Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 934
waste?

Li Shimin shook his head slightly: "Ai Qing, I know that the Tang Dynasty's supplies are getting more and more tense at the moment. I heard that if the Governor of Chang'an hadn't ordered a special order to guarantee the purchase of pure white velvet and white velvet flowers for newborn children and young children, I am afraid that the children will not be able to buy them all. There are no cotton-padded quilts or padded jackets, and now it’s not the same as before, how can people be allowed to wear paper clothes and rough linen clothes again.”

"Yes, what the sage said is true." Li Jing also understood that it is easy to go from bottom to top, but difficult to go from top to bottom.

The common people have gotten used to a better life, but because of the incompetence of the imperial court, prices have soared and supplies are scarce. They can afford white suede and fine linen, but they have to buy coarse linen, or even worse clothing materials. The people will definitely complain, and they will only say that the governor of the state capital is incompetent.

"Also, sugar. Can you say you don't have a headache just for sugar?"

Li Jing nodded. When it comes to sugar, he is under more pressure. High-intensity training in the military requires more sugar and salt consumption. Datang's sugar supply has never been sufficient.

Right now, if it weren't for the large number of sugarcane fields on Qiandao Road, the sugar in Chang'an would be more expensive than silver.

"Also, I need coins. What I want is not to expand a high-yield steel workshop. I want to increase two, three, or even five. But without coins, how can I build a steel workshop? To build a high-yield, high-quality steel workshop requires Spend a lot of coins, and I need to get this part of the difference from the ground."

"I understand that I will send someone to arrange to sort out the official documents and report them to the Ministry of Finance today, and strive to have the fleet fully loaded and ready to go within fifteen days."

"Very well, remember one more thing. I really want to build a railway between Chang'an and Luoyang. I need countless coins and steel. I don't want to rush anyone, but I really want a timetable. And , the railway from Huayuan to Sanyuan, I also understand what Liu Mu said, that is a toy."

"I understand."

Li Jing felt more and more that Li Shimin's ambition for the world was extremely powerful.

Not only did Li Jing know about the railway from Huayuan to Sanyuan, he even studied it himself.

Although Liu Mu didn't look at it, he said it was a toy, because the train was propelled by three locomotives, two fronts and one rear. There were only thirteen carriages in total, and each carriage could only carry 180 shi.

The standard given by Liu Mu is that one front, [-] carriages, and each carriage must be able to carry at least [-] shi.

The total load of a real freight train should not be less than [-] shi.

If [-] shi were converted into tons, it would be [-] tons.This is a real train, not the experimental toy from Huayuan to Sanyuan. The total load capacity is only [-] shi, which is a little over [-] tons.

Just like every time Liu Mu wrote a letter to Li Shimin, he was used to writing each thing in a separate letter, even if it was repeated with other things, he was not afraid of wasting pen and ink and wrote things several times.

Slowly, Li Shimin discovered the benefits of this matter.

For example, Liumu discovered a gold mine and another coal mine. These are two letters.Then Willow's letter about the gold mine will write that he intends to build a secret mint in Mogadishu.

It will also be mentioned in the coal mine that this coal will provide enough coal for gold, silver, copper, and iron workshops.

If Li Shimin needed to discuss with that important minister, he would hand over a complete letter to the courtier to show that he, as the emperor, had great trust in the courtier and showed the complete letter to the courtier.

Of course, half of Liu Mu's letters were put away by Li Shimin alone.

So when Li Shimin wrote a letter to Liu Mu, he also wrote a separate letter for each matter. Unlike Liu Mu, Liu Mu asked Xiao Ling'er or Xie Xing'er to write for him ten times out of ten, while Li Shimin wrote it himself.

When the vanguard of the first navy arrived at the port of Magical Island for a short rest, Liumu was digging with tens of thousands of slaves, digging out countless pieces of land, whether it was mountains, flat land, or valleys. Big pit is coming.

When Dugu Shura saw Liu Mu, what he saw was one after another convoy transporting supplies to the wooden boats by the river.

When the two met, Liu Mu laughed happily: "You are here, so I feel at ease."

"Here I am. I brought a total of 84 battleships of three different types ranging from 520 to 640. Each ship has a minimum crew of [-] and a maximum of [-]."

Dugu Shura was talking, but saw that the smile on Liu Mu's face froze, and turned into bitterness.

Dugu Shura asked: "Could it be that there is no dock where these warships can dock?"

Willow shook his head.

Dugu Shura asked again: "Could it be that there is not enough food here?"

This time Liu Mu grabbed something on the donkey cart that was transporting supplies: "This is called cassava, wild, and it is poisonous if eaten raw, but it is conservatively estimated that the yield of [-] shi per hectare is not a problem, and some grow densely [-] I was not surprised by Shi. And there are countless bison here, and there are hundreds of thousands of acres of wheat fields that have been cultivated for almost a year."

"Then why are you worried, your expression is like someone owes you a lot of gold."

Liu Mu gave another bitter smile helplessly: "The saint sent almost half of Datang's main heavy battleships over, and the Marine Corps must have at least 1 people."

"It's 6000 people." Dugu Shura must have a specific number.

Liu Mu nodded: "With so many people sent here, there must be one or several saints who can exhaust me and worry about my request. It seems that my leisurely days are finally coming to an end."

laid back!

It's really leisurely. When Dugu Shura arrived in Spice Bay, he naturally went to see Princess Changping of the Tang Dynasty first. She had nothing to do with him in name, but in fact she was Dugu Shura's own sister.

At this time, what Dugu Lanruo does every day is to enjoy life leisurely.

Watching fish, teaching children, food, music, painting.

Dugu Shura also didn't know what task Tang Emperor Li Shimin would give Liu Mu, he was just responsible for bringing the iron box containing the secret letter to Liu Mu.

Dugu Shura pointed to the countless large and small pits here and asked Liu Mu: "What are you doing?"

"First of all, I need to find gold mines. In the process of discovering gold mines, I found many other mines. There are dozens of gemstone mines alone. I will temporarily record the location and seal them up. What I need most now are gold mines, Silver ore, copper ore, iron ore, carboniferous ore, feldspar, etc. There is no rush for gems and the like, because I took a job to help the Roman Empire make gold, silver, and copper coins."

Dugu Shura expressed his understanding.

Liu Mu pointed at the things pulled on the cart again: "This was discovered by accident. Although it is poisonous, the medical officer tried to soak it in water for five days. It is a very good food, mainly wild. There are countless, countless. It is also prepared to be planted in a special place, which is a good thing for wine making and people’s food, and the wine dregs is also a good thing for donkeys.”
