Datang first village

buy!

Li Er smiled helplessly, and patted Li Yuanxing's shoulders vigorously a few times: "If you have silver, you can't buy it. Because Wu Lang, you are not buying a person, but a person from a state. You, there are so many people there?"

Li Yuanxing was dumb because he really couldn't answer.

The Tang Dynasty is different from the modern times of later generations. When a certain area is economically developed in modern times, a lot of labor is needed there, and many people will move there with their families and then settle in a certain area.

Datang is different.You must have a reason to run around here in Datang.

Officials and official messengers all need special roads, and businessmen have businessmen's road guides.Ordinary people leave their hometowns to work, that is, a place a hundred miles away. I am afraid that they will only be able to stay away from their hometowns when they flee from a catastrophe. Under normal circumstances, the mobility of the population is extremely poor.

Take Chang'an in the past six months as an example.

The number of people who need to work in Chang'an County's workshop area has reached 5, but these people are basically people around Chang'an City.In counties farther away, no one came to Chang'an to work.

Even in Huazhou, it is only more than 100 miles away from Chang'an, but there are only more than 1000 people who really opened the way to lead to Chang'an.

Li Yuanxing turned his head sideways, but did not look at Li Er, but focused on the imperial army.

"Don't think about capturing slaves. Although our brothers are not the gentlemen who say that, the Tang Dynasty did not prohibit the slave trade. But Goro, have you ever thought about what will happen if too many slaves are captured? Let's talk about Goguryeo. If the Goguryeo people feel that Datang is very dangerous, then the battle must be fought to the death."

Li Er saw Li Yuanxing's thoughts with just one look.

Before Li Yuanxing could speak, Li Er said again: "Wulang, do you think that slaves can be used well in the first year?"

"Alas..." Li Yuanxing let out a long sigh.

"Well, I will hand over Huazhou to you for my brother. You can do whatever you want. The only thing you can't do is get the people from the surrounding states and counties to Huazhou, and I don't care about the rest. Even if Wulang, you have something new Ideas can also be tried in Washington State, for example, the food tax exemption policy you mentioned!"

Li Yuanxing did not expect that Li Er would be so generous this time.

"Brother Huang, the minister can't be stingy anymore, give him a mining area. This small marble mine is definitely no less profitable than a gold mine." Li Yuanxing said, taking out a mine from his bag. When the tablet comes, turn it on and go to the picture of Dali. "Swipe to flip to the next one!"

Li Er has seen high-tech things, but never used them.

Marble, also known as marble. (Although marble is already the official name, the name of marble is also well documented)

There are hundreds of colors, among which the white background, the one with sky blue and black patterns, Li Er stared at it and was unwilling to turn to the next page.

"Goro said that my brother's study should be on the ground like this, it's very nice!"

Li Yuanxing took the tablet and quickly found a group of photos in it, which were the renderings produced by the modern film company of later generations.This is the rendering of the main hall of the imperial palace in the brand new, huge Chang'an City requested by Li Yuanxing.

"Brother Huang, the golden steps, the fiery red doorposts, and the black floor. The pure copper and gold-clad pillars, the golden nanmen gate, and then 99 steps, with granite as the base, a pair of The huge stone carving of Nine Dragons is 99 feet long and 99 feet wide, and on both sides of the steps, there are [-] suanni in different shapes."

"Okay, that's great!" Li Er really liked it.

Li Yuanxing went on to say: "For an envoy from a foreign country, just seeing this palace will make him feel like an old farmer from the countryside!"

"Okay, very good!" Li Er praised again.

At this time, Li Yuanxing gave a strange smile: "Brother Emperor, I have prepared everything. There is only one problem. I have no way to start work this year, so I have to wait until next year."

"in trouble?"

"There are no craftsmen to work. To build a palace, at least tens of thousands of craftsmen will need to work for a year, or even several years. Of course, a big hall can definitely be repaired in a year, and there are no people who move bricks, so..."

Li Er understood that Li Yuanxing needed people, and he needed people more than Li Yuanxing.

However, Li Er is the emperor, and he will not be disturbed by Li Yuanxing's few words: "There will be natural disasters next year. If the palace is built now, there will definitely be some old sour students who hate me. Arouse people's resentment, and then..."

Having said that, Li Er didn't say any more.

There is no need to go on, anyway, it is not a good thing.

"The technique of planting white fungus, do you want it, brother?"

"Can it be converted into cash?" Li Er asked back with a smile.

Li Yuanxing smiled: "Well, I should do something for the emperor, otherwise I will not feel at ease. Why not, how about renovating the bedroom?"

"How about adding the main hall?" Li Er asked with a smile.

The two returned to the study room, which had been tidied up. Li Er looked at the pattern on it and nodded with satisfaction, then shook his head lightly: "This pattern is not good. Brother Wei prefers the white floor." Li Er He snatched Li Yuanxing's tablet, but he couldn't open it.

After asking Li Yuanxing to open it, he turned to the picture and found the circle on one of the marbles: "I want this for my brother."

Li Yuanxing snatched the tablet back as soon as he reached out his hand: "Brother Huang, how about it. I will ask people to mine more marble, and cut all kinds of patterns into one-foot-square pieces, and then send them to Brother Huang. Brother Huang looked at it. Pick the stone yourself. After you pick it, within a month, I will replace all the floors of the main hall with new ones!"

"this is okay!"

Li Yuanxing asked again at this time: "Brother Emperor, there is really no other way, I need..." After Li Yuanxing calculated the minimum population in his heart, he sighed helplessly, and Li Erxiao stretched out his hand. With one hand, he turned it over: "One hundred thousand households, this is the minimum amount you need for Goro, you can't do it for your brother!"

Li Yuanxing shook his head with a wry smile.

Li Er said again: "Don't say it's because you can't do it for your brother, even if Tianying Pavilion wants to break your head, it can't make up [-] households for you!"

Li Yuanxing didn't even eat lunch, he wasn't in the mood to eat, and he wasn't in the mood to chat with Li Er again.He really went back to the Tiance Admiral's mansion, returned to the bedroom and lay down on the bed.

Li Yuanxing was troubled, not because of Huazhou.But Datang!

It can be said that the development of Datang has reached a bottleneck, not only Huazhou, but the entire Datang is facing this problem.And there is only one way to solve the problem, and that is to wait.

Wait at least ten or eight years for the population to increase before it can be considered a real solution.

The melodious piano sound suddenly sounded at this time, Li Yuanxing immediately wanted to get angry when the melodious piano sound first appeared, and any sound at this time would annoy him even more.But before Li Yuanxing cursed, his mood unexpectedly calmed down. The sound of the zither seemed to be the feeling of Taoism's "Qing Xin Mantra".

Slowly closing his eyes, Li Yuanxing slowly closed his eyes under the sound of the piano.

There is nothing wrong, the problem cannot be solved in a hurry, since it is impossible to solve it now, let's make more plans for the future.

Li Yuanxing calmed down and began to think about how to solve the current problem.

The sound of the piano stopped, but Li Yuanxing didn't feel it either.On the contrary, it was the light footsteps that made Li Yuanxing aware.

When he felt a figure beside the bed, Li Yuanxing heard: "His Royal Highness seems to be asleep. I saw His Highness frowning just now..." It was Mei Jian who spoke. Pulled to **.Mei Jian opened her mouth, wanted to scream but didn't make a sound.

I am Mei Jian, and I also have expectations in my heart.

Yuan Chun was taken aback for a moment, then backed away with a secret smile.

"Yuanchun, call Wei Changshi!" Li Yuanxing didn't stop when he spoke.

Before Yuan Chun withdrew, Mei Jian couldn't help but groaned, just being hugged made her feel as if she was about to be melted.

About 10 minutes later, Li Yuanxing sat in his study.

Bai Yuexuan, if the censors knew about it, the saliva would not kill him, so Li Yuanxing just took advantage of some of his hands, and left the bedroom in full clothes.

A very simple bowl of noodles, just put two extra eggs on top.

Wei Zhengren was in Tiance Admiral's Mansion, and in terms of official positions, Wei Zheng was Chief Shi of Tiance General's Mansion, and Cui Dunli was Chief Shi of Qin Wang's Mansion.

"Your Highness is so frugal, it makes the ministers feel ashamed!"

"Don't talk nonsense. If you have anything to report first, ask any questions first. After a while, I have something to make up your mind, or I have already made up my mind. You can refer to the details one or two !" Li Yuanxing just ate his noodles without even raising his head.

Wei Zheng didn't talk nonsense, and directly opened his notebook.

Cui Yiye and Yuan Chun were also sitting at the small desk next to Li Yuanxing, readying pens and paper for recording.Cui Yiye's record is for King Qin's daily life record, while Yuan Chun will not record in such detail, but only select key points to record, so that Li Yuanxing can check the key points of this conversation.

"Your Highness, the train has been in normal operation for 35 days, which is exactly half a month. For the passenger part, the actual charge is 7000 yuan, with a total of more than [-] tickets of all levels. It can be said that the entire Chang'an is calculated on a per capita basis. Half of the people have already taken the train. However, many people have taken the train many times, and the merchants in the Chamber of Commerce Street, once a day in the morning and evening, are already as indispensable as eating every day!"

Listening to Wei Zheng's report, Li Yuanxing probably knew it well.

Wei Zheng continued: "Your Highness, according to this calculation, the train will lose money, and it will be lost forever."

"You must have some plans?" Li Yuanxing asked with a smile.

"Yes, if you want this train to really make money, you must use a two-pronged approach, and you must be able to make the train run without subsidizing money!" (To be continued.)
