The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

The next day Fang Xuanling went to see Li Shimin.

Li Shimin asked him as soon as he saw him coming.

"How did you do what I asked you to do yesterday?"

Fang Xuanling said.

"I went to see the Sixth Prince yesterday, and he agreed to give us a total of 300 professional highway construction experts! I believe that with the addition of these experts, our highway will be able to proceed as scheduled."

But Li Shimin said: "Why are there only 300 people? Why not 3000 people?"

In his opinion, the more such talents, the better.

But how could there be so many such talents? Although there were many employees in the entire Shengtang Group, they were all from all walks of life. It was good to be able to provide 300 people. Li Shimin actually thought there were few?
Fang Xuanling was a little dizzy. This was the highest number of people he had ever obtained. No matter how many people there were, the Shengtang Group would not be able to do so because they had other things to do.

But Li Shimin doesn't understand. He doesn't understand, so he has to explain himself.

So, he continued.

"Your Majesty! The more people, the better. The main thing is to assist, and if multiple highways are being built at the same time, there may be some problems with the connection. If there is a problem with the connection, it means there is some work. It was done in vain. Some materials were wasted. This is unacceptable to us at the moment. Not only wasting materials and manpower, it was also a waste of time."

Li Shimin agreed with Fang Xuanling's statement.

"What you said makes sense, but I haven't thought about it. So these 300 people can build a highway of twenty miles?"

This is a professional question.

Fang Xuanling added: "On average, each section of expressway requires only 20 people based on 20 miles. These 300 people are experts, and they will coordinate the work. If there are 20 people, there will be fifteen such teams, and then Three hundred miles can be constructed at one time! As far as I know, it takes three months to build a 300-mile highway, which means that it can be built to a length of 3000 miles in three months. In one year, it can be built to a length of more than 3000 miles. . Our early planning for the highway is almost [-] miles, which means that the early planning can be completely completed within one year. Then during the planning and construction process, we can continue to plan. Plan the next highway .”

Li Shimin had never thought about this, so after hearing what Fang Xuanling said, Li Shimin nodded.

"That's it. It's very good. I really didn't expect that that kid has such ability!"

"It's not just that. I also heard that their 300 people will also bring about 3000 people to study, which means that after these highways are built, there will be a large number of experts. For the future, we want to continue to expand It’s a very good start for the highway.”

Listen to what Fang Xuanling said.

Li Shimin was very happy.

"Then we can have the highway repaired soon."

"Yes, soon, even the materials must be supplied, otherwise it will be difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice, and it will be useless no matter how many people you have!"

"That's inevitable. Don't worry, I've already asked someone to do it!"

Li Shimin also does things very quickly. He has good habits and finishes everything today.

This was influenced by Li Min.

He is very efficient in doing things for Li Min.

In this case, it will not affect the progress of the following things.

And he often asks everyone to get things done ahead of time.

"Your Majesty is indeed very fast."

Fang Xuanling said quickly.

"Okay! Then you have to follow up on this next matter and make sure there are no mistakes."

"understand!"

Although Fang Xuanling knew what Li Shimin was going to do for him next, it might be more than that. But this is what he has to do.

If he didn't do it, Li Shimin would blame him again.

At this time, he thought of Dai Zhou again.

If Dai Zhou was here, then Dai Zhou must have done this.

Because there are also issues of appropriation involved.

Dai Zhou can never run away.

Now that Dai Zhou has gone to Dongzhou, all the pressure is on Fang Xuanling.

Plus Cheng Yaojin is not here either. But if Cheng Yaojin was here, he wouldn't be able to help.

"Okay, if there is nothing else, then you can go ahead and implement it. For some planning issues, you can discuss them yourself. I only want to see the results."

"Yes, I will go out first."

"Go!"

But when Fang Xuanling was about to leave the palace, an official ran in excitedly.

He took a closer look and saw that it was Duan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

He said: "Your Majesty! There is something urgent."

Li Shimin was confused, what happened?

Duan Lun is so anxious.

At the same time, Fang Xuanling did not leave, but stood by and listened. He also wanted to know what was going on.

Why is Duan Lun so anxious? You know, he is not young anymore, and it is rare to be so anxious.

Li Shimin looked at him like this and asked directly: "What's the matter?" "

"Your Majesty, since last night, the number of applications for new land houses has increased sharply. Last night alone, we received nearly [-] applications. I thought this was abnormal. So hurry up and ask your Majesty to enter the palace. Decide.”

"Then where is the scope of the application? In Chang'an or elsewhere?"

Fang Xuanling asked immediately.

When he asked this question, Li Shimin seemed to notice something. At this time, he was keenly aware of doubts.

Duan Lun said: "They are all near Chang'an City. And these locations are a bit strange. Some of them are incredible. I have mapped all these locations. Your Majesty, please check!"

"let me see!"

Li Shimin gestured.

Duan Lun then placed a picture in front of Li Shimin for use.

Fang Xuanling followed and came over.

When he saw this map, he couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Isn't this the route in our highway construction plan?"

Fang Xuanling's words made Li Shimin feel that something was wrong.

Then Fang Xuanling said: "Did someone leak the highway plan?"

Duan Lun also heard about the highway.

When he said this, Li Shimin suddenly felt something bad.

If so, who leaked it?
If this is the case, has the entire Chang'an City already heard the news?

These people are also very perceptive. Knowing the area around the highway is sure to spark some prosperity.

So everyone wants to build houses quickly before the highway is built.

"When will the planning map be released?" Duan Lun asked.

"It came out last night. I didn't bother to keep it secret at the time. Maybe it was written down by someone." Fang Xuanling gave birth.

At this time, Li Shimin murmured: "What are these people thinking? Do they want to build houses before the imperial court builds the highway? And then let the imperial court expropriate the land? Do they want to make profits from it?"

Building highways requires land acquisition.

Because highways will inevitably cover residential areas.

Even across several residential areas.

Once it crosses a residential area, the land will be expropriated.

If these lands are expropriated, a large amount of money will be spent to resettle these villagers. So I don’t know who leaked the plan and let these villagers get the news.

Not only these villagers, but also some wealthy people in Chang'an also participated.

An application was made for land to build a house.

Now at this time, Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, this matter must be investigated."

Duan Lun then said: "Yes, if this is the case, it will put great pressure on the Ministry of Industry. These people are opportunistic and really hateful." The two of them talked to each other.

Li Shimin thought for a while, but he didn't make any choice.

Instead, he thought for a while, thinking about what Li Min would do if this happened to him.

Therefore, he cannot make a decision directly.

You have to take your time.

What would Li Min do?
When something like this happens, Li Min will not punish these people directly, nor will he cut off everyone's path.

Instead, it will do something unexpected.

Therefore, Li Shimin thought of what Li Min would do next.

So he said: "If this is the case, then approve them directly."

Fang Xuanling was puzzled.

"Your Majesty, if this happens, our costs will be high. The demolition costs for these people alone will be too high. And by making this decision, Your Majesty is condoning these people."

Duan Lun followed up and said: "Yes, Your Majesty, I think it is better not to give a reply. If you give a reply, it is not good."

Li Shimin smiled.

The two of them wondered why he was laughing.

"Your Majesty, are you?"

So, the two asked.

Then, Li Shimin said: "Our expressway can be slowed down a little longer. When they finish building the houses, we will make other plans. These people are equivalent to contributing to the construction of Datang."

It can be said that Li Shimin's move was very cruel.

In this case, it is equivalent to letting these people work for Datang, and he only needs to move the highway a little bit to the side. As long as it does not involve demolition, everything will be easy to handle.

As soon as Fang Xuanling heard what Li Shimin said.

Immediately shocked.

At this time, they admired Li Shimin very much.

Most people can't think of such a solution.

"Your Majesty, this is indeed a smart idea. It can also boost the economy along the expressway. In this way, the surrounding area can be prosperous." Fang Xuanling said.

He didn't know that Li Shimin did this because of Li Min.

He thought that Li Min would do the same, so he followed suit.

"Then, can I ask for approval now about those people building houses?"

"Yes, it can be approved. In this way, some of Datang's resources can be developed. In this case, the demand will be high, and we can make more money from the cement and other things we produce. In this way, we will not lose money because of Building highways has been losing money!”

Fang Xuanling understood.

"Does that mean that before the highway is built, the court can still make a lot of money from these building materials?"

"That's right, that's what I think."

I have to say that Li Shimin also has a very good mind.

It's possible to think of such a thing.

Of course, all this was due to Li Min's influence.

This is exactly how Li Min does things.

Li Shimin just did the same.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Duan Lun said quickly.

"Then what should we do with the person who leaked the secret?" Fang Xuanling asked again at this time.

"The person who leaked the secret will be investigated strictly and he must be punished. I will let others do this. Then you should know how to do the next thing, right?"

Li Shimin said again.

"Understood, I will go to Shengtang Group to make a new drawing first, and this drawing must be kept secret!" Fang Xuanling said.

Duan Lun said: "I will go and approve it now and let them build houses."

"Okay! You can do it now." Li Shimin continued.

"Yes!"

So, the two of them left the palace.

Li Shimin, on the other hand, looked at the sky.

He murmured: "I really didn't expect Li Min's way of doing things to be so useful."

If it were before, Li Shimin would probably kill someone.

But now, it's different.

On the contrary, he supported it.

This is the current brilliance of Li Shimin.

This is also what he thinks is Li Min's excellence.

He had never thought of learning from Li Min before, but now, he wanted to learn from what Li Min did.

I really didn't expect that such a miraculous effect could be achieved.

At this time Queen Changsun came out from behind.

She heard everything she said just now.

She walked towards Li Shimin's place.

"Your Majesty, you have changed!"

"Have I changed? How have I changed?" Li Shimin asked doubtfully.

"His Majesty has become wiser and has become more wise in ruling the Tang Dynasty. In the past, if His Majesty knew that some information was leaked, he would be furious, kill some people, and stop everyone's actions, but now His Majesty has I stopped doing that. Such a change is shocking and admirable." Empress Changsun said.

The reason why she said this was because she saw the changes in Li Shimin.

This change can take Datang's development to a higher level.

"Really?" Although Li Shimin didn't want to admit it, it was true.

All of this was influenced by Li Min.

But Li Shimin still said: "Maybe it's because I have been reading books recently and learned from them."

He attributed all this to books.

"If this is the case, then we should let the people read more!"

Queen Changsun said so.

"Yes, yes, I will issue an order to encourage people to read more books, and give some rewards to let them study more. Of course, we will also introduce some skills learning methods so that everyone can learn more skills and earn more money. yes."

Li Shimin thought a lot, and just looking at the matter of generating income for the people, he was indeed very foresight.

In this way, Empress Changsun really believed that he had read more books.

After all, he would not have implemented these policies before.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"By the way, did Lizhi go back to your place last night?"

"It was too late later. I didn't let her come back. Besides, she also has a family, so there was no need for her to stay with me all the time."

Empress Changsun said so.

"That's true too."

Li Shimin nodded in agreement.
