Cultivation of chastity

Chapter 80 Agreed

Li Tai and Du Ruhui had a good exchange, the atmosphere of the negotiation was very friendly, and they successfully reached an agreement.

For Du Ruhui, it was not only because the plan itself was proposed by Li Tai that King Yue was allowed to join.

And it is very important that such a project must have considerable financial pressure.

There are many places where the Tang court spends money. Under such circumstances, Li Taijia's coming in can reduce the financial pressure on the court.

Still the same sentence, the final foothold of all internal affairs is money, and nothing can be done without money.

And it's okay to give Li Tai some benefits now, especially in the less affluent Longyou regions like Weizhou and Qinzhou.

Although Li Tai's painting of the Silk Road pancake is very beautiful, but Du Ruhui just smiled and would definitely not eat it.

Du Ruhui knew very well that Datang would definitely focus on recuperation in the next few years, and would definitely not use weapons rashly.

So this big pie must be a rootless apple in the short term. Of course, even if the king of Yue is extraordinary, it really made the king of Yue develop.

But Du Ruhui knew that for Li Tai, even though these two ports could make money, they were not fundamental.

After all, if these two piers can really make a lot of money, they will naturally recycle it when Li Chengqian ascends the throne.

If Li Tai's ascension to the throne seems to be a good idea, then the wealth of the Yue Palace will naturally be taken back to the country. After all, the saint is sitting on the world, and the saint's property is naturally the imperial court's!

So in Du Ruhui's view, Li Tai is still a little tender, let Li Tai use his management ability to build a few more prosperous ports like Gaoling's, anyway, this matter will definitely not be a loss for the court.

For Li Tai, this kind of toll-booth-like ferry would never be handed over to private operators.

Even if the imperial court can directly collect taxes, it will definitely not.

After all, the profit of water transportation in this era is actually greater than the profit of road construction in New China.

The difficulty of nursing care after opening up is much lower than the cost of road construction. The economy in this is really huge.

Not to mention, the cotton that I asked Peacock to prepare in Qinzhou did not need to worry about sales at all.

In the future, there will be a rich business road like the Silk Road waiting for me. This is really a cornucopia!

After all, Du Ruhui didn't take the long-term view of himself, Li Tai felt a little bit self-confident.

But Li Tai knew that looking at these things was actually a cover, and if these things were not taken, it would only attract people's attention.

To Li Tai, the interests of several ports are nothing, if he has the heart, it is a bit reluctant to give up...!
Of course, the so-called reluctance is not about financial interests, but more about political interests.

To a certain extent, if I have two ports here, it means that my tentacles have penetrated into Longyou Dao.

However, my biggest achievement this time was not that I got a few ports, but that Du Ruhui accepted the suggestion I put forward to set up a professional Weishui water transport construction team.

At the same time, the water transportation plan has really started, which itself is a major victory for Li Tai.

His own plan is also concealed in the smooth progress of the water transportation plan bit by bit, which can be regarded as a secret.

The key is how many people Du Ruhui can bring in from the court.

It can be said that each of the four departments with full-time jobs can attract five or six people, and Li Tai feels that Du Ruhui's ability is extraordinary.

The Tang court was not a big coward with redundant officials and wasted money, but Li Shimin appointed them according to their abilities at the beginning of his administration, and Fang Xuanling, as his deputy, cooperated with the reduction of officials. They are all used as supermen.

In such an organization, after the Weishui tax payment system is fully implemented, no one knows how the upper-level personnel of the organization will be adjusted, but the grass-roots personnel will basically not undergo adjustments and changes.

Even in order to make this organization famous, it is most likely that these grassroots personnel will be transferred from temporary workers to regular foreign officials, and some will even become internal officials, thus possessing a formal rank.

In particular, the intervention of the official department under Du Ruhui's control increased this possibility to a certain extent.

This kind of thing may be rare in the 21st century, but before the 21st century, this kind of operation was very common.

Many government agencies started out as temporary offices, but as the office handles the processing, the agency becomes a resident agency. At the same time, many temporary workers in it have all been transferred to contract workers, or even transferred to Compiler.

Therefore, it is very likely that this organization specially established for Weishui Water Transport will also follow this procedure.

As for Li Tai, being able to arrange his own students in and give them an expectation of being an official is basically more reliable than anything else, and even because of his low position, he will not receive the attention of the ministers above.

Going back to this matter, why is Li Tai so sure that the students in his school can join the job.

Very simple, first of all because they are innocent.

The school established by Li Tai, the students who come out of it, all the details are clear, even if they are a bit biased towards Li Tai in terms of political stance, but can it be said that their political stance is problematic?
At least in Li Shimin's eyes, they are definitely good sons who are loyal to Datang!

Secondly, the most important thing for Li Tai to train them is to cultivate two qualities, one is practice and the other is mathematics.

Even if Confucian scholars in this era don't discriminate grains and don't work hard, they all go for scientific research.

For Li Tai, he trained them to work.

Li Tai really didn't believe that the Confucian students of this era could compete with the students of agricultural schools in this respect.

Finally, and most importantly, I was also involved in this matter.

I don't send people to high-level people, but only arrange jobs for students from agricultural colleges to some basic jobs at the bottom. These jobs are still temporary workers.

But the fact is, even if he is nepotism, even Du Ruhui has nothing to say.

After all, I just let Ma Zhou come in to work in the high-level, did I install anyone else?

Now for the sake of work efficiency, it is not too much to let the students from my school come to work.

And with Ma Zhou leading them, these students are naturally not rootless in this project. Maybe these students have their own ideas, but as long as they are normal people in an unfamiliar environment, they will definitely stick together, and Ma Zhou It is the core of this group!

Therefore, Li Tai felt that there would be no harm in handing over the students from the agricultural school to Ma Zhou!
The corners of Li Tai's mouth curled up slightly, and he thought in his heart, even if you Du Ruhui were to be ruled out by Fang's conspiracy, it would not be the same to suffer from Lao Tzu's secret loss.

Thinking of this, both Du Ruhui and Li Tai showed harmonious smiles, and the host and guest really enjoyed themselves for a moment.

Looking at the smiles of these two guys, Du Chuke couldn't help but shiver, the smiles of these two guys are too fake!

Continue to take the government affairs and continue to review them. Instead of watching these two guys have their own ghosts here, let's review the government affairs honestly.

This spring, under the smirks of these two guys, it feels a little colder.

"Ah Autumn!"

Li Chunfeng sneezed loudly, looking at the dimmed sun, he felt that the late spring in the north was too cold.

It's already March, why did it suddenly snow when it was said to be snowing!
"Chunfeng, I'm going back to Chang'an with my father in a few days, how are you preparing?" Li Dejian said cheerfully.

"I don't have anything to take with me. I don't have anything long on me. I can start at any time!" Li Chunfeng said.

"When you get back to Chang'an, why don't you invite yourself to Youzhou, and follow my navy to ride the wind and waves together!" Li Dejian said.

Li Dejian encouraged Li Chunfeng. To be honest, he really wanted Li Chunfeng to stay.

Because Li Jing saw Li Chunfeng's attainments in formation, he would occasionally teach Li Chunfeng the formation of Liujinghua.

And Li Chunfeng felt that the changes inside were quite simple, and in the end it was just a change in numerology, so he followed suit.

Li Dejian looked enviously at Li Chunfeng's mastery of Liujinghua, it didn't seem like a human being could make rapid progress.

Li Chunfeng has used soldiers to pose, borrowed corvée, and even used fishing boats.

The natural ease made Li Dejian understand that there is a gap between people, and this gap is bigger than the gap between humans and dogs.

Of course, in addition to hoping to give his ship a chapter, the most important thing is that Li Dejian knew from Li Jing that Li Chunfeng could actually know how to read the sky, which made Li Dejian want to pull him over to be his lieutenant.

After all, for sailors, especially those who are going to march to the ocean, the most important thing is of course the weather.

Although Li Chunfeng can set up an army formation, he is not good at commanding and dispatching. This is just complementary to Li Dejian, so in Li Dejian's view, Li Chunfeng is the comrade-in-arms arranged by God for him!
So I have to dig Li Chunfeng over no matter what I say!
Unfortunately, Li Chunfeng is Li Tai's subordinate.

Although Li Jing was willing to pass on the knowledge of Li Chunfeng's Six Mirror Flowers, it was mainly because it was too difficult to find a successor.

After all, you can't expect Su Dingfang to really concentrate on studying for 20 years, and you may not be able to learn everything.

But Li Jing didn't want to participate in the party struggle, no matter whether he was close to the King of Yue or offended the King of Yue, Li Jing didn't want to do it.

Under such circumstances, if Li Dejian wanted to draw Li Chunfeng to the navy by his own ability, it was purely a dream.

"You lieutenant general, I'm not interested, the King of Yue is waiting for me to go back and repair Zheng Baiqu together!" Li Chunfeng said with a proud expression.

"No wonder you have been concentrating on organizing corvees to deal with the canal issue these days!"

Li Dejian said as if he remembered something, then took out two letters and said:

"I came here this time, and there is another thing. I passed by the post station and found that Chang'an sent a letter. They were all looking for you one after the other, so I brought it for you."

"Give it to me?" Li Chunfeng couldn't help but asked with some doubts, "Who will send it to me?"

During the speech, Li Chunfeng took the letters, one was from Lu Cai, and the other was from Li Tai.

Looking at Chunfeng's personal letter above, Li Chunfeng read the letter happily, and his face changed suddenly after reading it.

Li Chunfeng didn't talk too much, and immediately picked up another one. After reading it, he couldn't help being extremely angry, and cursed: "Lu Chuzhi, you prodigal son of a flower house, you actually recommend me as the mansion of Youzhou branch school?" Chang, when I return to Chang'an, I will make you look good!"

"Huh?" Hearing Li Chunfeng's slow anger, Li Dejian was stunned and couldn't help saying, "Are you going to stay in Youzhou?"

"That bastard Lu Cai sent me even the students! How could I still be able to leave!" Li Chunfeng said angrily.

"Oh?!" Hearing this, Li Dejian couldn't help but smile, and patted Li Chunfeng on the shoulder and said,
"When they come, I'll clean up the dust for you together, haha, you can stay with me too!"

Li Chunfeng curled his lips but did not speak, and could only sigh at the moment, it seemed that Zheng Baiqu could not be repaired by himself!

Li Chunfeng stayed in Youzhou and began to work hard to build a university in Youzhou.

And for Li Chunfeng to find someone to help build the school, it is not difficult for Li Chunfeng now.

When the students and teachers arranged by Lu Cai arrived, in fact, the outer outline of Youzhou Academy had already been built in sevens and eights.

In addition to bringing sufficient and convenient human resources, their arrival most importantly brought a large amount of silk and satin.

Silk and satin are money in this era, and Li Chunfeng has money in his hands, so he can buy some basic facilities in Youzhou.

The entire Youzhou branch of the Agricultural University also became very popular under Li Chunfeng's attention.

According to the reality of Youzhou, Li Chunfeng started to build it after imitating Chang'an's agricultural college.

Of course, Li Dejian's help is also very important, especially the training for the newly enrolled local students from Youzhou is very hard work.

After all, according to Li Dejian's thinking, I can't poach you, and I can't poach your students!

All in all, Li Chunfeng built the Youzhou branch school according to Li Tai's wishes.

It's just that I want to stay in Youzhou temporarily, and watch Li Jing take the army back to Shuozhou.

After all, Li Jing still had to deal with the affairs of the Turkic tribes. When Li Jing's class teacher returned to the court, it would be June at least.

At this moment, Gaoling, after a relatively busy spring plowing, has also entered the harvest season in May.

Seeing the golden winter wheat growing in large tracts, Li Tailai showed a satisfied smile on his face.

"This year is finally an eye-opener. There will be no disasters or difficulties this year. I didn't expect it to be such a good year!" Lu Cai sighed.

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and get ready to harvest, the wheat is harvested, the straw is sorted out, no one knows if it will rain these days!"

Looking at the golden scene, Li Tai urged Lu Cai.

"King Yue, don't worry, the preparations started ten days ago.

This is a good year that I have been waiting for for many years.

If I spoil it because of insufficient preparation, then I can't forgive myself! "

Lu Cai looked at the golden wheat field at this moment, but couldn't help but took out his bamboo flute, wanting to play a song!
