The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 793 Add fuel to the fire
At noon that day, Concubine Yang gave the pocket watch to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin was overjoyed.

He regarded the pocket watch as a treasure.

Listening to the ticking sound of the pocket watch, I feel very energetic in doing things.

He felt that it was not enough for him alone, so he said he must share it with everyone

For this reason, he also let more than a dozen important officials enter the Daming Palace together.

With this thing, you have to perform well.

Among the dozen or so officials, there were Fang Xuanling, Dai Zhou and others.

When they arrived, Li Shimin took out his pocket watch, but instead of showing it to everyone, he said:
"I got a thing, it's amazing, there are thousands of parts between the square and the circle! There is also glass on it, transparent, you must not guess what it is?"

Everyone is confused, what is that?
They can't figure it out.

There are so many things in this world, how could they guess it?
Li Shimin smiled proudly like a child.

It seems like everyone doesn't know.

So he said: "Everyone, what is this?"

Afterwards, he took out his pocket watch. Looking at everyone's expressions, he was not shocked.But another expression.

Because it was taken out for everyone to see.

Everyone could see clearly what was in his hand, it was a pocket watch.

So, everyone said the name of this thing in unison.

"It's a pocket watch!"

When talking about the pocket watch, there is not much envious expression.

Li Shimin was embarrassed now.

I wanted to show off, but now it seems impossible.

The scene became quiet.

I am most afraid of the sudden silence of the air.

Everyone seems to have expected something bad.

But they don't know what to say.

So you look at me, I look at you.

After a long time, Li Shimin asked, "How do you know this is a pocket watch?"

At this time Fang Xuanling took out a pocket watch from his pocket.

It's the same as Li Shimin's.

"It's a gift from the Shengtang Group... Yesterday, the ministers in the palace each had a pocket watch."

One piece for each minister in the government.

That's a lot.

This pocket watch is very fine, which shows that it can be mass-produced.

As such...

Now Li Shimin became depressed.

In other words, everyone had it yesterday, but I didn't.

What is this!

Why do you have it before yourself?
He is still the emperor!

But because his relationship with Li Yin is not good, there is nothing wrong with it.

All bitterness can only be swallowed in the stomach.

"Let me see!"

He took Fang Xuanling's pocket watch and tried to see a difference, but failed.

No matter how you look at it, the two pocket watches are the same.

Li Yin didn't give it to him first because he was the emperor.

Li Yin treats everyone equally.

But Li Shimin didn't give up, and then asked Dai Zhou next to him to take it out and have a look.

Sure enough, he had one too.

The three pocket watches are exactly the same.

It seems that I still got this thing after the ministers.

"When was this pocket watch produced? Is it on the market now?"

He was very curious.

Also asked the key points.

He wondered if everyone had it, and if that was the case, it wouldn't be interesting.

"It was produced yesterday. The Shengtang Group produced a large number of them yesterday. This is the first batch. The Sixth Prince gave us the pocket watch to let the ministers try it out. If there is anything wrong, please tell it! Then he sees Improve and start trial production of the second batch of pocket watches. I heard that the second batch will produce 1 yuan! Each piece is worth 100 taels of silver!"

Fang Xuanling said.

Having said that, Li Shimin seemed to feel better.

This can be regarded as a public test, to see how everyone responds, so as to improve the new pocket watch and produce a pocket watch that people like more.

As for the price, the initial price will not be low, but it will not be too high.

Therefore, Li Shimin's expression became more relaxed.

"That's it, thanks to that kid for thinking of such a thing."

After finishing, he put away his pocket watch and returned the other two pieces to Fang Xuanling and Dai Zhou.

"Okay, there is nothing else, you all retreat!"

Finally, Li Shimin said.

At this time, it is especially embarrassing.

There is no need for everyone to stay here all the time.

I don't want Cheng Yaojin's voice to come from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, I have something nice to give you!"

Ok?
All the ministers were puzzled.

Can Cheng Yaojin have any good things to give Li Shimin?
"Oh? What is it?"

When Li Shimin saw Cheng Yaojin appearing with a huge box in his hand, he asked.

"Here, in the box, take a look!"

"Let me see!"

Then Li Shimin opened the box and took a look.

Seeing this, the whole person's face changed drastically.

"Zhijie, what are you doing, just give this thing away?"

Cheng Yaojin was very puzzled.

"Your Majesty, this is the clock that I bought at a high price from the sixth prince, and now there is only one clock in the entire Tang Dynasty!"

Cheng Yaojin was very puzzled why Li Shimin was so angry.

"Okay, stand back and take your clock back!"

"His Majesty!"

"Go out, do you hear me!"

Li Shimin was furious.

Blast all the people out.

Cheng Yaojin was aggrieved.

Okay, why are you angry?

I kindly gave him something.

Then, everyone waited to be blasted out.

Cheng Yaojin was puzzled.

I asked Fang Xuanling.

"Old Fang, tell me, how is Your Majesty doing today?"

This made Fang Xuanling shake his head all the time.

"General Cheng, why do you want to send a bell?"

Cheng Yaojin listened.

Seems to be aware of something.

Send the clock?end...

Now things are big.

He didn't come to the meeting either.

It's no wonder that Li Yin must have told him that it's best not to give this thing away.

He thought it was too expensive, so he couldn't give it away.

I didn't expect it to be because of this.

What should I do?
Go back and talk to Li Shimin, otherwise you will definitely leave a bad impression!

"That's not what I meant, no, I have to talk to His Majesty!"

When you're done, turn around and go in.

But was pulled out by Fang Xuanling.

"I advise you to explain it another day. Explaining it now will undoubtedly add fuel to the fire and will only make you feel more uncomfortable!"

"Ah! No, Lao Fang, you must help me!"

"Okay, I'll explain it to you next time."

"That's work."

"What are you talking about!"

"By the way, Shengtang Group will have an event in eight days, shall we go together?"

Cheng Yaojin said so suddenly.

"Activity? What activity?"

"I don't know. The sixth prince said it. I overheard it. Don't tell others. Let's go and see it in eight days? There must be something good."

But none of the things produced by Shengtang Group is bad.

"It's good to be brave, so let's go together!"

At the same time, a team of strange costumes appeared in Chang'an Ximen.

After someone saw them, they entered the Daming Palace and reported to Li Shimin.
