"When the confinement order is over, I will definitely go to the prince's house to make trouble!" Lu Chen did not refuse Li Daozong's invitation. After all, Lu Chen was also curious about what the prince's house was like. If he had the opportunity to see the living things, There were not many opportunities to become the prince, so Lu Chen agreed immediately.

"That's it, it's settled! I will definitely prepare fine wine and delicacies by then, and get drunk with Brother Lu before we retire!" Li Daozong was also very happy when he heard that Lu Chen agreed to his invitation, and smiled at Lu Chen, and then After being served by the servant, he got on his horse and rushed to Lu Chen on horseback, cupping his hands and saying, "Brother Lu, I take my leave!"

"My lord, go slow!" Standing at the door of Lujiazhuang, he also raised his hand to Li Daozong.

Li Daozong stopped chatting with Lu Chen, shook the reins, turned the horse's head, shouted "drive", and left Lujiazhuang with a group of servants.

Looking at Li Daozong's leaving figure, Lu Chen shook his head and smiled, then turned and walked towards the village, "Gouwa, go find you Aye and your Uncle Du! And your Grandpa Du, I have something to say!" Lu As Chen left, he gave instructions to Liu Jing.

"Hey!" Liu Jing responded and ran out quickly.

"Well!" Looking at Liu Jing's running speed, Lu Chen nodded, "It seems that the training effect is pretty good!" Lu Chen said to himself very proudly.

When Lu Chen returned to the mansion, Du Yanliang and his son, as well as Liu Laosan and his son, were already waiting in the front hall.

"Sir!" Seeing Lu Chen walking into the front hall from outside, the four of them saluted Lu Chen.

"Everyone, take a seat!" Lu Chen nodded to the four of them and waved his hand for them to find a seat.

When Lu Chen sat on the main seat, with Lu Chen's permission, the Du family and his son and Liu Laosan all found a seat to sit. As for Liu Jing, he consciously served Lu Chen tea.

"Sir, I wonder what the order is for calling the old man and others here?" Du Yanliang asked looking at Lu Chen who was drinking tea with a tea cup.

"I'm going to do a lot of construction!" Hearing Du Yanliang's question, Lu Chen put down his teacup and looked at Du Yanliang and said with a smile.

"I wonder what you mean by this large-scale construction project? It's freezing cold today. If you start a large-scale construction project, it will inevitably be a waste of money and people!" When Du Yanliang heard Lu Chen said that he wanted to "build a large-scale construction project", he looked at Lu Chen in surprise. Could it be Lu Chen? Is Chen also going to start bullying the bankers like those aristocratic families? This is what Du Yanliang doesn't want to see, but if Lu Chen insists on it, Du Yanliang and other bankers really have no choice but to implement it. Therefore, Du Yanliang spoke out, and his intention is nothing more than to persuade Lu Chen not to carry out large-scale construction at this time.

"Are I the kind of person who bullies farmers?" Why couldn't Lu Chen understand the meaning of Du Yanliang's words, "Come! I will show you why we need to build a large-scale construction project!" Lu Chen stood up and waved to the four of them, The four of them got up and followed Lu Chen to the back garden.

Naturally, Du Yanliang and his son had never seen the greenhouse, and Liu Laosan had never been there after the greenhouse was built. Only Liu Jing often went to the backyard greenhouse to pick vegetables for Lu Chen to eat, so when he saw Lu Chen walking towards the back garden, Liu Jing He knew what Lu Chen was going to see with a few people.

But when the three of them looked at Liu Jing, Liu Jing nodded and shook his head, saying that he knew but couldn't say it. The three of them also nodded in understanding and followed Lu Chen silently. Go to the back garden door.

"Master!" The Beiwei Guards soldiers guarding the Moon Gate in the back garden saluted Lu Chenyi.

"Yes!" Lu Chen nodded and led Liu Jing and the four of them into the back garden. At this time, the greenery in the greenhouse could already be seen through the greenhouse.

"This is what I want to build a big project on!" Lu Chen pointed at the greenhouse in front of him and said.

"This is..." Compared to what Liu Jing was accustomed to, Du Yanliang, his son and Liu Laosan were surprised to see the greenery in front of them. You must know that it is the cold winter season, let alone eating green grass, just looking at it. A touch of green is surprising enough.

"This thing is called a greenhouse. You can also grow vegetables in winter! Come with me!" Lu Chen waved, and several people followed Lu Chen into the greenhouse.

Entering the greenhouse, the unique smell of green plants directly filled everyone's hearts. Looking at the familiar green leeks and cabbage, as well as some unknown green crops, Lu Chen and Liu Jing, and others They were all surprised.

"What do you mean by the large-scale construction projects?" Du Yanliang, who had calmed down in shock for a long time, looked at Lu Chen and asked. He had a feeling that Lu Chen's so-called "large-scale construction projects" should be to promote this kind of greenhouses in Zhuangzi.

"That's right! I have successfully tested it and am planning to promote this greenhouse throughout Zhuangzi!" Lu Chen nodded, confirming Du Yanliang's idea, "I just don't know if the farmers are willing or not!" Lu Chen looked at it with a smile. Du Yanliang.

"If anyone doesn't want to, I'll break his legs!" Hearing Lu Chen's words, Du Yanliang said with a fierce look in his eyes, "Young master, this is a matter of great virtue. If anyone dares to cheat, I'll break his legs!" The first one doesn’t agree!”

"Gou boy, take Aye and the others to the front hall and wait for me!" Lu Chen couldn't help laughing when he saw Du Yanliang's fierce appearance. He didn't expect that Du Yanliang, who always appeared as a gentle old man, could actually say Say such cruel words.

"Yes!" After leaving the greenhouse, Liu Jing followed Lu Chen's instructions and took Aye and Du Yanliang to the front hall to wait. Lu Chen returned to the study and found the drawings of the glass greenhouse he designed. , came to the front hall with the drawings.

"Can something like this be made?" Lu Chen, who returned to the front hall, laid out the channel steel drawings on the table and asked Liu Laosan to come over and take a look.

"There should be no problem!" Liu Laosan saw Lu Chen's channel steel drawing and pondered it for a while, then nodded firmly, "Sir, it's not difficult to make this thing, you just need to make a good mold!"

"In that case, you should be responsible for this matter! I have already indicated on the drawing how much channel steel is needed for a glass greenhouse, so first..." Lu Chen thought about it for a moment, "Let's prepare the materials for five greenhouses first!" After all, Lu Chen still had to test whether the glass greenhouse was really possible. If he built one, the data would be unreliable. If he built five, Lu Chen felt that the data would be about the same.

"Yes! Sir!" Liu Laosan solemnly put the drawings away and put them in his arms. Then he bowed and saluted Lu Chen, "I'll let the craftsmen start work now!"

"Yeah! Go!" Lu Chen nodded.

Liu Laosan bowed to Lu Chen again and hurriedly left the front hall.

"This is a glass greenhouse. The size of the glass required and the drawings of how to install the glass greenhouse are left to Chengze!" Lu Chen handed over the overall installation drawings of the glass greenhouse to Du Chengze.

Du Chengze took the drawings with his hands as if he had found a treasure. As for the dimensions, after Lu Chen taught Liu Laosan, Liu Laosan also taught them to the craftsmen. After all, Lu Chen often gave the drawings to Liu. Lao San and Lu Chen only wanted finished products, so the review of dimensions and molds was left to Liu Lao San. He would not teach the craftsmen, but let him do it by himself, which would make him exhausted.

Du Chengze, like Liu Laosan, solemnly put the drawings in his arms and left the front hall. In this way, only Du Chengze and Liu Jing were left in the front hall. Liu Jing was responsible for the preliminary stage. The function of passing messages and adding tea to Lu Chen.

"Mr. Du, what do you think we need to pay attention to if this greenhouse is built?" Lu Chen picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, looking at Du Yanliang and asked.

"My lord, I think that for such a valuable thing, we should be careful not to let Xiaoxiao covet it!" Du Yanliang cupped his hands towards Lu Chen and said bluntly.

"Oh?" After hearing Du Yanliang's words, Lu Chen raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Du Yanliang with interest, "I would like to hear the details!"

"Master! From my perspective, after offending Xiao Yu, Wang Gui, Wei Ting and Zheng Shanguo, you have become a thorn in the family's side!" Du Yanliang looked at Lu Chen and said solemnly. , "What's more, the Lord has made such pure colored glaze. You must know that Hu Shang's colored glaze is regarded as a treasure by those aristocratic families. If this glass of the Marquis comes to the world, I am afraid that those aristocratic families will covet it extremely. This wealth is very touching. What's more, if the Marquis has created such a rare treasure, those aristocratic families will probably do whatever it takes!" At this point, a worried look appeared on Du Yanliang's face.

"What a rare treasure!" Hearing Du Yanliang say that "glass" is a rare treasure, Lu Chen laughed directly, "After a while, I will casually make hundreds or thousands of dollars of that thing in a day. From now on, this thing It might be cheaper than water spinach!" Lu Chen said with a smile, "How is this colored glaze made? I believe Mr. Du also knows, right?"

Except for the steel workshop, which is Lu Chen's arsenal, other workshops can be said to be open to Du Yanliang. After all, Du Yanliang has always been the "village official" of Lujiazhuang, responsible for managing all Huangzhuang households except Xingzai. Now Huangzhuang was given to Lu Chen and became Lujiazhuang. Du Yanliang, the "village official", naturally resigned from his post, but Lu Chen gave Du Yanliang a new position, that is, the "village chief" of Lujiazhuang.

"Yes! This old man knows about this, but those aristocratic families don't! If the father-in-law sells this glass outside now, it will definitely cause an uproar!" Du Yanliang looked at Lu Chen's indifferent expression and reminded Lu Chen again .

"I have also considered this matter! Mr. Du must have already known about the arrival of King Rencheng today, right?" Lu Chen looked at Du Yanliang and smiled.

"I have indeed heard about this!" Du Yanliang nodded. As the village chief, Du Yanliang naturally knew about Li Daozong's arrival.
