Datang first village

Chapter 81: Lian Nong!

Li Yuanxing said that Chang'an and Luoyang would have [-] more literate people in one year. This idea, not to mention Qu Tutong, even Li Er was extremely excited.

Books are not accessible to ordinary people.

The books are all among the aristocratic families, one among the folks, one is the Analects of Confucius.Even if it is a manuscript with errors, it will not be less than one hundred words.For an ordinary family, this is the price of hundreds of catties of grain.

Thirteen articles, Li Er believes that Li Yuanxing will create a miracle.

Li Yuanxing continued at this time: "The third important task is farming. Luoyang is a good place. If it is used properly, it can have tens of millions of mu, or even hundreds of millions of mu of land, which will become the first big granary in the Tang Dynasty. According to Ten shi for one mu of land..." Li Yuanxing paused for a moment: "No, calculated on the basis of eight shi, more than a billion shi of grain."

Li Yuanxing said, with a longing expression on his face.

Qu Tutong has lived to be 70 years old!

He has experienced wars and famines, and he has witnessed the tragedy of hungry people changing their sons to eat.He is well aware of the importance of food, more than one billion stones, piled up is a mountain, a mountain that makes people all over the world feel at ease.

"It's noon on the day of hoeing, sweat drips down the soil, who knows that the food on the plate is hard work!" Qu Tutong couldn't help thinking of this poem that came out of Li Yuanxing's mouth.

Li Yuanxing does not remember the source of the poem, but it seems to be from the Tang Dynasty as well.

With Li Yuanxing's knowledge, he could memorize no more than [-] poems, of course there must be the poem "Three Goose".

"What a pity for peasants!" Li Er praised.

Li Yuanxing was a little embarrassed, his face blushed slightly, and he immediately changed the topic: "Luoyang has a lot of wasteland. The barren land is barren and poorly maintained, and it can produce eight shi, and there can be a hundred shi of silage for cattle and horses per mu."

Qu Tutong, who was kneeling on the cushion, straightened up and silently bowed.

There is nothing more to say, this is indeed an important task, an important task for the country.The only thing Qu Tutong used to reward Li Yuanxing was to complete this task.

Qu Tutong left, and he decided to leave Chang'an for Luoyang within three days.

Li Er and Li Yuanxing were the only ones in the study. Looking at Qu Tutong's back from a distance, Li Yuanxing said: "The old general is afraid that he has more energy than his heart. But if you don't comfort the old general's heart, I'm afraid he will be cold." Hearts of all generals!"

"Insufficient strength, there are two gentlemen Fang Du!" Li Er answered with a smile beside him.

"Brother Huang, do you really dare to let me lead the army? I have never been in a war, and I have never killed anyone!" Li Yuanxing was not guilty, but just wanted to hear Li Er's thoughts.

Li Er pulled Li Yuanxing to sit down: "Wulang, the first time I killed a brother was 14 years old. You are General Tiance, you have to dare to kill. You are not as good at martial arts as the generals are not afraid of, but if you want to convince the sergeants, then you Be courageous and fair. The best way to control the soldiers is to win the battle, and the more people come back alive, the higher your prestige will be!"

"Understood!" Li Yuanxing nodded seriously.

"You are away on an expedition, so you don't have to worry about all logistics, I will help you!" Li Er patted Li Yuanxing on the shoulder.

Li Yuanxing nodded with a smile, and said to stand still: "I heard that the sons of the Xungui family competed, but I actually have an idea. The nobles of the Tang Dynasty are all nobles. It can be said that the Tang Dynasty belongs to the royal family, but there is also It belongs to the nobles and the common people, why the nobles can be superior, because they have paid a lot for the Great Tang."

"It makes sense!"

After receiving Li Er's praise, Li Yuanxing became more confident: "Then, Datang actually stands at the top, that is, our royal family and nobles. When encountering troubles, the royal family can't fall behind, and the nobles can't just wait to enjoy themselves. No pay, no return!"

"Okay, well, if you don't pay, you don't get anything in return!"

Li Er stood up excitedly, and walked around the study several times: "Brother, you must think about this sentence carefully, you can't leave the things of enjoying yourself to the juniors of those honorable families, these little guys are the scourge of Chang'an! "

"The scourge has become a warrior, civil servant?"

"Good idea!" Brothers Li Er and Li Yuanxing laughed loudly. Since they are nobles, they have to pay, and they pay more than ordinary people.

Li Yuanxing continued confidently: "Add one more, there is no lower limit to meritorious service, and no upper limit to meritorious service."

"tell me the story!"

"There is no lower limit to meritorious service. As long as you are a member of the Tang Dynasty, no matter who you are, even if you are a slave, you will be rewarded if you have made meritorious deeds. A slave has been on the battlefield dozens of times and has made countless achievements. Then what? Become a captain, and then a general Owning the title, and finally becoming a duke!" Li Yuanxing smiled cunningly: "Then, what do other people think!"

Li Er laughed loudly, and patted Li Yuanxing on the back vigorously: "Okay, my Goro, this plan is great. Let Brother Wei think about it carefully, and we will also pick out one or two slaves with meritorious service in this war!" "

"Brother Huang, I still think it's better to present one!" Li Yuanxing smiled wickedly.

Li Er was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood the fun, and laughed heartily.

The two brothers chatted for a while about the strategic layout and the coping plan of the aristocratic families in Chang'an City. Even Li Er couldn't think of any deficiencies in the strategy. What is missing right now is the performance of the generals before the battle and the response of the Turkic side. up.

At noon, when Li Er asked Li Yuanxing when he would send troops, Li Yuanxing's expression darkened.

"What's on your mind?" Li Er asked with concern.

"Before the expedition, I want to pay homage to a few people."

"How many people?"

Li Yuanxing looked at the sky outside the window, then lowered his head and sighed softly: "Brother Huang, these are some generals. Meng Tian, ​​who guarded outside the Great Wall during the Qin Dynasty, was said to be cruel by the world. But at the end of Qin, the world was in chaos. Que secretly ordered that the army guarding the north against the Xiongnu should not return, nor did the army guarding the south return."

"Keep the gate of the country, no matter how chaotic it is, it will still be ruled by the Han people." Li Er also agreed with Li Yuanxing's statement.

Then he asked, "What else?"

There was a trace of excitement in Li Yuanxing's expression: "Naturally, it is the great general of the Han Dynasty, Da Sima, Marquis Lie. Wei Qing!"

"Okay, I will crown him king!" Li Er admired Wei Qing.

It's not that Wei Qing is better than Huo Qubing or anything.It was because of Wei Qing's experience that he sat at the pinnacle of a great Han general as a riding slave, and his tomb was actually in the imperial mausoleum circle after his death. This is a supreme honor for a courtier and a former slave.

Especially at the beginning, the weak enemy was strong, then evenly matched, and then the Xiongnu was defeated by a strong force.

Wei Qing contributed a lot.

"Come here!" Li Er called out softly, and immediately a servant came in, and Li Er ordered: "Broadcast to Yu Shinan, Zhu Suiliang!"

Yu Shinan is now the teacher of the princes, teaching in the palace in the morning.However, Zhu Suiliang had already been assigned to the Prince Qin's Mansion by default, and his position was still waiting for Li Yuanxing to formally open the mansion, and the Ministry of Officials would post it.Recently, he also studied with his teacher Yu Shinan, as a helper, and also helped the princes and princesses practice calligraphy.

Soon, Yu Shinan went to Zhu Suiliang and arrived at Li Er's study.

Li Yuanxing was grinding ink, and Zhu Suiliang took over Li Yuanxing's work in the past.It's not because Li Yuanxing is the king of Qin, but because Zhu Suiliang doubts whether Li Yuanxing's ink can write good characters after a while. The ink is also polished carefully, and it is definitely not Li Yuanxing's kind of black and white grinding.

Li Er stood in front of the desk and pondered.

"My lord!" Yu Shinan saluted.

Li Er didn't take his eyes off the paper, and said, "I want to write two sacrificial articles, one for General Meng Tian who guarded the northern part of the Great Qin during the Qin Dynasty, and the other for General Wei Qing who beat the Huns hard. You write a letter of praise, General Wei Qing of the Han Dynasty, I want to crown him king!"

For Yu Shinan, a quaint praise can be written with a pen.

It's just that this article was requested by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and it was related to the article of praise to the heroes before the war, so we must pay attention to it.

Zhu Suiliang was asked to do other preparatory work, including mounting work and several varnish sandalwood boxes.This kind of wooden box is said to last ten thousand years even if it is soaked in water. After being sealed with paint, not even a trace of air can circulate inside.There are engravings on the sandalwood box, so it is naturally Zhu Suiliang's work.

It is said that there are four articles, one of which is an imperial decree. In fact, nine articles were written in total, and the imperial decree was given to add a box.

It didn't take long to complete these nine articles, but the follow-up work took a full two days.In addition to going to court, Li Er did everything by himself in the process of mounting, sealing and sealing the box.

At noon on the fourth day, Li Yuanxing went to the barracks once to inquire about the situation of the outfit.

Then Li Yuanxing returned to Qinwangzhuang.

At this time, Chang'an County was already under construction, and Li Yuanxing could see tens of thousands of craftsmen working on the road for an hour.I heard from the old wolf that the labor costs of the craftsmen in Chang'an City have doubled recently, and even the food has increased by one or two pennies per bucket.Not to mention the prices of wood, stone, etc.

Alongside this old road, a road five times wider is being built.

The people in Qinwangzhuang and the farmers belonging to Qinwang in Chang'an County are used here.Each skilled craftsman led ten people, starting from the crushed stone foundation, then pouring the compound soil, then pouring the lime, and then using the hard soil road on the top.

Li Yuanxing looked at it, thinking that the Tang Dynasty had road construction technology, and the difference between it and modern times is cement.

But cement is indeed impossible to manufacture in a short period of time, not to mention that I don’t know how, even if I can, without a complete industrial chain, the appearance of cement will only destroy Chang’an’s economic structure.

It seems to be getting better and better.
