Cultivation of chastity

Chapter 444 Son, Times Have Changed

However, as the matter of this Vientiane Shrine passed, Fang Xuanling looked at Li Tai with a serious expression and said,
"The Vientiane Shrine built by the king of Wei is indeed amazing. I was so busy talking about the Vientiane Shrine that I almost forgot the business."

Hearing Fang Xuanling's words, Li Tai couldn't help but become serious, and said, "Please speak to Fang Xuanling."

"That's how it is. Now that the Vientiane Shrine has been repaired, will the road from Chang'an to Luoyang that King Wei proposed start construction next year?" Fang Xuanling asked Li Tai seriously.

Then, Fang Xuanling paused, and further explained,
"If so, then at the end of this year, King Wei will present the entire project plan.

Let me understand how much money and food is needed to build this road, but I can also prepare for it.

At the same time, the imperial court will also dispatch manpower from the six ministries to set up a working group for this project for you. "

When Li Tai heard Fang Xuanling's words, his expression straightened, and he said, "What Fang Xiang said is very true.

However, Fan Yuefeng, who was in charge of surveying the road, has not come back yet, and cannot reply to you, Fang Xiang, without specific information.

But he will return to Chang'an for the Spring Festival, and he will definitely give you a definite answer before the Lantern Festival at the latest. "

"Artisan skills, especially craftsmen who can invent techniques that improve agricultural production and energy efficiency, will be very important.

"It's a bitterly cold place over there, it's a fact that can't be changed, so I need to find a way to prolong the time of farming there.

And this is the cruel fate of individuals in human society. When the tide of the times hits, I simply cannot tolerate resistance.

After all, it is difficult for human beings to struggle hard, but if they escape, they will eventually find a way.

"Then why did King Wei make these glasses?!" Cen Wenwen's expression changed.

After all, China has been in turmoil for many years since the Han Dynasty, and now it has finally settled down. Now that any normal person wants to return to the enfeoffment system, there is no way at all!

At most, the design has increased a bit of modularity, making it easier to assemble and disassemble.

This is also the reason why Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others on the top floor can watch Li Tai gain power little by little with peace of mind, and even compete with Li Chengqian.

"How can machinery be able to replace livestock? The machinery won't even move if no one is operating it!"

Li Tai couldn't help recovering from Fang Xuanling's words, nodded and said, "As Fang Xiang said, my research on steam engines has hit a bottleneck, and I don't know when or how to make a breakthrough.

Fang Xuanling replied: "As the energy of heaven and earth becomes more active, cattle and horses and other livestock will become stronger, that is, under normal circumstances, they can only plow about two to three acres.

Every technological iteration is at the expense of one generation, or even several generations, to realize technological changes in human society and make future people's lives better. Even Li Tai has no way to change this.

And this matter can be proved by mathematics, this is the biggest shadow and secret hovering over the top political arena of the Tang Dynasty.

So I want to carry out an exam for craftsmen, and then bring the world's top craftsmen over to study steam engines! "

"Eh? Ah!" Li Tai felt a bit unresponsive when he heard Fang Xuanling's words!
At this time, Fang Xuanling came over to pat Li Tai and said with a serious expression, "Your heart is good, King Wei. Instead of studying steam engines, it is more cost-effective to study how to quickly implement the seed plan to produce horses! "

"King Wei, you have too much prejudice against Confucianism!" Fang Xuanling smiled, but her face became serious and she looked at Li Taidao,
"However, I really didn't expect you, King Wei, to attach so much importance to craftsmen. I wonder if you can tell me the reason!"

To be honest, sometimes a large part of the reason why the Tang court allowed Li Tai to make his own decisions about internal affairs was that Li Tai raised the population limit.

"Wei Wang wants to improve the status of artisans!" Fang Xuanling frowned when he heard Li Tai's words.

Glass is fine in Chang'an, but it's definitely not acceptable in the area north of Youzhou.

"Tai understands!" Li Tai couldn't help but nodded when he heard Fang Xuanling's words, and then said with a serious expression,
"Speaking of which, if the road is to be built, Tai would like to ask the house minister about something. I don't know if it is allowed!"

Fang Xuanling immediately pulled Li Tai back, he couldn't just listen to Li Tai's words that he didn't understand!

"Qingque, are you already thinking about governing Goguryeo?" Li Shimin asked in a deep voice when he heard Li Tai's words.

"Just to produce a transparent container that can replace ice!

"For the long-term stability of the Tang Dynasty, and for the Tang Dynasty to accommodate as many people as possible in the future!" Li Tai said solemnly.

But now it seems that King Wei has a new understanding. To be honest, if possible, Fang Xuanling still does not want to divide the enfeoffment.

"Building a large-scale greenhouse..." Listening to Li Tai's words, Cen Wenwen's head was a little buzzing.

When Li Tai said this, he couldn't help but think of the distant future. After all, no matter how much machinery or artificial intelligence develops, as long as the underlying logic remains unchanged, it is just a human tool.

"King Wei has a new understanding of breaking the population limit?" Fang Xuanling couldn't help asking when he heard Li Tai's words.

"Those glasses are invested with [-] guan every year?!" Hearing Li Tai's words, everyone present couldn't help jumping!
"That's a by-product of research, it's just adding different materials to change the color!" Li Tai shook his head and said,

Li Tai explained: "The Ministry of Industry is generally responsible for managing craftsmen, and I want to rate the craftsman system.

The real problem is that the cold in Youzhou or even north of Youzhou is different from the cold in Chang'an.

Make preparations one day earlier, and implement it as soon as possible next year! "

"Use machines to replace livestock, King Wei must stop talking nonsense!" Cen Wenwen shook his head when he heard Li Tai's words,

Li Tai said this with a bit of absolute confidence, and the few people present looked at Li Tai, but they could feel Li Tai's enthusiasm.

Because if Li Tai really becomes a prince, or even becomes the future emperor, then the enfeoffment policy that has been insisted on since Li Shimin may really be implemented in Li Tai's hands, and it will become a policy that will be implemented by Datang for at least a hundred years in the future. basic national policy.

For a moment, Li Tai didn't react.

"That piece of land, after all, was lost during the Han Dynasty. Now that it has been recovered, it will naturally be well developed so that it can be fully managed into the territory of our Tang Dynasty."

At most, more traditional occupations will be eliminated, just like the appearance of tractors eliminated livestock. After all, people still use them, but they have higher requirements for people.

But generally they only gained social advancement through their skills during wartime.

So I still need to further study cold-resistant glass. When this kind of cold-resistant glass is successfully researched, even if it is a place of bitter cold, our Tang Dynasty can also occupy it! "

Have you read the original experiment to prove that there is something in the air, but the deviation is relatively large because of the ice, but it is more accurate if it is replaced with transparent glass! "

Li Tai looked at Li Shimin, and replied to Li Shimin very calmly.

It's just that if human beings are really reduced to digital codes, then humans are no longer humans, and human civilization without humans is naturally meaningless.

Looking at the raging fire burning in Li Tai's eyes, Fang Xuanling said to Li Tai calmly at this moment:

"Huh?" Li Tai was a little dazed when he heard Fang Xuanling's words, and said, "So what?"

But according to the degree of activity of this heaven and earth essence, you will gradually be able to plow four or five acres in the future, and may even reach more than ten acres in the future. But can the steam engine you researched be able to plow one acre now? "

Hearing this, the faces of the people present couldn't help but change, except for Cen Wenwen who was somewhat confused, but no matter whether it was Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, or even Li Shimin himself, their expressions were somewhat serious at the moment.

But the result is that this family is not only a fantasy world, but also a fantasy world with revived spiritual energy.

Because of the emergence of glass, we have the basic materials for building large-scale greenhouses, so that we can grow crops out of season.

"What I really want to research is transparent and colorless glass. Unfortunately, it is not completely colorless and transparent until now. I can only say that the frosted glass was made by me."

"Yes!" Li Tai nodded,

It's just that this enfeoffment system must not be in a place where the Tang Dynasty can send troops in three months, otherwise it will be a big deal in the future.

Just because Li Tai raised this question at the beginning, the more Fang Xuanling and others thought about the enfeoffment system Li Shimin insisted on when they went back, they had to admit that the enfeoffment system did delay the outbreak of the problem to a certain extent, and this gradually became the top level of enfeoffment. consensus.

At the same time, different craftsmen can also get different rewards, and those who are exceptionally superior can be awarded knighthoods! "

"Yes!" Li Tai nodded, "In my opinion, craftsmen are the most important, even more important than generals.

"That's good!" Fang Xuanling nodded when she heard Li Tai's words:

Normally, it shouldn't be me, a traverser, who relies on production inventions to increase productivity, telling the bumpkins,

Li Tai came back to his senses, and continued to say to Cen Wenwen, "It's like the Vientiane Shrine. In order to study glass, I keep investing no less than [-] pieces of research every year, and I finally researched what I wanted! "

Once the society becomes stable, they will be abandoned by the court, and even Confucianism will reprimand them as strange obscene skills. "

Shouldn't the more you consume the less you consume things like the essence of heaven and earth!
Why do you use it more and more now, why do you encounter this kind of thing yourself!

Then I naturally thought of the greenhouse that Chen had researched in the north, but the cost of building a greenhouse was too high, and ordinary people could not afford it.

"The old minister saw that King Wei had completed the construction of the Vientiane Shrine, and wanted to free up the corvee in King Wei's hands, so he came to ask.

At that time, people only need to live in a single folder, and in this two-bit folder, they may be able to live the life of a god, but they may need to pay to open certain permissions.

Li Tai nodded when he heard Cen Wenwen's words, "What Cen Zhongshu said is true, machines are controlled by humans after all!"

Li Tai glanced at Cen Wenwen, he wondered if Cen Wenwen knew about the original matter, but Li Tai continued,
"Now we have some clues, but the most worthwhile thing is that after this thing is researched, after that, it is possible to win Goguryeo and even the northern part of Youzhou.

As for the conditions for rating, when constructing some large-scale projects, through practice to see the working method proposed by a craftsman, or the equipment researched, without affecting the quality of the project, the progress of the project will be accelerated, and then different craftsmen will be awarded grades.

Then I thought about the glass I was studying. To be honest, normal glass greenhouses are no longer a problem.

However, the power structure of the steam engine itself has not been effectively increased, so now that you have mastered the Ministry of Industry, you should arrange some top craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry to study the steam engine, with the goal of achieving an improved version by Watt.

"My lord! The world has changed!"

"Please speak clearly, King Wei!" Fang Xuanling asked curiously after hearing Li Tai's words.

And when crops can be planted there in winter, then we Huaxia will never let them lose the land that can be planted! "

To be honest, the steam engine made a few years ago can be used to crack rice cakes by itself, but after so long development, this steam engine can only be used to crack rice cakes.

The simplest example is that the tools in the hands of the people have changed from the most primitive spears used for fishing and hunting to the plows used for farming, and then the plows are used for livestock production, and the next step is to be able to Machinery cannot be used as a substitute for livestock to plow the land! "

This will help our Datang to break the population limit that Datang can carry bit by bit.

"King Wei, do you know that the essence of heaven and earth is constantly rising?"

"Ahem, King Wei, the purpose of starting the artisan assessment today should not only be to enhance the title of artisan!"

That is to convert human meanings into codes, and with the principle of joining if you can't beat it, turn yourself into an artificial intelligence.

Cen Wenwen looked at Li Tai and didn't know what to say for a while, he had never seen such a king of Wei.

Of course, humans don’t need to worry too much. If artificial intelligence really appears, then the technology at that time can generally achieve human dimensionality reduction processing.

Li Shimin looked at Li Tai's somewhat disappointed look, and quickly comforted Qingque:
"Qingque, you have a good heart to study this thing, but there is no need to invest so many resources in it in the future.

As for the craftsmen you need, there are specific numbers and standards for the entrustment of Marquises by the country. I will give you a few, which can be regarded as assisting you in establishing a craftsman system.

It's just Qingque, don't just focus on these craftsmen, your vision should be broader, you should look up at Datang, and you should also look at the world, after all, this era has changed! "

Li Tai was listening to Li Shimin's education at this moment, but felt tears streaming down his face for a while. He always felt that the script should not be like this, and he was really ashamed at the moment.
