Chapter 411

Yuchi Jingde and the others were talking about Cheng Yaojin. Cheng Yaojin was really not an ordinary person. Your Majesty dared not let him come back easily, but at the critical moment, Li Shimin felt that Cheng Yaojin was relying on him.

Moreover, Cheng Yaojin was quite loyal to Li Shimin, so Cheng Yaojin lived very comfortably below. His sons have been arranged now, and Cheng Yaojin was not worried at all. They were all done by Li Shimin himself.

"However, Cheng Yaojin is really going to come back next year. If he doesn't come back, it won't work!" Li Jing said while touching his beard.

"Senior Brother Yao, is he back? Then don't quarrel every day in the court?" Li Ji looked at Li Jing in confusion.

"I am preparing to resign from the position of General of the Right Martial Guard at the end of the year. I am old and can't do it anymore. It's better to hand it over to Yaojin. As for you, the Minister of War must be the Minister of War. Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to hand it over to Hou Junji. Now His Majesty of Military Power cannot hand it over to Hou Junji, so Yaojin still needs to come back." Li Jing sat there, laughed and said.

"Senior Brother Yao, this is fine after serving for several years, right?" Yuchi Jingde also looked at Li Jing in surprise and asked.

"No, I'm old, I really can't do it. I can't delay the work of Your Majesty, especially at the critical moments of these years, the left and right guards must control it. I am worried that I can't control it and that I will be taken advantage of by a slut at that time, and that will be a great crime.

So, Yao Jin still needs to come back. Yao Jin is back and can calm a lot of people. This other person doesn’t have the ability to do this!" Li Jing sat there and said to Yuchi Jingde.

Yuchi Jingde also nodded. He was the general of the Left Wu Guard. Now he attaches great importance to the promotion of the lieutenant. He must check the basics. As long as there are stains, he will not mention them.

It is even said that in the army that cleared out of the Zuo Wu Guard, the Zuo Wu Guard must ensure that His Majesty is loyal to His Majesty, the Li family, and the left and right Wu Guards protect the safety of the capital and protect the safety of the imperial city. It is no joke.

"Oh, okay, let him come back. If he comes back, those civil servants will be afraid. They will clamor in the court every day. Yao Jin is there. His Majesty wink and he will go over to fight those civil servants one-on-one." Li Ji nodded and said, Cheng Yaojin can do such a thing, but others can't do it!

"Sure, this time I am going to talk to Your Majesty about this matter. You must also consider whoever takes Yao Jin's position and give Your Majesty a suitable list! Don't let Hou Junji do this." Li Jing stared at Li Ji and continued.

"Don't worry, I definitely won't let Hou Junji rob this opportunity." Li Ji nodded and said.

"Well that's good, hey, I'm so old. From now on, I'll hide in the mansion and read books and tease those little kids. That's good! You have to come to my mansion from time to time, and Boping!" Li Jing said as he looked at Qin Huai.

"Nephew is here!" Qin Huaidao stood up and bowed.

"Sit down, this kid, I'm talking to you. What's the matter with you standing up? Sit down and say, Dezhuo, Dejian, I'll ask you. You kid, stare at them and don't let them cause any trouble!" Li Jing said to Qin Huaidao.

"Dejian and Dezhuo brothers are steady, and I still have to learn from them. Uncle, don't worry, if they do something wrong, our military brothers will definitely talk about him!" Qin Huaidao sat there, smiling and looking at Li Jing.

"Well, I'm relieved to this. You guys are very good!" Li Jing nodded with a smile when he heard this.

These kids are not chaotic and very steady. Although they will cause trouble, they will not cause any major disaster. If there is any problem, they will take action together, which makes them very satisfied.

After a while, Cheng Chuliang came in on duty.

"Hello uncle and uncle!" Cheng Chuliang came in and said with a smile.

"Is there something wrong?" Li Ji looked at Cheng Chuliang and asked.

"It's okay. Now that your Majesty and the aristocratic family are already in talks, we have been driven out. Hehe, are I here to see the uncles and uncles." Cheng Chuliang said as he looked at them with a smile.

"Come on, come and sit down!" Li Jing said with a smile to Cheng Chuliang.

"Hey!" Cheng Chuliang walked over with a smile, sat down, and Qin Huaidao poured him tea.

"This is really a big boss. I'm still a captain. It's time to go downstairs to experience it!" Li Jing said at Cheng Chuliang.

"Hehe, don't, I'm better in the capital. I can also experience it in the capital. There is no war now. If there is a war, I will definitely rush forward!" Cheng Chuliang said with a smile. He didn't want to leave the capital.

Now in Beijing, there are more opportunities. At least, they can buy a house business. Besides, with Qin Huaidao here, they are not worried about having no money. In addition, the veterans are still there, so they don’t have many opportunities.

Moreover, if they want to upgrade to the position of the old man there, they are not good enough. They really need to go to the battlefield to go for a while. In this way, they can only be promoted to a critical position by spending their lives to exchange for military merits.

"You kid, no one can fool you." Li Ji pointed at Cheng Chuliang and said.

"Hehe, uncles, those people from the aristocratic families come here today, but they don't have a good face. They all have a gloomy face. This time, they will definitely lose. I guess the Student Iron Workshop will definitely be lost. They are not willing to give up, but there is no way." Cheng Chuliang said to them with a smile.

Qin Huaidao sat there without saying anything. In fact, according to Qin Huaidao's original intention, he would rather get steel, but salt is very important and it is related to the people's livelihood. It would not be possible to get rid of it. I don't know that after His Majesty finished talking with the aristocratic family, he would not get rid of the pig iron. If he didn't get rid of it, it would be a pity.

"Boping, why don't you talk?" While the people were chatting, they found that Qin Huaidao was not talking, so they looked at Qin Huaidao and asked.

"Ah, oh, I was just thinking about something. Oh, I don't know if Your Majesty will be successful. I hope it can be successful. But it would be a pity if I didn't make pig iron. Pig iron steel is too effective!" Qin Huaidao said to them directly.

"Well, can you really make it?" Fang Xuanling stared at Qin Huaidao and asked.

"Yes, really, but I'm also worried about the revenge of the aristocratic family!" Qin Huaidao said to them with a wry smile.

"How is the output?" Fang Xuanling asked.

"How much do you want, I have. By then, there will definitely be endless pig iron and steel. I am still sure of this." Qin Huaidao looked at Fang Xuanling with great certainty and said.

"This!" Fang Xuanling was thinking about it when he heard Qin Huaidao say this.

"Then do it!" Li Ji's first reaction was to do it. The army needed a lot of pig iron, armor, weapons, building cities, and making armor. It all required a lot of pig iron, and pig iron was far from enough in the Tang Dynasty.

"How is it that simple? It depends on how Your Majesty negotiates with the aristocratic family. If the negotiations are reached, it will probably not be possible in the past few years." Li Jing said while touching his beard, Qin Huaidao nodded as well, and he was also worried about this.

"Hey, the aristocratic family is too big to lose." Li Ji also thought of this at this moment.

"Look, I may not be able to do it." Tang Jian sat there and said, "Qin Huaidao immediately stared at Tang Jian.

"The population of the Tang Dynasty is increasing very quickly now. Not to mention others, just talk about the Boping family. This kid is not concerned about it. If he cares about it, just don't give birth to a few children a year.

The same is true for the people's homes. Now I go to the village below. Which farm does not have a large number of children? In the future, they will have to open up land and start a family alone. These require a lot of pig iron. Since the Wude period, although there were wars in the Tang Dynasty, there were no great sacrifices in each battle.

Therefore, the population of the Tang Dynasty can be said to have more than doubled compared to the first year of Wude, but pig iron has not increased much. As long as pig iron is put into the market, it will soon be sold out.

Therefore, the demand for pig iron is not only the demand of the Tang army, but also the people's homes need a large amount of pig iron. If the aristocratic families still make it, it would be far from enough!" Tang Jian sat there, watching them and said,

Qin Huaidao also nodded. This is the truth. Just say that Qin Huaidao's fief is estimated to be 1,700 adults, but there are more than 3,500 underages, and two or three hundred adults every year.

The key is that those young people who have just gotten married have one after another in the past two years. They can raise them and have food, so they will have children.

"Whoever do you mean?" Li Ji looked at Tang Jian and asked.

"I don't care what Your Majesty thinks. If the agreement is completed, I will care about Your Majesty's request for pig iron. The same is true for your Ministry of War. Don't ask me, just ask Your Majesty directly. There is so much pig iron, it's impossible to give it to the people? If you don't give it to the people, how can the people farm?" Tang Jian looked at Li Ji and said, with a clear meaning.

If the agreement is completed, I will put pressure on Your Majesty. No matter who becomes the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, I will put pressure on Your Majesty. Pig iron is also related to people's livelihood, but it is not that direct.

"Well, that's the case!" Fang Xuanling said while touching his beard at this moment.

"It depends on how your Majesty talks to them. I guess your Majesty knows this situation, right?" Zhang Liang also said while wiping his beard.

"I must understand that the biggest reason for the outbreak of pig iron and salt this time is that the population has increased, or can it be based on the previous output?" Tang Jian said in a very affirmative tone. The others nodded.

"Duke Hu, Your Majesty is welcome!" Just as Qin Huaidao and the others were chatting, Wang En came in and greeted Qin Huaidao.

"Oh, okay, uncles, you guys sit here, I'll come when I go!" Qin Huaidao said as he stood up, bowed to them, and then followed Wang En out.

"The talk inside is not good, Your Majesty is angry!" Wang En said to Qin Huaidao in a low voice, and Qin Huaidao nodded gratefully.
