"What the hell..." Wang Gui and Wei Ting were so shocked that they gritted their teeth when they heard Lu Chen's words. Oral agreement and written agreement are two different concepts. Oral agreements follow the rules of these two aristocratic family officials. Sex, if it doesn't work, just faint again. If it is a written agreement, it will be in black and white. According to Lu Chen's character, he will definitely come to ask for it directly.
"What? Don't you dare?" Seeing the expressions on the two people's faces that made their teeth itch with hatred, Lu Chen said disdainfully, "Forget it if you don't dare! I didn't expect that two figures who claimed to be disciples of saints would actually be afraid one day. !" Lu Chen activated the "cynicism" skill again.
"Why don't you dare!" At this time, the two of them were on the verge of death. However, when they thought about the poisonous nature of coal, they suddenly felt confident. They felt that Lu Chen was just showing off. They did not believe that anyone could really remove the toxins from coal.
Seeing that the two of them agreed in unison, Lu Chen immediately called out "pen and ink service". Chang Bao asked Li Yuan for his opinion. Li Yuan nodded in agreement, and then ordered the chamberlain on the side to get pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
Lu Chen was not polite and directly wrote two copies of the betting agreement between the two parties. This was the second time Lu Chen's "Slim Muscle" was released. Everyone was amazed by Lu Chen's "Slim Muscle". You must know that the calligraphers respected in this era are Wang Xizhi, Wang Xianzhi, Zhang Zhi and Zhong Yao, who are known as the "Four Sages of Calligraphy". When I saw Lu Chen's "thin body" today, I immediately understood that Lu Chen alone Chen's "skinny body" skills were enough to establish a sect in calligraphy. Suddenly, everyone was staring closely at Lu Chen's handwriting. As for the content, no one actually cared about it for a while.
Wang Gui and Wei Ting were also deeply attracted by Lu Chen's handwriting, but the feud between them and Lu Chen made them embarrassed to stare at Lu Chen blatantly, which directly caused the two of them to Not to mention how uncomfortable people feel.
Lu Chen wrote two pieces of paper in one breath, "Take a look, are there any mistakes?" Lu Chen blew dry the ink on one piece of paper and showed it to Wang Gui and Wei Ting. The content was very simple, that is, if Lu Chen Unable to remove the toxins from the coal or prove that the coal can indeed be used and will not harm people, Wang Gui donated 10,000 acres of fertile land, while Wei Ting donated 5,000 acres of fertile land, and stipulated that the fertile land must be in the suburbs of Chang'an City. On the contrary, Come here, if Lu Chen can't prove it, Lu Chen will resign from the title of Marquis of Chang'an County and let the Wang family and Wei family suffer.
The two of them stared at the document for a long time. In fact, the content was very short and they could be read in just a few glances. The main reason was that Lu Chen's calligraphy of "slim muscles" attracted them both so much that they looked at it seriously. .
"I'm talking about you two! Are you illiterate or something? It's been almost a quarter of an hour!" Lu Chen was always holding the written papers, and he was tired! I couldn't help but say something sour to these two people.
"The content is not inappropriate!" After hearing Lu Chen's harsh words, Wang Gui straightened up, looked at Lu Chen and said, but while speaking, he couldn't help but continue to glance at the words on the document. Wei Ting stood beside him. He also stroked his beard and nodded.
"Since you two agree, let's sign and stamp it!" Lu Chen was not polite and took off the gold seal representing the Marquis of Chang'an County from his waist, pressed it on the two receipts, and then pressed it on the two receipts respectively. He made a fingerprint, then bared his teeth at Wang Gui and Wei Ting, "You two, please!" Lu Chen pushed the sign in front of the two of them and made a "please" gesture.
Wang Gui and Wei Ting were also unambiguous. They stamped their seals and fingerprints in the same way, and followed Wang Gui to reach out to get the receipt.
"No!" Lu Chen reached out and stopped Wang Gui's hand. Wang Gui was stunned when Lu Chen stopped him like this.
"Marquis Lu County, the written document is in two copies. You should have one copy and the two of us should have one copy. Why don't you let us collect the written document?" Wang Gui's face suddenly darkened. The reason why he was anxious to get the written document was not because it was so complicated. What matters is the words on the document.
"Who said this document is for you?" Lu Chen looked at Wang Gui's unhappy look and laughed, "This share belongs to me, and this one is for you." Keep it with Your Majesty. When the time comes when you two default on the debt, I can also ask Your Majesty for a decree so that I can come to collect the debt!" Lu Chen said, and handed one of the documents to the chamberlain on the side.
"Please, father-in-law, please submit this document to Your Majesty!" Lu Chen said with a smile to the chamberlain beside him.
The chamberlain nodded and handed the written receipt to Chang Bao, who then placed it on the Long Book Table in front of Li Yuan.
Looking at the words on the document, Li Yuan nodded happily, but it was a pity that this was a document, otherwise Li Yuan would have had to frame Lu Chen's calligraphy in the next court.
"This one belongs to me!" Lu Chen said, picking up the other document, folding it and putting it in his sleeve.
Lu Chen's operation made Wang Gui and Wei Ting dumbfounded. How come he didn't even have a voucher in his hand in the end? The two looked at each other directly.
"If you two feel that you can't trust His Majesty and me, you can copy a copy. I don't mind signing and stamping it again!" Lu Chen said as he prepared to take out the written document from his sleeve pocket. The key is what Lu Chen said. It's a bit stupid, and Wang Gui and Wei Ting really can't copy another copy.
After all, Lu Chen wrote two identical documents. One was kept by Lu Chen, and the other was directly dedicated to the emperor. The two of them agreed to copy another copy, saying that they couldn't trust Lu Chen in this business, but there was one copy. In the emperor's hands, why can't you trust His Majesty today?
If the two of them really copied another copy, without Lu Chen having to deal with them, Li Yuan would go crazy on the spot. Why, do they really think that the emperor Li Yuan is a good gentleman?
"No need!" How could the two of them not know that Lu Chen was digging a trap for them again? Wang Gui, who had been tricked once by Lu Chen, shook his head directly, "Now it has been signed and signed. How about asking the Marquis of Lu County to prove that charcoal will not harm people's lives?" Wang Gui didn't want to talk to Lu Chen anymore, for fear that Lu Chen would dig another hole for him, so he directly urged Lu Chen to prove that charcoal can detoxify.
"No problem!" Lu Chen agreed simply, "But before I prove it, I would like to ask your majesty to allow my bodyguard to go to the palace for an audience. After all, the tools to be used belong to my bodyguard!" Lu Chen turned around and faced Li Yuan. Shi Li said.
"I'm sure!" Naturally, Li Yuan had received a report a long time ago, saying that the four guards led by Lu Chen, all holding strange iron tools, were waiting outside the Tai Chi Hall and were guarded by the Forbidden Army.
As Li Yuan finished speaking, a chamberlain ran out, stood at the door of Tai Chi Hall and shouted: "The guards of the Marquis of Chang'an County, Liu Jing, Fang Qi, Du Junchuo and Su Dingfang, are here to see you!"
As the chamberlain's voice came out, Liu Jing and the other two men soon walked into the Tai Chi Hall carrying the accessories of the iron stove. The four of them put the accessories on the ground and knelt down to pay homage to Li Yuan.
"Your Majesty, Fang Qi, pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor!" Fang Qi still has an official position, so he can call himself a minister, while the remaining three Liu Jing are just Lu Chen's bodyguards. To put it bluntly, the three of them are white bodies, so After meeting Li Yuan, the three of them had to call themselves "caomin".
"Common people Su Dingfang (Du Junchuo and Liu Jing), pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor!" Su Dingfang was okay, but Du Junchuo and Liu Jing were a little trembling.
"Without courtesy, get down!" Li Yuan looked at the four people kneeling in front of him. They were all young, but full of energy. He couldn't help but feel very fond of them, and he nodded and said with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Several people thanked them in unison, and then stood up. Fang Qi and Su Dingfang were pretty good, but Liu Jing and Du Junchuo were just a little less interesting. After all, they were not very old. Standing on both sides, the two of them felt a little scared, but they still stood on the spot.
"Lu Aiqing, are these the iron stoves you are talking about?" Li Yuan looked at the four people's feet curiously, looking at the iron stove accessories and asked curiously, while the civil and military officials, including Wang Gui and Wei Ting, also expressed their curiosity. His eyes looked at the accessories on the ground.
"Exactly!" Lu Chen nodded.
"Can this thing get rid of carbolic toxins?" Wang Gui looked at those accessories and couldn't help but said disdainfully. They were just a few iron tools, but the shape was a bit strange. If this thing could remove carbolic toxins, he would still I really don’t believe it.
"This thing can not only avoid carbolic toxins, but also provide warmth, and the heating effect is far better than a charcoal basin!" Lu Chen said confidently.
"Oh? Lu Aiqing, please show me how this iron stove can avoid carbolic toxins and keep warm!" Li Yuan said anxiously.
"According to the order!" Lu Chen saluted Li Yuan, then turned to look at Su Dingfang and the other four, "Dingfang, you guys assemble the stove!"
"Yes!" Su Dingfang raised his hand to Lu Chen, and then saw the four of them immediately starting to work. With little effort, the iron stove was assembled, and the iron stove itself was not that difficult to assemble.
Naturally, the iron stove cannot be assembled in the center of Tai Chi Hall. After all, Lu Chen did not bring such a long chimney, so he assembled the stove near the gate of Tai Chi Hall. The chimney extended directly to the outside of Tai Chi Hall. Everyone looked at the iron stove with great interest.
"Is this done?" Looking at the long chimney, Li Yuan asked curiously again.
"The assembly is complete! Now you can add the charcoal!" Lu Chen said and winked at Fang Qi. When he came, Fang Qi came over with some charcoal on his back.
Soon the fire in the stove started burning, and Fang Qi added the charcoal. With little effort, he saw the smoke of burning charcoal appearing at the mouth of the chimney that extended outside the Tai Chi Hall.
Normally, burning coal has a smell, but Lu Chen's stove also burns coal, but the smell is not that pungent!
