Chapter 73: Manual for the establishment of new rural heatstroke prevention bases
Du Ruhui gave Wei Zheng a wink, Wei Zheng nodded, then looked at Li Chengfeng, bowed slightly, and said, "Old minister, pay homage to the Eighth Prince!"
"The old minister also pays homage to the Eighth Prince!"
"No gift, why did you two come to my town palace?"
Li Chengfeng frowned slightly and looked at Du Ruhui and Wei Zheng.
These two old men are very smart and have no other things. They will never come to the town palace to look for Li Chengfeng.
After all, Wei Zheng has been fooled by Li Chengfeng several times.
He wanted to run away when he saw Li Chengfeng. Unless there was something big, how could he take the initiative to come to Li Chengfeng?
Wei Zheng had just come in and shivered suddenly.
Wei Zheng looked at Du Ruhui and said, "Duke Lai, isn't it right? Why is there a cold air and a yin energy in the Eighth Prince's palace?"
"Yes, the old minister also felt it! This feeling of coldness is like the snow of the Three Winters, which is so exciting... To be honest, it's a bit comfortable!"
"Um?"
Du Ruhui thought about it and found that it was really a bit comfortable!
Du Ruhui bowed respectfully to Li Chengfeng and said, "The Eighth Prince, the old minister is here to pay homage. In fact, there is an important matter. I want the Eighth Prince to ask for advice!"
"Okay, then you can tell me!"
Li Chengfeng agreed very readily.
Du Ruhui frowned and then said, "Eighth Prince, the old minister doesn't want to trouble the Eighth Prince! But perhaps only the Eighth Prince can answer this matter!"
"The Eighth Prince once proposed a major project like the 'South-to-North Water Diversion' in the court! The Second Emperor handed over such a major project to the old minister!"
"The old minister has finally come up with a way!"
"However, the weather has been hot recently. When the old minister went north to Chang'an City and collected labor, he found that many people were unable to eat and the weather was hot, so they could not collect labor at all!"
"If the labor force cannot be collected, the 'South-to-North Water Diversion' project cannot be started!"
Du Ruhui exuded the distress in his heart.
Li Chengfeng shook his head and said, "It's very simple. Now the weather is hot. When the weather gets cooler, you can naturally collect labor!"
"And, when you go to collect labor, you must accompany the food that is open to the treasury, open the food for the people for free, and also pay money for all the laborers! In this way, the people are full, have a job, and have money to get it. Who doesn't want to do this work?"
"Oh? The Eighth Prince said it so well. He woke up the dreamer with one sentence!"
"Ding, from Du Ruhui's praise, naughty value 15!"
However, at this moment, Wei Zheng shook his eyebrows at Du Ruhui again.
Li Chengfeng felt something was wrong.
These two old guys who are sophisticated must not be so simple as to ask about the "South-to-North Water Diversion"?
In fact, it is really as Li Chengfeng thought.
Because Li Shimin was bitten by a dog last night.
So Li Shimin did not want to come to the Zhenwang Mansion to ask Li Chengfeng for advice.
He sent Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui to ask Li Chengfeng for advice.
Immediately afterwards, Li Chengfeng instructed Eunuch Wu to take out the watermelon from the refrigerator and cut it neatly.
Li Chengfeng said: "Duke Lai and Duke Zheng, say anything quickly. Don't hesitate, otherwise I will really not help you!"
"This, okay, okay, the old minister said this!"
Du Ruhui said: "The Eighth Prince, I'm not hiding it! The old minister came to pay homage to the Eighth Prince on the order of the emperor! Recently, the places north of Chang'an City have been frequently disturbed by drought, and the people are living in poverty. So the old minister wants to ask the Eighth Prince, is there any way to solve the problem of the Great Heat?"
Wei Zheng said: "Yes, the Eighth Prince! Since the old minister entered the Zhenwang Mansion, he felt the cold air was so hot, so the old minister thought to himself, if the Eighth Prince could turn the temperature of the world into this way, that would be great!"
"Puff... Old Man Wei Zheng, do you really treat me as a god?"
Li Chengfeng almost spit out a mouthful of saliva.
This old man Wei Zheng actually wants to make the temperature in the whole world so cool?
Do you really think you are a god?
Only by inventing an air conditioner yourself can you make the Town Prince's Mansion cooler. If you want the whole world to become so cooler, then will you change the temperature?
It is impossible to change the temperature at present.
Wei Zheng looked a little embarrassed and continued, "I would like to ask the Eighth Prince to help me. After all, the people in the world who are already troubled by the Great Heat are in vain!"
"Well...were you going to prevent heatstroke? It's simple, are there paper and pen?"
"Yes, yes, I've taken it with me!"
"Okay, give it to me!"
"Yes, the Eighth Prince!"
Wei Zheng took out a side of rice paper from his sleeve.
Eunuch Wu brought the pen and ink, and Wei Zheng actually grinds the ink for Li Chengfeng himself.
"Since it's for the people of the world, then I will help you!"
"Yes, the old minister thanked the Eighth Prince! I believe that the people in Chang'an City will be extremely grateful to the Eighth Prince!"
Wei Zheng was excited.
Li Chengfeng once went to Chang'an City and met many poor people.
So Li Chengfeng felt that saving the people in the water and fire was accumulating merit.
Half an hour later, Li Chengfeng handed over the small notebook he had written to Wei Zheng and said, "After going back, do what I wrote on it! In this way, I believe that the people who are suffering will feel better!"
"Yes, good eighth prince! The eighth prince is in love with the world's great heart, and the old minister is so grateful!"
Wei Zheng bowed deeply to Li Chengfeng, and this is sincere thanks.
Du Ruhui also bowed respectfully and said, "Then the Eighth Prince, we will go back and report the emperor!"
"Yeah, okay, go! Wait a minute..."
"Eighth Prince, what else is there?"
"Take these pieces of watermelon back for my father to eat!"
"Okay, thank you for the Eighth Prince!"
...
After Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui returned to the imperial study room.
The two of them handed over the small notebook written by Li Chengfeng to Li Shimin to watch.
Li Shimin moved a seat from the chair with difficulty.
Because his butt still hurts now.
Last night, I went to Tai Chi Palace to celebrate Queen Dou's birthday. Unexpectedly, when I passed by the imperial kitchen in the middle of the night, a big black dog took advantage of the night and bit Li Shimin's butt.
Li Shimin screamed in pain on the spot.
Later, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde and others were sent to search for the big black dog in the palace, but it has not been found yet.
"Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, what's the matter I want you to do?" Li Shimin asked
"Report to the emperor, according to your instructions, the Eighth Prince has come up with corresponding countermeasures and has written them all in this small notebook!" Wei Zheng replied.
"Oh? I'll take a look!"
Li Shimin picked up the notebook and opened it to take a look.
A complex emotion instantly enveloped Li Shimin's heart.
Because there are a few big words written on it: Manual for establishing a new rural heat prevention base!
"Handbook for the Establishment of New Rural Heat Prevention Base"?
