Chapter 842 Encountering the warrior family members on the road!

It's noon.

Li Shimin, Li Xuan and others came to Weinan County to decorate the most gorgeous hotpot restaurant.

Originally, hot pot restaurants were only opened in various populous states and cities in the Tang Dynasty, but because of Li Chengqian, one was also opened in Weinan County.

Weinan County Hot Pot Shop is three stories high. The third floor is also a private room, the second floor is a small partition, and the first floor is an open hall. A total of thirty tables can be seated.

As soon as Li Xuan and others sat down, the manager of the hotpot shop quickly came up with two stacks of menus.

After ordering the food, when the shopkeeper of the hotpot restaurant was about to leave, Li Xuan called to the shopkeeper.

"Wait a minute, shopkeeper, we will also arrange hot pot for my guards!"

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. Your Majesty's bodyguards are at least 600 people. This little guy's shop doesn't have that many tables at all!"

The shopkeeper of the hot pot shop said quickly with a grimace.

"No problem!"

Li Xuan waved his hand and said, "Your shop is being taken over by me today. No more diners are allowed in. All hot pots and iron pots will be cooked for me, and my guards will take turns eating with each other!"

The food in such a big shop should be enough for me and these guards to eat!"

"Your Majesty, do you want to make peace?"

Hearing this, the shopkeeper's face changed slightly. Ever since the hot pot restaurant opened, there were so many hot pot restaurants in the Tang Dynasty, but he had never seen anyone dare to book a place?

"Well, even if I don't reserve the place, and I have so many guards crowded into your shop, can there still be diners squeezed in?"

Li Xuan looked disdainful and glared at the shopkeeper.

"But Your Majesty, this shop belongs to His Highness the Prince of Jin. Since the door was opened, there has never been a precedent for it being reserved by anyone!"

The shopkeeper shuddered, but thinking about the backstage of his hot pot shop, he still said with a grimace.

"The King of Jin's Shop?"

Li Xuan sneered, "The King of Jin only occupies two percent of these hot pot restaurants. The rest are either owned by His Majesty, Duke Su Guo, Duke Wei, Prince Hejian and others. Don't you think I know this?"

"

"You are trying to frighten me by raising the banner of King Jin? I am afraid of King Jin? I am not giving you money to buy this shop for you, so why are you so stingy? Why don't you go down and tell the cook to give it to me as soon as possible?

King’s hotpot!”

"Zheng Fu, you also go down and invite the brothers to take their seats. Today, the king is treating us to a treat. Everyone is going to eat hot pot! However, we cannot delay our vigilance. Three hundred brothers will eat, and three hundred brothers will stand guard. After that, we will take turns..."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Zheng Fu responded quickly and directly dragged the hot pot shop owner down.

"Alas, this great king..."

The shopkeeper of the hot pot shop looked reluctant and was dragged all the way from the third floor to the second floor by Zheng Fu.

"General, this hot pot restaurant belongs to His Highness the King of Jin. The King cannot do this..."

Before he finished speaking, Zheng Fu took out a fish charm from his pocket.

After seeing the words "Zheng Fu, the Dianjun of the King of Jin's Tent" above, the owner of the hot pot shop seemed to have been strangled by the neck. His eyes were as big as copper bells and his face was full of disbelief.

After a long while, he trembled, pointed upstairs and said excitedly.

"This general, that king is Jin..."

"Shut up!"

Zheng Fu snorted coldly and suppressed the words of the hotpot shop owner.

"The king does not want to expose his identity this time!"

As he said that, Zheng Fu couldn't help but look at the hot pot shop owner with a strange look on his face, "You don't even recognize the king, how dare you keep using the king's name to scare other kings?"

The shopkeeper of the hot pot shop quickly apologized with a look of fear on his face: "It's the little man who is blind. The king didn't even recognize it in person..."

"Okay, okay, I see that you are not from Prince Jin's palace. Hurry up and tell the chef to prepare the hot pot ingredients and keep an eye on it yourself. Don't make any oversights, otherwise the king will not be able to save you!"

Zheng Fu said with a solemn expression.

"In addition, you are not allowed to reveal the identity of the king to anyone!"

"Yes, I will obey the general's order!"

The shopkeeper responded humbly and quickly ran to the kitchen on the first floor.

On the side, there were two personal guards who followed silently.

Seeing this, Zheng Fu ignored it.

Then, he ordered half of the bodyguards to start taking their seats.

The remaining half of the bodyguards were on guard everywhere.

There were some diners who originally wanted to eat hot pot in a hot pot restaurant, but they were surprised to be able to enter the door of the hot pot restaurant.

Looking around, the entire hotpot restaurant was already full of people, and they were all filled with soldiers.

Immediately, the diners turned around and left.

Third floor!

Seeing the situation below through the glass window, Li Shimin couldn't help but give Li Xuan a strange look.

"I didn't expect that Saburo has such a dandy side!"

"How can you be considered a dandy if you book your own shop? Besides, I'll give you the money!"

Li Xuan chuckled lightly and looked into the distance.

From a distance, he could see Li Chengqian and Wang Xuance, as well as the county captain and county magistrate from Weinan County, walking towards the hot pot restaurant.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry about Gao Ming's prestige in Weinan County!"

"If the prince of the Tang Dynasty cannot manage this small county well, it will be in vain for me to teach him so many years!"

Li Shimin hummed, but his eyes were full of smiles, obviously very satisfied with Li Chengqian's administration.

After a while.

Li Chengqian led a group of people into the hot pot shop.

Seeing that the entire hot pot restaurant was filled with soldiers, Li Chengqian, Wang Xuance and others smiled bitterly, their wife is really generous!

As for Liu Yuanchu and Liu Ding, they were surprised, then smiled and saluted Li Chengqian.

Then, he said goodbye and left knowingly.

In response, Li Chengqian did not hold back and walked directly up with Wang Xuance and others.

"My child has met Aye, met the Master! met all uncles!"

"I've met your majesty, I've met my master, I've met Aye..."

After some greetings, Li Chengqian, Wang Xuance and others stood aside respectfully.

"Have all the potholes been blown up?"

Li Shimin asked directly.

"Back in Aye, there are a total of sixty-seven villages. I blew up thirty-three holes that can be used to dig ditches. I used sixty-six bombs, and there are still thirty-four bombs left for backup!"

Li Chengqian respectfully reports.

"In such extremely cold weather, how long can these people dig a trench in one day? How many days will it take in total to dig this trench?"

Li Shimin nodded slightly and asked again.

"Reporting back to Aye, the people dug sixty steps of ditches in the morning, and it is expected that they can dig one hundred and twenty steps of ditches in one day! And the people's fields are far away from the Wei River, and the far ones can be up to ten miles, and the short ones are one

inside!"

Li Chengqian reported again: "In addition, therefore, I think it will take at least three months to dig all the ditches."

"It's just that the children are not satisfied with just dug ditches. They want to wait until next spring, when the weather is warm and the river water is about to thaw, to plaster all the ditches with cement. In this way, these ditches will not collapse and can be used for hundreds of years!"

"One hundred and twenty steps a day?"

Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others all had a flash of surprise in their eyes, and then looked at Li Chengqian with doubts on their faces.

"Gao Ming, I remember that in the past, when the weather was hot, the strong men of the common people dug ditches, and they could only dig more than a hundred steps a day. Why is it now that it is cold winter and the ground is stiff, but these common people are digging faster?"

"Reporting to Aye, my child doesn't understand such weird things!"

Li Chengqian looked amazed, "However, the young men in Weinan County, especially the young men, seem to be crazy and do not rest for a moment. The young men digging the trenches are getting tired, so the young men who are following behind them will

They take their place.

And the young men who were replaced did not rest. Instead, they climbed up and transported soil. The whole morning, these young men did not take a breath!"

Hearing this, Li Xuan frowned slightly, "The labor force is too big. You need to give instructions so that these young people can't work so hard, otherwise they will easily suffer from physical problems."

"Especially in this severe cold weather, you can't abuse your body like this. You have to find a few doctors to go to the construction site and keep an eye on the bodies of these young men at all times. They can work, but they can't work so hard, otherwise they will be like this
