Datang first village

Li Yuanxing has never sealed off North America, nor Central America, only some fiefdoms in South America. .

Why is there no North America? Is that continent a barren land?

The aristocratic families, dignitaries, and dukes didn't understand. They made countless guesses, but when the truth was announced, it was so unexpected.

Qin Wang Li Yuanxing is not in Chang'an, but who can say that the influence of His Highness Qin Wang will weaken.

A personal letter from King Qin of the Tang Dynasty was reproduced in the original editions of several major newspapers in Chang'an, a survivor of the Yin and Shang Dynasties!

The Goguryeo people first expressed their displeasure with this letter.

Because the Goguryeo people believed that they also came from the Central Plains to Liaodong, why these barbaric Maya people could become the honored guests of the Tang Dynasty, but their Goguryeo people could not.

There are countless restaurants and teahouses in Chang'an City, and many people are arguing about this.

The people of Goguryeo were very excited, and many rich Goguryeo businessmen paid a lot of bills in restaurants and teahouses to treat guests.Just so that others can listen to their remarks, it is nothing more than wanting to get more treatment.Or give more quotas for goods, or allow Goguryeo people to buy real steamships.

But in any case, the Goguryeo people believed that they and the authentic Datang people were originally of the same root.

"It seems very interesting!" Li Jing sipped the fine wine paid for by the Goguryeo people, ate the big red prawns shipped from Nanyang, and watched the Goguryeo people jumping up and down with great interest.

"What do Wei Gong think?" Hou Junji stood beside him and helped Li Jing pour the wine.

Wang Jishan blocked Hou Junji with his hand, and then picked up the wine bottle to help Li Jing pour the wine: "This cup is to be respected by the old man. Hou Shang Shurong, the old man has a question first!"

"Please!" Hou Junji smiled and made a gesture of invitation.

Cui Junsu poured the wine bottle for Hou Junji, and nodded with a smile.

"Duke Wei, what is His Royal Highness King Qin thinking?" Before Wang Jishan asked, he signaled the ordinary attendants to leave.

Li Jing didn't answer immediately, but cut up the big red shrimp, divided the meat into several portions, and after using the serving chopsticks to hold a portion for each person, he put down the chopsticks with a serious expression on his face.

Everyone didn't rush, just waited silently.

"Taste this delicacy first. This big red prawn weighs a pound. It is extremely delicious. Listen to Sun Shenxian, this food is a great tonic!" Cui Junsu invited everyone to eat first.

Li Jing put a piece in his mouth, savored the taste, and suddenly had an expression of enlightenment.

"I have a question in my mind. Whether it is flying in the sky, running on the ground, or swimming in the sea. Even the pearl Goro can be raised in a circle. Can't this thing be raised? Goguryeo and Japanese people are for this big red Shrimp can be said to be incompatible with fire and water. The Australian side only needs to let the Ministry of War draw out the sea area and let the two sides enter the water in their respective areas."

"This is a plan to kill three scholars with two peaches!" Cui Junsu took out a scroll from his arms.

"What is it?" No one opened it to look, but asked curiously.

"Big red prawns are the way to raise them. There is the most suitable breeding area in Melbourne. It's just that a certain person is not ready to move in a hurry. A certain person is waiting for the Nanyang people to start attacking the Japanese and Goguryeo people. The place where the sea catches, the Nanyang people I also want to stick to it. Seven nobles in Palembang pooled [-] catties of gold just to let my Cui family support their fleet. Give them some goods!"

At this moment, Li Jing finally brought the topic back to the point.

"The Mayans, there are about 400 million people there. How huge is this population? From north to south, that continent is almost as large as ten Central Plains. How many soldiers can the Tang Dynasty have to occupy all these places and divide them into feudal states? What's the use of it. The end result is like an ant gnawing on an elephant, which won't eat much."

Hou Junji also hurriedly said: "The Tang Dynasty has no more soldiers."

Datang has no soldiers?

Under the questioning, Hou Junji did not answer, but turned his attention to Li Jing.

Li Jing said with a smile: "The current population of the Tang Dynasty is about 800 million people. Excluding the uneducated children and the old and disabled. The population is only 15 million people over the age of 45 and under the age of 100. Then the 700 people removed In ten thousand, there are five million children."

In Datang, anyone who can live past 45 years old and still be healthy is considered an old man.

"Also, women who attend childbirth account for another 200 million. In addition to the old women who have to take care of them, Datang lost another 400 million people. Next, there will be less than 800 million young and strong people."

800 million sounds like a lot.

But Li Jing continued to calculate: "The current farmland of the Tang Dynasty is divided according to the 800 million people. On average, each person has to cultivate 47 mu of land. The ratio of officials to the population of the Tang Dynasty is 40 to 400. That is to say, the officials of the Tang Dynasty There are almost 500 people. The rule given by the Ministry of Industry is that Datang now needs at least 120 million craftsmen. The statistics given by Sinong Temple are that Datang needs no less than 20 million farmers. The rule given by the Ministry of War is The total number of standing soldiers and guards in the Tang Dynasty cannot be less than [-] million. The Ministry of Railways said that for the safety of the railway, they need [-] people..."

Li Jing is talking about goals and plans.

Counting three and two counts, the young and strong that Datang will need next year alone will need more than 2000 million people.

Otherwise, because of population issues.Datang's agriculture, industry, transportation, etc... .will be greatly affected.

Finally, Li Jing said one last sentence: "It seems that the treasure of America is not gold, silver and jade, but people!"

"With a population of 400 million, if there is no war for ten years, the population will triple!" Wang Jishan replied next to him.

Cui Junsu said: "If Datang guarantees the birth rate for ten years, then the total population will reach more than 6000 million. In 30 years for Datang, the population will exceed [-] million, and more than half will be young and strong."

"Look! Within three months, Wulang must have a unique move, and each family should save more money." Li Jing made a concluding speech.

What is the strange move? These four are all people who represent different identities in the Tang Dynasty, and they can't figure out what it is?But some of their entourages came to report: "A reward from the Holy Spirit, which is said to be extremely precious red rosewood. Some have been delivered to the home, and the carpenter at home believes that this wood is worthless!"

Gold does not change!

Whether the wood is good or not, the carpenters know how deep it is when they touch it.

This reward, it can be said that everyone of the top nobles of the Tang Dynasty has a share, but the number is limited, but it is only the amount of materials that can be used to make a set of desks, and it is definitely not enough to make a wardrobe.

At Wang Jishan's house, not only Li Jing, Hou Junji and others came together, but also many dignitaries of the Tang Dynasty came after hearing the news.

A few boards are first opened, polished and polished.The carpenters stepped aside respectfully.

"It's better than Nanyang rosewood, more than twice as good. Someone doesn't know sandalwood!" Li Jing stepped back a few steps to get out of the way.

Nobles naturally have the bearing of nobles. After several overthrows, a celebrity appraised a few pieces of wood and said: "According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, these timbers have been strictly ordered to be felled in the Tang Dynasty, and violators will be punished with serious crimes." After finishing speaking, he turned to Longxi An old man from the Li family: "Old Li, what does your Li family say?"

"His Royal Highness Prince Qin is in charge, what does our Li family say?"

The celebrity said again: "I know that King Qin is going here, and the one-way journey from Luzon will take a month, and the two-month round-trip time is not too long."

Everyone nodded and agreed with this statement!

"It's more than three months, and it's only been three months since King Qin sent the boat back. His Highness has two thousand elites around him, but even if the seaside is full of trees like this, I'm afraid it's impossible to get rid of them in such a long period of time." On the other side of Nanyang, the trees were cut down, transported to the port, and loaded on the [-]-ton ship. It took three months just to prepare the goods. It is impossible for the forest to be full of thick trees. I can't figure out anything."

"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it!" A voice floated from a distance.

Everyone hurriedly turned around to salute.

Because the owner of this voice is the Tang Emperor Li Er.

"One by one, I know how to make more money. If you have the time to waste your brain, why don't you just ask Wu Lang directly." Li Er smiled heartily.

People in Datang don't have slave surnames, and they can't help but speak.

What's more, there is nothing disrespectful about what you just said.

After everyone heard Li Er speak and salute according to the rules, the celebrity still dared to say with a smile: "Even if the Holy One is wise, I'm afraid I can't figure it out this time!"

"I don't understand why. The Mayans took away [-] to [-] slaves, and [-] soldiers. Goro didn't know how to use these people. He didn't dare to open gold mines, and he didn't move if he had jade, crystal, or emerald. I can cut down some trees and pull them back as gifts for you, you bastards, how dare you arrange Goro behind your back!"

"Your Majesty joked, how dare you have such a heart!"

Everyone burst into laughter.

Li Er's face suddenly became very serious: "The Mayans should not be underestimated. At first I thought they were just some natives. But their ability in mathematics, in the past half month, it seems that the Hongwen Museum has been unable to bear it. With the more advanced arithmetic theory taught by Goro, I am afraid that it will be defeated in a few days at most."

"Really so powerful?" Cui Junsu couldn't believe it.

He is the secretary of the household department, and Datang has made great progress in statistics, accounting, and engineering mechanics in recent years.

Is it still defeated?

Li Er sighed: "Tianshi Yuan has already failed in astronomy. Although each has its own merits, the calendar, astronomy, astrology, etc. calculated by the Maya, Wulang is not in Chang'an!"

Li Er's words are very obvious, if Li Yuanxing is there, there will be a comparison.

But only Datang's current research on astronomy has fallen.

"Then, what about astronomical phenomena and positions?" An official asked anxiously.

"Originally, the Mayans had never seen a sextant, but this thing fell into their hands. In just one day, their calculations have surpassed that of the astronomical position masters trained by Datang for half a year. This is enough to prove that their foundation is good. Like martial arts masters communicating with each other, learning moves, but getting better at it!"

The officials are not sad, but happy!It seems that Datang's artisan gap can be filled. . )
