Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Chapter 1436: The Great Change of the Japanese Kingdom!
In this debate about the admission of female students to the Yanhuang Academy of Medicine, Li Zexuan won with a very weak advantage.
The main reason for the victory is that Li Zexuan has done a great job today, and the precedent of the Imperial Medical Office is the precedent. As long as Yanhuang Academy separates the medical school, it is basically equivalent to the second imperial physician. It’s just that the imperial medical office of the imperial court serves the court, and his "imperial medical office" serves the people!
After Li Er announced in front of the civil and military officials that Yanhuang Academy of Medicine could enroll female students, he announced that he would withdraw from the court.
The civil and military officials who were already hungry for a long time hurriedly withdrew from the Taiji Hall one by one, and went back to their respective houses.
"Hou Yong'an, have you thought about it, are you really going to join the Xuanjia Army?"
When Wei Zheng passed by Li Zexuan, he suddenly asked.
Li Zexuan paused and nodded: "That's right! Benhou has already decided! The grassland warfare requires cavalry. If the Xuanjia Army can be turned into an invincible force, our chances of winning in the future war with the Turks It will be much bigger!"
Wei Zheng heard that, still felt that Li Zexuan was a little too taken for granted, he shook his head, sighed deeply, and said:
"Oh! You still think too simple! The battlefield situation is ever-changing and intricate, but it is not so easy to deal with! You are full of talents and should have devoted themselves to teaching and educating people, but now you join the Xuanjia Army as a member of the army. It's a pity!"
After that, Old Wei sighed and left with his hand!
Li Zexuan wanted to refute, but Wei Zheng has gone far, but now Wei Zheng's attitude towards him is a bit strange. It feels like a sympathy between heroes, which makes him feel a little puzzled. Secretly said: "When did Wei Zheng start to treat me so well~?"
"Hey! Xiaoxuan, don't listen to Wei Xuancheng's nonsense~!"
While thinking, Cheng Yaojin’s laughter suddenly came from behind. Old Cheng walked quickly to Li Zexuan’s side and said, “Wei Xuancheng’s old stubbornness just wants to keep you in the court and promote culture and education. That kind of upright civil servant with a history, but Xiaoxuan, your martial arts and strategy, wouldn't it be even more pity that you didn't use it to help me calm the Quartet?
Alas, it's a pity that your majesty didn't arrange for you to be in the old man's Zuowei camp, but that period of Zhixuan's Xuanjia army is also good, it is a good place for experience, Xiaoxuan, you will definitely not regret it after you go! "
Lao Cheng has always had high hopes for Li Zexuan in military affairs, but Li Zexuan didn’t want to join the army at first, and with the fact that the old Li’s family is such a single seedling, Cheng Yaojin can only give up. Now, under Li Er’s promotion, Li Zexuan finally entered the army, Lao Cheng was happy in his heart!
After all, in his opinion, where is it easier to go to battle to kill the enemy in the promotion of science, education, and cultural affairs?
Li Zexuan heard the words and smiled slightly and said: "My nephew understands! As the so-called man's passion is, when you are in the battlefield, serving the country is more than a way to promote culture and education. Going to kill the enemy and expand the territory can also be regarded as serving the country!"
"Haha! Xiaoxuan is right! But you are both civil and military. It's a special situation. It's best not to fall behind in civil affairs and military affairs!"
Qin Qiong didn't know when he was stuck behind the two of them, at this time he laughed.
He sees the problem more comprehensively and far-reachingly than Cheng Yaojin. He knows that Yanhuang Academy is likely to become a strong foundation for Li Zexuan to stand in the Tang Dynasty, so he thinks that Li Zexuan should not give up Yanhuang while joining the army. The academy’s career, after all, has been based on military and culture since ancient times. Once the world is completely settled down, the role of military commanders in the court will become smaller and smaller. At that time, culture and education were king!
"Uncle Qin said that my nephew did indeed plan that way!"
Li Zexuan nodded and responded.
"Hmm! So the best!"
Several people left the palace and went home separately.
Because the primary task of Li Zexuan’s entry into the Xuanjia Army this time is to allow all the soldiers of the Xuanjia Army to adapt to the new equipment and to adapt the tactics suitable for the new equipment, but now the new equipment needed by the Xuanjia Army is only made A few sets of samples are still far from the time of large-scale equipment, so Li Zexuan does not need to rush to the military camp to report and be on duty now!
After removing the plate armor and horses and handing them to Pang Feiji, Li Zexuan directly hit the horse and headed towards the east gate of Chang'an City.
However, when he entered the city in the morning, he was wearing a plate armor but he was recognized by many people. So when walking on the street, many people are like visiting some strange species, and their eyes do not blink. Staring at Li Zexuan fiercely, Li Zexuan was seen as uncomfortable, so he speeded up his horse quickly, wanting to run out of Chang'an City quickly.
"Call~!"
"Boss Lin~?"
As he approached the gate of Yanxing, Li Zexuan suddenly looked through the window of a carriage next to him and saw that there was an acquaintance sitting inside, so he stopped and said hello.
Yes, this person is Lin Wenyuan, the first member of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce.
Li Zexuan still remembers in his mind that Lin Hao, Lin Wenyuan's son, called him a master in order to go to Yunshan to watch the fireworks in order to fool him!
"Master Hou~? You...you just went to the morning court, right? Lin is still planning to visit you in Yunshan~!"
Lin Wenyuan was surprised when he heard the sound, and quickly asked the groom to stop the carriage, lift the curtain, jump out of the carriage, and arched his hands to Li Zexuan.
As everyone knows, although Li Zexuan is a prince of the country, he did not go to the early court very much, and since the Yanhuang Academy was built last year, Li Zexuan has not lived in Chang'an very much, so after seeing the person outside the car is really Li Zexuan, Lin Wenyuan I was still a little surprised.
"Huh? Mr. Lin is looking for me for something?"
Li Zexuan's heart moved, curiously said.
Lin Wenyuan was a little embarrassed and said: "It's a bit of a trivial matter, but now the weather is hot. If you don't hate Master Hou, please move to the car and tell me that Lin will go to Lantian County to visit Boss Cao at some point!" /
After Lantian County issued a series of preferential policies for merchants, Cao Wendong moved his family to Lantian County, so Lin Wenyuan now has to go to Lantian County if he wants to see Cao Wendong!
Li Zexuan pondered for a moment and nodded in response: "Okay! Then let's go to Lantian County together!"
"Master Hou please!"
Lin Wenyuan said with joy.
Li Zexuan smiled, did not refuse, he turned around and handed Dabai to Pang Feiji, and went straight to the Lin family's carriage.
As one of the first members of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce, Lin Wenyuan's carriage is naturally extremely luxurious. This is a "special edition" "Don't Touch Me" carriage customized by Qiquge Workshop. Compared with other ordinary "Don't Touch Me" carriages. "Touch me", Lin Wenyuan's carriage has a larger interior space, and of course, the interior should be more luxurious.
Although it is like this, Li Zexuan has no time to care about this. After sitting down, he directly asked:
"Boss Lin has something to find Benhou, can I tell you now?"
Lin Wenyuan hurriedly said with a smile: "Excuse me, Lord Hou, for allowing you to waste time on Lin during your busy schedule, Lin is really uneasy..."
Li Zexuan waved his hand and interrupted: "You don't need to say anything more if you are polite. It's not a short time since Benhou and Boss Lin have known each other. Boss Lin, if you have anything to do, just tell me!"
Lin Wenyuan knows that Li Zexuan is the kind of temperament that doesn’t like to be oblivious, so he said directly: “Master Hou, it’s like this. This morning, Lin heard that you created a kind that doesn’t require human and animal power. The running fairy car, I wonder if this happened?"
Li Zexuan roughly guessed what Lin Wenyuan wanted to say. He couldn't help but flashed his eyes, and said: "That thing is not called a fairy car, and there are no fairy cars in the world! The thing is called an electric bicycle! Benhou is the original one. The bicycle is transformed from a front-wheel drive to a rear-wheel drive! Afterwards, it is supplemented by the workshop's special electric motor and lead-acid battery, so that the bicycle can run fast with electricity!"
Although it sounds very domineering, Li Zexuan doesn't like the name "fairy car" that the people give to electric bicycles because he thinks this name contains too much superstition!
Even if the soul was inexplicably worn to the Tang Dynasty, Li Zexuan still did not believe that there were immortals in this world, so he would definitely not adopt the name immortal car in the future, especially now that engineering has developed to a certain level, there are already many People began to truly understand the world. Li Zexuan didn't want to wait until all his students became communicators of engineering, but he became a theologian!
"That's it!"
After listening to Li Zexuan's words, Lin Wenyuan couldn't help but suddenly realized, and then he asked tentatively: "Master Hou, I don't know if this electric bicycle, do you plan to sell it to the private sector in the future?"
Li Zexuan's eyes narrowed, thought for a moment, and said: "If electric bicycles want to continue running for a long time, they must charge the lead battery. Before the large-scale coverage of electric power lines, electric bicycles cannot be sold. !"
When Lin Wenyuan heard this, he was a little disappointed. Li Zexuan asked when he heard this: "It seems that Boss Lin really wants to earn money from electric bicycles?"
"No, no, no~!"
Lin Wenyuan was taken aback, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Master Hou Mingjian, Lin did not mean that! The bicycles made in the previous workshop have already made Lin a lot of money, and Lin does not dare to have any more. Other unexpected thoughts, but Lin just wants to help Master Hou share his worries!"
"Share the worries for me? What do you say?"
Li Zexuan wondered.
Lin Wenyuan swallowed and cautiously said: "Lin heard that Lord Hou was very short of copper before, and Lin happened to know a few Japanese businessmen. They liked my Datang bicycle very much, saying they were in the country. , As long as you have a bicycle, you can buy anything, including copper! Let’s not hide the Lord, Lin once used three bicycles and exchanged them for fifteen thousand catties of brass~!"
"So much? On average, a bicycle can be exchanged for five thousand catties of brass?"
Li Zexuan was surprised to know that when the bicycle was first released, it was only four hundred dollars for one, and the membership card discount was not included. Later, as the production capacity of bicycles in the workshop increased, the bicycles The price has also been fine-tuned down a bit, and now you can buy one for more than three hundred and fifty dollars!
In this era, the value of brass is difficult to estimate with money, because the court does not allow people to sell copper privately, but many people melt copper coins to make copperware.
Datang’s consistent money weighs about seven or eight catties, and the weight of more than three hundred and fifty coins is about three thousand catties. In order to buy bicycles, those Japanese merchants are willing to pay five thousand catties for a bicycle. The high price of copper made Li Zexuan a little bit moved!
After all, he is short of copper now, and the main material of the bicycle is made of iron, and a little iron is used to exchange a lot of brass. Li Zexuan thinks this business can be done, but...
"This brass should also be under the control of the court in the Wa Kingdom? I have heard that the Japanese people also use copper coins. Those merchants who dare to sell so much brass without authorization, shouldn't the Wa Kingdom allow it? "
Li Zexuan reacted quickly and asked.
In the Tang Dynasty of China, Japanese coins also used the Kaiyuan Tongbao of the Tang Dynasty (issued in 621), and at the same time began to issue "Hetong Kaixi" (Silver cast in Nara, Japan in 708), followed by Wannian Tongbao and Shen Gong Kaibao, Longping Yongbao, Fushou Shenbao, Chenghe Changbao, Longevity Dabao, Raoyi Shenbao, Zhenguan Yongbao, Kuanping Dabao. By the end of the Tang Dynasty in 907, Yanxi Tongbao and Daigo were also issued~IndoMTL.com~ It was messy, but many currencies were made of copper, and the rulers of the Japanese country had quite strict control over copper mines.
Lin Wenyuan hurriedly replied: "You don’t know, Lord Hou, that the country of Japan is very different from before! Since the son of Prince Shengde who came to my Datang earlier, the son of Prince Shanbei returned to the country, immediately He ascended to the throne. While imitating the six departments of the Tang Dynasty to reform the government, he also opened academies and reformed old customs! It is said that the knowledge taught in his academy is exactly what Hou Ye your "New Mathematical Studies", and he wanted to come to the original mountain. Before returning to China, Brother Bei bought a few of this mathematics textbook and came back~!"
Hearing this, Li Zexuan frowned and said: "What does this have to do with the good selling of brass by merchants from the country of Japan?"
Lin Wenyuan replied: "Master Hou, of course it matters! It is said that the newly enthroned king of the Kingdom of Japan directly abolished the copper coins and used Tang Yuan of the Tang Dynasty as the domestic currency. In addition, he also built many The seaport wants to trade with Datang’s maritime merchants and exchange information! In this way, if copper coins are not used in the country, the control on private brass sales is naturally much smaller~!"
After listening to Li Zexuan, there was not only no joy on his face, but he couldn't help but sink in his heart, because if the Wa country continued to develop like this, then within 20 years, there will be a few powerful people around Datang Opponent!
At this moment, Li Zexuan regretted not leaving Brother Shanbei in Datang forever!
"Well! In that case, the copper needed by the workshop will be replaced from the merchants in the country~! Anyway, we will not lose money anyway!"
Li Zexuan thought for a moment and said.
Now he is really short of copper, and he can get a lot of copper from the Japanese people. He can't ask for it. As for the hidden danger of Brother Shanbei, he can only talk about it later~!
