Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 139 Life is hard

In the Tang Dynasty, the status of craftsmen was very humble, and they would never be able to be rich.

However, Su Cheng gave them a hope now, even if it was just a hope, they almost trembled with excitement, such an opportunity was unimaginable in their dreams.

This is not only a matter for them alone, but can change the fate of their family and the fate of their descendants.

Su Cheng didn't think his promise was outrageous. A great man once said that technology is the primary productive force.

If the cannons are really brought out, one can imagine how shocked Li Shimin will be to the civil and military officials. Will it be a problem if he asks Li Shimin for the title of a county boy?

"What's the principle of a firearm? To put it bluntly, it's a chemical reaction..." Su Cheng tried to speak as plainly as possible.

The craftsmen below all pricked up their ears. Although they didn't understand much, they didn't want to miss every word.

"The next direction for you to conquer is artillery! What does artillery look like? Let me tell you..."

Su Cheng directly took out the mother-child cannon. If he hadn't watched "The Little Marquis of the Ming Dynasty" under the difficult mountain, he would not have known what a mother-child cannon was.

"As the saying goes, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. Next, I will talk about some tools, which may be helpful to you..." Su Cheng was shocked, and the role of the science man finally came in handy.

It was a really dry day. When he left the firearms prison, Su Cheng felt that his voice was going to be hoarse.

The direction has been pointed out for these craftsmen, and it will be up to them next.

"Report to Your Majesty, Ankang County Duke please see me!"

"Announce him in!"

"Chen Sucheng pays homage to His Majesty!"

While looking at the memorial, Li Shimin said: "Su Cheng, I heard that you are idle in the mansion all day long. How are you doing with the errands I entrusted to you?"

Su Cheng said calmly: "Your Majesty, everything is under my control!"

Li Shimin put down the memorial and hummed: "Then tell me, how did you master it?"

"I have already decided on the name, and it will be called Datang Royal Construction Company. As long as the word "royal" is mentioned, the people will definitely flock to it. Moreover, I plan to build an office building at the most conspicuous place where the city gates enter and exit..." Su Cheng Eloquently introduced.

Originally, Li Shimin already knew that Su Cheng had been lazy at home, and was about to beat him up, but he didn't expect that Su Cheng would become a blockbuster if he didn't sing.

After listening to Su Cheng's narration, Li Shimin couldn't help but nodded and said: "I didn't expect you to be a genius in business!"

Su Cheng smiled reservedly and said, "I just dabbled a little bit!"

Li Shimin nodded and said: "Yes, your idea is good. When the high-rise building is completed, the reputation of cement will definitely spread among the people!"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "I'm here today to ask His Majesty for an inscription. If Your Majesty can personally inscribe a plaque for Datang Royal Construction Company, it will definitely be a hit next year!"

It turned out that he came to ask for a letter, and Li Shimin knew in his heart that his inscription would indeed help the development of state-owned enterprises.

So it's okay to write an inscription, not to mention, he has always felt that his white hand is considered a contemporary masterpiece, and it is his original intention to hang it out for the people to admire.

However, when Li Shimin's eyes fell on Su Cheng, he immediately changed his mind.

You kid came to beg me!

Li Shimin said: "How can my imperial pen be hung outside at will?"

Unexpectedly, Li Shimin became arrogant. Su Cheng turned his eyes and said with a smile: "What your majesty said is right, let me write it myself!"

Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this, what the hell?

Su Cheng wrote it himself?

Thinking of Su Cheng's words, Li Shimin's face turned pale.

Just writing the word Su Cheng and hanging it out is an insult to the court!

Li Shimin's face turned even paler as soon as he imagined the word "Royal" written by Su Cheng.

That is an insult to the royal family!

Chaozhong Chu Suiliang and Yu Shinan are both masters of calligraphy, Su Cheng, why do you have the face to say that you want to write it yourself?

Even if you ask Cheng Yaojin to write it, it is better than yours?

Li Shimin hurriedly said: "Forget it, forget it, let me write it, can you go out with your words?"

Su Cheng said cheerfully: "Thank you, Your Majesty, actually, I think my cursive script is pretty good, with wild and unruly script in it..."

Li Shimin almost burst out laughing, your cursive handwriting is good?I dare not say that I am good at cursive writing!

"Go away, let me send it to you when I finish writing it." Li Shimin interrupted angrily.

"Okay, I'm leaving!"

Su Cheng turned around and walked a few steps when Li Shimin suddenly said, "Su Cheng, wait a moment, the queen seems to have prepared a gift."

Su Cheng turned around and said happily: "Oh, it's still the empress who treats me well!"

Li Shimin was speechless after hearing this, did I treat you badly?Do other courtiers dare to say this in front of me?

Not long after, Empress Changsun arrived, and the maid behind her was holding a brocade box.

Su Cheng asked curiously and expectantly: "Ma'am, what is this?"

"Here is the copybook I prepared for you. After you go back, you must copy it carefully. You must write at least ten small characters every day. Every day, I will send someone to your house to collect it for inspection. I will also give him a ruler. If you haven't finished, I'll hit your hand!" Empress Changsun said with a gentle smile.

Su Cheng is not well. How many years have I graduated from elementary school, and you still let me practice calligraphy?

"Ma'am, actually, Chen's running script and regular script are really not very good..." Su Cheng said with a bitter face.

Before Su Cheng finished speaking, Li Shimin burst out laughing: "How can you call that word? Su Cheng, you are too thick-skinned. You have no brushwork, no rules, and a loose structure. Down, it's useless!"

Li Shimin, shut up!

You are going too far!

Why can't you recognize the words I wrote?

Su Cheng took a deep breath, forget it, for the sake of your daughter's beauty, I don't care about you.

"However, ma'am, my cursive writing has the essence of cursive script. I can't write it for your majesty." Su Cheng's chest thumped.

Empress Changsun just looked at Su Cheng's gentle smile, Su Cheng took the brocade box with a dejected head, opened it, and found that there was indeed a thick stack of copybooks inside.

"Who wrote this? It's not very good!" Su Cheng complained.

Empress Changsun couldn't help but smile when she heard that, Li Shimin raised his head and slowly uttered two words: "It's Zhen!"

It turned out to be a copybook written by Li Er himself. Su Cheng quickly said, "It doesn't look very good at first glance, but it's not bad if you look closely..."

"Go away, I get angry just looking at you!" Li Shimin waved his hand.

Su Cheng walked out of the Hall of Liangyi in desperation with the brocade box in his arms, and walked out of the palace with a sigh. The life of the Duke of the county is really difficult.
