Zhizhang Datang

Chapter 450 Unwilling to be Lonely
In his new position, Lin Sen is quite comfortable in his job, and the work is almost the same. Most of the time, he just needs to arrange the work.

While paying attention to managing his subordinates, he also deliberately opened the distance between him and the soldiers.

On the one hand, his position is here, and he needs to have this style; on the other hand, it is also to prevent the left prison guard from becoming his own mountain, let alone the entire team become his own private army. More time is still Use it to accompany your family.

Li Chengqian probably really got Li Shimin's orders. On some important matters, he would call Lin Sen into the palace from time to time to ask Lin Sen's opinion alone.

However, Lin Sen knew exactly how much money he had, and he never interfered with political affairs, so he mostly stated bluntly that he was really not good at it.

After doing this several times, Li Chengqian stopped asking, but apparently his closeness to Lin Sen returned to the way it was before.

It seems that he is also very satisfied with Lin Sen's approach of knowing how to advance and retreat, and knowing how to measure. After all, he is an emperor, and he certainly doesn't want to have an old man by his side, just pointing fingers when he has nothing to do.

Of course, there must be some opinions from the ministers under him, but the final decision should still be made by himself.

With the good foundation left by Li Shimin, as long as Li Chengqian is not too capable of causing disasters, it should be fine to be a successful king.

But obviously he is not satisfied with just being a qualified successor, but also wants to make some achievements of his own.

Fortunately, he did not act in a hurry, nor did he become an irresponsible three-beat party. Instead, he was very safe and wanted to improve people's livelihood first.

The so-called three fires for a new official to take office, he, the new emperor, must also be burned once he takes office.

The first fire was on farming, which can be regarded as one of the fundamental affairs of the country.

In addition to introducing a series of policies to encourage people to open up wasteland and farm land, efforts are also being made to curb land mergers.

Especially those Buddhist temples that have had bad deeds before are still the focus of supervision, but anyone who has hidden households, hidden fields, or private monks will be severely punished.

More importantly, he took out all the plants that Lin Sen had experimented with over the years and could guarantee a high yield.

Li Shimin had been keeping the potatoes and sweet potatoes that he planned to use as the killer's trump card at the critical moment, and they all showed up this time.

In fact, the high-yielding reputation of these things has long been rumored in the market. Even if they have been planted in Huangzhuang, it is impossible not to reveal any news.

What's more, Li Shimin also intended to make a name for these things, so that when he really took them out later, everyone would treat them as treasures, not a burden that was rigidly apportioned.

Because there are too many rumors, and the more important thing is that people in the Huangzhuang testify, they have seen and heard it with their own eyes, so people have been longing for this thing for a long time.

At present, most of the ones that can be seen on the market are those that the emperor bestowed on the nobles of various families, but they have received unanimous praise. They are delicious and delicious.

With so many nobles helping word of mouth, ordinary people are eager to see through this thing.

A similar situation also applies to several other high-yielding crops that Lin Sen has planted successively over the years, such as yams with the highest yield per mu reaching nearly [-] jin, and pumpkins, which are also good things that are both vegetables and food.

In addition to this, it is the super rice that is now widely spread in the south and has almost become the most important food crop.

Nowadays, rice is often seen in the north, mainly due to the great strengthening of north-south exchanges over the years.

After Li Chengqian announced that the cultivation of these things would be fully liberalized, the farmers who heard the letter were almost ecstatic.The flow of people buying all kinds of seeds should not be too turbulent.

Moreover, Li Chengqian also clearly stipulated that the local governments only recommend that you plant these things, but they cannot forcefully promote these things, and you must give everyone the opportunity to choose freely.

In fact, although the weather in the Tang Dynasty has been rare in recent years, and you can often hear news of a bumper harvest, but this bumper harvest is only compared to the original poor output. In fact, the number of people who can support the output is still relatively limited.

Especially in many remote or barren places, because of insufficient fertility, insufficiently developed planting technology and other reasons, the harvested food is simply poor, and many people are still in a situation where they are hungry and full.

This is obviously very unfavorable to the growth of Datang's population and national power.

With these crops, things are different. For things like potatoes and sweet potatoes, even in barren mountainous land, even if it is only extensively managed, the yield is still considerable.

It is not impossible to grow ten or eight times higher than the original grains. This is definitely a qualitative leap.

Not to mention things like yams, they have to grow well in sandy land, and the ones that grow out of them are delicious. Really good land is not suitable for it.

This has an immediate effect on improving land utilization rate and output rate.

Not to mention these new crops, Li Chengqian also organized an activity similar to sending technology to the countryside under Lin Sen's suggestion, so that all places can find good ways to grow grain, and go down to teach farmers with poor yields how to plant technology.

Of course, these people have to be rewarded, and it doesn't necessarily have to be money. It is entirely possible to give some preferential policies in terms of rent and adjustment.

This will benefit them for a long time. Only when they teach can they work harder and be more sincere.

There is no way, now people want to cover up some technology at hand, for fear of being easily learned by others.

The technology of farming is even more related to the life of a family. If you want to take it out at will, it is not so easy.

If you want to see it on weekdays, at least you have to ask a master to do it, and no one will do it widely.

But with an official organization and corresponding policy support, it will be much easier to implement this matter.

Whether it is contributing technology or learning, have there been real benefits?

There is no need to worry that local officials will not take this matter seriously, because how well this matter is done will also be included in their assessment.There is also whether the local food production has increased, which is an important indicator to measure.

After all, this is the same as population growth, and it has always been the top priority in evaluating local officials, so there is no need to be afraid of them stealing and cheating.

With just such a combination of punches, Li Chengqian immediately gained great prestige among the people.

This has really changed everyone's life, and everyone no longer has to go hungry year after year. How can we not miss Li Chengqian, the new emperor.

For a while, the number of Li Chengqian's ancestral halls increased, and the people in many places enthusiastically joined in the praise of Li Chengqian.

With a large number of farmers stabilized, at least the people at the bottom of the country will be stable, and Li Chengqian's ruling foundation will not have to worry about being shaken.

Ordinary people are always easy to be satisfied. On the contrary, it takes longer to get in touch with officials and dignitaries, and prestige cannot be established in a short time.

Especially since Li Chengqian's Lao Tzu has done so well, so outstanding that most emperors have to look up to him. Under the shadow of this kind of emperor-level Mingjun, Li Chengqian wants to make some achievements. Such an easy thing.
