Cultivation of chastity

Chapter 73 Li Chengqian's Edge
Li Tai's suggestion is naturally extremely sincere, especially using Weihe shipping charges as a pilot, rather than spreading it all over the country at once.

For the ministers, it is not impossible to come and try, anyway, Li Tai is not in a hurry.

To be honest, there is no need to rush to implement many policies, step by step, step by step, will naturally change the society.

This time, I want to obtain tax revenue by building a wharf and setting up a container model. Regardless of what Li Tai said is easy, but even if it is spread in the Weihe area as a pilot work, it is enough to keep Li Tai busy for the next two years. .

Moreover, in this process, we need to solve the size of the container, the development of lifting machinery, the arrangement of human resources, and even the design of freight vehicles.

Even though Li Tai knows that as long as this road is cleared, it will gradually form a broad road, but now this broad road is full of thorns, making people feel that every small step forward is extremely difficult.

But no matter how difficult it is, this is the path that I must go out.

Because only when this taxation system is established, the imperial court will pay attention to the Grand Canal and improve the water transportation system of the Grand Canal.

The water transportation system brings not only the water transportation itself, but also paves the way for the inland dispatch of marine resources in the future.

Again, in the feudal era, the profits brought by ocean trade belonged to the superiors and had nothing to do with the people at the bottom.

Therefore, no matter how prosperous the ocean trade is, it will not cause any underlying changes in the entire Chinese society.

But when the marine fishing industry uses a relatively complete water transportation system to transport pickled salted fish, dried fish, and even fresh marine fish to most parts of China at a cheap price, the inland people will pay attention to it. ocean.

Up and down 5000 years, only eating forever.Only by establishing a connection with the people to eat, the ocean will be valued by Huaxia.

And this cannot be solved by land transportation. Water transportation is the best way to reduce transportation costs in this era.

Therefore, if Li Tai wanted to further explore the sea after he took over the country, it was inevitable to improve the water transportation system of the Grand Canal.

And if you want to improve the water transportation system of the Grand Canal, now you have to test your own ideas in the Weishui River.

Wanting to let the people of China look at the sea from the land-oriented farming society, Li Tai knows that this is definitely a century-old plan, but he can't say this plan at all, and he doesn't have anyone in this world who can speak with him .

Because the eyes of the Chinese people have never seen the ocean until the end of their lives.

Speaking out by myself is not only a joke, but to some extent, it may cause resistance from certain landlord classes.

So just slowly advance your plan step by step.

In ten or twenty years, with the development of the water transportation system and marine fishing, there is no need to actively promote it. The marine model will eventually put forward its own political demands and promote its further development. After all, the development of any model is the first instinct.

"Let's do a pilot project in Weishui first!" Li Shimin stroked his beard, and liked Li Tai's very stable personality very much, and said to Li Tai, "However the money comes, we can't let the Yue Palace come out!"

To be honest, Li Shimin didn't understand why Li Tai didn't seem to be short of money after being released for a few years.

It was so poor that even the first pot of gold was borrowed from duck farms to borrow chickens to lay eggs. How come after the duck farms came into Li Tai's hands, it has not been a few years, it seems that the word lack of money is even worse Li Tai seemed to be insulated.

Especially when resettling the original [-] disaster victims, he was so eager to throw money almost every day. I really don't know where Li Tai got so much money from.

Li Shimin is still very envious of this kind of ability to spend money in the crotch, because after the Turks were settled, he wanted to repair the garden.

Li Tai said: "This matter requires a detailed investigation of the Wei River from Tianshui in Qinzhou upstream to Tongguan where it flows into the Yellow River.

After an accurate assessment of the currents, a decision can be made on how many segmented ports need to be built.

Make a plan and have an accurate judgment on how much it will cost. It is still too early to say how much it will cost!
If Aye trusts him, King Bin can be in charge of this matter. Before June this year, he should be able to issue a detailed plan. "

"I am willing to do the work of dogs and horses and do a good job in the preliminary work of Weishui Water Transport!" Ma Zhou said decisively.

"Okay..." Li Shimin glanced at Ma Zhou, then looked at Dai Zhou again, and said:
"Ma Zhou will be the transfer envoy of the Weishui River, and the Ministry of Water will send an official who understands the Weishui River as a deputy to assist in completing the survey of the Weishui River within half a year before deciding on this matter."

After Li Shimin announced the final result, Li Tai and Ma Zhou could not help but smile at each other.

The incidents caused by the writing of "Water Transport Theory" are more or less over.

The only thing that makes Li Tai feel a little troublesome is that Du Chuke may have to take more care of his future work.

After all, it shouldn't be difficult for someone like him who can at least be a minister to complete the Gaoling work.

As for myself, I'm only ten years old, and I can do some planning. If I really want Li Tai to work, I'm afraid it's not about shouting about child labor abuse.

In short, it is impossible to work, and I have to rely on ordering others to advance Gaoling.

"If there is nothing wrong, then go down!" Li Shimin looked at Li Tai and said, "Because your "Water Transport Theory" has caused a lot of troubles, you, I really don't know when it will stop!"

"As long as it is beneficial to the country and the country of the Tang Dynasty, it is natural that even if there are tens of millions of people, I will go!"

Li Tai had a glorious face, but whoever ate less salt than Li Tai, naturally wouldn't be fooled by him.

However, they also have to admit that although Li Tai can make troubles, he does practical things. The ministers of the Zhenguan Dynasty all came out of the chaos of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Make the cake of Datang bigger.

It's not the social atmosphere after Zhenguan. At that time, it was no longer about making the country bigger and stronger, but internal interests fighting for power.

Although relying on the inertia of social development to make the country still strong, strictly speaking, the atmosphere of seeking truth from facts and doing practical things has disappeared too much compared with Zhenguan Dynasty.

Li Tai didn't leave after saying this, but said, "Aye, I heard that you are considering the internal migration of Turkic tribes?"

"Are you worried about the Turkic captives you want? These are Turkic people, and they won't let you torment!"

Li Shimin heard Li Tai's words, as if thinking of something, he said,
"The Turkic captives you want will be dispatched to you by the pharmacist class teacher!"

"What is Aye talking about? It's as if my eyes are all on Turkic manpower!" Li Tai said.

"Don't you think so?" Li Shimin looked at Li Taidao,
"Although I don't know why you have always felt that there is not enough manpower, do you mean that you don't want those Turkic captives?

If not, then I will hand it over to the dentist! "

"Don't, don't, it's still necessary!" Li Tai heard Li Shimin's words, and said hastily, "But Aye, I really didn't ask this question for the Turkic captives, I just want to know what Aye has to these people Such an arrangement."

"What? You want to intervene in this matter!" Hearing Li Tai's words, Li Shimin frowned.

"It's not that I want to intervene, but that I need to make a living for the students of my agricultural school!"

Li Tai said with a serious expression, "It's like Confucius educated Confucian students and let them become officials.

Then, as the head of the agricultural school, since I set up this school, I will naturally be responsible for the students.

Instead of throwing them in the society after they have learned it, let them go up and down, feeling that learning is useless! "

"Most of King Yue's students are from good families. Their families have a few acres of land. How can they be said to be useless if they have learned agricultural knowledge?" Dou Lukuan, Minister of Rites, stood up and said to Li Tai, "Your King Yue belittles yourself. gone."

"Shangshu Dou Lu said it well!" Li Tai said calmly after hearing Dou Lukuan's words:

"But as I said, Confucianism is not the only one in the world who knows how to educate. I think my agricultural students also know how to educate people of other races."

"You want the students from the agricultural school to educate foreigners?!" Li Shimin suddenly understood when he heard Li Tai's words.

"Yes!" Li Tai clasped his fists and said firmly to Li Shimin,
"The disciples of my agricultural school don't care about anything, they only know how to find a way to solve the basic necessities of life.

The foreign race wants to integrate into China, and the agricultural students are willing to be the guide, let them teach the foreign people the etiquette of farming, literacy and road construction.

When they know how to farm, know Chinese characters, cultivate the road, and understand etiquette, then they will be my Chinese people! "

Hearing Li Tai's words, Wei Zheng hurriedly came out and said, "The King of Yue's suggestion is the right way, cooperate with this to integrate the Turkic tribes into China, and there will be no distinction between Turkic and Han people from now on. This is the right way to avoid the chaos of China. what."

"Miao Ye!" Wen Yanbo didn't expect that Li Tai still had such a big pit waiting for him, and he wondered in his heart that Li Tai made the agricultural students waiting for this day.

Could it be that he has seen from a high perspective that Datang will definitely defeat the Eastern Turks, and is ready to devour the Eastern Turks?

But no matter how you say it, now that the entire court knows that he is arguing with Wei Zheng about this matter, if Li Tai suddenly intervenes and loses his majesty, wouldn't it be a bad thing.

So Wen Yanbo stood up and said: "The chief of the foreign race is unruly and unruly. If he thinks that we will weaken his power and deprive him of his soldiers, there will be troubles again, and the current good situation may disappear completely."

Li Shimin frowned slightly when he heard this. Compared with Wen Yanbo's reason, at least with the cooperation of Li Tai Agricultural University, Wei Zheng's plan was more executable, which made Li Shimin's heart slightly tilted.

At this time, Li Chengqian, who had never spoken before, suddenly handed over a document and asked the servant to deliver it to Li Shimin's desk.

He said in a childlike but surprised tone, "Aye, these Turkic people call you Tian Khan, what does that mean?"

Hearing this, the expressions of the civil and military ministers present changed slightly, and they looked at Li Chengqian with a little surprise.

Even Li Tai couldn't help but look at Li Chengqian a few more times.

I have to say, this guy's handsome and strange evaluation is justified after all.

If he maintains this cleverness all the time, even if he wants to seize the heir, the only way is to rebel!
Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li Shimin couldn't help picking up the memorial that Li Chengqian sent up. It was the memorial that the grassland tribe expected Li Shimin to be able to call himself Tian Khan and canonize their status.

The one who convinced the prairie in this way is only you if you think about it.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin said to Li Chengqian:

"The khan, the ancient Shanyu, called me Tian Khan. It should be taken from the fact that I am the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the Khan of Mobei."

"The sage is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the Khan of Mobei. Naturally, he has a broad mind and embraces everything. How can he ignore the Turkic people!" Wen Yanbo said immediately when he saw the opportunity.

"Let the Turkic tribes keep their customs and settle in Shuozhou for the time being!" Li Shimin thought for a while and couldn't help saying.

"A sage and a wise man!" Wen Yanbo replied decisively to Li Shimin that he had won the round.

"Aye, can I send a group of students there?" Li Tai said to Li Shimin.

"King Yue, the sage said that he respected his customs. Could it be that you still want to go against the sage's will!" Wen Yanbo said.

"I think Zhong Shuling misunderstood. You are concerned about whether your advice can be adopted by Aye, but I am concerned about whether Turks can be educated."

Li Tai said calmly,
"Since Aye said that Turkic customs should be respected, then naturally I will not cause trouble.

But I hope Aye can allow me to let my students go to learn Turkic animal husbandry technology! "

"Animal husbandry technology?" Hearing this, Wen Yanbo asked in surprise, "The king of Yue is not going to be a teacher, is he going to be a student?"

"Zi said that three people must have my teacher, not to mention that Turkic has a well-developed animal husbandry industry, and is best at animal husbandry. I send students and teachers to learn, what a shame!"

Li Tai looked at Wen Yanbo calmly, and said calmly:

"I think Zhong Shuling probably forgot, but I am called the Prince of Duck Eggs, and now I can't even count as going back to my old job!"

As long as you don't feel embarrassed these days, it's others who feel embarrassed.

Similarly, as long as he was shameless enough, Wen Yanbo could only point his finger at himself, but in the end he still couldn't say a word.

In this matter, it is impossible to say who is right and who is wrong. It can only be regarded as the political differences between the two parties, not even political enemies.

It's just that after this time, Li Tai's reputation should be more pragmatic, and Li Chengqian's few words still showed the majesty of the prince.

After all, everyone in the room could tell, but his sentence of Heavenly Khan really established the current situation.

Li Tai took a look at Li Chengqian, no matter what he said, although he had never really paid attention to Li Chengqian, he just regarded Li Chengqian as a child.

But after today, if I underestimate him again, I'm afraid I will suffer a big loss in the future.

To be honest, the probability of directly confronting Li Chengqian in the court is not high if he is hanging around outside.

And I don't plan to take the line of party struggle, honestly follow the line of capable ministers, and stabilize my foundation is the right way!
