Although he was unhappy, Yang Fan couldn't do anything to Li Shimin.
He could only say angrily to Wu Meiniang: "Why are you still standing there? Didn't you see any guests? Quickly order the servants to serve tea."
Wu Meiniang, as if she had been granted amnesty, bowed and quickly left for the backyard.
Li Shimin was startled, but he quickly realized it and almost got angry!
What is this bastard thinking!
You have hundreds of beauties in your harem, but you still miss a woman like you?
Do you really think I'm as crazy as you?
This is simply unreasonable.
I can't bear to see you doing such a disgraceful thing in broad daylight.
However, Li Shimin also knew that his behavior just now was inappropriate, but as an emperor, he had his own pride and did not bother to explain.
He snorted coldly: "Didn't you issue a military order to solve the people's heating problem within seven days? Now you are playing around with women, and this is your solution? Do you really think I am easy to fool?"
Seeing that Li Shimin did not stop Wu Meiniang from leaving, Yang Fan also knew that there might be a misunderstanding.
He glared at Changsun Wuji, who was watching the joke next to him, and said: "Master Changsun, as an important minister of the imperial court, how can you allow your majesty to leave the palace incognito? If there is an emergency, how will you serve the queen like the queen, and how will you report to the court?" How to explain civilly and militaryly to the people of the world, I will definitely impeach you..."
Fang Xuanling and Li Junxian immediately couldn't laugh or cry, but they were more amused.
Yang Fan is so audacious, he actually dares to divert trouble and cause mischief.
Li Shimin's face turned even darker and he shouted angrily: "Shut up!"
"I obey the order." Yang Fan lowered his eyebrows, like a good baby.
Changsun Wuji was wronged and became Dou E. There were several people traveling with him. Why did this kid want to target him? Isn't it possible that the horoscopes are against each other?
But what I admire more is Yang Fan's courage.
In all these years, Changsun Wuji has never seen anyone dare to tease and threaten Li Shimin like this.
Although the words just now seemed to be directed at his eldest son Wuji, in fact they were more aimed at Li Shimin, meaning:
"Your Majesty, if you talk to me again, I will tell you that you left the palace incognito. I don't believe that those imperial censors will kill you!"
Before Li Shimin could get angry, Yang Fan said with a smile: "Your Majesty must have heard some news and rushed over, right?"
Li Shimin didn't know why, but every time he saw Yang Fan going against him, his anger couldn't help but rise.
But this guy Yang Fan is able to judge the situation, which makes people love and hate him at the same time.
Li Shimin didn't know that this was just his pride.
For a long time, no matter whether they were ministers or relatives, everyone was frightened and respectful in front of him.
Yang Fan played the opposite tune like a friend, but Li Shimin felt fresh and happy.
On one side is the self-esteem of an emperor and elders, and on the other side is the desire and enjoyment of friends.
Therefore, Li Shimin and Yang Fan always feel full of contradictions when they get along, a feeling of falling in love and killing each other.
Seeing that Yang Fan was not afraid of him at all, Li Shimin was depressed and could only follow what Yang Fan had just said: "I went out of the palace today to explore the public sentiment, and suddenly I heard that you invited many Chang'an merchants to come over, so I came to see the excitement; could it be that you Have you really solved the people’s heating problem?”
Of course, it is impossible for Li Shimin to say that he originally wanted to come to Yang Fan. If he did, he would not lose face!
After holding back his words, Yang Fan did not expose it. The emperor was not staying in the inner courtyard of the palace, and he still had time to go out and watch the excitement like taking a walk. Who would believe this?
Yang Fan did not try to be mysterious and nodded: "Thanks to your majesty, we just solved it today!"
Li Shimin was overjoyed, and all his thoughts of fighting for his daughter's injustice had been forgotten.
Nowadays, the heating problem of the people is what worries him!
However, he still had to make a gesture, suppressing the joy in his heart, Li Shimin said: "Huh, let me just listen to how you solve the problem. If it is really feasible, I will not argue with you, otherwise I will not count the crimes. I’ll punish you for being a good-looking boy.”
"Your Majesty, the problem today is simply that the price of charcoal has increased significantly and the supply is insufficient, resulting in the people not having sufficient heating supplies. Wei Chen is right." Yang Fan said with a slight smile.
Li Shimin glared at Yang Fan: "Aren't you talking nonsense? Fang Aiqing has already analyzed these issues during the last court meeting. What I need is a solution to the problem."
Yang Fan explained a few words to the servant, and while he was talking, several people came to the main hall.
Seeing the servants bringing in the briquettes, Yang Fan said, "Your Majesty, take a look first before talking."
It seems that Li Shimin and others are a little confused. Although Fang Xuanling and others are in high positions, they are not people who are indifferent to their limbs and grains.
But they didn't recognize what the black thing like a honeycomb was.
However, Changsun Wuji was not only quick-thinking, but also because Fuzhong Iron Smelting had come into contact with coal before, so he was a little unsure and said: "It looks a bit like coal, but it is completely different from what is usually used. Could it be..."
"Master Changsun is right. This is made of coal. It has been specially processed. I named it briquettes."
Of course you have to brag louder, otherwise how can others believe you?
Fang Xuanling was puzzled: "Bicomb coal, this name is very appropriate, but coal has carbon poisoning, how to solve this problem?"
"To solve the problem of carbon poisoning, we have to understand how carbon poisoning is produced. In fact, charcoal also has carbon poisoning. So why is it easy to be poisoned by carbon poisoning when burning pebbles, but rarely when burning charcoal?"
Yang Fan did not answer directly, but guided the question.
If you want rapid promotion, you must get the strong support of His Majesty the Emperor Li Er so that briquettes can quickly enter thousands of households.
Otherwise, if you just rely on your own efforts, by the time the promotion spreads, the day lilies will be cold!
I originally wanted to bring it up during the meeting, but now that Li Shimin is here today.
As the saying goes, it is better to choose the day than to hit it. If you can promote it one day earlier, fewer people may freeze to death.
That's why Yang Fan explained it in such detail.
Carbon poisoning is nothing more than carbon monoxide poisoning. In later generations, anyone who has studied chemistry can easily describe it.
This is not a complicated question.
It's just that Datang had no knowledge of chemistry at all, so no one knew what carbon poison was.
Li Shimin was obviously very happy when he saw Yang Fan pointing the way. After all, Yang Fan was his future son-in-law.
But I couldn't stand this guy's proud look, so he said:
"Don't be there to titillate people. If you have something to say, just say it, and if you have something to say, just fart!"
Seeing Li Shimin swearing, Fang Xuanling and others opened their mouths with disbelief on their faces.
With His Majesty Li Er's proud character, it is simply unimaginable how he could show such a rude side outside.
Yang Fan rolled his eyes and said directly:
"Whether it is pebbles or charcoal, the substances they are actually composed of are almost the same. Since charcoal is relatively loose and burns relatively fully, there will be no carbon poisoning, or in other words, very little poisonous gas will appear, and it is not easy to cause harm to people or animals. harm."
"Charcoal is different. Untreated charcoal is dense and hard. Direct combustion will release a large amount of poisonous gas. People often burn charcoal with their doors and windows closed, and they are prone to carbon poisoning."
Yang Fan became a teacher again, and his students were still the top figures in the world today.
An entry-level physics class made Li Shimin and others seem to understand something.
But it sounds like he is very noble and powerful.
Seeing several people being coaxed into a daze, Yang Fan continued: "It is said that seeing is better than hearing a hundred times. Only by experiencing it yourself can you know that what I said is true."
After speaking, Yang Fan lit the briquettes directly.
Li Junxian was originally a little worried about Li Shimin's carbon emissions, but for Li Shimin, who has experienced many battles, this is just a small case, and of course he will not leave.
Instead, he took the briquettes into a guest room and asked two Baiqi to stay in the room.
Although Li Shimin believed that Yang Fan would not lie to him, in order to be safe, he had to put the villain first and then the gentleman.
Yang Fan didn't do anything. In a wooden house like this, there would always be some ventilation.
Even if all the doors and windows are closed, this kind of briquette will not cause carbon poisoning.
"When you first use a briquette stove, you need other flammable things to help ignite the briquettes. After that, you just need to replace the briquettes one by one after they burn out."
When Yang Fan was a child, he lived in a rural area and used briquettes. This cheap thing was still used by many people in rural areas even when he traveled through time.
Li Shimin can be regarded as a frugal emperor, and he knows that waste is shameful: "According to what you said, the briquettes are always burning, isn't it too wasteful?"
When I heard Yang Fan's words, my first reaction was waste.
"Your Majesty is wise, and this brings us to the point." Yang Fan flattered him.
"There is one difference between this briquette stove and ordinary stoves."
Li Shimin and others circled around the briquette stove, a little puzzled: "What's different?"
Except for the slightly strange shape, there is no big difference from the carbon stove.
"There's not much difference, but have you seen this small window?"
"Small window? What's its use?" Li Shimin and others saw the iron sheet below.
Yang Fan smiled slightly: "The beauty is here..."
Hearing Yang Fan's explanation, Li Shimin and others suddenly realized, but they asked the question they were most concerned about: "What is the price of this briquette?"
When they heard that one penny could buy ten briquettes and tens of thousands of them could be produced in a day, Li Shimin and others had different expressions.
As briquettes enter thousands of households, they must be cheap and easy to use, otherwise the problem will not be solved at all.
Now we just need to wait for the test results to come out and let go.
Li Shimin thought more. He wanted to pay the price for hoarding charcoal.
Changsun Wuji, on the other hand, had a gloomy look on his face, and the cold wind flashed in his eyes from time to time. He never expected that Yang Fan could solve it so easily.
What's more important is that the Changsun family may become a joke in Chang'an City in the future.
Not only did he sell the priceless charcoal mountain, he also hoarded a lot of charcoal in his house.
If Li Shimin hadn't still been here, Changsun Wuji would have wanted to fly back to his house right away.
Because he clearly knows that once briquettes are promoted, the price of charcoal will drop to cabbage!
