Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 487
Using the method of pouring water into ice, Li Shimin's army entered the new city without hindrance, wiped out tens of thousands of enemies, and captured more than [-] people.

In the end, Yuan Gai Suwen escaped with only [-] to [-] loyal descendants, but now he has been overtaken by the Tang army who marched faster than him, and his last [-] to [-] descendants are constantly being eaten away by the Tang army If he wanted to escape the pursuit of the Tang army alive, he could only rely on the constant sacrifice of his direct subordinates.

At the same time, Li Shimin has asked Li Daozong, Hou Junji, Liu Hongji, Zhang Liang and others to use this method of pouring water into ice in Jishi, Jian'an, Beisha and other cities to attack the city, even if Yuangai Suwen In the end, he escaped the pursuit of Tang Jun, and he estimated that he could only retreat to Pyongyang.

The imperial court had long expected the shortage of food in Goguryeo after the war. However, it never thought that Yuangai Suwen would have no bottom line in order to win the war. Come to think of it, the situation in Jian'an, Jishi, and Beisha City, which has been besieged for half a year, will only get worse.

The grain produced in the south of the Yangtze River has been going to Laizhou for large-scale operations. The reason why Li Shimin issued an order to urge the grain is naturally because the grain in Laizhou may not be enough. After all, the reserves here are only for 30 The military rations eaten by the army, if these military rations are used to feed millions of Goguryeo people, the gap must be huge.

After Sun Xiangfu received the order, he had no choice but to fly a pigeon to send a letter to Lingnan, asking Feng An to mobilize the grain from Lingnan and Rinan County, ship it by sea, and send it directly to the mainland of Goguryeo. Talk about inviting him to tour the South after the Eastern Expedition ended.

On the Lantern Festival, Chang'an is very lively. Every year on this night, there are new songs, cross talks, and sketches in Wangjiang Tower. This year is no exception. Weinan is also lively.

Prime Minister Fang Xuanling announced that from next year, the salaries of all Weinan workers will increase by [-]% on the current basis, and the increase is mandatory. The minimum basic salary for new workers has also been set at [-] a month A hundred qian, as the length of service of workers increases, at least [-] qian will be added to their seniority wages every year.

The reason why such a regulation was introduced was because after a round of accounting and investigation by the Ministry of Commerce, it was found that the profit margins of the major factories were too large, and these ordinary workers who created benefits for the factories did not enjoy the benefits brought by the profits of the factories. To benefit, it is unreasonable.

In addition to mandating wage increases for workers, the imperial court also appealed to factory owners to give workers more holidays during the New Year holidays, as well as additional benefits other than salaries, such as smelters, for All the workers ordered a set of decent cotton winter clothes, and distributed twenty catties of rice noodles, ten catties of soybean oil, and several large bags of dried fruit and canned food to all the workers.

The advantage of the imperial court doing this is to stimulate domestic demand transactions, which will also increase fiscal revenue and improve the quality of life of workers and common people.

Such a policy will give the people a feeling that the imperial court is thinking about them, so that when they encounter problems, they are more willing to trust the imperial court and accept the imperial court's arrangements, which will benefit both the workers and the imperial court. It is a good thing, but the owners of the factory seem to have suffered damage in terms of interests, but in fact they are not. Because of the implementation of the imperial court's policy, they will make the factory's production more stable, and will also retain more capable skilled workers. Under its own banner, it has enhanced its competitiveness.

After all, many things produced in Weinan, Shanyang, Dingxiang, are also produced, and even more places will be produced in the future. After reaching a certain level, it has to rely on excellent quality to determine whose products are more popular in the market. The food in the market is open, and skilled craftsmen are the basis for improving the quality of goods. Most industrial technological innovations are born from these skilled craftsmen.

After the announcement of these news, Shanyang and Dingxiang also followed up Chang'an's policy. However, because the overall price in the North is lower than that in Guanzhong, Shanyang currently sets a minimum basic salary standard of [-] yuan , the length of service is also a policy of increasing at least [-] yuan per year. In terms of worker benefits, Shanyang has more specific regulations. On the day of traditional Han people's festivals, each factory must have a holiday, and a certain amount will be paid by the proprietor, except for wages. The amount of other money or living materials is given to the workers according to the owner's profit margin, and it is up to him to decide.

This is also a form of cultural propaganda, which will make the Hu people in Shanyang and Dingxiang get used to Han Chinese festivals, and will also increase their recognition of Han Chinese customs and traditions.

The Beidi workers who heard the good news spontaneously held a grand celebration. Therefore, this year is the most lively Lantern Festival in Shanyang and Dingxiang. The local Hu people will not run out to play because of this Han festival.

Shanyang Wangjianglou Branch, today there is a relatively grand lantern appreciation meeting. It is said that the Prince Society exhibited many exquisite glazed lanterns at the lantern festival for everyone to appreciate. Those who are invited to attend only need to guess the correct number on the glazed lanterns. Lantern riddles, you can get the glazed lantern.

This is a glazed lamp!
With Sun Xiangfu deliberately controlling the shipment volume, the value of colored glaze is still quite high. Even if it is relatively ordinary in color, it is not inferior to silver vessels. High-quality, fully transparent crystal colored glaze is even more valuable than gold and jade. It's also expensive, so even if all the people invited are high-ranking officials from Shanyang and the children of the rich and powerful, they still want to guess the lantern riddles correctly at the lantern festival and get a few glazed lanterns back for nothing.

However, when they came to the scene, they found that the glazed lamps exhibited by the prince were really good, but their attention was unconsciously placed on the prince himself who was with Wang Yao.

Because, the opening performance of the Lantern Festival was Li Chengqian and Wang Yao's chorus of "When will the water melody song head bright moon" written by Sun Xiangfu.

This kind of public occasion, the public intimacy, and the political information revealed are really too strong.

Wang Yao is the daughter of Wang Rui, the head of the Wang family. Although she is only a concubine, her status is not inferior to that of the daughters of ordinary families. The crown prince hates Hou Shuya, the daughter of Hou Junji, and this Wang Yao?
Now, both of them have reached the age of 13. According to the traditional habits of the royal family, they will almost reach the age of engagement. He blinded his own eyes in vain.

The crown princess, the future empress, the mother of a country, if it falls to the Wang family, then who can stop the Wang family whose strength is already superior to all other families?

This thing has to be messed up.

This was the first thought that popped up in the minds of the children of each family after seeing this scene. With this understanding, various strategies began to gradually form in their minds. Therefore, it is doomed this time. The Lantern Festival will not be safe.

However, Sun Xiangfu put himself in the position of a bystander and did not participate at all. He just watched how Li Chengqian would deal with these things. If he did it properly, he would use their conflicts and bad intentions to realize profits for the country. hard.

In addition, Wang Li Chengqian is used to seeing the struggles of these people, which has many advantages for him to govern in the future, at least he can easily distinguish right from wrong.

Sure enough, after the Shangyuan Festival, there was an endless stream of posts inviting Li Chengqian from various families, some offering beauties and some rare treasures. Moreover, at the banquet, he said many times that the control he received in the palace was too strict, even if he wanted to have fun, he could not act freely. The treasury of the Prince's East Palace is now the eldest grandson The queen is in control, he has no money, nothing is easy to do, and so on and so on.

Then, each family began to think of a way. They liked Li Chengqian too much, who seemed to be able to do nothing but eat, drink and have fun.

Jun Bufa, their aristocratic family is not easy to develop their own power!
Afterwards, Li Chengqian first received a round of filial piety from each of their families, and then made a surprise move, helping the Lu family and the Zheng family to deal with the Wang family's property, helping the two Li families to deal with the Cui family's property, and helping Wang and Cui's family wanted to attack the rest of the industries, and after a random blow, the situation in the shopping malls of the five surnames and seven families was as chaotic as the Seven Kingdoms. In the whole process, Li Chengqian seemed to just accept it passively. Some benefits are just random promises to help others, but a series of follow-up matters will have to be settled by each of them. In addition to Li Chengqian's own benefits, the people in the Northland will also benefit a lot, such as the spice promotion The price war has reduced the price of spices bought by ordinary people in Shanyang by [-] to [-] percent, and I will not list them all in other aspects.

The wisdom of the clan elders behind each family is unimaginable that a 13-year-old child will use such a devious and imperceptible method to help the common people do things. What he showed is that he only knows how to sing and have fun , Accept as soon as you see it, the image of a prodigal son who does things all by personal preference!

It feels so good to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger. Li Chengqian's wisdom has also grown in this kind of tempering. Sun Xiangfu doesn't need to stare at him deliberately, he can play some tricks very well by himself.

At the beginning of February, the spring plowing in Guanzhong was busy, and Sun Xiangfu handed over the many brochures he had recently compiled to Wuying'er.

"According to the requirements in this book, send your people to the local area, find the officials of the agricultural department, and allocate corresponding conditions and quantities of fields, and, according to the above transplanting method, recruit a certain number of local people, and try to grow them in the fields. These Chinese herbal medicines are originally produced in the local area, and it is not difficult to plant them. If you encounter any problems, you can ask them to write to report, and I will send someone to solve them."

"promise."

Wu Ying'er took the notebook that Sun Xiangfu gave him, but did not leave in a hurry, and reported, "Captain, let's go to Yunnan to track down Wang Hao's person. The news sent back last night shows that Wang Hao is not dead. , He deceived the people who looked downstream to find Shelong who was hunting him, and headed all the way to Tengzhou, went to Piao country, and went to Linyi country. According to the local boatman, they didn't stay in Linyi country for long, and they bought a boat and went to sea. "

"Going to sea?"

"Let Bamu and Heling people pay attention to searching along the coast. Even if he escapes to Africa, I have to catch him. If you want to see people alive, you need to see dead bodies."

A person like Wang Hao is not safe if he leaves the mainland of Datang. The piles and incidents he has worked out are all major events that lead to the war in the Tang Dynasty. Maybe he will go to that place again. Neighboring countries are lurking, and when the time comes, Datang will be confronted with so and so!
After Wu Ying'er received the order to go down, Sun Xiangfu packed up his luggage and headed for the nursery.

For simple medicinal planting, you can directly entrust the local officials of the Ministry of Agriculture to open fields for planting. For more difficult ones, you need him to lead his disciples to study in person. There are so many types and quantities of Chinese herbal medicines. He has been busy until the spring snow in Shanyang melts. During this time, his board and lodging will be in the nursery.
