In fact, it would definitely not be a trivial matter to be able to get the patriarch of a big family like the Lu family with a history of hundreds of years to come forward.

In fact, it's not a trivial matter.

When Dao Ling raised his head from the letter, his face could not be described as gloomy at all.

"Is this true?"

Dao Kui nodded and said, "Yes." The letters sent from various places, Yanzhou, Yanzhou, Yangzhou, and Changzhou, because of the deliberate targeting of the imperial court, have been unable to get salt and fertilizer. And in the Jiangnan area, because of the deliberate care of the Lin family, I can still get a little bit more or less, but it is still a drop in the bucket. What's more, now that the imperial court is keeping an eye on the Lin family, I'm afraid that the Lin family won't last long. ”

These places are also places where the power of the family is intertwined and the control of the imperial court is relatively weak.

With the letter firmly in his hand, Daokui walked slowly around the room.

Seeing this, Yan Pianqi also said: "If the imperial court only stuck salt fertilizer, it would not be a problem. I'm afraid that the court will make other moves. ”

This is also true.

Since ancient times, around the word power, there has never been a lack of blood, and even Tang Taizong killed his own brother and his younger brother to climb the throne. Tang Taizong not only killed his own brothers of his mother, but also killed several of his nephews, and even killed the historians one after another, asking the historians to whitewash and speak well for him.

Maybe it is recorded in the history books that Tang Taizong was a Ming monarch, and maybe Tang Taizong did work hard for more than ten years during his reign.

However, under the circumstances of the time. Tang Taizong is a bastard, a bastard who is not even as good as Yang Guang. He not only relied on killing his cousin's brother to ascend to power, but also forced his father. Even in the second year of his reign, tens of thousands of Han slaves were sent to the Turks to keep his throne. If it weren't for the fact that Tang Taizong Li Shimin later used a military attack on the Turks and completely subdued the Turks, I am afraid that his reputation would be worse than Shi Jingjiao, let alone Wang Jingwei.

But Rao is Tang Taizong's performance was very good in the middle period, but. Under the social ethics of the time, he still did not get a high evaluation.

Especially those families, they originally supported Li Jiancheng (Li Jiancheng's wife Zheng Guanyin was born in the Xingyang Zheng family of the five surnames and seven wangs). In addition, Tang Taizong's behavior at that time could be said to be Yang Guang's second, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the two sides are incompatible.

Tang Taizong could use death and corpses to force historians to pour dirty water on Li Jiancheng's grave, not to mention these Shandong families who originally supported Li Jiancheng? In their hearts, they decided that Li Shimin was Yang Guang's second, how did the Shandong family look down on Li Shimin?

To know. Originally, although the Li Shimin brothers did not agree. However, the Li Tang Dynasty at that time was recognized by the Shandong family through Li Jiancheng's marriage, including the five surnames and seven wangs, and Li Jiancheng was extremely talented and paid a lot in internal affairs, so the Li Tang Dynasty at that time still had the spare strength to expand to the grassland after unifying the world. However, after the Xuanwumen Change, Li Tang no longer had the ability to aspire to expansion, and he no longer had the ability to resist foreign enemies. In the early years of Zhenguan, Li Shimin was approached by Turkic soldiers. And more than once.

If Li Shimin could insist and not compromise with the Turks, then the Shandong families would still look up to him, but in fact, Li Shimin compromised, and he sent tens of thousands of Han slaves to the barbarians in exchange for "peace". Since then, the Shandong family has closed the door to Li Shimin and his descendants.

Later, Li Zhiluo's behavior of abolishing his original partner Wang and Empress Wang made it even more difficult for the Shandong family and the Li Tang royal family to turn around.

Even Tang Taizong Li Shimin's words could not be transmitted out of Chang'an for a while, and even Li Zhi and Wu Zetian later moved the capital to Luoyang, which only allowed the royal family to breathe a sigh of relief from the sphere of influence of the Guanzhong Gate Valve, and their words still could not be conveyed to the east of Taihang Mountain.

The Li Tang Dynasty began with Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, and the internal fighting continued, and a large amount of national wealth was consumed in this internal fighting.

It can be said that Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, set an extremely bad example. Moreover, the Li Tang Dynasty was also the first dynasty in history to have a treacherous appearance, and it was also influenced by Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

It can also be said that since Tang Taizong Li Shimin ascended the throne, the family has been under tremendous pressure from the royal family. Although Daomen is a little better, because of the relationship between the family and Daomen, although the Li Tang royal family is extremely polite to Daomen because of their surname, the pursuit of Buddhism in the Li Tang royal family and the use of Buddhism to suppress Daomen cannot be concealed from those who have a heart.

Whether it is a family or a door, they are never afraid of challenges. If there is no such spirit, it will be impossible for the family to maintain the inheritance of China under the rule of foreign races for 300 years from the end of the Western Jin Dynasty.

What will make the Lu family and other families unable to sit still is that the imperial court knows little about salt and fertilizer. If the imperial court sets a trap for the family, the family will have to survive with a broken tail. What really made the family unacceptable was that the imperial court deliberately used salt fertilizer incorrectly. That would only have one consequence, and that would be the damage to the land.

What China depends on for its survival is the land. If the land is damaged, it's definitely not a small problem. That's a big problem for future generations.

It's no wonder that the Lu family was so anxious that they jumped to their feet, and Dao Ling also looked gloomy.

Looking at Dao Ling's expression, Dao Kui couldn't help but speak: "Dao Ling, the stakes are very high, why don't you call Tong Yunliu and ask, how about it?" ”

The order stopped.

To be honest, he didn't want to end his tight grip on Jia Jiu just like that. However, if the land of the world is almost destroyed, it will be too late to do anything at that time.

After a moment of silence, Dao Ling finally backed down.

"That's it, let the clouds flow. I have something to ask him. ”

When Jia Jiu came, he saw such a scene.

Dao Ling sat in the center, with a gloomy face, obviously in a very bad mood. Dao Kui and the national teacher sat beside Dao Ling one left and one right, and their faces were very unsightly, and even Uncle Yan Pianqi put away his hippie smile in the past, and stood against the pillar with his sword.

After Jia Jiu saluted, Dao Ling handed over the letter in his hand and said, "Tongyunliu." Look at this. ”

Jia Jiu read it three or two times, and said, "May I ask what Ling commands?" ”

Dao Ling frowned and said, "For the matter of salt and fertilizer." Don't you have anything to say? ”

Jia Jiu was silent for a while, and said, "Then it depends on which step the Daomen wants to take." ”

Dao Ling: "What do you mean? ”

Jia Jiu replied: "Actually, if it is just about the method of farming, in fact, the effect of salt fertilizer is very small. The disciples also have a set of ecological farming methods in their hands, which can also increase the fertility of the land, and they do not have to worry about the salinization of the land and the harm to future generations. ”

Dao Kui opened his eyes suddenly and said, "That." Then you still throw out so much money every year......"

Jia Jiu replied, "Yes." The original purpose of the disciples was not salt and fertilizer at all, but the unification of the world. ”

The world is unified.

These four words came out. Even Dao Ling narrowed his eyes and stared at Jia Jiu fiercely, "Let's talk a little more detailed." ”

Jia Jiu replied: "Salt and fertilizer are just a disguise. In other words, in this whole process, salt fertilizer is just a by-product of by-products. What really makes the disciples pay attention. Not this one. Sea salt can be used to extract hydrochloric acid, which can be processed into sulfuric acid. There are hundreds of processes that can be derived from this, and the most important one is the improvement of the smelting process. Whether it's a sword, a bow, or armor, you can use it. Similarly, if this smelting process is used well, it can also make large ships. Not only can it resist the enemy thousands of miles away, but it can even be used to expand the territory. If. If you go one step further, you can even build a flying machine. Used to fight against the Shattered Island Xuange. ”

"What?" Hearing that he could fight against the Shattered Island Xuange, Dao Ling couldn't sit still: "What you said is true?" Can you really fight against the Broken Island Xuange? ”

Jia Jiu replied, "Yes." In fact, this whole set of processes, at the beginning, was not designed to deal with broken islands. ”

Yan Pian said curiously: "It's not to deal with Broken Island, but to deal with whom?" ”

Dao Ling suddenly said: "It's for the Daomen, is that so?" ”

Jia Jiu nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Yan Pian was taken aback: "You want to target Daomen?!" ”

Jia Jiu replied, "Yes." ”

Daokui's face also fell: "Do you know what you're talking about? ”

"The disciple knows."

Dao Ling: "Why? ”

"Because the Dao Gate is an obstacle to the unification of the world."

Dao Ling said: "If you still have this idea, you should continue to keep it a secret. Even if this seat asks you, you won't say half a word. ”

Jia Jiu replied, "Yes." The disciple originally thought that although Banzai was not a Ming monarch like Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, the other party's strength was not bad. But the fact is that the disciple overestimated the present long live. Or rather, it would be too dangerous to put this whole set in the hands of a king who had no reins around his neck. ”

When Dao Kui heard this, he was really relieved.

Although Dao Ling's face was still gloomy, his face was obviously much better than Fang Cai, not as gloomy as Fang Cai.

"You can know the disadvantages of Qiangang's arbitrariness, and it is not in vain that Ling Bozi taught you. However," the Dao Ling changed his words, "Do you know that the Dao Sect is kind to you?" ”

"Yes. The Taoist Sect is not only kind to the disciples, but also to the families of the disciples. ”

"Then why are you still targeting Daomen?"

"Because the imperial court is constrained by the Daomen. And the disciples are first Daqi people, and then they are Daomen disciples. Jia Jiu replied calmly, "The disciple once put the responsibility for the failure of the decree to be implemented on the heads of the Daomen and the family. But seeing the people of the imperial court floating in things, and seeing the corrupt officials around him, the disciples realized that there are various reasons why the imperial court's decrees cannot be implemented, and they cannot be generalized. Although the Daomen and the family hindered the implementation of the imperial decrees, they also ensured the interests of the common people in other places. For the same thing, there is light and shadow. There are no absolutes. ”

When Dao Kui heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course, Dao Kui would not be angry because Jia Jiu had wanted to target Daomen. In his opinion, Jia Jiu was still young after all, only twenty years old, and he was even younger when Jia Jiu set the plan. In Daokui's opinion, with Jia Jiu's age, it is forgivable to make a wrong judgment because of his lack of experience, especially on the premise that Daomen has not suffered losses.

Dao Lingdao: "So do you have any countermeasures against this salt fertilizer?" ”

Jia Jiu replied: "If the disciple is not wrong, the imperial court will definitely use salt and fertilizer as a bargaining chip to achieve a balance between inside and outside." So, we just need to push the boat with the flow. Whether it is the Jin Kingdom in the west or the Song Kingdom in the south, if they want salt and fertilizer, then it doesn't matter if they give them all the salt and fertilizer. We can promote safer and more harmless ecological farming. ”

Dao Ling frowned and said, "Do you know what you're talking about? ”

Jia Jiu replied, "The disciple knows. If salt and fertilizer are not used illegally, it will cause land pollution, and the reduction of grain production and land consolidation are trivial matters. If this salt fertilizer does not enter the human body, it will also cause damage to the internal organs, such as kidney pain, blood in the urine, and a complete waste person. It's just that the disciple is a Great Qi person, as long as it is a means to weaken the enemy, the disciple will never be stingy. ”

Dao Ling: "Do you know what you're talking about? ”

Jia Jiu said: "The disciple knows. The disciple is very clear about his own character, and it is already extremely polite to use the unsheathed sword to describe the disciple, and the disciple feels that the disciple is more suitable for the four words of the unsheathed sword. ”

"The unsheathed sword is the murder weapon of murder weapons. If you can't return to the sheath, you can only be a second-rate swordsman. ”

"The disciple knows."

Dao Ling stared at Jia Jiu and said, "When did you change your mind?" ”

"Does it matter?"

Dao Ling said: "I want to know." ”

Jia Jiu said: "When Princess Changle asked her disciple to ask for Zhuangzi, when the disciple knew that Banzai had specially set up a yamen to manage salt and fertilizer, and when the disciple knew which officials reached out to salt and fertilizer with Banzai's acquiescence. ”

Dao Ling said: "The last question, salt and fertilizer are your hard work. Wouldn't you feel distressed if you put it on the shelf? ”

Jia Jiu replied: "The disciple once thought that if he had the ability, he would definitely be able to change an era and make himself famous in history. Later, the disciple understood that in this world, there is chance and necessity. The disciple may really have some ability, and the disciple may also be a little clever. However, the disciple does not have this ability, so that the whole world will follow the disciple to cross the inevitable. There are some things that cannot be crossed and cannot be escaped, but can only be faced. ”

Dao Ling was silent for a moment and said, "This seat wants ecological farming methods." ”

Jia Jiu said: "The relevant notes are in the pillow of the disciple's bedroom. In addition, there are two small Zhuangzi in the mother's dowry, and one disciple and one brother. These two Zhuangzi used ecological farming methods. ”

Dao Ling nodded and said, "You should repent of the rock first." ”

"Yes."

Jia Jiu bowed and retreated.

As soon as Jia Jiu left, Dao Ling didn't wait for the old man to get the pillow in Jia Jiu's bedroom, but went directly to Jia Jiu's small courtyard by himself.

Dao Kui and the others also hurriedly followed. (To be continued.) )
