Chapter 302 Who Is Such a Tyrant?

If it weren't for the fact that the main roads in Chang'an City have been repaired with smooth concrete roads, Sun Xiangfu would not have wanted his wife to go to the palace in a carriage, because the first few months of pregnancy must pay attention to safety.

Now, Chuntao and Hongmei are very attentive to Yu Xiuer, even if they are walking, they would like to carry her along. No, Yu Xiuer always held her head high when she came to Lizheng Hall, not because she didn't meet the nobles in the palace. It's just that no one dared to ask her to salute. Today, she came to visit her in-laws as a guest, and she came with a heavy gift.

When Sun Xiangfu said to send souvenirs, he would definitely not send any high-end items. Sand and soil are actually similar, but before sending them, they were fired at high temperature, polished by craftsmanship, and decorated.

For a high-end product like a full-length mirror, Yu Xiuer would definitely not bring only one side when she went to the palace. Of course, there is a more advanced gift today, which is a large ornament that eight servants would struggle to carry. The location is big, the door is wide enough to fit in.

The ornament is made up of several glass and glazed handicrafts. Sun Xiangfu used copper pipes to make a simple water pressure device. The mouth of a redtail fish in the middle of the ornament can keep spitting water, just like the one in the fresh fish shop. Aerators are the same.

The spit out water will hit a ball supported by the arched water pan, causing it to rotate in the water pan continuously.

The red-tailed fish used to be called carp in the Tang Dynasty. Sun Xiangfu asked Li Shimin to change the name. If the carp is the same as Li, this carp ornament will be famous, because the ball is nourished by the water spit out by the carp. , and brilliantly.

Of course, there is a reason for the brilliance. Sun Xiangfu installed glass mirrors around the ornaments, aiming the reflective points at the bead. The glass bead and water light will refract the light reflected by the glass mirror. Naturally, various colored lights appeared.

The large frame for these decorations is actually a large pool glued together with glass and fish glue. There are many long and beautiful fish in it. If you place it higher, people can see the inside through the transparent glass. fish are swimming.

Sun Xiangfu knew that Empress Changsun was weak and sick, so he had been thinking of ways to help her recuperate early in the morning. Watching fish swimming around in the water can make people relax and relieve boredom. These fish were salvaged by fishing boats in Xingfu Village Some of the special species brought up are very beautiful, even puffer fish, colorful and pleasing to the eye.

In the eyes of the ancients, the thing sent by Yu Xiuer is simply miraculous, but in the handicraft shops of later generations, such a set is just a cheap product worth several hundred yuan. , but directly build a large goldfish pond with fountains and running water indoors.

The craftsmen in Xingfu Village have already begun to study the commercial value of glass and glazed handicrafts. Sooner or later, these things will go to the market. It just so happened that Sun Xiangfu combined the scraps they made, sticky, and it took less than one night. In that time, this stuff was made.

Of course, good things also need a good set of advertising words. Yu Xiuer's mission in the harem today is to come up with advertising words.

"Your Majesty, this item is a treasure made by hundreds of craftsmen in Xingfu Village. It took two years to exhaust all the glazed and crystals collected from all over the world. My husband called it 'spit and feed the world'. Today, it is specially called The concubine sent it to the palace and presented it to His Majesty and Empress."

Carp spitting and feeding the world, this idea is very good. Today, Empress Changsun received Yu Xiuer, but it was very formal, and all the concubines in the harem were there. After the "spit and feed the world" was completely arranged, all the concubines exclaimed , looked at the eyes of the eldest grandson empress, suddenly a little bit of envy, the emperor just came to the harem to admire this treasure, I am afraid that he would stay with the empress for a few more nights.

"Madam Shanyang County has a heart. I like this treasure very much. I have ordered the clan's family to handle the marriage between your younger brother and Princess Linchuan according to the etiquette system. After two years, when the harem is free, I will choose a good place in the city to build a princess mansion for them."

Empress Changsun's words are very straightforward. When she and the other concubines saw "spit and nourish the world", they considered the problem from a different angle. The selling price is sky-high. Since Xingfu Village has the ability to manufacture one, it must be able to manufacture many. This truth, Li Shimin told her a long time ago, telescopes, and full-length mirrors are like this. If Sun Xiangfu hadn’t told Li Shimin, let Only when the market is out of stock can the price be kept high. Those things can already be produced in large quantities.

But now, Empress Zhangsun, who wanted to help Li Shimin share some of the financial pressure, was really short of money.

After all, Li Shimin had publicly stated before that all the expenses of the harem this year had been allocated to the common people to purchase seedlings, and the imperial court would no longer allocate money to the harem.

In fact, the income of the harem is quite rich. After Sun Xiangfu's reform, the various departments of the Pastoral Supervisory Office have been able to continuously bring income to the harem. The annual net profit is 50 yuan, which is not much more.

In addition, there are also the share of Wangjiang Tower, the share of the salted fish and bean paste workshop, and the share of the Lingnan fresh melon and fruit business. These incomes add up to a net profit of over one million yuan a year. However, it was much higher than Sun Xiangfu's income.

But why is there a shortage of money?
Because Li Shimin has a large number of secret guards, five thousand Xuanjia cavalry who are not under the control of the imperial military department, and the harem of two generations of emperors. With dozens of masters, thousands of people have to serve them. But very big.

In addition to the severe drought in Guanzhong last year, he desperately spent money to help the people, which led to the depletion of finances in the harem.

"Hehe, my husband had foreseen early on that life in the harem would be difficult, so I planned to build a glazed handicraft workshop in Weinan New City, and the output would be regarded as a betrothal gift for Princess Linchuan. After the workshop is established, The empress should send someone to take care of it, my husband said, as long as it is managed properly, it is not impossible to make millions of dollars a year."

"An industry with an annual revenue of one million can be used as a dowry gift?"

All the concubines in the harem are roaring in their hearts at this time, including Concubine Wei, the biological mother of Princess Linchuan Li Mengjiang, who has handed over the property to Empress Changsun. A few years later, when Linchuan gets married, Empress Changsun may not It was given away as Linchuan's dowry.

Hearing Yu Xiuer's words, Empress Changsun laughed, and this time she really laughed. It is difficult for a wedding of the highest standard among the people to have a dowry or dowry of more than one million yuan. Even if it is a royal princess, one hundred thousand yuan is worth it. God, the courtiers will impeach him because of the excessive cost, not to mention that Li Mengjiang is only the daughter of a concubine, and what the Sun Mansion gave is a property that can always make money, 100 million yuan a year. When Sun Deshou got married, didn't the royal family already earn 1000 million yuan?
Who is so rich?Take 1000 million yuan as a dowry gift?

The answer is of course Gongsun Zhengming of Shanyang County.

He spent the money for his own younger brother. In his opinion, even if his younger brother is a princess, he should not be looked down upon. The more money he gives, the more serious his heart will be, and the more confident he will be. The princess of Tang Dynasty, There should be a strong husband in charge.

Yu Xiu'er can't understand why Sun Xiangfu has such a mentality. Anyway, she made a very long trip to the harem today. The attitudes of the concubines in each palace are equal to each other, and all kinds of parenting scriptures are constantly taught. Give it to her, but it taught her to learn a lot.

Yu Xiu'er, who was pregnant, naturally couldn't follow Sun Xiangfu on a long-distance journey to Shanyang. Sun Xiangfu even asked her to stay in Chang'an to raise her baby until the baby was born. After three days of preparations in Xingfu Village, Sun Xiangfu took hundreds of The farm tools are no longer needed on the car side and rush to Shanyang.

Every time on the road, there will be stories, and this time is no exception. After leaving Guanzhong, watching the people along the road are still using the original farming methods for spring plowing, Sun Xiangfu feels that he still has a long way to go in the future, three years It is considered a success to make the people in Guanzhong adapt to intensive farming. In this way, after another five to eight years of study, they can almost carry out intensive farming by themselves. However, if the people in the entire Tang Dynasty are to enter into intensive farming and produce high yields, I'm afraid it will take him a lifetime to work hard.

In mid-March, Sun Xiangfu finally returned to Shanyang City, which was still covered in residual snow, and visited and expressed condolences to the families of the people and soldiers who died in the fire. In fact, Guo Po has already worked out a set of duty methods before. He just expanded the scale, and dispersed the storage area into several places, and added a secret storage area.

In addition, for the reclamation and sowing after the snow melted, tasks were also assigned, and farming knowledge was preached, starting immediately.

Considering the actual situation in Shanyang, Li Shimin sent several people to Sun Xiangfu to help, including Xiong Tingzhong, Zhang Shengye and others who had previously worked in the Fisheries Department. They all sent chief officials over. Before those cities were built, these people had to study politics with Sun Xiangfu for more than two years. Now!Of course he was Sun Xiangfu's assistant.

Knowing that Sun Xiangfu's subordinates are short of literature and military, so this time Li Shimin sent over all civil servants, and several of them are famous officials in the future. Take Chu Suiliang as an example, he is Li Shimin's important minister. There is such a person as Xu Jingzong, who was the prime minister in the Gaozong Dynasty, and he is also a firm national integration faction. His daughter is married to Feng An's son.

As for Gao Jifu, Zhang Xingcheng, Yu Wenjie, etc., they were all people who worshiped the prime minister later. Although these people's official ranks are not obvious now, they are flexible and capable in handling affairs, and they are all capable ministers of the practical faction.

Li Shimin, who knows how to use people best, naturally would not send some people who are not in the same heart with him to Shanyang to challenge Sun Xiangfu. After these people arrived in Shanyang, Sun Xiangfu's government work was relieved a lot. Gather farmers to give lectures and tell them to use the simplest and most trouble-free method to reclaim the fields.

No matter what Sun Xiangfu told everyone, Li Chunfeng would come to listen to every class anyway. Now, dozens of well-known doctors from all over the country have gathered in Shanyang. They were either born in Taoism or want to learn Sun Simiao's medical skills, in short, decided to stay in Shanyang Medical College under Li Chunfeng's flickering.

The Shanyang Medical College, which was taken care of by Sun Xiangfu and focused on construction, has gradually taken shape after a winter. The follow-up construction may take a long time, and the basic construction of the main wall courtyard and big house is completed.

Not to mention, Sun Simiao is a restless person. After the first batch of medicinal materials were transported from various places to Shanyang, he began to treat the people for free. The Han people have a little more sense of identity. It turns out that when they have typhoid fever and fever, they don’t need to ask for blessings from the gods. They just need to find a doctor, buy a few bowls of soup and medicine, and the disease will be cured. The sick Turkic people don't want to leave Shanyang even more.

Rescuing the poor is always the easiest way to win the hearts of the people. With the admission of the medical school and the benefits of free medical treatment, these people who have gradually become accustomed to living in Shanyang no longer want to go back to the grassland to live a hard life. Therefore, Sun Xiangfu During the reorganization of Shanyang household registration, the work went very smoothly.

After this year, many herdsmen will put down their sheep whips and learn to work with the Han people. More people with few cattle and sheep at home will become workers in Shanyang City, and at worst, they can also become employees of Shanyang Animal Husbandry. Workers, or accept the recruitment of many Han families to help them manage cattle, sheep, forage, etc. In short, Sun Xiangfu cannot tolerate the unemployed and idlers in Shanyang.

In about a month, the production and living arrangements of more than 120 million people were finally sorted out by the government affairs team of the Anbei Metropolitan Government, headed by Sun Xiangfu.

In mid-April, all the snow on the prairie melted, and the permafrost also melted. The agricultural tools made by various workshops in Shanyang in one winter were distributed to the people of Shanyang by Sun Xiangfu. All the young people who received the tools Zhuang, under the leadership of administrative organization staff at all levels, marched on the grassland, and the million-dollar busy farming in the northern land was finally about to kick off.
