Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 683 A Rare Rest
Chapter 679

Wei Hao was very annoyed thinking about the next thing to do with electric lights. Originally, it would be fine to decorate his own home, but Chengtian Palace and the Imperial Palace must be installed.
In addition, the East Palace also needs to be installed, and the homes of those state officials also need to be installed. After this, there are still many problems to be solved. The first is the problem of power generation, and the next is the problem of transformers and circuit transmission. These are all needed now. To solve it, Wei Hao wants to find someone to help, but there is no one now, so he can only do it himself.

"Okay, if you feel tired, you can rest for a few more days and go fishing. I'll get you the fishing gear from my father's side. If he doesn't give it to me, I'll set him on fire. No, definitely not for him!" Li Lizhi said with a smile when she saw Wei Hao sitting there depressed.

"You can pull it down, your father will really beat you then!" Wei Hao said with a smile as soon as he heard it.

"What are you afraid of, just hit him, hmph, am I still afraid of him?" Li Lizhi said proudly, then gave Wei Hao Sheng millet porridge,
After Wei Hao finished eating, he stood up and moved around for a while, and then began to sit in front of the desk, but when he was writing, Li Lizhi didn't let anyone go to disturb him,
The next day, after Wei Hao got up, he lay on the side of the greenhouse, he didn't want to move, he was too lazy to move, he was going to Qujiang, but he still didn't want to move.
For the next few days, Wei Hao hid at home and didn't come out. He didn't see anyone who wanted to see him, and he didn't go out whoever invited him to play.
This morning, at Chengtian Palace, Li Shimin asked Li Chengqian, Li Ke, and Li Tai after finishing the memorial.

"Shen Yong hasn't gone out these days? Why are you at home?"

"I don't know. I went to their house, but I didn't see anyone. My sister said, no one was there. You said my sister was guarding the door, who can go in? Later, the pharmacist uncle is going to visit, and then Li Siyuan also blocked the door and said No see!" Li Tai stood there and said to Li Shimin.

"Why?" Li Shimin then asked.

"How do I know? I also asked my sister. My sister said that my brother-in-law was exhausted before, and now he wants to rest for a few days!" Li Tai immediately said to Li Shimin.

"If that's the case, it's fine. Let him rest for a few more days. This year, the child is indeed exhausted. Regarding the plan of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, have you read it? It is to encourage children.
If a couple has three children, it is tax-free. If five children are born, each child will be rewarded with 50 cash per month and tax-free. If there are more than 5 children, then each child will be rewarded every month. 100 Wen, and at the same time, the government provides all the children's school fees, what do you think? " Li Shimin sat there and said.

"Father, the cost will be too high. I have calculated that there are about 1000 million women in my Tang Dynasty who can give birth. Some of them have given birth to five, and some have not yet. I will count them all. More than five, father, you need more than 500 million yuan a month,

Father, we can't bear it. I have calculated that all the income of our Tang Dynasty, including the income of those workshops, after a year, more than 3000 million yuan, is enough to last for 6 months.

Moreover, if such a policy comes out, then those women will definitely have children, and they will definitely give birth to so many children. I mean, tax exemption, and at the same time do not provide financial support for the previous children, that is, provide from the fourth , so that our pressure will be much less! "Li Chengqian stood there and said.

"What about your plan?" Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and asked.

"Starting from the fourth child, the fourth one is 50 Wen. The fifth one is 60 Wen and so on. In this way, Erchen has calculated that the cost will be more than 1000 million yuan per year at most. We can still afford this kind of expenditure. from the

Erchen also asked the Ministry of Household Statistics, there are still 13 million girls from 17 to 600 years old, and 10 million girls from 13 to 1100 years old, that is to say, after 7 years, these girls will also start to give birth After one child, it will take more than 6 years to give birth to the fourth child.
At that time, the population of Datang may exceed 2 million. At this time, we can continue to fight to the west. That is to say, it will take 13 years before we have such a large population, and we are still children mostly! "Li Chengqian stood there and said.

"After 13 years, many of the 5000 million people now have grown up. Well, I can wait, I can wait!" Li Shimin said while sitting there, nodding his head.

"Yes, I mean the same thing, don't worry, now our Tang Dynasty also needs to develop, and we also need to understand the strength of other countries, I have ordered the spy to go to various directions to investigate!" Li Chengqian nodded and said.

"The housing problem can be solved by Erchen. According to the current growth rate of Chang'an, the population will definitely exceed 13 million in 1 years, and we can live there. Now we are also building houses, that is, building six-story buildings. !" Li Tai also said to Li Shimin.

"My son also wants to go to Taiyuan. Taiyuan is very important. I hope that it will become a big city in the central part and connect to the northwest!" Li Ke said standing there.

"Yes, Taiyuan, Luoyang, Chang'an, three cities, three legs stand together, yes!" Li Shimin nodded and said.

"However, there are not so many workshops in the past, and it is estimated that they will not be able to keep so many people. My son wants Shen Yong to put the telegraph workshop in Taiyuan, and all the workshops related to electric lights should be located in Taiyuan. Check the population!" Li Ke then said to Li Shimin.

"I have to ask Shen Yong about this. I talked with Shen Yong about the telegraph machine. He said that this needs to be managed by the Ministry of Industry. This belongs to the court and cannot be controlled privately. It's just that no one understands it now, so Wei Hao To control, but the workers over there must be trustworthy, so when the Ministry of Industry picks people up, Shen Yong may not be able to make it through, Shen Yong is very busy!" Li Shimin said as he sat there.

"Well. What about the lights?" Li Ke also looked at Li Shimin and asked.

"Okay! Go talk to Shen Yong, I guess Shen Yong has no objections!" Li Shimin nodded and said.

"That's good, then Erchen will go talk to Shen Yong!" Li Ke nodded and said.

"Well, next, I need to rest for a year or two. I can't fight. Let's stabilize it first. We can digest the territories we control now. We can't look at the large area we are fighting, but if we can't control it, it's useless !” Li Shimin said as he sat there.

"Yes, father and son also mean the same thing. Now we need to accumulate wealth. Once we fight with those big countries, we need to be prepared for a long-term battle!" Li Chengqian nodded and said.

"Okay!" Li Shimin nodded,

After chatting about other things for a while, Li Shimin let them go to work. Now that the three of them are sincerely cooperating, there are many things that I don’t need to worry about. It is much larger than the Sui Dynasty, and its strength is also much stronger, and the people's life is better than that of the previous dynasty.

Therefore, Li Shimin is a little proud in his heart now. At this moment, Li Shimin is sitting on the fifth floor, looking at the scenery outside. It is estimated that it will start to snow this day, but now he is not afraid of heavy snow. The people near Chang'an are basically They are all replaced with green brick and tile houses, and the snow is difficult to collapse. Even if the houses collapse, it is estimated that there are only a few of them. There will not be a large number of casualties, and there will be no freezing to death.

Stoves are very popular now, and coal has started to be burned. Now coal is very useful. Just digging coal can bring you more than 300 million yuan in profits a year. Many workshops are now also a large amount. Use coal.

"Well, come here!" Li Shimin sat there and shouted.

"Your Majesty!" Wang De came over immediately.

"Go to Shenyong's mansion, and tell him that I asked him to fish, and I will wait for him over there, and tell him that there is nothing to do, just go fishing, don't worry!" Li Shimin said to Wang De with a smile,

Wang De laughed when he heard it. After Wei Hao received the news at the mansion, he was skeptical, saying that there was nothing wrong, and there must be something wrong in the end, but Li Shimin summoned him, so he couldn't go.

"Father is also resting well at home, who wants to go fishing with him, really, I don't know what he thinks!" Li Lizhi said helplessly while sitting there.

"Don't care about him, since he told me to go, how dare I not go?" Wei Hao said with a wry smile.

"You, you are too honest. Why don't we move to Luoyang so that they don't bother us!" Li Lizhi asked after thinking for a while.

"Are you kidding me? Those kids can stand such a cold day. Let's go in the spring. I'll have to hide and rest for a few years!" Wei Hao said with a wry smile.

"Okay, let's go in spring, you have to remember!" Li Lizhi nodded and said, then Wei Hao went to the palace again, went straight to the lake, and saw that Li Shimin had already fished.

"Father!" Li Shimin went over and shouted.

"Why don't you even catch fish during the break?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao with a smile and asked.

"That's not fishing. The main reason is, hey, I'm tired, and I have to think about other things, so I can't come out at home." Wei Hao sat down with a wry smile.

"Well, let's take a break. Father doesn't urge you. You handled this matter very well. Father knows that there must be no problem in entrusting the matter to you. Now we have to wait and wait for the increase in the population of our Tang Dynasty." For this reason, I will have to pay over 1000 million yuan to the Ministry of Civil Affairs every year!" Li Shimin sat there and said with a smile.

"It's fine, anyway, the emperor's income is still good!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"Well, come here to fish if you have nothing to do. You don't want to go to other places, just come here to fish. Later, your mother will bring food. Your mother loves you!" Li Shimin said to Wei Hao.

"Hey!" Wei Hao smiled and didn't say anything.
In the evening, Empress Changsun really brought food over. Wei Hao and the three of them also sat in the tent to eat. Today, Empress Changsun deliberately didn't eat and came here to eat.

"Come on, Shenyong, these are all your favorite dishes. There is also this old hen soup with a lot of ginseng. It needs to be replenished. Look at you, your father is the same. When something happens, I think of you!" Empress Changsun Sitting there, Zhang Luo said to Wei Hao, and gave Wei Hao chicken soup.

"Thank you Queen Mother, it's fine, as long as I can solve the problem for Emperor Father!" Wei Hao said with a smile.

"Well, anyway, you just need to pay attention to rest. For the matter of electricity, my father won't rush you. You can do it whenever you want. Although my father likes it, I also know that this matter is not easy. What about Shen'er?" You need to go there more, he is still not as good as you, besides, those people will be your disciples in the future, it is not good for you as a master to not show your face." Sitting there, Li Shimin continued to Wei Hao .

"Yes, go another day!" Wei Hao nodded. After eating, it was already dark outside. Wei Hao supported Li Shimin with one hand and Empress Changsun with the other, and walked across the river. There was no way, it was snowing, A little slippery.

"Slow down on the road, the road is slippery, don't worry!" Empress Changsun told Wei Hao, Wei Hao nodded to show that he knew,

The next morning, Wei Hao went to Li Shenxuan's school, which was actually a royal academy, where Li Shen educated those people, all of them were thirteen or fourteen years old, and some were seven or eight years old, but not many .

"Master, are you here?" Li Shen saw Wei Hao coming, and ran over quickly. The snow is still very thick, but the snow on the road has been swept away.

"Well, let's take a look, master!" Wei Hao nodded with a smile.

"Master, this way please, hurry up and call sir!" Li Shen shouted loudly to those students who were standing far away, and those people immediately called sir.

"Master, they are all here. They are not bad. My disciples have tested them. They have good talents. Master, you can try it yourself?" Li Shen said to Wei Hao with a smile.

"You, you know how to cause trouble for the master, you know that the master is too busy, and you still cause such a thing for the master!" Wei Hao looked at Li Shen helplessly and said.

"Master, I also want to share the burden with you. You see, when we were making the telegraph, it was just the two of us. In fact, you were doing it alone. I thought, if there is a helper to do something, That's good, so, I thought, I want to help you train those disciples, master, although they may not be able to grow, but it's good if they can do it!" Li Shen said to Wei Hao with a smile.

"Well, but my father has high expectations for this place, and I hope the master will recruit more people!" Wei Hao said with a wry smile.

"Then recruit them. I'll help you manage them. If they don't obey, I'll deal with them!" Li Shen looked at Wei Hao and nodded.

"Look at it, you're half a bucket of water!" Wei Hao said as he patted Li Shen's head.

"That's better than them, better than many ministers outside!" Li Shen still said proudly.
