Datang: What's wrong with my fief being a billion points larger?

Chapter 239: The complicated relationship, the war in Japan is over

In the early morning, Li Yuanji sat in a rocking chair, yawning from time to time. He looked listless, as if he was awake but his soul had not yet awakened.

Li Yuanji was also helpless about this. He had fought consecutive battles last night and had to change battlefields in the middle, which made him very tired.

Yang Qingwan was unusually proactive, perhaps out of guilt, and launched wave after wave of attacks. The enemy troops in front were defeated by Li Yuanji, but Yang Qingwan started a protracted war with Li Yuanji.

After tossing and turning for half a night, it was finally over. Then Yang Qingwan pushed him out of the room and told him to go to Wei Gui.

Then there was another big battle, which made Li Yuanji extremely tired.

Although he was physically tired, Li Yuanji was somewhat happy in his heart. At least his backyard was not leaking, and Wei Gui did not get involved in the affairs of Yang and Wei. That was a good thing.

After lying down for a while, Li Yuanji began to complete today's daily task, which was just one hundred push-ups. For Li Yuanji, it was very simple.

After some warm-up, Li Yuanji's energy and spirit finally recovered a little, and his soul was basically awakened.

"It's another pleasant day. Five contribution points have been credited to my account~"

Li Yuanji stretched lazily, rubbed his shoulders casually, and turned back and forth.

Then Li Yuanji started to open the system. Now his contribution points have reached 645 points. Looking at these contribution points, Li Yuanji is full of helplessness.

In his view, these contribution points are just like the money from his previous life. They are always so scarce. The salary is so little and the consumption is so high. After buying the basic necessities and looking at the balance, he has to start looking forward to the next month's salary.

Now, with this contribution point, Li Yuanji can always feel that there is some similarity, similar, really too similar.

"If I don't exchange for those technologies and just maintain the current development, my contribution points will probably be too much for me to squander, right?"

Li Yuanji shook his head and stopped thinking about it. There were actually quite a few cheap things that could be exchanged for contribution points, but with development and progress, in order to develop, they could only exchange for better things, which caused the exchange price to soar.

Think about how many contribution points were needed to redeem the most basic ones? Only a few thousand.

However, look at the present, the exchange of some process technologies has increased from thousands to tens of thousands, and now has reached hundreds of thousands.

It's absolutely terrifying.

Li Yuanji stopped thinking about it, looked at the system for a while, and then closed it. This task has not been completed yet, and the 100,000 contribution points are just for show and not for consumption.

"I'm afraid this mission will take about two months to complete. If Liu Rengui's navy is here, it should be faster."

Li Yuanji was helpless. Although there were enough people migrating from the Tang Dynasty, it would take time to migrate to Haikang. In addition, the main route was sea, and there were not enough large ships. The navy's ships were also in short supply, so the speed was even slower.

After exiting the system, Li Yuanji immediately called Yang Jianhe.

"Go call Cen Wenben. I have something important to discuss with him."

After Yang Jianhe left, Li Yuanji came to the front hall and Cen Wenben arrived soon.

"My king, what is the matter?"

The first thing Cen Benwen did after arriving was to ask Li Yuanji a lot of questions. He was really very busy now, and Li Yuanji knew it, and he kept calling him frequently. It was impossible for Cen Benwen not to be angry.

Seeing Cen Wenben looking like a wronged young wife, Li Yuanji suddenly laughed.

"Jingren, I asked you to come here this time for a good thing. It's definitely a great thing for you, and you're still like this."

Li Yuanji looked at Cen Wenben's face full of suspicion and still looked unconvinced, and the corner of his mouth twitched suddenly.

Because Li Yuanji likes to paint rosy pictures for people all day long. To be precise, it's not called painting rosy pictures, it's called pumping up the blood. There's nothing he can do about it, because most of the people here have multiple jobs, and sometimes if he doesn't encourage these people, they will lose their passion.

Li Yuanji then continued: "Your expression makes it seem like I am lying to you. First of all, as for the talents, I have already found people for you from Nanzhou Prefecture, Luzhou Prefecture, and Songzhou Prefecture, but they have not arrived yet. They are Wu Shiling and Wu Shiyi.

When they arrive, you can make arrangements directly. This can be regarded as solving part of your staff shortage problem."

Hearing this, Cen Wenben finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Li Yuanji would assign him some new tasks. This was the case in the past when he added burdens to him, saying it was a good thing and giving him power, as if he was very happy.

Cen Wenben now has no desire for these powers. He wishes some people could share them with him.

Cen Wenben smiled immediately.

"Thank you for your consideration, Your Majesty. However, just the two of them is not enough. Your Majesty, do you still have someone else to arrange for? Just go ahead and arrange it."

Cen Wenben looked at Li Yuanji encouragingly. He hoped that Li Yuanji would appoint people based on personal connections. As long as they had a little talent, it would be fine. Once Li Yuanji had made the arrangements, he wouldn't have to worry about this troublesome matter.

Li Yuanji was speechless and said helplessly: "I need someone, do I need you to tell me?"

The two stared at each other for a while. Li Yuanji looked at Cen Wenben's expression and immediately understood. Cen Wenben's face was full of doubts: Just this? Two people? Is this a good thing?

Li Yuanji rubbed his forehead and continued, "In addition to the two of them, there are two more, Wei Ting and Wang Gui. Wei Ting is now in Japan. I have ordered him to return after the war in Japan is over.

As for Wang Gui, I have sent someone to pick him up. When he arrives, he will help you. With the help of the two of them, is that all right?"

After hearing this, Cen Wenben suddenly smiled brightly.

"Your Majesty, it is settled, I am really too busy here.

Your Majesty, you don't know that when I went to see Kong Yingda yesterday, I also learned about the academy system and the imperial examination system. I was also very eager, and then Kong Yingda pulled me to improve it together, and I couldn't bear to refuse.

Now I have to take time out every day to go to his place to sort it out. I fully agree with both the academy and the imperial examination, and hope that they can be started as soon as possible. Next, I will select a place to build an academy.

There are so many things on my hands, and I really feel a little overwhelmed. "

Cen Wenben complained to Li Yuanji, and Li Yuanji listened quietly. He knew the pressure Cen Wenben was under. Not only was his entire fiefdom under pressure, but even if the Tang Dynasty was included, Cen Wenben could be said to be the busiest person.

This is why Li Yuanji sometimes dared not to provoke Cen Wenben. Once this fellow quit, all the affairs would be piled on his head. Li Yuanji felt his scalp tingling when he thought about so many things. After Cen Wenben talked for a while, Li Yuanji spoke again.

"Jingren, I see how hard you've worked. Don't worry, when Wei Ting and Wang Gui arrive, you'll be able to relax a little.

Moreover, you all know about the academy and the imperial examination. I have been devoting all my efforts to the cultivation of talents. No matter how hard I work, as long as talents are cultivated, things will definitely get better and better.

In addition, I can tell you another piece of news. The Yang family and the Wei family have already decided to move here. The people who moved in advance have already set off and will arrive in a while."

Cen Wenben, who was originally quite relaxed, gradually became serious after hearing the last part.

"Your Majesty, the relocation of the Yang and Wei families here is of great significance, but Your Majesty, how should we deal with this matter now? Or should we keep it as it is?"

Li Yuanji knew what Cen Wenben was talking about and smiled immediately.

"How to deal with it? Of course we should continue. Now that Yang and Wei have arrived, it's just right to find out who is involved and punish them all.

As for whether Yang and Wei will have any objections, I will tell them in person at that time. If they really have objections, they have to keep it to themselves.

In my territory, no matter who comes, they must follow the rules here, and no one can make the slightest exception! "

Li Yuanji was well aware of the significance of the migration of the Yang and Wei families. It could be said that once the Yang and Wei families set this precedent, more aristocratic families would inevitably migrate here in the future.

After all, here, judging from the current situation, what the family can earn here is far more than what they can earn in the Tang Dynasty. Even those families that are split up will have people coming here.

Money can move people's hearts, this is not just talk.

Moreover, the arrival of Yang and Wei will have a significant impact on Li Er. After all, Li Er has just come to power, and forcing two big families to move south is not a good thing.

Looking at Cen Wenben, Li Yuanji solemnly continued: "But don't be too happy. Although the Yang and Wei families will come, it is impossible for them to be the whole family. It should be just a few brothers and sisters. In the future, these two families should survive in the form of separate families.

By then, the Yang family and the Wei family in the north and south may develop to the level of those families."

Li Yuanji now is not so ignorant. He is very clear about the operation of the Yang and Wei families. He never thought about the migration of the entire clan, how many people are there in the clan?

Not to mention that not everyone is willing to come, Li Er will definitely not allow an entire large family to move to his place. Li Er still has to keep his face.

The people coming from the two clans this time must be those who are close to him. There should be more people coming from the Wei clan than from the Yang clan, not for any other reason, but because Wei Gui occupies one clan, and there are Wei Ting and Wei Yunqi, which make up two more clans.

Among the people from the Yang family, those from Yang Qingwan's family will definitely come, and then there will be the family of Wei Yuancheng's wife, which is also the family where Yang Shidao is, the Guanwang family.

Moreover, the people from this family must come, if for no other reason than that Yang Shidao now has a close relationship with him.

Yang Shidao's wife, Yang, was the daughter of Li Yuan, Li Yuan's fifth daughter, the elder sister of Li Yuanji, and also the elder sister of Li Er.

But in addition to this, this intricate relationship also involves Wu Shigui.

After Wu Shigui's original wife Xiangli died, he married a woman named Yang, who was from the Hongnong Yang clan. Wu Shigui's current wife, Yang, is the daughter of Yang Da, the uncle of Yang Shidao.

The reason for this was that Wu Shigui's marriage was arranged by matchmaker for Li Yuan, and wife Yang Shidao, also known as Princess Changguang, was the matchmaker.

Now Wu Shun and Wu Mei are in his palace again. If Yang wants to come, Wu Shigui will definitely persuade Yang Shidao's family to come together. In addition, because of their various connections with him, Li Yuanji will almost certainly let this family come as well.

Whenever Li Yuanji thought about this, he felt a headache. This was the network of relationships of the aristocratic families. Why, even if some families were very wealthy and had high-ranking officials in the court, they could not be called aristocratic families? It was because of the connection.

Look at these big families. Their networks are even more complicated than a spider web. How many people are involved in just one family? How many interpersonal relationships are there?
Li Yuanji stopped thinking about it. Thinking too much would only give him a headache. Anyway, after these people arrived, they would just follow his rules.

After listening to this, Cen Wenben had an idea in his mind. There are good and bad people from noble families, and the key lies in how to use them.

Cen Wenben still looked serious as he looked at Li Yuanji.

"Your Majesty, if people from the two tribes come, how should we employ them?"

Li Yuanji smiled after hearing this and said: "Use them as you should, and do everything impartially. Don't worry that too many people from the Yang and Wei families will enter various places and affect us.

I can tell you that as long as I am here, these people can't cause any trouble. If they want to change the world, they are still a little naive. By then, I don't mind showing the world what genocide means!

You don’t have to bear any burdens, and you don’t need to think too much. Just continue as you did in the past even if they come.”

He is short of people now. With the arrival of Yang and Wei, even if he will punish some of them, many of them will inevitably enter his official system. If too many people enter at the same time, it will easily undermine his power.

Li Yuanji could understand Cen Wenben's concern, but relying solely on the people from the two clans and a few branches was not enough. If the entire Yang and Wei clans came, he would really need to be vigilant. His foundation was not as good as that of the Tang Dynasty, and he really would not be able to digest it.

But now, he has no such worries at all.

Cen Wenben agreed immediately. He also wanted to remind Li Yuanji. Now that Li Yuanji knew it clearly, he didn't want to say too much.

Just then, Yang Jianhe hurried in.

"Your Majesty, military news has arrived from Japan!"

Li Yuanji was shocked and stood up immediately. He took the military newspaper and began to read it. After finishing it, Li Yuanji burst into laughter.

"Haha! Great! Wei Ting is worthy of being a cavalry general. He still has this skill. Su Dingfang and the others also fought well!"

Li Yuanji laughed for a while, then looked at Cen Wenben, who had a curious and nervous look on his face.

"Jingren, the war with Japan is over, we won, and it was a great victory!

Of Li Ji's 50,000 troops, only more than 10,000 people escaped in the end. The only pity was that Li Ji escaped and Cheng Yaojin did not stay. However, Zhang Gongjin was captured by Dingfang because he was the last one to leave.

This battle was a complete victory!"
