Datang first village

For a general, the best destination is there, a battlefield, not a hospital bed!

Qu Tutong didn't want to wait to die on the hospital bed, this was Li Yuanxing's only understanding of Qu Tutong.

For three days, Qu Tutong took the usual amount of medicine for thirteen days, Qu Tutong obviously had made up his mind.

"Your Highness, the Patriarchs of the Fang and Zhang Clans are asking for an audience. A total of more than 40 officials from Henan Province, Jiannan Province, Huainan Province, and Shannan Province have come to report." Lu Maofeng came in to report.

As soon as Li Yuanxing looked away from the book, he asked softly: "Who is the highest rank?"

"The highest one is no more than a chief official from the fifth rank."

"No, tell them, if it's about food, go to see Cui Dunli. For the rest, leave a book. After reading it, the king thinks it is valuable and will naturally meet them!" After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, his eyes returned to the book and continued: "Patriarchs Rangfang and Zhang, come to the study to see me!"

Li Yuanxing has changed, both in his mentality and in his way of doing things.

It can be said that Li Yuanxing was most influenced by Li Er, and the reason is as simple as two words, King Qin.

Lu Maofeng had a deeper understanding of King Qin's title than Li Yuanxing, and when he left Li Yuanxing's study and came to the waiting room outside where the audience waited, he raised his head high and said in a tepid voice, "Fang and Zhang, see you. "

Many officials stood up, waiting for their arrangements.

Seeing the Patriarchs of the Fang and Zhang Clans saluting him and leaving the door, Lu Maofeng said unhurriedly: "Everyone, Your Highness has orders. Cui Changshi of the Prince of Qin's Palace has full power to deal with the matter of food. If there are other matters, Please leave the book, His Highness will make a decision after reading it, and the young general will resign!"

Even if Lu Maofeng's nose is already pointing upwards, the necessary etiquette is indispensable.

Even if he is not afraid of being impeached, he is also afraid of the rules of the Qin Palace.

The officials also returned a salute, which was not a surprise to them.

His Royal Highness Qin Wang is not someone they want to see, but they will have the opportunity to see it, and they came here just to find an opportunity.

In Li Yuanxing's study, the heads of Fang and Zhang's families saw the ceremony, and then sat aside.

"Both of you, why don't you understand the matter of harvesting grain, or do you have suggestions." Li Yuanxing had to ask these two families, because the corn they planted accounted for [-]% of Luoyang.And in the coming year, opening up wasteland, digging canals, storing fertilizer, etc. are all the affairs of the two of them.

"Your Highness, the 300 million pigs put a lot of pressure on our two families. Can we distribute some to each village? If a village collectively raises about 300 pigs, then there will be [-] million pigs on the market this winter!" said Fang's Patriarch. Report respectfully.

Li Yuanxing shook his head.

Seeing Li Yuanxing shaking his head, the two Patriarchs were very nervous, and their palms were sweating involuntarily.

"You are wrong. This king told you that this king wants 300 million pigs. Then, how to raise them is up to you. Let the Luoyang government have no objection and satisfy the common people. You will benefit yourself, and this king's request will be met. This It's the grades, how about it, each of your two families will produce two young children, and they will be officials in Luoyang Mansion, in charge of farming and animal husbandry!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

"Two things!" Li Yuanxing stretched out two fingers.

The two patriarchs hurriedly took out a small book to record. With the rapid improvement of papermaking technology, Datang also began to use small notebooks for personal notes.The pens used are naturally not high-end ballpoint pens, but the new ink made of water, oil, and ink, coupled with the nib made of chicken beaks, has become the mainstream of hard-tipped pen calligraphy.

"The first thing is that you send people to Chang'an. Agriculture is still a science. When you really understand the term three-dimensional agriculture, Luoyang alone can support half of the people in the Tang Dynasty. The first sent People must not be perfunctory."

After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, both of them hurriedly promised that they would definitely send the elite children of the clan to study.

Li Yuanxing sat down again: "Remember, during the natural disaster, the two sergeants were carried by Mr. Su. It was their honor. This king would like to ask, the old general Qu Tu also did something for Luoyang. The corn planting, the people riches, he has done many things, his days are numbered, people..."

It is the greatest honor for Mr. Su to carry the coffin. Not to mention that Li Yuanxing is the king of Qin, even the emperor Li Er of the Tang Dynasty would not ask the people to do anything here.

Only the spontaneous ones can be regarded as the real coffin-carrying of the old man.

"Your Highness, we have already inquired about this matter. Please forgive me, Your Highness!"

What a sentence of forgiveness, Li Yuanxing understood, and nodded: "There is nothing else, this king shouldn't ask about this matter."

"Your Highness, Old General Qu is an official of the Tang Dynasty. It is his duty to calm the party, and he has only been in Luoyang for more than a year. The two sergeants are different. They are just ordinary sergeants. They risked their lives to save them. Irrelevant people, natural disasters and catastrophes, no one among the people died, no one was lost, this is the virtue of heaven!"

"That's right. As an important minister of the court, it is natural to benefit the common people. This is my king's mistake."

The two patriarchs bowed and did not dare to say any more, and stepped back a few steps out of Li Yuanxing's study.

It seemed that there was all bad news today, which made Li Yuanxing not in a good mood. When he had lunch with Wang Yuyan and the other three girls that day, the smile on Li Yuanxing's face was faked.

Although the three girls could tell that Li Yuanxing was unhappy, no one dared to ask during lunch time.

Interfering in government affairs is a taboo in the backyard. All seven women have reached a consensus on this point. Unless His Royal Highness King Qin takes the initiative to mention it, you must never ask about political affairs.

After lunch, a piece of good news appeared that made Li Yuanxing ecstatic.

Su An arrived!

It was not because of Su An's arrival, but because of the caravan brought by Su An, and because he wanted to sell more goods, he went to Liangzhou first.

"Your Highness, there is a eucommia forest that stretches as far as the eye can see. The little one saw a tree that was ten feet high, and neither of them could hold it. The rest were about seven or eight feet high, and many of them were as thick as a hug."

Li Yuanxing slapped the table hard: "Okay!"

How can it be bad? Eucommia ulmoides is a treasure. As far as medicinal materials are concerned, it can nourish the liver and kidney, strengthen the muscles and bones, regulate the Chongren, strengthen the meridians and relieve the fetus.No matter men, women or children, it is nourishing top grade.

But just this is not enough to make Li Yuanxing excited.

You must know that Sun Laodao spent a lot of effort, but he only found tens of thousands of wild Eucommia in Yaozhou, and there were no more than [-] of them artificially planted. I don't know how many years it will take for these to become useful.

Eucommia, in the words of Westerners, has another name.

Chinese rubber tree!

What Li Yuanxing wanted was Eucommia gum.

Li Yuanxing probably knew the place Su An mentioned, and it was in Lueyang County of Hanzhong City in later generations.

(Lueyang County is located in the upper reaches of the Jialing River, on the southern slope of the western section of the Qinling Mountains. Because it is the hub of Qin and Shu and the link between Shaanxi and Gansu, it has been regarded as a place where military strategists must contend and business travel converge for thousands of years. The reputation of "Shuoke". The ancient name of Lueyang is very rich. With the establishment and evolution of successive dynasties, it has been called "Juxian", "Wuxing", "Shunzheng", "Xingzhou", "Mianzhou" and so on. )

This place was originally one of the important places for the development of Bashu, and Li Yuanxing had long wanted to open a pier there.

Now is a good opportunity. Eucommia alone has huge industrial value.

"I'm in a hurry for eight hundred miles. I want Wei Zheng to know what to do next. Wei Zheng will definitely satisfy me." Li Yuanxing laughed loudly.

Su An took the order and retreated.

"Come here, pass on Li Min!" Li Yuanxing became very excited.

No matter where Li Yin was, even in Datang where there was no telephone, Li Yuanxing's personal guards could find Li Yin immediately and bring him to Li Yuanxing.

"Uncle Fifth Emperor!" Li Min gave a salute and stood aside politely.

Li Yuanxing smiled, looked at Li Yin and smiled.Li Yin is just a child, but what Li Yuanxing wants is a child's nonsense.When Li Yin did some things, no one would say anything, it was just as if there were children messing around.But if an adult goes crazy like this, he might be affected.

"Li Yin, do you want your tricycle to run so fast that it can pull up to ten thousand catties!"

"Think!" Li Yin agreed without thinking.

Li Yuanxing picked up a pen and wrote two words on the paper: train.Then he threw it to Li Yin: "Go back to Chang'an quickly, and give this note to Princess Mingyue. Next, you study with humility and create a miracle!"

"Yes!" Li Yin knelt down and made a big salute, then carefully put away the note before leaving.

The good news comes one after another.

Lu Maofeng came to report again: "Your Highness, Old General Qu is ready to get out of bed."

Li Yuanxing was overjoyed, but immediately followed by sadness.

Qu Tutong's life is like a battery, the battery has come to an end, the better he is now, and the more power he consumes, the sooner his life will come to an end.

Whether it's joy or sorrow, Li Yuanxing will visit him in person.

Qu Tutong had already put on his formal attire, and when he saw Li Yuanxing's visit, he greeted him from a distance, and bowed: "Your Highness, the veteran is polite. Hahaha!"

Qu Tutong was in a very good mood, and his face was also very good.

But Li Yuanxing felt an inexplicable heartache. He and Qu Tutong were not friends because they didn't have a deep relationship.But with this not too deep intersection, Li Yuanxing can also feel the righteousness in Qu Tutong's heart, the kind of dedication for the Great Tang Dynasty.

"Congratulations Jiang Guogong!" Li Yuanxing cupped his fists and saluted.

Qu Tutong smiled, with a hint of shame in this smile, and after another salute: "Your Highness, please come inside!"

When entering the room, Li Yuanxing took a special look at Xuejing, Xuejing shook her head lightly, and then closed her eyes.A tear fell from the corner of his eye.

When they entered the room together, Li Yuanxing took another look at Qu Tutong, who was blushing.

From the reactions of these two people, Li Yuanxing thought of a word.A very sad word, come back! (To be continued.)
