Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 407
When Sun Xiangfu returned to his resting room, he met Yu Xiuer's interrogating eyes.

"Well, Xiu'er, since you were pregnant, we haven't shared the same bed for more than a year. Although this place is a bit rough today..."

Hearing this, Yu Xiu'er turned her beautiful eyes, and interrupted him in a seductive tone, "Husband, do you want to sleep on my concubine's bed?"

"Uh, this, I want to, of course I want to..."

"Then please tell me what I said about Your Majesty today, so that I can record it for future generations..."

Sure enough, Yu Xiu'er still didn't let go of this matter, even bringing out the matter of the long-lost fish and water sex, it didn't distract her in the slightest.

"Xiu'er, can we stop doing this? It really doesn't make any sense."

"It seems that the husband doesn't want to go to the concubine's bed anymore."

Yu Xiu'er sat down on the edge of the bed, turned her face away from looking at Sun Xiangfu, meaning that if you don't tell me today, you won't be able to sleep on this bed.

Sun Xiangfu covered his forehead and said in his heart, "Brother has been busy for several years since passing through, and it seems that he is about to become famous and enjoy the blessings of everyone. Why did this happen again?" '

They are planning how to persuade Yu Xiu'er!He suddenly thought of Li Shimin's indecision during the discussion just now, and the fact that many ministers had different opinions, so he immediately took it to heart and said softly, "Don't be really angry, Xiu'er, I'm just teasing you for my husband! Hurry up and go to bed for my husband, so that I can tell you about today's events."

Hearing this, Yu Xiu'er turned her head and looked at Sun Xiangfu with a surprised face. She thought that he would resist for a while before completely accepting her arrangement, but she didn't expect to give in so easily. It seems that she still underestimated her own beauty. The lethality of sex to her husband.

Soon, under Yu Xiuer's service, Sun Xiangfu took off his coat, got into the bed, put his arms around his wife, and said in a low voice, "My husband will play for His Majesty first today, and set up an art troupe under the Tai Le Division of the Ministry of Rites. His Majesty agrees in his heart, and the ministers have no opinion. After all, the songs we released can make people feel patriotic and yearn for the future life, which is helpful for the court to stabilize people's hearts.

But later, when my husband suggested that His Majesty use women as officials in the art troupe and the Imperial Hospital that will soon be rolled out across the country, His Majesty hesitated, and the ministers also expressed concerns about women as officials, so this matter was temporarily shelved. . "

"Husband, do you suggest that the imperial court use women as officials?"

Even though Sun Xiangfu was talking, his hands had started to be dishonest, Yu Xiu'er didn't realize it, and eagerly spoke to confirm.

"Uh, yes! When I was in Shanyang, my husband had such an idea. You should know that after managing local government affairs, my husband has always been more concerned about people's livelihood issues. In Tang Dynasty, whether it is the North, or In the Central Plains, the number of registered young men is far less than that of women.

However, there are too many places in this society where men are needed. Farming needs, war needs, being an official, working, being a merchant, and even all occupations that require traveling outside are more suitable for men than women. There was a great shortage of men in the Tang Dynasty. Most of the women, because they couldn’t find a job to do, only competed with each other in a limited industry. The income was not high. Han women could do weaving and needlework, and herdsmen women could only make fur , Feeding livestock, milking, and the huge population are all spent on this little industry, which is very wasteful.

Just like this Weinan construction site, if the female workers can also do some things within their capabilities, the number of workers here will be more than 50, and it will be more than doubled. The more people, the whole progress will be faster. in this way.

But it is very difficult to change the tradition of men farming and women weaving. What I thought of for my husband was to gradually change some occupations. At first, in Wangjiang Tower, I used a large number of waitresses for my husband. In this regard, due to The rich and powerful basically use their maids to do some of these jobs. Everyone takes it for granted, and it can be considered that we have saved a lot of men who went around to do services for Datang.

Then, we built chicken farms, fish farms, pig farms, handicraft production, etc., all of which used a large number of female workers, so that the industries we can relate to digested a lot of female workers who were not needed, and made the entire production Out increased a lot.

However, it is not enough to do these things, because it does not solve the situation of not enough males, so, next, I think of medical treatment for my husband.

In fact, women's sense of touch and smell are more sensitive than men's, and their hearts are more careful. It is more suitable for women to be doctors than men. In this industry, a large number of women can be used in the increasingly developed medical industry in the future. , Save a lot of men for our Datang.

Finally, it’s about the art troupe. Women have many learning advantages in singing, dancing and musical instruments. It’s not that women are necessarily better at learning than men. It’s just that this social structure has led to women having more time to learn. Research, men, should focus more on making a living, or other things that require men to do.

Therefore, for the sake of my husband, I went to your majesty to use women as officials in the imperial medical office and art troupe, so that women can enter these two industries in large numbers. "

When Sun Xiangfu finished speaking, Yu Xiu'er was stunned for a long time before she opened her mouth and said, "My husband's thinking is really different from ordinary people. Now, I believe in Li Daochang's words even more."

"Uh, why are you bringing this matter up again? My husband told you this because I want to ask you for help."

"What's the matter?"

"No, Your Majesty is hesitant, and the ministers are still quite vocal about it. Your husband needs you to do work for the empress and the ministers' wives. This matter may not be impossible."

"What's your husband's plan?"

"Think about it! The empress is the mother of the world. If women are the main force in some professions, won't she have a great say in this profession?"

"That's it."

"For example, the art troupe I want to talk about needs to use women as officials. We in Tang Dynasty have singing, dancing and musical instrument performance skills, and their status is suitable for female officials. What kind of groups are there?"

Yu Xiu'er thought about it, and replied, "The daughter of an official and powerful person."

"Of course."

Sun Xiangfu guided her step by step, and immediately led Yu Xiuer's thinking to this path. The daughter of ordinary people is destined to work in weaving and washing workshops. Where is the condition to learn singing and dancing skills? Those who can play musical instruments are usually women born in aristocratic families like Yu Xiu'er before she got married.

That is to say, even if the art troupe is established, those who can serve as female officials in it are actually these people at first. Sun Xiangfu doesn't believe that the officials in the court don't want their daughters to have an official aura.

And when the status and status of the people who make up this group are not easily provoked by anyone, things like Yu Shinan's worries do not exist.

Sun Xiangfu is also using a roundabout method to facilitate this matter, let it be established first, and then slowly evolve. Therefore, the couple sat on the bed and perfected the whole plan to promote women to become officials .

The next day, the condolences and inspection continued. Du Zhenglun and Ma Zhou led the emperor and ministers to see the entire planning and development map of Weinan, which was re-improved by Ma Zhou after Sun Xiangfu's guidance.

Li Shimin and the ministers had an intuitive understanding of this city without city walls that would expand infinitely in the future after reading the newly completed version of the blueprint.

After the preliminary completion, Weinan will fully meet the production and living needs of a million-level population. There will be dozens of residential areas interspersed among the various factories. The residential areas will have vegetable markets, restaurants, inns, and shops that are open all day long Hospitals, Public Security Departments, etc. serving the common people.

If there is demand in the country or the market, this city will be a city that never sleeps, that is to say, it has the ability to maintain production at twelve hours a day.

The super-large wharf along the Weihe River and more than a dozen concrete roads leading to all directions in Guanzhong make it very convenient for the distribution of goods. After all kinds of raw materials are pulled here from all over the world, they can be quickly turned into commodities.

According to the expected construction progress, next year, some of the more important factories will be able to open for business, and the year after, most of the factories will be implemented. Opened, initially forming a large-scale cluster.

That is to say, plus this year that has already passed, this new industrial city will take four years of construction before it can be said to be initially formed, and as for the future of this industrial-based city, no one can see the end.

"In the future, it will be the top priority of my Datang's development. As long as it is operating normally, then Datang will be invincible in the world."

Ma Zhou quoted Sun Xiangfu's bold words when he first made the Weinan New City plan as his concluding remarks.

The ministers he spoke to were full of enthusiasm. From the tip of the iceberg of coal and smelters, they saw the sharpness of the city after it developed. Not to mention, on the drawings, hundreds of factories were all in operation. After the scene.

The future of the Tang Dynasty can be expected, which is the consensus reached by the courtiers. With this good consensus, it is much easier for Li Shimin to do things. Congratulations, let alone with so many power boosts.

Therefore, after discussing some future management work in Weinan, when the sympathy performance started at night, Li Shimin was very excited and booed with many ministers, asking Sun Xiangfu to perform singing and dancing on stage, and the monarch and ministers had fun together.

Today happened to be a special performance for the shipyard and the wood factory. Sun Xiangfu came on stage and sang a song "Everyone rowed to open a big boat" that the musicians had arranged before but would be sung by Zhang Abao, which won unanimous praise from everyone. Praise him for his singing skills as before.

However, the ministers in the court cannot stay on the construction site all the time. After the condolence performance that night, Li Shimin made a plan to return to Chang'an the next day, because another matter needs to be done by the ministers. The more than [-] Goguryeo captives escorted over are about to arrive, and the court must do a good job of resettlement. In this regard, Li Shimin once again appointed the eldest Sun Wuji and Sun Xiangfu to take charge. It is the rhythm that is not afraid to exhaust him to death.
