Chapter 1973 The Matter of Seeds
Emperor Wen Yuan put down the cup in his hand, and was a little curious about what Lao Hengjuu was holding in his hand. Like rocks?
And also pulled several carriage stones back.
Sure enough, Emperor Wen Yuan also knew about this.
In this capital, who has the most eyes and ears?
If he said it was number two, no one would dare to call it number one.
Lao Hengju put the stone in his hand on the table, and then pushed it towards Emperor Wen Yuan, you can see for yourself.
Emperor Wen Yuan stretched out his hand and took it too.
There is no difference between the tentacles of the stone, except for the temperature of the brand, that is, the stone, it is an ordinary stone.
He put the stone on the table again.
"What's so special about this stone?"
"Well," Lao Hengjuan took the stone in his hand, "it's a bit special."
Emperor Wen Yuan was waiting, of course listening intently. He also wanted to know what was the difference between this stone and it could be pulled back by Lao Hengju with a carriage.
Lao Hengju continued to play with the stone in his hand, and then clenched the stone tightly.
"It was dug out from Lou's house."
"Oh……"
Emperor Wen Yuan also looked very interested.
What are the Lou family doing with these stones?
"Use it as a door."
Luo Hengju raised his head and looked directly into Emperor Wen Yuan's eyes, and Emperor Wen Yuan was also abruptly directed by him, and he felt guilty, so he couldn't help but touch his nose.
Luo Hengju looked back again, reached out and lightly picked up the teacup on the table, put it in his hand, but didn't take a sip.
Really, this emperor's heart is also unpredictable.
In fact, even if Emperor Wen Yuan didn't ask, he would have said it.
"My mother-in-law left something behind."
"kindness."
Emperor Wen Yuan laughed again, but this smile seemed to have some embarrassment. He might have wanted to say something, but he found that some words, or not to say, were guilty of conscience.
just listen
Just remember.
Just know.
"The ancestors of the Lou family have collected some books and calligraphy and painting," Luo Hengju said with a slight drooping eyelashes.
"These are much more valuable than those gold and silver things."
Gold and silver are valuable, but these books are priceless, especially those who heal people and Buddhist scriptures.
It's good to have gold and silver, but sometimes, no matter how much gold and silver, you can't buy these books back.
The Lou family ancestors were actually much smarter than they thought.
Not much wealth left.
Rather, he left something like this to his descendants.
Gold and silver are solid, but easy to get and hard to keep.
If one does not get it right, it may be in danger.
But these things are not.
"It's good stuff."
Emperor Wen Yuan laughed when he heard that it was not gold and silver jewelry, and of course he was relieved.
"And this..."
Lao Hengju pushed the stone towards Emperor Wen Yuan again.
"Not a stone."
But how Emperor Wen Yuan looked left and right, it was just a stone.
No matter what you say today
It's all stone.
"You could also say it's a stone."
Luo Hengju knew at a glance, what was Emperor Wen Yuan thinking?
"This is a black iron stone."
The three words Xuan Tieshi also made Emperor Wen Yuan stunned for a moment, and then he quickly picked up the stone again. As a prince, he naturally reads the Book of Heaven and must have certain knowledge.
As for Xuan Tieshi, Emperor Wen Yuan would not be unfamiliar with it.
Black iron is a good thing for casting magic weapons, and it can be made into a good sword.
"That stone gate is not small, and I have pulled a few boxes, so I am going to send all these to the weapons department, make some weapons, and send them to the army."
"Do you want to be holy?"
Lao Heng asked about Emperor Wen Yuan, the black iron is rare, just one piece is already available but not available, not to mention a heavy stone gate.
And the weapons made of black iron are not comparable to ordinary iron, even the refined iron made by melting iron is not a lot worse.
Although the quality of the black iron was not very good, the forged weapons were definitely better than ordinary swords.
"It is necessary."
Emperor Wen Yuan clenched the black iron stone in his hand. He was a man. Although he sat in this position, he had the idea of a strong man in his heart. How could a strong man in his own country not belong to him? of a good sword.
When it is done, it is also a gift to the saint.
Lao Heng was sipping the tea in the cup lightly, and Emperor Wen Yuan also had a relaxed look, which also let him know that this matter was here, and it was just like that.
Of course, for some things, Emperor Wen Yuan may not completely believe him, he will believe what he has found out.
Then let him check.
Is he not afraid of being checked by others?
This is a fact, even if you investigate it, it is still a fact.
If there is, there is, and if there is no, there is no.
It's impossible to just make up some things for him that are non-existent things?
Emperor Wen Yuan looked at the stone in his hand again, and his expression also had some expectations. Of course, he also longed for the weapons that Xuan Tie could create.
He put the black iron down, what did he think of?
Coincidentally, he was also taking advantage of Lao Heng's consideration. He still had a lot of things to discuss with him.
This matter has bothered him for a long time. He has been discussing with the ministers for several days, but still has not come up with a good solution.
"Cousin Huang, I have something to discuss with you."
And he is also serious voice.
Now they're going to get down to business.
Lao Hengxuan clenched the cup in his hand, and then put it aside, he gently smoothed the corner of his clothes, what did the sage say?
Emperor Wen Yuan was a little embarrassed at this time.
But as an emperor, in addition to having a certain amount of courage, of course, you must also have a very thick skin. Otherwise, how could it be possible to face those civil and military officials, and how could there be nothing to squeeze a lot.
"Cousin Huang, we don't have many seeds for spring sowing. If we don't have any seeds in the fields, then how can we still make food grow out of the fields?"
"What's your law?"
Lao Heng asked Emperor Wen Yuan, he should have thought of a way.
Emperor Wen Yuan shook his head, "There is no way."
"Buy it with money."
That's the only suggestion Lu Hengju could give him.
"Ugh……"
Emperor Wen Yuan sighed lightly, "What I negotiated with all the ministers is this method, which is about buying seeds. I want to let Brother Emperor go in person."
Where to buy, how to buy, how much money to spend? These things seem to be simple, but in fact, there are too many doorways.
And in the court of Nuoda, apart from the consideration, he really doesn't know who can send it, who can take on this great responsibility?
Lao Hengju has always liked to travel abroad. He has done some research on various places, so he knows a thing or two about what seeds to buy and how much to buy.
