Cultivation of chastity

Chapter 39 Dou Jing's Request

The officials of Sinong Temple naturally brought Li Tai in, brought tea and snacks, and took care of Li Tai in the side hall.

At the same time, after knowing Li Tai's intentions, he immediately went to find Dou Jing.

After all, Li Tai and Dou Jing had a good relationship since the last locust extermination, so since Li Tai came to Sinong Temple, he had to greet Dou Jing out of reason.

In addition, Zhu Bo was also called over. After all, Li Tailai returned the wheat, and the amount of wheat must be approved for storage.

And Dou Jing had something else to do, so she asked Li Tai to wait, but Bo, the farmer's boss, came first.

This Si Nongzhu Bo looks quite young, and he doesn't have the kind of arrogance that my generation is from Penghao. He probably didn't take the imperial examination route, but the Yinbu route. It's the normal way.

Those who took the imperial examination route, even if they passed the Jinshi examination, most of them would be given a ninth-rank official position.

Most of them are left to do odd jobs in places like Chongwen Museum. When there is a shortage of people in the court, this person will have a chance to make up for it.

And this kind of people who take the shady and supplementary route usually gild Qian Niubei's body, and when he is released, he is an official of the seventh or eighth rank.

"I've seen the King of Yue, Bo Yan Xuansui, the boss of the farmer, come to verify the storage!" Yan Xuansui said to Li Tai neither humble nor overbearing.

"Everything is in the yard, please go and check it!" Li Tai made a please gesture when he heard Yan Xuansui's words.

Yan Xuansui was not polite, and immediately went to count the wheat sent back by Li Tai.

However, it was still wheat at the beginning, but later, it turned out to be quite exquisite top-grade silk and satin, and I couldn't help being stunned.

Yan Xuanxuan was slightly puzzled, but he still counted all these things, calculated the price, and said:
"King Yue, the wheat you returned was only 330 seven stones and two taels, and the wheat and other grains you borrowed from the Si Nong Mansion totaled more than four thousand stones, which is probably less than one-tenth of it!"

"I know!" Li Tai nodded and said, "This year the land in Gaoling has just been plowed and the wheat harvest is naturally short, so try to pay back this part first, and return the rest in the form of silk and satin from Kaiyuan Tongbao and Aye.

Don't worry, I have one layer more than the market price, and I will definitely not let Sinong Temple suffer! "

"This..." Yan Xuansui frowned when he heard Li Tai's words. Although the deal was definitely not a loss for Si Nongsi, he really couldn't decide on this matter.

Yan Xuanxuan said: "Sinong Temple did not rush for this fee, King Yue might as well let it go, and it will not be too late to wait for the next year's bumper harvest!"

Hearing this, Li Tai shook his head and said:
"Since it was agreed at the beginning, if there is a harvest this year, then we should return it to Si Nong Temple, and we must pay it back no matter what.

After all, if I, as a child of the Li family, do not abide by the regulations formulated by the imperial court, how can I expect other people to abide by them! "

Hearing Li Tai's words, Yan Xuansui immediately stood up in awe, saying,

"King Yue, please wait a moment. I will report this matter to Dou Sinong immediately and wait for Dou Sinong's ruling."

After Yan Xuansui finished speaking, he immediately tidied up, and asked Li Tai to continue to have tea and snacks here, and left by himself.

But not long after, I saw Dou Jing bringing Yan Xuanxuan over. After the two parties greeted each other, they sat down.

Li Tai looked at Dou Jing and said with some doubts: "Does Sinong Dou need to come in person for this matter?"

She borrowed the food from Sinong Temple, and chose to repay the money instead of the food in exchange. Dou Jing can just nod her head directly for such a thing, and there is no need to talk to herself personally.

What needs him to nod more is to prove that this is not a private transaction, so let him, the chief of Sinong Temple, know.

Theoretically speaking, as long as this matter is kept at the bottom, there will be no problem.

After all, the imperial court allowed Kaiyuan Tongbao and silk satin to pay taxes, but generally those who choose this will suffer a little bit.

"This trivial matter is of course no problem!" Dou Jing looked at Li Tai and said, "The main reason is to thank King Yue for the Quyuanli that you sent. With this Quyuanli, this year's spring plowing in the Guanzhong area has increased by at least a thousand hectares."

"It's just a trivial matter!" Li Tai shook his head and said, "As long as you don't dislike Qu Yuanli's immaturity!"

Dou Jing nodded and said, "Besides that, I have another thing I want to ask the King of Yue."

"Please Dou Sinong speak up!" Li Tai said to Dou Jing with a straight expression when he heard Dou Jing's words.

"In my life, since the rise of the army in Jinyang, I have been carrying out farming affairs, and I have accumulated a little experience in farming.

I edited it, but it is a pity that it is not a book, and I am reluctant to add or subtract, which is how it was originally.

But since I saw that the king of Yue really focused on agriculture, and even initiated the Tinder Project to continue the context, I also want to keep this agricultural book!

If my children of the Dou family have the ambition to study agriculture in the future, you can go to the library to have a look! "

Dou Jing took out a book, handed it to Li Tai with both hands, and said earnestly.

"I know what Si Nong means, please rest assured, I will accept this book!"

Li Tai took the book from Dou Jing with both hands, and said,

"After I take it back and make a copy by hand, I will send someone to return the manuscript to Si Nong immediately!"

Li Tai carefully took the book from Dou Jing, as if thinking of something, he continued to Dou Jing:
"Sinon Dou, if you come up with new ideas in the future, you can also notify me to make changes.

In addition, if the increase or decrease is satisfactory, I will sell this book as an agricultural book in Gaoling, so that it will be popular in the world.

Dou Si Nong may become Jia Sixie of my Tang Dynasty! "

"Don't deserve it, don't deserve it!" Dou Jing smiled when she heard Li Tai's praise.

For Dou Jing, who has been honest all her life, if she can really leave a farm book comparable to "Qi Min Yao Shu", then she will really win the fame both in life and after life.

For a while, Dou Jing felt as if she had found other meaningful things besides helping the court.

Thinking of this, Dou Jing looked at Li Tai more pleasingly, and kept Li Tai for lunch before letting Li Tai leave.

Li Tai successfully repaid the food, but he was also relieved.

Although from a financial point of view, even borrowed things are considered one's own assets, so Lao Lai can live a nourishing life.

But in this world, it is impossible to think about everything from an economic point of view, especially since I am eyeing Li Shimin's position, how much credit I can make is secondary, and the most important thing is not to have obvious flaws.

After all, Li Chengqian is fine. Li Zhi is a black-bellied guy, but he is very good at catching loopholes.

When Li Tai returned to Gaoling, he handed the book to the library and asked Kong Zhiyue to make a copy of the book.

And Kong Zhiyue looked at this book that jumped in the queue, so he could only take it silently, copying this book first.

After all, apart from this book, there are nearly [-] volumes of books waiting for him to transcribe.

Of course, in addition to him, Yu Shinan's son Yu Chang and the library director Yan Qinli also came to copy from time to time.

In Li Tai's words, the original books must of course be well preserved, and the books that are open in the library must be manuscripts.

Otherwise, what should I do if the original version is damaged when someone reads it.

As for this matter, because Yan Qinli still had to take the liberal arts, the pressure fell on Kong Zhiyue and Yu Chang.

Of course, the liberal arts students are free, and most of them are very happy to come and sort out these books.

After all, this kind of thing is quite eye-opening for students.

There are more than 2 books collected by the aristocratic family. Such a library is already much larger than the library collection of any aristocratic family.

At most, the knowledge here is not the core knowledge of each family, but for the people at the bottom, this knowledge is already unattainable for them.

And Li Tai's idea was that these books were sorted out in the school once, and let them evaluate which ones were relatively low-level and suitable for widespread dissemination.

Otherwise, for the [-] volumes of books, I will not be able to get a copy of all the engravings, and then I will take them all out and buy them.

As for movable type printing, it can only be said that movable type printing is not as easy to use as engraving in this era. The important reason is that there is no need to carry the style of the article that needs to be changed from time to time.

Movable type printing is more prepared for 26-letter phonetic characters like English. For China, before newspapers are invented, it makes sense that woodblock printing can be used until the Qing Dynasty. yes!

Li Tai didn't disturb them and continued to copy and organize the volumes of books, and from Dou Jing, Li Tai vaguely felt that the Tinder plan, which was originally used to fool people, might have a follow-up in the future.

After all, writing a book and saying that this kind of thing seems to have a great lethality in ancient times, even Dou Jing, who has always been honest and honest, seems to have a second life when she hears this statement, at least her mental strength does not look like an old man at all.

Li Tai even suspected that if Dou Jing didn't write it well, maybe his son would continue to write it.

In ancient times, it was very normal for fathers to die and sons to succeed, such as the Yu Gong in mythology, the Sima family who wrote history books, and so on.

But for Li Tai, the real problem is that after he writes and publishes, will those veteran officials in the court feel that they are also full of knowledge, and then write a book of experience and stuff it here.

Thinking of this, Li Tai glanced at Kong Zhiyue and Yu Chang who were continuing to write in silence with a little bit of silence.

Come on, both of you, I have completed the sorting and summarization of [-] volumes of books, I'm afraid it's just the beginning of this library project!
Li Tai took a deep breath and left the library calmly, because Li Tai believed that his spirit was with them.

In fact, the school is quite busy at the moment.

After all, Ma Zhou transferred the section chiefs of the three departments to take care of Gaoling County, so Lu Cai, as the section chief of music department, took care of the entire school, and he didn't even touch the ground when Li Tai came.

Li Tai watched the scene in front of him and didn't bother him, just let him continue to work.

Li Tai also noticed that, just as Ma Zhou said, Lu Caizhen is the kind of special talent who can show his abilities more when he is chaotic.

Orders that seem to have nothing to do with each other, according to Lu Cai's arrangement, soon appeared a chaotic and orderly rhythm, and then followed the fine-tuning of each job, and the order of each thing, Lu Cai Talent is held quite well.

The agricultural college quickly returned to the way it was when Ma Zhou and the six section chiefs were there. This feeling is very strange.

Seeing that Lu Cai could really stand up to Li Tai, he didn't interfere too much. After all, Li Tai had already finished planning for the academy, at least until the academy really proved himself, Li Tai didn't want to make too many adjustments to it.

As for Lu Cai as a strategic planner, Li Tai doesn't know, but as an executor, he is definitely excellent!
In this way, Li Tai can also paddle with peace of mind, take his time, and he doesn't need to worry in three years.

After Li Tai returned to Gaoling County, he basically didn't take care of things too much, because the school had Lu Cai in charge, and in Gaoling County, Ma Zhou, as the county magistrate, had already acted by means of wind and thunder.

Li Chunfeng was dragged to build roads, because Li Chunfeng had studied yin and yang geomantic omen, and knew how to patrol mountains and veins. The most important thing was that he was good at mathematics, so Li Tai planned to build a team of corvee workers who knew mathematics.

As for Du Chuke, his task is to conduct a comprehensive test on the newly invented bobbin car, and then start to popularize the bobbin car to all the fields in Gaoling County.

As for asking Du Chuke to study amphibious boats that can sail on land, Du Chuke could only smile helplessly.

He said that he would first have people build a shipyard to manufacture normal ships, and then find a way to study the special varieties of these two waterways.

Therefore, Du Chuke was asked to choose a deep and wide area to build a dock, forming the third support point of Gaoling County.

After dismissing these two guys, Ma Zhou started to manage Gaoling County by himself.

It has to be said that for Ma Zhou it is not difficult to manage a county, especially the main personnel structure of this county was recruited by Ma Zhou to appease him, which made it easier for Ma Zhou to handle things.

Neighborhood disputes and disputes between people rarely require any government servants, and Ma Zhou can basically solve them by coming forward.

Even if there were people from other places who wanted to show their prestige in Gaoling County, Ma Zhou said hello, and there were people of his own everywhere.

It just annoyed Ma Zhou that he was working hard while the county magistrate was drooling in the lobby and sleeping soundly.

Hmm, Li Tai was in charge of planning, and Ma Zhou was in charge of implementation. After Li Tai completed the planning, except for Yan Qinli who came to let Li Tai copy homework every day, Li Tai's only job in the lobby was to sleep on time and get off work on time!

"Uh...is the sun setting?" Li Tai rubbed his eyes, feeling that a good day was over.

"Are you awake?" Seeing Li Tai waking up, Ma Zhou handed Li Tai a document and said, "King Ren Cheng sent someone to send a list, saying that the retired military household that the king asked him to find has been found for you. Come, someone will be sent over tomorrow."

"Already here?!" Li Tai was overjoyed when he heard Ma Zhou's words, and said, "Show me the list!"

"What arrangements do you have for these military household lords?" Ma Zhou asked with some doubts when he heard Li Tai's words.

"They will become our Gaoling County's errands in the future!" Li Tai pondered, "A large part of them will be responsible for finding the streets, after all there is no force to deter them, and there are too many petty thefts in big shopping malls! "
