Chapter 457 Chapter 450
Hundreds of years of foundation, what a magnificent family of the Hongnong Yang family, they also once owned the current status of the five surnames and Qiwang.

The old Yang family of the fifth generation and the third prince at the end of the Han Dynasty, the founding royal family of the Sui Dynasty.

The mainstay of the wealthy family was completely destroyed by you, Emperor Sui Yang.

Su Xi is not interested in the love and hatred of the Yang family. The current Yang family is indeed weak.

After staying with Yang Shidao for a few days, everyone set off again.

After passing Shuofang, their speed was much faster, and the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty was truly displayed, with spacious straight roads.

After entering the territory of the Tang Dynasty, I felt a different kind of prosperity.

Especially in Shuofang, the manager of Shuofang at this time was a close friend of Li Er's. Su Xi didn't know him well, but in Li Ji's words, he was definitely a close friend of Li Er's.

Shuofang has become a heavy industrial city, with huge steel furnaces producing huge amounts of thick smoke.

This reminded Su Xi of a story. The earliest Japanese visited the British. When they arrived in London, they saw that the sky above London was full of smoke, and the whole sky was black. It's all scary.

But the Japanese showed a look of envy, they said it was a sign of wealth and power.

This represented an inexhaustible and inexhaustible supply of steel for the British, and they could produce huge amounts of it every day.

This is the case in Shuofang now. The city where blast furnace ironmaking was first identified has a lot of good-quality iron ore in the area.

The existence of detonators and explosives is absolutely necessary equipment for mining.

With these two things, the difficulty of mining will plummet.

After crossing Shuofang and entering Huazhou, what Su Xi saw again was a more prosperous Tang Dynasty. Large villages were built on the side of the road, and not far from the villages were small processing factories one after another.

Looking at the teams of local village soldiers patrolling the villages, as well as the children running and jumping, especially the smoke in the evening, makes people feel more prosperous.

Here you can see farms from time to time, and occasionally some grazing cattle and sheep.

Radishes and cabbage have been planted in some roadside fields.

Although radish and cabbage is not a good dish, it can be called a prosperous age in ancient times if the common people can eat it every meal.

Radish and cabbage, potatoes, corn and sweet potatoes can all be counted as five dishes.

A family that can store five dishes at home, the standard of living in Datang is now the standard of ordinary people.

Su Xi feels that the current Datang is already very good.

Basically, the disaster year was eliminated. According to the statistics of Datang last year, every household in Datang now has surplus food, and a large amount of vegetables are also stored in the cellar.

Oil also entered every household.

During the stay in the village, Su Xi and Li Ji wandered around. There were bacon and air-dried meat on the beams of every household.

Each village also successfully owns a supply and marketing cooperative.

The supply and marketing cooperative cannot guarantee that the goods will be delivered every day, but it is still possible to deliver goods once a week.

It looks long, but it's been a long time here.

Now the best-selling wine in Datang is wine, because all kinds of explosive crops are used to make wine, and the price of wine has been reduced to an extremely low level, but that is the case, selling wine every year in Datang can support several industrial chains , Datang can collect a lot of taxes.

Tobacco is a restricted item in Datang, and it can be supplied, but the supply is small, and it is not recommended for people to smoke wildly.

Prices are also generally a bit more expensive.

Su Xi felt very good.

However, Li Er successfully supported his Imperial Guard every year by relying on tobacco.

This is more ironic.

Not far from Huazhou, Su Xi saw many places where mountains were built and roads were built.

The local supervisor opened up the mountains crazily, and some hills blasted a way directly towards them.

Those majestic mountains have also built roads.

In a word, road construction is everyone's main job, and road construction should be done if there is nothing to do.

They even repaired roads to every household.

Some small carts that were only available in later generations were also invented.

As long as there is a need, it can be developed.

All kinds of simple and not too complicated tools have been invented.

Along the way, Su Xi truly witnessed the current prosperity of Datang.

The main thing is that the atmosphere is good, the atmosphere is quite good.

Su Xi saw the local officials give lectures in person, and they taught mathematics in the fields.

The reason is that someone asked for advice.

There was a farmer who always felt that the knife and plow he used were not smooth, and that the distance was a problem.

And local officials who have some insights into mathematics hurried over to explain the principles to him.

For no other reason, I just want to learn from you, so I have to explain it to you.

Ordinary people are willing to learn, and I don't want to learn your knowledge about being an official. I just want to learn how to make my life better.

Su Xi also saw that in a small processing factory, an employee was rewarded by the boss for improving a certain process of the assembly line.

Because he improved efficiency, he saved another labor force for the boss.

The saved labor force never worries about losing their jobs, which is not the case in other factories.

During this process, Su Xi saw a very cruel elimination.

This is really an era when the government is only responsible for you to eat and drink enough and not become a lazy person. You need to work hard for other advancements.

Some people find problems and improve them and become new managers and superiors. Some people can't, and they don't want to learn and improve, so they can only become the targets of relief from the government.

You may not be unemployed or starve to death, but you will never be rich.

This is a cruel situation. Su Xi guessed that if it weren't for the fact that there were so few people in Datang and they hadn't reached their peak state, there might be people who needed poverty alleviation due to infinite elimination.

But that's it, Su Xi guessed that in less than ten years, there will be people who need poverty alleviation.

Some people are really lazy.

There is no way not to make progress.

Therefore, after seeing the inside through the surface, Su Xi felt that the eternal peace that Li Er needed was really too difficult.

It's just that because there are few people now, people can be moved out, and it can also be taken into account that once the growth rate of the population exceeds the growth rate of the economy, Su Xi can foresee that many people will not have jobs.

Very tragic scene.

It's because you don't work hard that you have a bad life, and there are not many reasons.

Now it can really be said that it is an era with the same starting point. After this era, the starting point will not be the same.

The children of those factory leaders and the children of employees can start from the same place.

The children of researchers can do the same as your normal working children.

If you don't work hard in this era, the span in the future will become bigger and bigger.

"Terrible and cruel times."

Su Xi stood on the side of the road, looking at the people who had changed their clothes not far away, she couldn't help sighing.

I will post two chapters today. I am tired. On the last day, I want to take a rest.
