The heavens start from saving Daming

Chapter 384 War drums sound and horns sound, and things are bought in the city

After the Xuanwumen Incident, the Turks who heard the news immediately sent troops to the south in an attempt to take advantage of the civil strife in the Tang Dynasty to destroy their country.

Li Er was forced to make peace talks with the Turkic army that had already approached outside Chang'an City. Both sides beheaded their white horses and swore an oath to sign the Weishui alliance.

The Weishui alliance is an alliance under the city. In order to let the Turks retreat, Li Er had to pay a lot of gold, silver, money and silk, and let the Turks loot many people on the border.

For Li Er, who has been victorious in all battles, this alliance under the city is regarded as an unforgettable shame and humiliation in his life.

Especially the fact that the opposition force always took this matter as an issue, which made Li Er furious. Day and night, he thought about arresting Xie Li and humiliating him in every possible way.

After several years of recuperation, Datang has gradually quelled the chaos caused by the Xuanwumen Incident, and Li Er, who has accumulated some strength, is about to take revenge immediately.

"These are given to the soldiers who went to the Turks."

Inside the Li Family Manor, Li Yunze gestured to the wine jars piled up in front of the entire warehouse, motioned to Fang Xuanling and said, "The soldiers who go out to fight for the country are all true heroes. These are all given away for free."

Cheerful Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and smiled, "Li Langjun is grand, with so much fine wine, he will definitely inspire the soldiers."

"and many more."

Li Yunze quickly stopped him, "This is not wine."

Fang Xuanling sniffed the strong aroma of the wine, and Fang Xuanling was puzzled, "Excuse me for being stupid, what is this wine?"

"It's alcohol." Li Yunze explained seriously, "It's of high purity."

Fang Xuanling'(°ー°〃)'

This is really stupid, what does this mean.

"This stuff is not for drinking, it's for healing wounds." Li Yunze kindly explained, "You and I both know that not many people died on the battlefield, and the place where the real dead are the most is in the wounded barracks. Those Most of the wounded soldiers died of sores, that is, wounds

Mouth infection. "

Fang Xuanling was not familiar with wound infections, but he knew about sores, "That is to say, after using this alcohol, you won't get sores?"

"I dare not say too much, I can only say that it has a very good effect."

He took out a document about wound infection treatment and stuffed it into Fang Xuanling's hands, and then took him to the warehouse next door, pointing to the many gauzes inside, "Using these gauzes together can reduce the death rate of wounded soldiers." .”

"This is?" Fang Xuanling stepped forward to inspect the "silk cloth?"

"It's cotton."

Li Yunze picked up a paragraph and said, "It is made of cotton, and there is no cotton in Tang Dynasty, so I paid for it myself."

"Cotton?" Fang Xuanling quickly grasped the point.

Before he could make a request, Li Yunze had already dragged him to another warehouse, "This is dried meat."

All the boxes are filled with marinated beef, the kind that can be preserved for a long time.

"This is cheese." Li Yunze picked up a tin bucket and handed it to Fang Xuanling, indicating, "This is cheese, and together with dried meat, it is dry food for soldiers."

Looking at the beef and cheese that looked like bricks in front of him, Fang Xuanling repeatedly praised, "My Tang soldiers used to go out to fight, just to eat some dry food. Li Langjun's great kindness, the Tang Dynasty will never forget it."

"You don't need to be polite to me." Li Yunze's smile deepened, "All of these require money."

After leaving the warehouse area, there is a pasture not far away. In the pasture surrounded by wooden fences, hundreds of horses are already ready.

"I know the prestige of the Great Tang cavalry." Li Yunze gestured to the many Don horses in the fence, "These are gifts, and they are a gift to thank His Majesty for granting me the land to open shops in the East City and West City."

Mentioning this, Fang Xuanling's eyes twitched involuntarily.

Fortunately for those in the East City, the land that Li Yunze asked for was not large, just the size of an ordinary shop.

But the west city side is too exaggerated, it is almost [-] acres of land!

The entire West Market is only so big, and it is truly amazing that such a large area of ​​the bustling West Market has been taken away.
Seeing Fang Xuanling's dissatisfied expression, Li Yunze smiled slightly, "Fang Gong, I gave something."

Hearing this, Fang Xuanling was even more dissatisfied.

Li Yunze did pay for these two pieces of land, thousands of four-wheel carts, tens of thousands of pairs of rubber shoes, tens of thousands of sets of raincoats, etc., and these things are all military supplies.

As the prime minister, he was in charge of civil affairs because it was difficult for the emperor to intervene in the military affairs because of the powerful horse.

But what Li Yunze gave was useless for civil affairs.

This is called doing whatever you sit on.

Fang Xuanling, who was in charge of civil affairs, was dissatisfied because he had left the land but failed to get the corresponding return, while Li Jing, the secretary of the Ministry of War and the chief of the army, praised Li Yunze repeatedly, and wrote to him several times to express his gratitude.

Li Yunze was too lazy to continue the introduction, and directly stated, "Everything is ready, Fang Gong will send someone to take it away."

Fang Xuanling sighed, delivering logistics to the army is not a good job.

I don't get much credit for doing it well, but I have to take the blame for doing it wrong, which is really depressing.

In addition to the ones I have seen before, there are also piles of alfalfa that have been packed and bundled for transportation.

In addition, there are soybean oil and cauliflower oil contained in Nuoda wooden barrels. The huge amount makes people feel unbelievable. After all, no one thought that so much oil could be produced.

Datang's oil is mainly animal oil, while the mainstream vegetable oil is flax, that is, sesame oil.

Sesame oil is of course a good thing, but the problem is that the output of sesame is not much, and the method of pressing the oil is simple and primitive, and the efficiency is low, resulting in low output.

Li Yunze's side is different.

Lijiazhuang not only planted a large area of ​​soybeans and rapeseed, but also rented a large number of noble fields and even Huangzhuang for planting.

Coupled with advanced pressing equipment, its oil yield is high, and the vegetable oil obtained is far beyond the scope of imagination.

Not only is the oil produced, but the bean dregs left after soybeans are pressed for many rounds are made into bean cakes, which are excellent feed for livestock.

The oil yield of rapeseed is also very high, and the residue after oil is also useful.

Rapeseed dregs is a high-quality feed raw material, which contains high protein, cellulose and minerals and other nutrients, and when used with bean dregs, it is the best feed.

And it contains higher organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other elements.It can increase soil nutrient content, improve soil structure, enhance soil water retention function, and become a good organic fertilizer after decomposing.

It is true that land has been the most important means of production since ancient times.

The massive amount of materials obtained through planting crops is stronger than anything else.

Fang Xuanling organized corvee labor and used a lot of manpower and carts to send massive supplies to the northern front.

The traffic environment in Datang is not very good, but the traffic system near Chang'an City is very good.

In addition to the road constructed by Li Yunze with cinders and slag plus earth and cement, the most important thing is that the Qin Zhidao built by the First Emperor can still be used.

The first emperor also liked big projects, even better than Sui Yangdi.

Moreover, the projects he has done are not only large, but more importantly, they have quality assurance.

After all, in the Qin Dynasty, no one dared to engage in tofu projects under the eyes of the first emperor, and it would really kill their heads.

It has been almost 900 years since Qin Zhidao, and it is still the best main road in the entire Guanzhong area, and even in the entire Tang Dynasty.

It can even be used all the time in history, and it has been used until the entry of the Tartars.

It can be said that all dynasties have been receiving the favor of the first emperor.

Of course, the same is true for the Grand Canal dug by Emperor Sui Yang.

There was an endless stream of civilian convoys heading north from Chang'an City, and the attention of the nobles and common people from the ruling and opposition parties were all focused on the upcoming war.

At this time, Li Yunze's shops and shopping malls in the East City and West City opened for business in a very peaceful manner.

Li Yunze is not interested in fighting. He has fought too many battles in the parallel world before, and he has already reached the point of numbness.

This time I came to change my life, and I didn't mean to get involved at all.

The Great Tang people's war is naturally the responsibility of the Datang people themselves, at most he can provide some material and technical support.

The shop Li Yunze opened in Dongshi had been surrounded by a big curtain before. On the day of the opening, he widely posted hero posts and invited many nobles to visit.

The common people in Guanzhong may not know much about Li Yunze and Li Family Village, but the nobles do know it clearly, after all, the sources of information are different.

They knew that Li Yunze was a strange person with great supernatural powers, and the materials and technology he brought out also shocked them.

So when faced with Li Yunze's invitation, basically anyone who was in Chang'an City basically came.

On this day, there was a rush of cars and horses in the East City, and many nobles were so full that they almost crowded the roads here.

As the curtains of the shops in Dongshi were pulled down, the nobles who were chatting before were all dumbfounded, and some even exclaimed.

The reason is very simple. On one side of the street of this mysterious shop, there is actually a large glazed mirror!
Glass is not uncommon, almost all nobles have seen it.

But such a large piece of colored glaze is too surprising.

Li Yunze came out from the store gate, and cupped his hands to everyone around him, "The store is open for business today, all the distinguished guests are so splendid."

After some unnutritious opening speeches, Li Yunze signaled everyone to enter the store for a visit.

Walking into the store, the interior layout is completely different from that of traditional stores. The most notable thing is that you can see large pieces of colored glaze everywhere, and even multiple pieces of colored glaze are gathered to wrap the products inside.

"You are all good money owners, so all the items sold in this small shop are expensive items."

Li Yunze walked to the side of a kerosene lamp and said, "Although the price is more expensive, it is definitely worth the money."

"This is a kerosene lamp, which is windproof. Compared with traditional torches, braziers, lanterns, and candles, the brightness of its light is definitely at the level of hanging." He signaled to lower the surrounding curtains to block the outside light and lit the kerosene lamp.

The soft and bright light emanates through the clean glass, and its brightness is amazing.

"Li Langjun." Cheng Yaojin was the first to jump out and shouted, "This lamp is really good, but I want that big glass mirror in your store more."

"That's not glass, that's called glass."

Li Yunze said with a smile, "It's okay to want glass, I have a lot of glass products here."

The curtain was raised again, and Li Yunze called the staff to bring out a two-meter-high full-length mirror.

Cheng Yaojin was the first to jump out, standing in front of the mirror and seeing himself inside was so delicate that he could even see the frown on his face clearly.

Needless to say, I know that this is definitely a big baby.

"This is a full-length mirror, very suitable for making gestures in front of the mirror when getting dressed." Li Yunze clapped his hands and introduced, "My wives at home must like it very much."

"No one is allowed to rob me." Cheng Yaojin, with bright eyes, immediately covered the full-length mirror and stared at everyone, "I want this!"

The nobles immediately cursed, everyone wants such a good thing.

There was an uproar in the store, all kinds of yelling and cursing were heard, and it even quickly developed in the direction of doing something.

Everyone thinks it's a treasure, and everyone wants it.

When there was a lot of trouble, a yell sounded at the door of the store, "What kind of noise is it, shut up!"

Li Er is the only one who dares to shut up many nobles of the Tang Dynasty in this Chang'an city.

Seeing that the emperor had also come, everyone silenced.

Li Er stepped up to the dressing mirror, pushed Cheng Yaojin away and looked carefully.

After a while, he nodded in satisfaction, "I want this thing."
