in circles."
Wang Can said: "Say it directly!"
Yuan Tiangang said in a deep voice: "During this period, I have carefully studied your situation. Before getting married, the prince had been unknown to the public. In fact, even if he married, he had never shown any ability.
After I met Li You, there were no changes. But after I fell into the water, suddenly there was a big change."
"This is a turning point."
"Everything, Prince Wang, starts from here."
"In fact, I asked carefully about the day when Prince Wang fell into the water. That was the day when I saw a comet coming from the sky. From then on, the Emperor Star became brighter, especially His Majesty's Ziwei Emperor Star."
"The luck of the Tang Dynasty is booming."
Yuan Tiangang said: "Today, the fortune of the Tang Dynasty has been as strong as the bright sun. And the people who brought about all these changes are the princes. Especially the words and deeds of the princes before and after are also different.
.”
Wang Can smiled and said: "Mr. Yuan really found out clearly!"
Yuan Tiangang said: "There is no way. If it is a deduction, I will be blocked by the secret, and I will not be able to advance at all. It will even backfire on myself. Therefore, I can only investigate more information and understand the situation of Prince Wang."
Wang Can said: "What Mr. Yuan said, there are indeed some ways. In fact, after I fell into the water and fell into coma, I once dreamed of an immortal. There was an immortal who claimed to be from Bai Yujing. As the saying goes, the White Jade Capital in the sky has five cities on the twelfth floor. The immortal touched my head.
, get hair and receive immortality. Immortals preach, that’s why I am today, and that’s why I have a new life.”
In order to avoid Yuan Tiangang's investigation, Wang Can simply made up Bai Yujing.
This is to avoid Yuan Tiangang's exploration.
Anyway, Yuan Tiangang couldn't find any reason.
After hearing this, Yuan Tiangang's face suddenly showed a look of shock, and he hurriedly agreed. He also recognized Wang Can's words in his heart, because in Yuan Tiangang's view, only immortals can reverse the situation of the Tang Dynasty and change the situation.
The current structure of the Tang Dynasty could make a timid scholar suddenly become so outstanding.
All these are the abilities of immortals.
Yuan Tiangang no longer had any doubts and said: "I just don't know. Prince Wang has been taught immortal magic by immortals. In addition to this food and life-saving elixirs, what else do you have? Is there any way to live forever?"
For Yuan Tiangang, he is also looking forward to the way to live forever. Although Yuan Tiangang is old, he actually looks pretty good now and has maintained all aspects of his physical functions. However, he will inevitably grow old after all.
Even though he practiced internal martial arts, in the end, he still couldn't stop himself from getting older.
