Chapter 266 Gu Ji encounters a series of "fatal questions"
Gu Jishen had a good-looking face with red lips and white teeth, and his temperament was elegant and gentle.
He looks like a scholar, but not weak.
He is respectful but not afraid of himself, neither humble nor arrogant, and knows when to advance and retreat. At first glance, he has a very family-oriented style.
He also has a family-oriented look.
The faces of the other members of the Gu family flashed through Prince Li's mind, and he secretly admired them in his heart. It seemed that the Gu family had an extraordinary temperament, which always gave him the feeling that they were not from this world.
So although the Gu family is just an ordinary citizen, every time he meets a member of the Gu family, he treats them as equals like friends from the bottom of his heart.
When I think of the emperor's grandson again, I feel that the emperor's grandson has been in contact with the Gu family for a long time, and his temperament is becoming more and more like the Gu family.
If I have more contact with them in the future, maybe I can get some of the magic. Even if I don’t, the telescope and the magic medicine...
For myself, there are many benefits.
King Li smiled and nodded, saying with satisfaction: "No need to be polite, please take a seat!"
"I thank Your Majesty for granting me a seat." After bowing to express his gratitude, Gu Ji followed his second uncle's lead and sat down properly.
After another round of greetings.
Gu Dajiang then told Prince Li the purpose of his visit. "Prince, do you remember what I told you about building a shopping center? We are here to prepare for its construction."
"I remember that the cement you mentioned is also very useful. I have ordered the county magistrates on the border to help reinforce the city wall.
I have been looking forward to your shopping mall for a long time. I still remember to recommend some craftsmen to you.
But your house is really unique, I wonder if the person I recommend is qualified for the job!" said King Li.
Upon hearing this, Gu Dajiang said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, this is not a problem. My nephew has already built several houses at home with his men.
He has accumulated some experience. I brought him out this time to supervise the construction. If the craftsmen encounter something they don’t understand, he can also answer them. "
“Oh, building houses has been a skill passed down from generation to generation since ancient times.
The construction of your new type of house is also a skill, and this skill will be more valuable in the future.
Just teach it to others casually like this?" King Li asked curiously.
Although Gu Dajiang spoke modestly, King Li already understood his meaning, which was to let his nephew teach the craftsman.
Now that Daxia has made its own cement, he is sure that many people will follow suit once the Gu family’s new house is unveiled.
By then, the craftsmen who can build this kind of house will surely double their worth.
He didn't believe that the Gu family hadn't thought of it, but they still did it. The Gu family really...
Even if you are rich and powerful, you don’t treasure your technology!
Just as he was thinking this, he heard Gu Dajiang say, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. This is not a great skill.
After all, we provided the construction materials, so we can't blame the craftsmen for not knowing how to do it. It is only right for us to teach them.
Moreover, the court already has a cement workshop. Once our shopping center is launched, other businesses will follow suit, which can also boost the sales of cement in the court.
If the masters learn and spread the skills, more people in Daxia will benefit from it. If you think about it this way, why not do it? "
Prince Li looked at Gu Dajiang in shock, his eyes switching back and forth between the faces of the uncle and nephew of the Gu family.
It can be seen that these words came from Gu Dajiang's heart, and the eldest grandson of their Gu family also had a face full of approval.
King Li was even more satisfied with the Gu family. The Gu family had such a broad mind and ambition, and the next generation of the Gu family was able to stand on their own at a young age.
Moreover, growing up together with the next generation of emperors, the Gu family’s future is limitless!
"I admire the Gu family's broad-mindedness. I will definitely give orders to carefully select talents and hand them over to Professor Aji." King Li said happily.
The uncle and nephew bowed modestly and said, "We dare not, we dare not."
King Li called his followers and gave them instructions.
The attendant then left to make arrangements.
King Li looked at Gu Ji and felt more and more satisfied. "Aji, how old are you this year?"
When Gu Ji was called, he quickly stood up and saluted, then replied: "Your Highness, I am fifteen years old this year."
Seeing this, Prince Li smiled kindly and waved his hand, saying, "Don't be so reserved, just sit down and answer. I have dealt with your uncle many times.
Your Gu family has helped me a lot. In my heart, I have long regarded your Gu family as my good friends. If you are willing, you can just call me uncle when there are no outsiders around. "
The reason why they are not allowed to shout in front of outsiders is because they are afraid that the Gu family will be criticized.
Gu Ji’s inner thoughts: …I dare not, you are the prince.
Gu Dajiang: The prince spread rumors to my face, how should I respond? Waiting online! It's urgent!
But the prince has already condescended to speak, and it would be difficult to refuse him.
Gu Dajiang hurriedly stood up and bowed, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"
Seeing that his second uncle had accepted it, Gu Ji also bowed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, uncle!"
King Li waved his hand in satisfaction, "Everyone, sit down, everyone, let's chat casually."
"Yes,"
So next, Gu Ji faced a series of questions.
Prince Li: "In Daxia, people usually get married early. At your age, you will get married in one or two years, right?"
Gu Ji: ...
Gu Dajiang's inner thoughts: What does your lord mean by this? !
Prince Li: "Whose girl is this? What's her character like?"
Gu Ji: ...
Gu Dajiang’s inner thoughts: Haha, what does the prince mean?
King Li: "Why is there no engagement?"
Gu Ji: ...
Gu Dajiang's inner thoughts: Your Highness, you are so gossipy. Who says that engagement is a must? None of my boys are engaged, what do you want?
King Li: "It is the right way to start a family first and then establish a career."
Gu Ji: ...
Gu Dajiang’s inner thoughts: So, Your Majesty, what do you mean?
Prince Li: "What kind of personality do you like in a woman? Tell your uncle and he will help you find one."
Gu Ji, who couldn't bear it any longer, stood up and bowed, saying, "Thank you very much, uncle, for your concern. I'm sorry. You guys chat first, I'm going to change my clothes first."
Gu Ji finished his words quickly, bowed hastily, and without waiting for King Li to respond, he rushed out of the door with a red face.
When you walk out of the door, you can still hear the happy laughter of Li Wang and Gu Dajiang in the house.
Prince Li knew what he wanted to know, and Gu Dajiang also figured it out. Prince Li might be trying to be a matchmaker for his nephew.
Although he was happy in his heart, he didn't ask more questions since King Li didn't explain it clearly.
After another cup of tea, two people who looked like craftsmen came in.
The two men bowed respectfully to King Li, and King Li told them the purpose of summoning them.
When the two craftsmen heard that a new type of house was going to be built, they showed great interest. "I wonder what kind of house it is? Do you have a model to show off?" asked one of the craftsmen.
At this time, the craftsmen already knew how to make models out of mud for people to see, so they asked this question at this time.
Gu Dajiang hurriedly took out the rendering of his niece's painting from his arms.
In addition to the renderings drawn by my niece, there are also floor plans drawn by Zhibao based on the house data.
