Chai Shao was baffled. When he left, these two were still embracing, and the ground was a mess of blood. Now they were fine?
Fang Er walked to the door, put on a glove, and took out broken bottle pieces from his pocket. There was still some residual wine juice on the mouth of the bottle. In front of everyone, he poured the little bit of wine into his mouth.
Then, with a wronged expression, he looked at Fang Xuanling: You owe me wine! This bottle is worth twenty taels of gold, and it was brought back from the Western Regions by Ma Chao!
Fang Xuanling could only accept it: Twenty taels it is, I'll pay you back later~~
Wait a minute! Li Shimin quickly interrupted him, You pay for it yourself, not from the national treasury, I won't acknowledge it!
Damn it, crashing seventy helicopters and you still want me to pay for wine, you stingy bastard!
Fang Xuanling was instantly stunned. Twenty taels of gold, he couldn't afford it even if he sold his family!
Tsk tsk tsk tsk~~ No money, why don't you quickly latch onto someone powerful?
Chai Shao finally came to his senses, looking at Fang Xuanling with a mocking expression and teasing him.
Everyone present was looking at him. Among the officials of the court, Old Fang was one of the few who hadn't partnered with Fang Er in business.
So, it was normal for him to be poor.
When Fang Xuanling heard Chai Shao's words, it was like seeing a lighthouse in the darkness. He looked at Fang Er obsequiously.
Heh heh heh heh, young friend, is there anything old man can do for you?
Fang Er glanced at his father-in-law. Was he trying to seize an opportunity?
And right in front of the Emperor?
Trying to pull Old Fang into trouble too?
Hey? Young friend, I've thought of a great business!
Before he could speak, Fang Xuanling slapped his forehead and shouted loudly.
After speaking, he put his hand into his mouth and pulled hard. The false teeth that Fang Er had given him were yanked out.
I feel like this business will definitely make money!
Du Ruhui suddenly stood up, walked to Fang Xuanling's side, and looked at the false teeth in his hand in disbelief.
You can even take this thing out?
Didn't you say a divine doctor gave you a prescription, and your new teeth have grown back?
Liar! Big liar!
After speaking, he licked the few remaining teeth in his mouth with his tongue and returned to his chair resentfully.
Duke Fang, you have foresight! It's settled. Dentures, and glasses too, shall I hand over the business to you as well?
You're busy making money for the empire every day, leave the business of making money for your own family to Yi Ai, let him come to Shenyang, and you can send people to assist him.
This kind of small business was almost nothing to Fang Er, otherwise, he would have had people do it long ago.
Fang Xuanling was overjoyed upon hearing this: Hahahaha, my young friend is generous! I'll send someone to the Ministry of Revenue later, and we'll settle our previous accounts properly!
The national treasury has money, and the accounts owed to you over the years can also be settled.
Du Ruhui:......
Chai Shao, Li Xiaogong, and others:......
This guy is shameless!
This is blatant bribery, and yet it's done in a way that leaves people speechless!
Even Li Shimin looked at him helplessly. Old Fang has learned to be bad!
The helicopter order has been finalized, a total of thirty units.
The next day, when Zhang Tian returned from Chang'an, another long-distance mission fell upon him.
Fly to Nanyue to deliver a radio to Qin Qiong.
Not only Nanyue, but also Dengzhou, Tuban Prefecture, Guizi Prefecture, Yangzhou, and other major protectorates will be equipped.
In the following days, the brave warrior Wei Xuancheng, like a valiant warrior, traversed north and south of the Great Tang, delivering radio equipment to the various protectorates.
Just as addictive as online chatting was in his previous life, Li Shimin was equally addicted now.
Every day, he would drag Li Xiaogong and others to the radio, chatting happily with Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde, and others.
Zhi Jie, I ate a millstone-sized crab today!
Shu Bo, is it hot in the south? I'm in Shenyang, and it's very cool!
Jing De, how tall is the grass in your area?
Gong Jin, is it dry in the south?
Yao Shi, what's in today's headlines?
~~~~~~~
While claiming it was to understand the customs and livelihoods of various parts of the empire, in Fang Er's opinion, this guy was simply creating a group chat.
Because they were all using the same password, every telegram sent was received and deciphered by everyone.
It wasn't until Li Shimin had his fill that he remembered his original purpose for coming to Shenyang.
One day, he uncharacteristically put down the radio and led Li Xiaogong and others to find Fang Er: Kid, is the ammunition for the hovercraft ready?
I want to see Silver Mountain.
It's ready long ago, we can depart anytime. Fang Er replied with a nod.
For the rockets, Yuan Tiangang led the team, Niuhuang and his apprentices assisted, and the firearm workshop also sent skilled craftsmen.
The daily output was basically maintained at around 50 rounds.
The hovercraft were equipped with two 22-tube launchers, with a standard supply of 132 rounds per ship, which was enough for three volleys.
The production of 30mm cannon shells was even faster, with semi-automatic mechanical stamping, the daily output was in the thousands, so the supply was already sufficient.
Li Shimin was overjoyed: Then prepare, we will set sail for Wafu tomorrow!
The next morning, three hovercraft were lined up neatly outside the Duke's Mansion.
Li Shimin, Li Xiaogong, and Li Ji all boarded the ships. Even Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Wei Zheng also boarded.
Chai Shao couldn't leave. He was both the Protector of Liaodong and Fang Er's father-in-law. Shenyang was Fang Er's base camp, so someone had to keep an eye on it.
The Xuanjia Army brought five hundred men, and Fang Er also brought his torch squad of thirteen people, including Wang Xuance, onto the ship.
Just as they were about to set sail, Empress Zhangsun, holding Changle's small hand, led Chai Yue and the others over. She smiled slightly at Li Shimin and Fang Er and the others on the ship.
Your Majesty, please wait.
Changle has been pestering me for a long time, insisting on coming along to see. Since there's no battle, why don't you take her with you?
As she said this, she deliberately winked at Li Shimin and gestured towards Fang Er with her finger.
If Old Li didn't understand her meaning, would he still be worthy of being her husband?
So he smiled and said: Hahahaha, good! Come, Changle, come to Father!
Changle's small face was flushed, and she dared not look at Fang Er. After leaving Zhangsun's delicate hand, she walked to the side of the ship and was sent onto it by the two strong women who had followed her from the palace.
After sending Changle up, the two strong women turned back to Empress Zhangsun.
Fang Er was dumbfounded. Why would this young girl Changle go out to sea with a group of men?
Moreover, it seemed that the Empress did not allow the two strong women to accompany them. If something happened, it would be inconvenient for these men to intervene, right?
So he asked Li Shimin: Your Majesty, aren't you bringing a servant for Changle?
Li Shimin waved his hand and said: What servants! If anything happens, you can help Changle!
Fang Er:......
Is this something a father would do???
How about I bring a couple of maids to serve on the ship?
Li Shimin glared at him and reprimanded: What maids! Do you want to do something unfaithful to Yue'er?
Thus, with Fang Er's endless helplessness, the fleet set sail.
