Chapter 713 Money Is Not Enough (Part 1)
After Li Chengqian, who had thirty-five thousand stagnants from his own hands, left the Ganlu Palace, ran out of the palace again, and left Ye Mei alone in the prison, he felt a little worried, so it would be better to go over and take a look.
The guys who came from the 'Seventh Group' and 'Foots' were not very good-tempered. The habit of taking out a knife when he had a disagreement could not be changed at any time. Ye Mei was so mean, if someone really robbed those cannons, the guy's performance of fighting with others could reach 100%.
However, although he left this time, his mood was a big difference between the world and when he came in. Before, he was worried that the old man would send out the broken cannons in his hand. After seeing the old man, he not only assigned the cannons to him, but also got 35,000 knots from the old man.
This is an unexpected fortune, which for Li Chengqian, it is equivalent to solving his urgent needs. As for whether he is cheating on his father like this..., there are more than 30,000 yuan, so Comrade Li doesn't care whether he cheats on his father or not. Even if he cheats on his grandfather, he will do it.
With the idea of taking advantage of the situation, Li Chengqian felt that the long road from the palace that had been so long in the past seemed to be much shorter. The road that normally took a quarter of an hour to complete was actually completed by him in half a moment (pure feeling).
He retrieved his horse from Chi Jinwu at the gate of the palace, and after riding on it, Li Chengqian left to the general as a prisoner.
Although the palace gate is not far from being the general prison, Li Chengqian still thinks it is better to walk a few steps less. As for the prince, he still has to pretend when he should be a slap. It is still in the morning. The civil servants and big men in the court are on duty. As long as they don’t hit the gun, no one will care about him.
As for those generals, they would not come to care whether Li Chengqian was riding a horse in the imperial city. If they had time, they would rather have a few drinks from the old killers than to care about these bullshit things.
The time is not long, and the prison is already in sight. What made Li Chengqian feel a little relieved was that the expected scene of corpses and seas of blood did not appear.
Although there were many people gathered together to confront each other, from a distance, it was probably the Sixteen Guards who were confronting each other, which had nothing to do with Ye Mei.
When Li Chengqian arrived on a horse, he found that the 12 guards had sent people among the sixteen guards, but not many people came, and the team was just a small leader like a lieutenant, holding on to the purpose that he could not do or let others get it.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Ye Mei saw Li Chengqian, then left in front of the general's prison gate, walked to him and greeted him.
"I have seen Your Highness the Crown Prince!" The captain of the Twelve Guards was not a fool. When he heard Ye Mei's name to Li Chengqian, he bowed and bowed no matter who he knew or not.
"Go back and tell you the general that at noon five days later, Yingbin Lou Mansion will wait for them." Li Chengqian did not need to make things difficult for the little soldier, so he gave a casual order and entered the general as a prisoner accompanied by Ye Mei, ignoring whether they would leave.
"Captain, what should I do?" After a stalemate at the door for a while, a small soldier from the Right Wu Guard came to the captain who led the team and asked in a low voice.
"You ask me, who will I ask?" The captain rolled his eyes and stared at the other captains holding the same purpose and said, "What do you think?"
"I won't accompany you anymore, brothers, withdraw." The bastard of the Right Wuwei Guard is the same as the Cheng Fairy. I keep silent, but the shrewdness is exactly the same. Even though I know that Li Chengqian is inside, no one can move those cannons, it's better to retreat early, so that some people will be unhappy and will be worn in the future.
"Your Highness, all the soldiers and gangsters have retreated." After the soldiers surrounding them were in prison, Liu Min returned to the 'office' with a bitter face.
"All people have left, why are you worried? Go back and send all the cannons to me to Liusu. I want to see who can come to Liusu to go wild." Li Chengqian sat in Liu Min's position, putting his feet on the table, looking extremely comfortable.
"But your Highness, what if someone snatched it halfway?" Liu Min was frightened by the group of soldiers just now. Nearly a thousand people were blocked at the door when they woke up early in the morning. If it weren't for the other offices working normally, he would have thought that a mutiny had occurred.
"You can give it to anyone who robs me. Let me see how those guys who have taken action will tell me about this." Li Chengqian shook his head indifferently, disagreed with Liu Min's question.
Since the old man handed over the errands to him, the General of the Sixteen Guards would soon receive news. If he had to take action to rob him at this time, it would be like not holding him, the prince, in his eyes. Even if Lao Li was facing such a situation, he would not show mercy.
After all, if Lao Li didn't say anything, it was like a masterless thing, and he would rob it. However, after Lao Li had determined the way to deal with it, it would be like he was dissatisfied with His Majesty the emperor's will and was deceiving the emperor.
Although time was only one hour, the nature of things was completely different, so as long as the General of the Sixteen Guards was not a fool, he would never do such a thing.
"Also, how much gunpowder is there now?" After arranging the Zhenguan Cannon, Li Chengqian began to inquire about the preparation of supplies.
Liu Min lowered her head and calculated and replied: "The gunpowder now costs about 50,000 kilograms, but they are all raw materials and have not been uniformly prepared. If His Highness needs it, it can be prepared at any time."
Because of the danger of gunpowder and the sensation of moisture, the gunpowder now is stored in the form of raw materials, charcoal, sulfur, and saltpeter are classified into categories. When needed, they are raised from the warehouse, distributed into finished products, and distributed to the troops.
"Let's increase the production, and I'll give you another sum of money. Within three years, that kind of cannon will produce another thousand more guns." Li Li Chengqian is now rich and is not panicked. What he dared not agree to before is now said to be justified.
However, his wealthy and generous approach scared Old Man Liu and almost cried, "Your Highness, even if you kill me, I can't create a thousand cannons! That thing is too big. It takes only five cannons in a month, only sixty cannons a year, and one thousand cannons in three years is simply impossible to complete!"
Li Chengqian took his foot off the table, sat upright and said coldly: "If there is no one, go to recruit people. If there is no equipment, go to build a factory. No matter what method you use, three years later, I will see a thousand Zhenguan cannons, otherwise I will stuff you into the barrel and blast you out."
