Chapter seven hundred and eighty eighth tin-wrapped crab
Wei Jiu didn't eat the crab at all, and the dozen officials around the table didn't want to catch their hearts. The rice field crabs that I was eager to watch were finally implemented, and there was a problem that a crab would escape.
This may not be a trouble in the era of technology, but in this period, this is a huge trouble.
It is OK to build a fence, but the lower part needs to be sealed. Building a wall is definitely useless, and linen is not very useful. If silk is used, it will be too expensive. Some of the gains are not worth the cost.
Everyone was thinking about this question, and Chu Suiliang suddenly spoke.
"How about using glazed glass?"
Fang Xuanling shook his head.
"The price of glass is too high, even higher than silk, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford."
After hearing this, Chu Suiliang looked at Wei Jiu. His eyes were so bad that Wei Jiu gritted his teeth and roared at Chu Suiliang.
"If you dare to say that I will give it to you for free, I will dare to break your teeth now."
Chu Suiliang took a deep breath and told himself not to be angry. He could not scold him even if he could. If he could, he would hide. At this time, Yang Jia and Hongli came back from shopping. Yang Jia was holding a box of gouache in his hand, and the box was very delicate.
"Wei Jiu, you see, the gouache is now made of iron boxes. I am no longer worried about being squeezed and crushed. Should you change the perfume from Baiyu Palace to an iron box?"
iron?
The eyes of the officials lit up at the same time. The first person to be affected was the governor of Hangzhou. He stood up and ran away without caring about etiquette. Chu Suiliang and Yuchi Gong then stood up to prepare. When Wei Jiu got up, Li Er pressed his shoulders down.
Yang Jia's sudden appearance inspired Wei Jiu and others, yes! You can use iron sheet. The cost of iron sheet is much lower than that of glass and silk. It is more common. If polished smoothly, it will be better than that of glass and silk.
Li Er pointed to the chair on the table at Yang Jia.
"Sit down, you haven't even started to eat. You have to restrain yourself in the future. You can look cute in front of your family, but you will inevitably think that you, Princess Wu, have made a bit incompetent. Let's have a meal. This is the crab that I and the others have caught in person."
Yang Jia was a little flattered. It was not until Li Er put the little crab in her bowl that Yang Jia came to her senses and thanked her.
Wei Jiu tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't fall asleep, waiting for dawn in pain. As soon as the first rooster crow sounded, Wei Jiu got up and put on his clothes and ran out the door, saying he didn't care and didn't worry anymore, but he still couldn't help his heart. Maybe Wei Jiu didn't allow him to fail.
When he walked out of the yard, he found that Li Er was already dressed neatly waiting for him.
Wei Jiu took out the hot goat milk that Qiao Hongli had prepared for him in his arms and handed it to Li Er, and asked softly.
"Didn't sleep?"
Li Er glanced at the goat's milk and shook his head.
"I drank it and slept for two hours. I was thinking about the rice fields in my heart. I couldn't sleep well. Now I went over and saw that they had been tired for a night. Don't bother them."
"Okay, I'll prepare the carriage, and you can help me with the bottle."
"Ride your horse, the carriage is too slow."
Li Er was quite impatient, and Wei Jiu happened to be so. When they arrived at the rice fields, the Hangzhou governor and others had already taken the soldiers to surround a rice field with iron. When Wei Jiu got off the horse, the governor was pouring crabs into the rice fields.
Cheng Yaojin, who had been busy all night, asked Wei Jiu how many crabs he wanted to pour, and Wei Jiu shook his head.
"I'm not sure, I haven't raised it either. You have to ask Fang Xuanling. He has been here for a long time. He should have found out the period of crab breeding and some methods for breeding. I don't know much about the specifics, and my niece is very clear about it."
Cheng Yaojin whispered.
"Huanhuan? This girl just likes to eat it, right? She really couldn't climb out by putting the crab in an iron bucket last night. I just don't know if there will be accidents after too many crabs."
"It shouldn't be. Crabs are not humans, they can't stack arhats."
The two looked at each other and smiled. Now they have been sure that the crabs will not run out. All they have left is to see if they will die. This time is long and boring.
In the afternoon! When Wei Jiu learned that Qi Zheng, who was in need of iron, sent a large amount of supplies, Wei Jiu and others discussed the matter of Slender Horse in Hangzhou with the merchants. Qi Zheng told Wei Jiu that Slender Horse's business was destroyed and that it was King Hejian who took people to investigate.
Made by Chongyi.
It was for this matter that day that the brothers had a tacit understanding that others envied.
After observing for half a month, Wei Jiu felt relieved that there was no large number of deaths in the crabs. The rest was to expand and let the crabs flow out of the reproduction position. Wei Jiu didn't need to worry about these things.
During this period, Wei Jiu got news that Yin Fei left Hangzhou to meet Li You. This was the privilege given to her by Li Er. When the matter in Hangzhou was over, he went to Yangzhou and was about to return to Chang'an.
After walking around the Tang Dynasty for a long time, Li Er felt a little tired.
*******
In Chang'an, Li Chengqian and Li Ke summoned Princess Gaoyang in the Tai Chi Palace. Li Ke came back specifically for this matter and told Li Chengqian that this was what his father told him.
Whether it was the father's explanation or Li Ke's statement, Li Chengqian would not allow such a thing to happen.
Gao Yang came slowly, and when he saw Li Chengqian, he didn't salute and asked indifferently what happened. Her relationship with Li Chengqian was very bad, and her age gap was very big, and Li Chengqian was competing with Li Zhi again.
Li Ke frowned when he was about to speak, and was stopped by Li Chengqian, who looked at Gao Yang and asked softly.
"Seventeenth sister, the emperor wants to ask you some things. If you answer truthfully, the emperor will not punish you and scold you."
Li Chengqian's voice was as gentle as possible, but Gao Yang had no intention of repentance at all. He did not speak but nodded. Li Ke's brows became tighter and tighter, and Li Chengqian asked again.
"You know about human trafficking in Hangzhou, including maids and **."
"I know, the emperor brother wants to ask why he just spoke directly, why should he hide it? Hangzhou's business is indeed done by the emperor sister, and it is sold only by the families of some criminals. The emperor brother thinks Huang Mei did something wrong? Which law does not allow it?"
Li Chengqian frowned and spoke in a deep voice.
"The criminal ministers will be punished by their father. How can you sell them without authorization? In recent years, no criminal ministers have committed crimes in the Tang Dynasty. Where did you come after them? There is really a surname Nalan among the criminal ministers?"
Gao Yang sneered.
"Is the emperor's brother asking me? I am the princess of the Tang Dynasty. If they are disrespectful to me, they are guilty. Since they are guilty, why should I use my father to depose me? The emperor's brother should still care about national affairs so that he will not expel you from Chang'an again when his father returns."
Li Chengqian's forehead was full of blue veins, like pythons entrenched on his forehead, and he was out of reach.
At this time, Li Ke got up and walked forward, slapped Gao Yang in the face.
"Is this how my father educates you? He is so rude to his brother? Your business has been destroyed by his brother. If you heard that you opened a brothel, sold a maid, saw one for your brother, demolish one, and get out."
Gao Yang covered his face and looked at Li Chengqian and Li Ke, gritting his teeth and sneering.
"You will regret it."
