The Tang Dynasty Started from the Great Governor to the Emperor

　　"Anyway, I'm really convinced by His Royal Highness the King of Shu. Even if he asks me to go up the mountain and go down to the sea of ​​fire, I won't blink! Without him, the people in our village would starve to death!"

　　These village chiefs were all whispering. Although they were a little nervous when they met a high-ranking official like Li Ke for the first time, they were not afraid.

　　Because they know that His Royal Highness the King of Shu is a good person and will not harm them!

　　Finally, Li Ke walked in at this time.

　　As soon as these village chiefs saw Li Ke, they immediately bowed to Li Ke subconsciously and said, "The grass people pay their respects to His Highness!"

　　"Meet Master Qingtian!"

　　"Master Xie Qingtian upheld justice for us. Those soldiers went to kneel down and apologize to us last night, and they returned all the things they robbed!"

　　These people's words were not the same, but Li Ke could hear them clearly.

　　In particular, some people said that if the soldier went to apologize last night, the smile on his face was even more.

　　Because he knew that Yijun had already changed under the rule of Xue Rengui!

　　He lifted his hands up, and everyone felt a surge of energy suddenly appear, and then they were like this, as if they were being lifted up by a pair of invisible hands.

　　This made all of them extremely shocked, looking at Li Ke with the same expression as looking at an immortal.

　　Li Ke looked at everyone with a smile, and said, "This king invited the village chiefs to come here today to discuss a business with you, a business that will make you rich!"

　　……

　　Ask for flowers and very good evaluation votes!

Chapter [-] Lost business?

　　Chapter [-] Lost business?

　　"Business?"

　　When the village chiefs from various villages heard the words, they couldn't help but be astonished.

　　Before they came, they had thought that the Grand Governor would talk to them about various things, but they did not expect that the Grand Governor would discuss business with them.

　　These poor people who have nothing, have any capital to negotiate business with the governor?

　　They all looked at Li Ke with doubts in their hearts.

　　And Li Ke didn't delay. He looked around at everyone and said slowly, "In your fields, are you still planting tea trees?"

　　When the village chiefs heard this, their faces turned gloomy.

　　Only the sound of long and short sighs kept ringing.

　　Some of them looked bitter, some were angry, and some were at a loss.

　　"Hey, yes, it's all to blame for that dog officer Yang member, if it wasn't for him, how could we be so miserable!"

　　"Yeah! If it weren't for him, the fields must be full of crops now!"

　　"Many people in our village have empty rice tanks."

　　"Our village is the same. The money has been exploited by those dog officials, and the food is gone. This winter, it is estimated that we will eat the bark to survive!"

　　"If you plant food, you will only be able to plant it next year. The final harvest will be in autumn, and there is still more than a year left. How can you live!"

　　"It's dead!"

　　These village chiefs are all frowning, their faces are full of worry.

　　In ancient times, the village chiefs were jointly elected by the whole village. They had no real power and mainly worked for everyone's welfare. Therefore, these people were recognized as the most virtuous people in the whole village.

　　So when they think of their village, it is very likely that many people will starve to death in the future, and they will look bitter and full of worry, but there is nothing to do.

　　Moans and sighs, long and short sighs, kept coming out of their mouths.

　　Seeing this, Li Ke shook his head slightly in his heart. If he didn't have himself, maybe... from this winter to next fall, countless people would really starve to death.

　　At that time, Yizhou will definitely become a real hell on earth.

　　But these people are still lucky, because... Li Ke is here!

　　When faced with this kind of problem, others may have no solution, but to Li Ke, this is nothing at all.

　　He looked at the village chiefs with a smile on his face, and suddenly said: "If this king can help you solve this problem, not only give you money, but also give you enough food?"

　　"what!?"

　　The village chiefs were still frowning and sighing, but suddenly, they seemed to hear a voice saying that they would give them money and food, which made them subconsciously stunned at first.

　　Then after thinking about the taste in his mind, he raised his head sharply.

　　Everyone looked at Li Ke instantly, their eyes full of hope and fiery.

　　"Your Highness, you...you...what did you just say?"

　　"Give...give us money."

　　"There's still enough food!?"

　　"This...is this true?"

　　The voices of these village chiefs were trembling. They opened their eyes, and their eyes were full of tension and fear. They were afraid that they had just heard hallucinations, and they were afraid that it was all their own hallucinations.

　　Li Ke greeted everyone's nervous and hopeful eyes, nodded with a smile, and said, "You heard right, this king said that he will give you money and enough food to ensure that all of you will not be hungry. , and the family will have surplus food and live a prosperous life!"

　　"This...is this true?"

　　"Thank you, Your Highness, Your Highness is really a living Bodhisattva who saves suffering!"

　　"Thank you, Your Highness Ron!"

　　"His Royal Highness is really the Great Master Qingtian!"

　　These village chiefs said with red eyes, and then saw that they all bowed down to Li Ke, everyone's faces were full of gratitude and excitement, and everyone thanked Li Ke from the bottom of their hearts.

　　Seeing this, Li Ke said quickly: "What are you doing, please get up quickly, you are all subjects under the jurisdiction of this king, if this king is not good to you, who can be good to you, and this king also said at the beginning Now, this is a business, this king gives you these things, and you still need you to do things for this king!"

　　But when these village chiefs heard Li Ke's words, they didn't get up at all. They looked at Li Ke gratefully and said, "If your Highness has any orders, just say it directly, and our whole village will do our best to do it for His Highness!"

　　"Yes, if His Highness can give us enough food, it has already saved countless lives. If there is no His Highness, even if we exchange our lives for food, we will not be able to exchange it!"

　　"His Royal Highness cares about us and gives us food. This is already a great kindness. As for what His Highness asks us to do, His Highness can say it directly. Even if we go to the mountain of swords and the sea of ​​​​fire, we will definitely do it!"

　　Hearing this, Li Ke couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "What is going on in a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire, you are all the people of this king, and this king is reluctant to let you do those things."

　　"Alright then, this king will say it straight!"

　　Li Ke looked at these village chiefs and said, "This king hopes that you can pull up all the tea trees in your fields, and then plant the seeds that this king gave you, and take good care of them, just like you planted crops before. When the crops are mature, help this king to harvest it!"

　　"Then, this king will give you every village, every household... [-] taels of silver and [-] catties of grain as a reward! But all of this can only be done after the autumn harvest! I wonder if you can trust this king?"

　　When Li Ke's words fell, he thought he would get instant support from the village chiefs.

　　But who knows, what is waiting is quiet, quiet, strange quiet.

　　None of these village chiefs responded to them.

　　This made Li Ke feel a little embarrassed. He wondered if he paid too little?

　　Quite a lot!Now an ordinary family in Datang can earn [-] to [-] taels a year, which is pretty good, not to mention [-] catties of grain, which is enough for them to eat for a year!

　　It can't be compared with those big families, but compared to the Yizhou people who have problems with eating now, it is simply a great thing!

　　Why do they still hesitate?

　　"Your Highness!"

　　At this time, he heard a village chief suddenly blushing, his eyes were red, and his eyes burst with tears, and said: "Today, the little people know that His Highness really loves our people, for our people, His Highness really is The Bodhisattva who saves the suffering, the little people... the little people have nothing in return, and only hope that they can be cattle and horses for His Highness in the next life!"

　　"..."

　　Li Ke was stunned for a while, what the hell, why are you crying!

　　"His Royal Highness, we all know that the farming season is over now, but His Highness is still willing to let us engage in farming and mulberry, knowing that there will be no harvest, but willing to give us such a generous reward, His Highness's good intentions, we all Know!"

　　"From now on, His Highness is the living Bodhisattva we worship. If anyone dares to speak ill of His Highness, we will break their legs!"

　　"In the future, His Highness will let us go east, we will never go west!"

　　"Your Highness, don't dare to forget!"

　　Everyone was kowtowing and grateful. Everyone's eyes were red, and they looked at Li Ke with respect and love.

　　Li Ke now wonders if he will let them die, will they blink!

　　But after listening to their words, Li Ke also understood.

　　It turned out that they thought that if they planted grain now, there would definitely be no harvest, and they asked them to do so in order to let them receive those rewards with peace of mind.

　　So in their view, this is definitely a loss to the extreme!

　　But why do you still do it?

　　Isn't it just for these people?

　　Li Ke smiled and shook his head, these people really think wrong, they will do things that lose money?of course not!

　　However, he would not say these things.

　　Since these people misunderstood, then misunderstood!

　　The so-called Dazhi means the people's whole-hearted respect and love for the ruler. With their love, it would be difficult for Yizhou not to become its own kingdom!

　　Besides... Li Ke also needs their respect and love to gain prestige!

　　After all, his plan can finally be fully implemented now, and before it can be implemented, he still needs to exchange his reputation for something...

Chapter [-] Coal mines are discovered, and reconstruction is on the agenda!

　　Chapter [-] Coal mines are discovered, and reconstruction is on the agenda!

　　Li Ke discussed the specific action plan and time with these village chiefs, and then let these village chiefs leave, let them go back to the village first, tell the good news to the villagers, and then start taking action.

　　After sending these village chiefs away, Li Ke finally breathed a sigh of relief.

　　He didn't expect that one of his plans would actually kill two birds with one stone!

　　It not only makes the people more convinced and loves themselves, but also makes all their plans have a solid foundation!
