Li Shimin didn't expect that Li Yin would really come up with something. According to Li Yin, a cow could carry four plows at the same time. Then, the efficiency of plowing would increase by four times.
"Is this Qu Yuanli really as good as you say?”
"Imperial Father, it's absolutely true. The thing has already been made, how can your son lie? Your son wants to hand this curved shaft plow over to the Ministry of Works to be forged and then distributed to the people. What does Imperial Father think?”
Li Shi Min looked at Li Yin meaningfully and asked,"You were the one who came up with that thing that fetched water a few days ago, right?”
"Yes, Father." Li Yin said.
Pa!
Li Shi Min slammed the table and said angrily,"The thing to fetch water was handed over to the Zhangsun Clan, and now this Qu Yuanli is to be handed over to the Ministry of Works. Do you think that I can't tolerate a capable prince?”
"Imperial Father, your son doesn't dare to think that way.”Li Yin said.
"Haha, you don't dare? So you still think so?”
"If Father insists on thinking so, then I can only accept it." Your son only wants to tell Imperial Father that I have no interest in that lofty position, but I also want to do something for the Great Tang, for the people of the Great Tang. Sometimes, I wish I wasn't a prince, but a commoner.”
Li Shi Min grabbed a scroll from the table and threw it at Li Yin." Little bastard, get lost. Don't annoy me in the future."”
The scroll fell to the ground and rolled away. It was an imperial edict!
Agricultural Supervisor? Supervisor?
The so-called supervisor was actually similar to the director of a certain department. He could be considered the head of the department.
Li Yin chuckled." I didn't expect Father to be prepared. Father, what grade is this farm equipment supervisor?" Also, Imperial Father, this new farming tool was made by a craftsman in my village. Should Imperial Father give it a reward?”
"Supervisor? Let's temporarily set it at Rank-7! This time, I'll give you the authority. The entire Farming and Equipment Supervisor is only responsible to me. You can arrange the personnel yourself.”Li Shi Min said.
Hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Yin suddenly had a bad feeling."Imperial Father, don't tell me that the supervisor doesn't exist yet!”
"How can it not exist? With my imperial edict, won't the agricultural equipment supervisor exist? However, you're the only supervisor now. Also, the yamen of the Ministry of Works has been a little nervous recently and can't move an empty yamen to you. You can choose the location of the yamen yourself.”Li Shi Min said.
"Where's the money? What about the most important thing, money? Father, I need money to hire people, right? You need money to build a yamen, right? Don't tell me you won't give me a single cent?”
"Didn't I send you five hundred taels a few days ago? Isn't it money?" Li Shi Min said with his eyes wide open.
The corner of Li Yin's mouth twitched. He thought that Li Shimin was finally generous for once. He didn't expect him to be so stingy.
Suddenly, Li Shimin remembered something and said to Wang De 'an,""Wang De 'an, you go down first. I have something important to tell the King of Liang.”
After Wang De 'an left, Li Yin's expression became a little more serious. But just when he thought that Li Shiming really wanted to talk to him about something important, Li Shiming suddenly said,"Um, don't you know how to write poems? Compose a song for me, cough cough, you understand the meaning.”
Li Yin immediately understood." Father, I'm currently having a headache over the matter of the Agricultural Machinery Supervisor. Sigh, 500 taels to establish a Agricultural Machinery Supervisor, I'm afraid I'll have to borrow money. How can I have any interest in poetry!”
Li Shi Min stared at him. F * ck, this was extortion! "I'll get the Ministry of Works to send you ten more craftsmen!"”
"Father, it's not just the problem of the craftsmen now. The main problem is that we don't have enough money!" Think about it, if the supervisor wanted to forge and test all kinds of farming tools, this place would not be enough.”
Li Shimin understood immediately." The land next to your manor belongs to the Zhangsun family, right? I will ask the Empress to talk to the Duke of Zhao and give you 50 Mu of land. Hmph, now, you should be in the mood for poetry, right?”
Although 50 Mu of land wasn't much, it was still worth more than 200 taels of silver. However, it also reflected that Li Shimin was indeed stingy. First, he gave away ten craftsmen, and now he gave away the land. He was being generous!
"I suddenly remembered the poem that Imperial Father wrote when he was drunk. It was majestic and heroic.”Li Yin said.
Li Shi Min smiled and said regretfully,"Unfortunately, I was drunk that time and even I forgot the poem I wrote. It's hard for Yin 'er to remember it.”
"Yin 'er will copy this poem and give it to Imperial Father.”
"Haha, good!"
Li Shimin personally grinding ink for Li Yin, this kind of treatment, probably no one else. The main reason was that Li Shimin was too embarrassed to ask others to come in and help, even Wang De 'an, who had been with him for more than ten years.
Li Yin wrote on the paper," The scenery of the north is frozen for thousands of miles, and the snow is drifting for thousands of miles…Unfortunately, Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty lost their literary talent. Cao Cao, Emperor Wu of the Wei Dynasty, was slightly inferior to the coquettish. A generation of heaven's pride, Ashina Jie Li, only knew how to shoot a big eagle with a bow…"
"Good, good!" As soon as he saw Li Yin write about his defeated opponent Ashina Jie Li, Li Shimin couldn't help but applaud.
"It's all in the past.”
"Good! Good! Good! Haha, the poems that I write have a different aura. Oh, right, what is this poem?”
"This is called Spring in Qin Garden. It was a poem that appeared two years ago. It was just that in the second verse,'Ashina Jie Li', there was one more word than the original Ci tablet, but it didn't matter. After all, it was a new Ci tablet.”
"Hmm, not bad. Now it's your turn to grind ink for zhen." Li Shimin picked up a pen and copied the poem again. Then, he burned the original copy written by Li Yin." I will inform the Duke of Qingguo about the fifty acres of land, but this poem…"
"Shi? What poem? Father, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand?”Li Yin pretended to be dumb.
Li Shimin was very satisfied with this poem, and he was even more satisfied with Li Yin's performance.
Li Yin left Li Shimin's place and met Gao Yang and Li Jing. He was dragged around by them for a while before leaving the palace. He sat in the luxurious carriage that sent Sun Chong back to the manor.
After returning to the manor, Li Yin called Wan Baichuan over and told him about the matter of the agricultural equipment supervisor. Then, he directly named Wan Baichuan as the junior supervisor of the agricultural equipment supervisor--Grade Nine!
Although he was a lowly official, he made Wan Baichuan feel grateful to Li Yin.
Naturally, Li Yin did not have the time to do something like the Agriculture and Tools Supervisor. He was a seventh-grade official, and he was bored. He directly threw the matter to Wan Baichuan and gave him fifty taels of silver to let him do it himself.
Seeing Li Yin's 'delegation' to him, Wan Baichuan felt a heavy responsibility…
After sending Wan Baichuan away, Li Yin was about to collect the dishes when he suddenly felt a chill on his neck. He had a bad feeling and probed,"Xiang 'er? Don't mess around." Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:011720194:50PM
