Chapter 345: Building Bridges and Paving Roads (Part 3)

When the people from all over the country saw what the imperial court had done for them, they were grateful to Dade for letting them do whatever they wanted, and when the chickens, ducks, cattle, sheep, and horses they raised in the coming year were transported back to the customs from all over the country and returned to the imperial court, and they all became rich in a few years.

Who would have thought that having money is also a troublesome thing, and now Datang is too rich, and the people who manage the treasury and grab grain are worried.

Seeing that the autumn harvest was coming again, they didn't know if the little emperor had a good fate, since he ascended the throne, he built water conservancy and dug rivers in various places, but there was no major famine, even if there were a few small ones, they were quickly solved.

Seeing that there is more and more food, it is a matter of time before it becomes moldy.

Most of these people are people left over from the previous household department, and they are all good at taking inventory and making careful calculations.

Thinking that they used to worry about wars, disaster relief, saving silver, and seconding silver; Now they have to worry about the mold of the grain in the granary. Thinking about their work makes them feel aggrieved, can't they be made less worried?

They were afraid of wasting a grain of grain, so they reported it to the imperial court without a way.

The eldest princess of Huanji does not allow anyone to waste a grain of food, and even the emperor has to go down every once in a while to feel the hardships of the people.

This matter has to start with the thirteen princes, the thirteen princes and the emperor are not much different, but because the emperor is with Huanji, he is very sensible.

The son of the Empress Dowager Xian became the emperor, and he was in charge of the shrunken harem, and he was very idle, so he focused on the remaining three little princes.

Huan Ji felt that Empress Dowager Xian's education method was very good, and she was willing to let her take care of the other princes.

Who would have thought that the Empress Dowager Xian took great care of several little princes, and the three little princes were very sensible, but occasionally they would be used to playing temper, children.

Once the thirteenth prince was scolded by Mr. for not eating well after going back, and accidentally knocked over his rice bowl

The Thirteen Princes were unhappy, and Mr. thought that the Thirteen Princes were rude to talk back to him, so he went to Huan Ji to complain.

Mr. said that the Thirteen Princes had a lot of wonderful ideas of Mo Min, and he also explained them. Huan Ji was very interested in this, so he went to the Thirteen Princes, but it happened that Huan Ji pretended that he had knocked over the rice bowl, and a bowl of rice was buckled on the ground.

Huan Ji didn't say anything, but he didn't go up and slap the thirteenth prince like last time, but went directly and carried him to the back garden, so that he could personally open a piece of land one zhang wide.

The thirteenth prince was stubborn, said nothing, and cried and shouted: "I didn't mean it, and I didn't do anything wrong." ”

Huan Ji didn't care about him, and directly asked people to get the golden whip.

After the emperor found out, he found several other princes to come over to persuade him, and even the eighth prince who was writing in the Buddhist hall was called over.

When they arrived, Huan Ji was talking to the Thirteen Princes: "This whip was given to me by your father's grandfather, whether it is you or your father, even if it is your grandfather, I will draw it." If you don't finish this today as I say, you won't have to eat or sleep. ”

Seeing this, the emperor hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Erchen has always heard that there is a golden whip in my aunt's grandmother's hand, and I have always seen it, and it is also a creation to be able to witness it today." ”

The fourteenth prince hurriedly echoed: "That's it, that's it." ”

In the end, it was the emperor and several underage princes who opened up the land together.

After Huan Ji left, the thirteen princes also said: "Grandmother is really terrifying, thirteen have worked hard. ”

The emperor was really speechless, he felt that his aunt and grandmother were very good, and people inside and outside the palace liked her very much.

And the Independent Commission Against Corruption in Qingzhou is still cleaning up corrupt officials.

Nowadays, those who are thoroughly found to be corrupt will not all have their homes raided.

During the emperor's reign, only those who embezzled will be raided; If the first emperor is corrupt during his reign, he will be punished according to the seriousness of the corruption. Normally, all you need to do is return the embezzled money and grain, so the treasury is still increasing its revenue. In addition to the new policies in the past few years, all adults have to pay various taxes. Every year, the state treasury adds several large new warehouses.

The construction of Datang is being carried out in an orderly manner, and now the teaching and medical care in various places have begun to be implemented.

For the people, although the taxes paid today are more than in previous years, they don't need money to see a doctor now; After the child is three years old, he does not have to eat, drink, and bind his or her belly at home; In addition, the harvest is good every year, even if more is handed in, there is much more surplus grain left every year than in previous years.

The people are honest, and everyone who has food and drink is willing.

For those places where the harvest is not good, the imperial court has not collected taxes once, and not only did some areas not collect them, but the imperial court also issued disaster relief grain payments.

In this way, the people feel that even a disaster year is not so difficult.

The cabinet members looked at the money and grain in the treasury now, and their eyes widened one by one, is Datang already so rich? Now has each of them figured out where to go with all this money?

Some proposed to use troops to expand the territory of the surrounding countries, and some proposed to use the money and grain to give the surrounding countries to submit or attach themselves to the Tang Dynasty.

Huan Ji thought for a long time before saying: "Now that the interior of Datang has not been built, let's leave others alone, let's clean up the snow in front of the door." ”

Xue Dongwei asked: "Now that the Tang Dynasty is prosperous, the funds that should be allocated have been allocated, and even the money for the construction of the embankment of the Yellow River waterway in the next ten years has been prepared in advance. ”

The officials nodded when they heard this, it's all like this, where is the snow to be swept away.

Huan Ji said: "Then build bridges and pave roads, hasn't the Grand Canal of the Sui Dynasty been dug yet?" I went to find the drawings of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty before, and continued to excavate after modification. There are also various places in the interior where transportation is not convenient, whether to open mountains or build bridges, as long as the situation allows, it will be put on the agenda in advance. ”

Everyone discussed, "This is great, if all the canals are dug up, the next southern tour is estimated to save half of the time." ”

Huan Ji thought about it and said: "Tell the people below that now that life is better, you don't want merit but no fault." If anyone dares to lie about the truth for the sake of merit and do those things that cost the people and money, don't blame me for destroying his whole family. ”

The officials hurriedly said, "Don't dare, don't dare." I thought to myself that I had to warn the people below when I went back.

Now that prices are cheap, and their salaries are more than double that before the reforms, what else is there to toss. If you want fame, just boil it slowly.

After the meeting, Huan Ji took the emperor to another place, where Huan Ji formed a new team, all of which were young students.

Huan Ji wants them to go abroad for further study, and it is absolutely impossible to close off the country, especially foreign scientific research and technology, Huan Ji especially wants a four-wheeled car and an airplane flying in the sky at the moment.

Huan Ji thought about what she had written to the Qingzhou officials before, asking them to study the engine, but she didn't know the principle of the engine, and after a long letter, the Qingzhou officials didn't understand what she was talking about. (To be continued.) )
