Cultivation of chastity

Chapter 110 Li Tai's Little Experiment
When Li Tai returned to Gaoling, he was quite serious about being a good baby, and the corvees returned to Gaoling one after another as the Weishui system ended.

With Li Tai as a person, can he just watch them rest?They immediately arranged for road repairs.

In the end, it was food and lodging plus five days off, and the food coupons in hand were all exchanged for supplies in Gaoling.

So these corvees rested for a few days, and after finding out that the food stamps in their hands were being spent rapidly, they decided to come back to work again.

After all, this kind of life didn't last long. It was almost winter, and Li Shimin officially decreed that after the summer harvest in Gaoling next year, Li Tai would be asked to supervise the renovation project of Zheng Baiqu as a prince, but Li Tai's position was still the county magistrate of Gaoling.

However, the implementation of Zheng Baiqu was handed over to Ma Zhou, who handled the water transportation quite well, and he was officially a doctor of the Ministry of Water.

Therefore, after Ma Zhou worked with Li Tai for two years, Ma Zhou successfully became a doctor in the fifth grade water department from a white clothes.

Moreover, Fang Xuanling also provided Li Tai with other officials, but these officials have not come yet.

Of course, the imperial court gave Li Tai more than half a year to prepare, so Li Tai could prepare for Zheng Baiqu's renovation work.

For example, the peripheral survey of the entire Zhengbai Canal, such as looking for start-up funds from the dignitaries, and at the same time, Ma Zhou himself has to finish the Weihe Water Transport and so on.

When Li Tai got the news, he immediately ran to Lu Cai's side, then casually searched for topics, and said to Lu Cai:

"Chu Zhi, Chu Suiliang and the others are studying at the agricultural school, are they doing well?"

"Please don't worry, Your Majesty, I will demand them with the strictest standards. However, they are elite talents. After adapting to the life of the school, it is too simple for them to meet the standards of the agricultural school." Lu Cai seriously road.

When Li Tai heard this, he nodded in understanding.

Strictly speaking, the knowledge of agricultural colleges is not advanced, and it is not difficult for people like them who already have a complete thinking system to learn.

In particular, Chu Suiliang is famous for his photographic memory. When it comes to exams or something, it really can't trouble him.

However, what agricultural colleges really want to cultivate is the scientific thinking of the students and the attitude of truly valuing the fields.

To a certain extent, if it is not for special talents who can stay in school after graduation, or become agricultural officials and warehouse officials, then the knowledge acquired in agricultural schools is only at the level of modern elementary schools, or even elementary schools.

"So I'm relieved!" Li Tai nodded indifferently, after all, this was not the main purpose of his coming.

Li Tai continued: "The growth of wheat this year has given Gaoling Agricultural College a good reputation.

Therefore, some students who have already graduated, or even transferred to become agricultural officials, can give priority to the irrigation areas of Zhengbaiqu, such as Yunyang, Jingyang, and Dongyang.

Since Aye asked me to supervise the construction of Zhengbaiqu, and Bin Wang, as the envoy of the water capital, will carry out the specific implementation, I need the underlying information.

So let the agricultural officials take root in these places first, and it will be easier to deal with the bottom-level problems with them. "

"Okay, leave this matter to me!" Lu Cai nodded naturally when he heard Li Tai's words.

To be honest, these agricultural officials are definitely not mature enough, but since Li Tai needs it, he can use it first.

Just as mathematics is recruited by the water transportation system, agricultural students who have studied in agricultural colleges for two years can only start working in advance.

In Li Tai's view, it is a kind of training for them to participate in the renovation of Zheng Baiqu while going deeper into the common people.

Naturally, most of these agricultural officials are locals from Chang'an, and the area where Zheng Baiqu is located is connected with Chang'an by a river.

After the Weihe River was dredged, even if he wanted to go back to see his family, it would only take three days at most.

Moreover, the official position of the Secretary of Agriculture is the seventh rank outsider. Although the position is not high, it is still at the level of a civil servant with a staff.

"It's official business for now!" Li Tai sighed slightly, and looked at Lu Cai involuntarily.

"Your Majesty, what kind of eyes do you have? If you have anything to say, just say it!" Lu Cai said weakly.

"I promised Chunfeng to build the Zhengbai Canal together, but Chunfeng is far away in Youzhou and can't come back, so I will write a letter of apology to Chunfeng.

At the same time, I hope to invite him to quickly deal with the affairs of Youzhou and jointly build Zheng Baiqu! "

Li Tai said to Lu Cai very sincerely and slightly bewitchingly, Lu Cai was numb from this amiable voice!

"My lord, what do you mean by that!" Lu Cai said weakly,

"Just say what you have to say. Every time you talk to me like this, you're making me take the blame..."

"Eh..." Li Tai's expression froze, he patted Lu Cai's shoulder and said with a smile on his face, "You are my confidant!"

"..." Lu Cai could only say with a wry smile, "Thank you for your kindness in cultivating the king, if it weren't for the king Chuzhi, I'm afraid he would have to take a scientific examination!"

"That's right!" Li Tai patted Lu Cai's shoulder and said, "I just want you to write a letter to Chunfeng yourself.

It is said that Chunfeng should focus on Youzhou University. Although he can't come, he can suggest that his students come quickly.

After all, if his student is here, that means he is here. Do you think I am right?

Because it's hard for me to say this, I can only leave it to you! "

"Your Majesty, you know that Chunfeng and I drink flower wine together!" Lu Cai couldn't help but smile wryly when he heard that he was going to take the blame.

After hearing Lu Cai's words, Li Tai said decisively, "What request do you have?"

"I listened to the song "Guangling Tan" a lot in the Hualou Jiaofang.

I heard that "Guangling Tan" is the purest in the palace, I wonder if your majesty can give me a look at this score! " Lu Cai said decisively.

Li Chunfeng is his best friend who goes to Hualou together, and music is his close friend all the time.

If compared with the pure version of "Guangling Tan", who is Li Chunfeng?do not recognize!
I have absolutely no friend more important than music!
"Okay... next time I go to Chang'an, I will definitely borrow it from Taichang!" Li Tai resolutely promised.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will write to Chunfeng right away to let him know what to do!" Lu Cai assured Li Tai,
"Since I was the one who recommended Li Chunfeng to be in Youzhou, I will be responsible for this matter to the end!"

Obviously, for Lu Cai, selling Li Chunfeng in "Guangling Tan" made him feel no psychological pressure.

After all, Lu Cai also knew that he and Li Chunfeng were good friends, and the so-called good friends were just sold at critical moments!
Seeing Lu Cai's decisive decision, Li Tai couldn't help but feel ashamed at this moment.

But anyway, this matter is over.

Now, of course, before Ma Zhou and the water conservancy heroes arranged by the court come, I will go to the rich and powerful family for a run.

Needless to say, the first place...

"Uncle Changsun, Qingque came to visit you today!"

After Li Tai sent someone to come to Chang'an in an ox cart, he rushed towards Changsun's mansion immediately.

How can this kind of licking Li Shimin be done if Changsun Wuji is not found.

Hearing Li Tai calling at the door, Changsun Wuji couldn't help pressing his head.

Although after hearing the wind, he had a vague feeling that there would be a bad premonition, but he really didn't expect that Qing Que would come to the door after the order was issued!

"Open the door and invite the King of Yue to come in!" Changsun Wuji was also very helpless, but obviously he couldn't escape this time.

After all, the matter of renovating Zheng Baiqu is related to Li Shimin's righteous warehouse, and it is even more related to the Luoyang Palace that Li Shimin is thinking about.

Others can still pretend to be noble and put on a show, but Changsun Wuji can forget it.

"Uncle!" Li Tai knew that he was here to ask for money, and he hadn't got the money yet, so he would naturally give him a good face.

So the voice was lingering from afar, Changsun Wuji could hear it very clearly, he must be bleeding a little this time!
"Okay, okay, isn't this the King of Yue? Come and see Uncle when you are free!" Changsun Wuji had a bright smile on his face.

"Qing Que misses Uncle, so why don't you come and have a look!" Li Tai said sincerely to Changsun Wuji,

"Of course, I got a good job from Aye. When I saw it was profitable, I naturally went to my dearest uncle!"

"Where did the king of Yue say it? Be polite, be polite!" Changsun Wuji said with a smile all over his face,

"Of course, the errands arranged by the sage must be done with all our heart, and there is no such thing as profit."

"Oh~" Li Tai nodded understandingly, and went straight to the point, "Uncle, tell me whether the Changsun family wants the land refurbished by Zheng Baiqu. If they really don't want it, I can't force it to you, right?"

"Qingque, serve as an official and benefit one party. You are also a county magistrate. Don't you know that saints hate land annexation the most!" Changsun Wuji worried, "Do you think we really spent money to give Zheng Baiqu to Zheng Baiqu?" Is it a good thing to develop it!?"

"..." Li Tai couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard this.

Obviously, this guy wants to eat up the refurbished fields of Zheng Baiqu, but he is afraid that he will be liquidated later.

In these years, even corruption is looking forward and backward, and I have never seen a corrupt official who is so hesitant.

Li Taidao: "Zheng Baiqu has been abandoned for many years, and it has not been refurbished yet, and there are not many ordinary people around it.

Even if there is, when the land is refurbished, especially the paddy fields are reclaimed, it will definitely become fat in the eyes of the powerful.

Without a family background, not a relative of the emperor, the land developed here cannot be held by ordinary people.

But after the entire Zhengbaiqu was replaced by the land of the aristocratic family, the Yuewang Palace was in the east, the royal family was in the west, the five surnames and Qiwang were in the north, and the four surnames in Guanzhong were in the south. As for the officials in the middle, they were all officials anyway.

Unless someone has fallen, Qingque is quite curious about how to embezzle each other's land. "

To be honest, is it true that Li Tai can't repair Zheng Baiqu by himself?
In fact, as long as Gaoling is used as a support, Li Tai issues food stamps and prolongs the construction time, Li Tai can completely build Zheng Baiqu, and there is no need to win over those aristocratic families.

But Li Tai needs to do an experiment, that is, what will happen if all these aristocratic families are brought together.

It is unrealistic for me to announce that all the so-called land will be nationalized in ancient times.

Even if I become the emperor, if I announce this kind of thing on the first day, uprisings will occur in various places on the second day.

Moreover, it may not necessarily be these aristocratic nobles and common landlords who oppose him, the first one to jump out must be the son of a good family who he originally thought was the basic set.

Because for the former two, they must take advantage of this opportunity to enclose land. For them, what belongs to the country is their own, and it doesn't matter whether the Tang Dynasty is dead or not.

On the contrary, those good families who are the backbone of the society will basically go bankrupt, resulting in the inability to survive and struggle.

In fact, the society is the same now, even if the land is owned by the state, people do not find a substitute for the land—houses.

Moreover, according to the development trend of society, these houses will only become more and more concentrated among a few people, becoming landlords in the new era, exploiting and enjoying the rewards of laborers.

Basically, those who go to big cities to work are mainly to support the local landlords.

So Li Tai just wanted to take a look, but when there are no so-called ordinary good families in a place, and there are only powerful forces such as aristocratic families and royal families, what will happen to the land mergers of aristocratic families in this area.

To put it bluntly, ordinary officials may want to donate money to please Li Shimin, and the aristocratic family wants to use this opportunity to plant more land for their own family. Naturally, the royal family and nobles will not slap Li Shimin in the face, and Li Shimin only hopes that after filling the righteous warehouse, his own You can happily build Luoyang Palace.

As for Li Tai, he just wanted to use the Zhengbaiqu area to conduct a social experiment.

One is to test whether the sergeant can complete his penetration of the bottom.

The second is to experiment with what would happen if ordinary good families were lost as the lower class and only rich and nobles were left to dispute in Zheng Baiqu.

As for the third, if I can really get a rich initial investment, can I try the industrialization of all materials.

After all, with so much money, it would be a waste not to spend it!

"So, uncle, don't play tricks on me, how much does your eldest grandson's family pay!" Li Tai couldn't help but said.

"Qing Que, you're so impolite, I'm really worried!" Changsun Wuji heard Li Tai's words, he was very skeptical, "You won't take my money and then deny it!"

Li Tai was slightly taken aback when he heard this, and naturally smiled apologetically, after all, the initial funds have not yet been obtained!
However, Li Tai reacted quickly, looked at Changsun Wuji, and said suspiciously:

"Uncle, don't you want someone to come in?
Then set up a fund supervision committee to supervise the flow of funds! "

"Oh, is this okay?" Changsun Wuji was a little surprised when he heard Li Tai's words, Li Tai's boldness, so easy to talk about!

Li Tai waved his hand and said, "I'm not going to embezzle. I'll send someone over to supervise. I'm also a helper. What's wrong!"

Li Tai looked at Changsun Wuji with incomparable disdain, hehe, corruption?

Lao Tzu is the supervisor of this project. He is not only a referee, but also an athlete, and a policy maker. He needs to be corrupted!
What I want is to use this opportunity to build a supporting facility from upstream to downstream around the Zhengbaiqu project.

It is guaranteed that every sum of money will be calculated with you according to the market price. In the end, you will find that the Yue Wangfu almost subsidized all the underwear for the country and the people, and then filled this black hole-like fund hole.

So although Zheng Baiqu is still blank, it was decided from the beginning that the country will take one-third, and the Yue Palace will take one-third. up!

How is it, are you moved by the aristocratic family!
Sure enough, what kind of conspiracy is he playing? Is it because Haohao Tangtang is unhappy to steal money, or is it unhappy to do things frankly.

Li Tai felt that he was full of energy to work again, what a beautiful day!
