Chapter 705

Su Lu is very distressed these days.

The cool breeze beside the waterside pavilion in summer can't calm his irritability. It's too upset.

In order to synthesize a soldier God card, more than a dozen Level 3 cards are gone, not to mention Level 2 cards and level 1 cards. The listener cries and the listener is sad.

With the newly exploded military array card, Su Lu didn't see it much.

Level 1 marine card + 1

Another new card burst out. Su Lu took a look at the card interface. Gao Dabao's master card was activated, and the soldier God card also moved. It should be Gao Dabao's engagement with the rebels.

Li Qing, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, came from the front and raised his sleeve to wipe his forehead from time to time. It was too hot in this weather.

Walking to the pavilion, Li Qing sat down next to Su Lu, frowning:

"This morning, ministers quarreled again. The bigger the country is, the greater their mind is. The same party and the different, even Zhou Yuan can't avoid vulgarity."

Zhou Yuan, a minister promoted by Su Lu, was highly expected by Li Qing. Since Zuo Xiang left, the top three provinces have not selected the leaders of the three provinces, and the left and right phases have been suspended for many years.

In the past, Li Qingwei was short of hope. When Su Lu was away, it was difficult to subdue the officials. Now the state of Tang is gradually stable, and the government has been stable for many years. Li Qing has the idea of selecting the left and right to share the government.

Since the news came out, the DPRK and China have been quarreling constantly these days. All factions are exposing and criticizing for fear that the other party will climb up at once.

Li Qing is also a big head. He regrets that he has let out the news of selecting left and right ministers.

Su Lu said casually:

"The most important thing in selecting officials is ability and loyalty. Zuo Xiangling, Zhongshu Province, controls the Ministry of officials, the Ministry of rites and the Ministry of household. He is the first of all officials in the world. He is honored and favored. He is the peak of officials. That scholar doesn't want to do it."

"But one thing you should remember is that the Ministry of war will no longer be under the control of the left and right ministers. The Minister of war will directly play the right to you without passing the left and right ministers and the cabinet."

"The staff office is your think tank, and it doesn't need to be responsible to the left and right ministers. It still plays right to you directly."

Li Qing was stunned when he heard the speech. A moment later, he said slowly:

"It's not very good. The military department always belongs to one of the six departments and is controlled by the right minister. I suddenly changed my ancestral system. I'm afraid it will cause an uproar in the imperial court."

Su Lu raised his mouth when he heard the speech:

"Just lift it up. It doesn't matter. What can they do if they quarrel with heaven?"

"If they want to govern the country, if they have the ability, they can fight for power and profit. If they can't govern the country and benefit one party, what's the use of them? They can directly dismiss officials and seize barons and drive back to their hometown."

Li Qing frowned more tightly when he heard the speech. It's even worse. Assessing officials is not the main evaluation rule in this direction. If they are evaluated according to this, most officials are afraid to be unqualified.

Su Yun came in quickly from the outside and said with a smile on his cheek:

"Brother, your majesty, when the ordnance mansion was building a new stone track, it accidentally made something that can solidify at the sight of water. The texture is quite hard. Many craftsmen took it home to make a pot table and lay the ground. I thought it would be good to use it in the Imperial Palace to lay the ground."

In the back, two female officers carrying a small bag followed Su Yun in.

Su Lu raised his eyebrows and saw the water solidify, the cement?

Li Qing said angrily:

"Little sister, you handle it yourself. You don't need to bother your brother."

Su Lu waved his hand, interrupted Li Qing and asked:

"Show me how the cement sets."

Cement?

Su Yun looked at his brother suspiciously. The craftsmen named the powder lime and his brother cement. Both names seem quite appropriate.

He ordered the two female officers to pour out the cement and ordered the female officer nearby to fetch water. Su Yun rolled up his sleeves, pulled out a knife from the bodyguard's waist and ordered the female officer to add water.

Mixing in the cement with a knife and injecting some internal force from time to time, Su Yun said with a smile:

"Brother, it's called cement. It seems quite appropriate. The craftsmen say it's ash from stone. It's also quite appropriate to call it lime."

Su Lu looked at the lime added with water gradually solidified and frowned.

It seems that this thing is much easier to use than cement. Adding water will solidify. As long as the capacity is enough, a flat cement road can be built that day.

Seeing that it had solidified into a pitted stone, Li Qing said impatiently:

"What's the use of this thing? It's just to break the stone, and then use internal force to build the stone again. It's not as convenient as using stone directly."

Su Yun stopped talking when he heard the speech.

It seems so. I made lime, dragged it to the palace, and added water to inject internal power.

Finally, he made the stone. From stone to stone, he seemed to have done nothing.

Su Yun was so depressed that he thought he had found something new. In fact, it was a stone.

Ah, no, how do craftsmen use it.

Su Lu said with a smile:

"Well, well, the craftsman who found this thing should be rewarded."

"Lord, Lord."

Su Lu patted the railing of the waterside pavilion and said in a proud tone.

Li Qing is a little confused. This broken stone is worthy of being honored. It's good not to beat it.

Su Yun's eyes brightened. Does my brother value this thing so much? No, it's just a stone. My brother rewarded me with the rank of Lord Jin.

Hey, my brother still loves me and takes care of my face.

I'm so big that my brother has to worry about me.

"No, brother, I know it's useless."

Su Yun is dejected. He blames himself for not using his head. He makes everyone laugh and implicates his brother.

Su Lu waved his hands and said:

"In recent days, the Ministry of war has complained that the grain and grass transported to Mobei and jiamengguan have been seriously damaged. They can't be transported from ten stops to six stops. They are damaged by official roads and can't be used."

"Every rainy season, the official roads are often muddy, and the cart can't go. A cart of grain and grass are damaged on the official roads. Both the Ministry of war and the Ministry of household have proposed that the Ministry of industry repair and rectify the official roads."

Li Qing said suspiciously:

"Since the stone track line was established, the Ministry of war has used more stone track lines to transport grain, grass and baggage, so the officials have used less and lost a lot of damage."

Su Lu smiled and asked:

"After all, the stone track line is limited and can't reach every barracks. The transportation of the last dozens of kilometers still depends on the official road."

"According to the statistics of the staff office, the last tens of kilometers of grain and grass lost last year accounted for 30% of the total."

Li Qingmei frowned again. There were so many that he never knew.

Su Yun asked suspiciously:

"But, brother, what does what you said have to do with these?"

The surrounding female guards and officials also looked at Su Lu curiously. They didn't understand why the LORD said just now that the craftsman who found this thing should be given a lord, a lord and an official.

Can this stone be so valuable?

Su Lu told the female officer:

"Add the remaining water."

With that, Su Lu told Changning to get a piece of paperweight.

Just after the lime was mixed with the water, Changning came with the paperweight and handed it to Su Lu. Changning looked curiously at the well mixed cement on the ground.

What does the Lord want Paperweight for?

Su Lu squatted down with a paperweight, wiped it on the cement a few times, and smoothed the uneven cement.

He ordered Su Yundu to breathe in. A moment later, the solidified flat cement board appeared in front of the people.
