Although Li Yuan did not provoke the family, he also borrowed many methods from Yang Tong, such as Juntian to promote it in Shangluo County.

Because Shangluo County used to be the territory of the cannibal demon king Zhu Cang. Zhu Cang was happy to eat people up and down, and the people were used as food wherever the army went, resulting in Shangluo's white bones in the wilderness and the extinction of the population.

Although Zhu Cang went to Nanyang for Li Xiaogong, there is no one in Shangluo County today, and because of this, the land of the whole county has become official land and official land.

It can be said that Li Yuan is completely enthusiastic about many of Yang Dong's policies, because the rulers are the biggest beneficiaries of this series of policies, so even if some of Yang Dong's policies cannot be copied, Li Yuan will discuss with his son and his advisers how to use them in Li Tang's territory.

Because the uniform land to the household and the apportionment of the mu tax are less exploited by the family, not only the Shangluo County has become rich and the treasury has been full, but also attracted many people under Xiao Miao's rule.

However, Li Yuan did not do it thoroughly, and did not dare to promote it in Guanzhong, so that the common people, slaves and tenants of the big clans who were deeply exploited by the family fled to the nearby counties in Guanzhong under the rule of Yang Tong.

Although Li Yuan did not dare to promote compulsory education under his rule, "Mengxue" hurt the family, but it was conducive to the imperial power of all generations, and he would never prohibit it.

Li Yuan's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he said with a wry smile: "Presumably Yang Tong has made a lot of money." ”

In terms of making money, Yang Tong is really good!

The government-run supply and marketing cooperatives he set up specialized in selling grain, oil and salt, farm tools, cloth, and other necessities of life, so as to resist the malicious price hikes of businessmen. is also because the supply and marketing association is government-run, and the people are willing to buy it even if they are in line, so that a large amount of price difference falls into Yang Tong's pocket, which also provides a lot of resources for raising officials and raising the army.

Although Li Yuan was red-eyed, he didn't dare to do it, because the grain, oil and salt, farm tools, and cloth business were all in the hands of the Guanlong magnates, and he didn't dare to grab the bowl of rice from the Guanlong magnates.

He raised the "Mengxue" in his hand, shook his head and said: "This book is all made of rice paper, Yang Tong wants to promote culture and education, but he takes it for granted!" When he becomes a pauper, he will know how ridiculous it is to popularize books in Quanzhi. How much did this book sell for in the Sui Dynasty? ”

Xuan paper is not inferior to the paper of later generations, the only drawback is that the workmanship is complicated, a good rice paper needs to go through soaking, ash masking, cooking, bleaching, pulping, water fishing, glue, pasting and other eighteen processes, after a year can be made.

Therefore, rice paper is extremely expensive, and ordinary people dare not think about it. Even Li Yuan is reluctant to waste it, he usually writes on hard yellow paper, and only uses rice paper when necessary.

Although the book "Mengxue" only has "Thousand Character Text", "Three Character Classic", and "Disciple Rules", after adding explanations and some small stories that teach people to be good and learn, there are also tens of thousands of words and more than 100 pieces of paper! Including printing costs, binding costs, how can ordinary people buy the price, they can't even afford books, how can people read thousands of books, how can they have rich knowledge?

In order to weaken the advantages of the family, Emperor Wen of Sui widely promoted culture and education and opened the imperial examination, his original intention was to let the poor people in the world learn knowledge, and to gain fame through the imperial examination system, so as to interrupt the monopoly of the super wealthy on the cultural level and small and medium-sized officials.

But because culture and education are not effective in a day or two, the imperial examination system has allowed the family to gain more benefits, and it has also directly led to the wise Shenwu Emperor Wen of Sui doing a stupid thing in his later years. ordered the abolition of schools, and demolished all the Guozijian, Taixue, and state and county schools, and did not allow the people to study. After that, although Yang Guang reopened the school, because the paper was too expensive, the books were still sky-high, and the effect was not satisfactory.

Liu Wenjing understood what Li Yuan meant, and said: "This kind of paper with a smooth surface, white as jade, and arbitrarily folded paper is not rice paper, and the price is about the same as bamboo paper. ”

Li Yuan's eyes widened, and he whispered, "How is it possible?" ”

In the Tang Dynasty, except for rice paper and some precious paper, there was no paper that could be folded. The most widely circulated on the market is bamboo paper, hard yellow paper, bamboo paper popular well-off home, this kind of paper is as hard as biscuits, can only be used for writing, a break on the break, the lowest price.

Liu Wenjing said: "It is said that the technology of papermaking and printing has made a major breakthrough in the Sui Dynasty! The supply and marketing cooperatives all over the Sui Dynasty were full of books, the thickness of the books was different, and the prices were also high, and the Sui Dynasty had all popularized, so the books would be sold in Guanzhong and other places! But the highest book is only two dollars, not to mention the big families, even ordinary people, can afford it. It is said that in the Sui Dynasty, the highest price of books was only 200 yuan. The difference between the two prices was tenfold, and it was the booksellers who made a huge difference from it. ”

"Why is that? What's the point? Li Yuan frowned and was puzzled, books were popularized on Yang Tong's side, but they were monopolistic in Guanzhong, even if the price of the most expensive books was doubled to two times to the bookseller, after twenty times here, there were people who were willing to buy it, Yang Tong only earned eight hundred dollars from the bookseller, which was too cheap, and he felt that there must be a conspiracy here.

"Yang Tong is not selling books, but buying the hearts of the world's poor people and the people!" Liu Wenjing sighed: "Books were one of the symbols of wealth in the past, and the number of books in the collection is a criterion for whether a family is rich or not. It is not easy for Hanshi to study, if you want to ask for learning, if you want to have a book to read, you need to borrow books and transcribe them, not to mention the cumbersomeness, and you have to owe a favor to an old man, if the relationship is not good, you can't borrow it. Now Yang Tong handed over the books to the mercenary booksellers of the world at a low price and sold them in the world, if the Han Shi wants to study again, he does not have to ask for the family door valve, in the long run, the world will be prosperous, and finally, who is the Han Shi of the world grateful for? It is Yang Dong who promotes high-quality and inexpensive books. ”

What level of people in the world want to read the most?

Family? Not!

The family has the most abundant educational resources and living conditions in the world, and reading is a general habit for them, and they can become famous through family relations, so they don't have much desire for reading.

Commoners? Neither is it!

Before solving the problem of food and clothing, the people were concerned about their livelihood, and reading was just a very noble thing for them, a kind of unattainable castle in the air. But until they make a living, they don't think about studying.

The most eager to read -

It's undoubtedly a cold door.

The poor family is different from the poor family of later generations, the cold family of this era refers to the small rich family who does not have to worry about their livelihood, but is not a wealthy family, and the poor family knows what benefits reading can bring to themselves, so they are the most eager to master knowledge in the world.

The saying of "poor literature and rich martial arts" is that paper books circulate all over the world and are no longer expensive.

The children of the poor family have to condescend to the noble family, in order to have a chance to study, and even if they are successful, if they want to get the opportunity to advance, they have to be appreciated by the powerful families, and they are willing to give charity. is also because there is no support from the family behind him, and he will not be able to be in a high position for the rest of his life, and even if there is, it will be an accident within an accident. It's just that the boundary between the family valve and the Hanmen is not so obvious, as long as the Hanmen successfully accumulates three generations, there is also hope to become one of the wealthy families, but it takes hundreds of years of accumulation to be possible.

Yang Tong popularized a large number of cheap books in the world, and a large number of Han scholars were bound to return to the Sui, because compared with Guanzhong, Central Plains, Jiangnan and other places where there was a fixed allocation of official career resources, no Han scholars, and no noble sons from poor families, the Sui Dynasty implemented the employment system of attaching importance to Han scholars, opening up scholars, and being able to be mediocre and inferior, so that Han scholars could get more opportunities to get ahead.

"This ......" Li Yuan didn't expect this move, in addition to cutting off the roots of the family, there would be such an effect, Li Yuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he also had the intention of promoting compulsory education, but he was stopped by his advisers, if it was promoted early, wouldn't he Li Yuan be able to occupy some of the favors of the world's poor people? Why worry if there are no talents available? And why be subject to the family gate valve everywhere? Hurriedly looked at Liu Wenjing and said, "Zhaoren has a way to crack it?" ”

"This is Yang Dong's usual conspiracy, all the princes in the world can see it, but they all have an intersection with the family door valve, so no one dares to touch it, Yang Tong's domain under the rule of Yang Dong, there is no family gate valve trace of the cone, all kinds of policies for the benefit of the country and the people have prevailed, but in terms of culture and education, even if he is so strong, it still took more than three years to pave the way, and now he has become a big trend, even if the world family valve joins forces, there is no way to resist." Liu Wenjing shook her head and sighed!

The atmosphere in the hall, as Liu Wenjing's words fell silent, Li Yuan's father and son, Xiao Yu, and Chen Shuda all understood why Liu Wenjing said this.

Now that Xiao Yu and Uncle Chen have reached Li Yuan's most trusted Li Tang upstart, they are all qualified to participate in this kind of major resolution.

Xiao Yu is the seventh son of Emperor Xiao Yue of Liang Ming of the Southern Dynasty, the half-brother of Emperor Xiao Cong of Western Liang Jing, and the younger brother of Empress Xiao of Emperor Yang of Sui. Young filial piety is famous all over the world. He loves to learn, is talented, upright, and upright. After the fall of the Western Liang, Yang Guang and Empress Xiao raised adults, and after entering Chang'an, he worshiped the Shilang of the Inner History, and when Li Yuan was based in Guanzhong, he offered Hechi, Shunzheng, and Hanzhou three counties to Li Yuan, and the official worshiped the Hubu Shangshu, added Guanglu Doctor, and was named the Duke of Song!

Chen Shuda is the seventeenth son of Emperor Xuan of the Chen Dynasty, the younger brother of the Empress Chen, outstanding and talented, and he was able to improvise poems when he was more than ten years old. He was originally the general guard of Jiangjun, when Li Yuan rebelled, he surrendered to Jiangjun, and was later named the Huangmen Shilang, and now he has taken over Liu Wenjing's position and established one of the magnates of Li Tang.

This is also Li Yuan's conscious weakening of the power of Guanlong's magnates in the court, although he entered the customs because of Guanlong's magnates and quickly sat down, but he was worried about the strength of Guanlong's magnates.

However, due to the fact that the Kwantung scholars were not as powerful as Guanlong in Guanzhong, Li Yuan gradually introduced the southern scholars, which was also the reason why Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda were promoted again and again.

As for Liu Wenjing, although he was the mastermind of Li Yuan and had always played an important role in the first few years of the incident, he was a madman with a strong bookish spirit, and because he knew too many things that he shouldn't know, he was almost marginalized.

"The saint doesn't have to care too much about the impact of the influx of books into the Guanzhong." Liu Wenjing said with a smile: "Although Yang Tong has won the favor of the Han scholars in the world and won the allegiance of a large number of Han scholars, he has also touched the core interests of the great families and major princes in the world, which has also created a solid foundation for the alliance. In less than a year, we will be able to join forces with all the princes to discuss it. Although Yang Tong is strong, but the border stretches for thousands of miles, from Lingwu in the west to Liaodong in the east, if the princes join forces to crusade, does the saint think that Yang Dong can block the world's soldiers with the strength of one family? ”

"Absolutely not!"

Compared with the time when anti-king was prevalent in the past, the forces that can be counted now are none other than Li Yuan, Li Mi, Wang Shichong, Dou Jiande, Zhu Cang, and Du Fuwei, Shen Faxing, Li Zitong, Lin Shihong, and Xiao Mo in the south.

"Just how to convince the princes of all walks of life to join forces?"

Li Yuan had a headache, the previous round of envoys all failed, because all the princes knew that Yang Tong was the biggest threat to Li Yuan, and before Li Yuan was killed, Yang Dong would not attack the Central Plains for the time being, and when Yang Dong destroyed Li Yuan, maybe he would have unified the Central Plains! With a complete southern force to deal with Yang Tong, the odds of victory are great. And before that, only a fool would agree to form an alliance with Li Yuan to provoke Yang Tong, who has no threat to him for the time being!

And Du Fuwei, Shen Faxing, Li Zitong, Lin Shihong, and Xiao Miao, the five princes, are separated from Yang Tong by a Central Plains, far away! They didn't realize Yang Dong's horror at all, so they weren't in a hurry at all.

At this time, Chen Shuda smiled and said: "The previous round of envoys was just to test the attitude of the princes, and the next step is to focus on attacking the family lords under the princes, to Chen Ming, and to buy off the princes and brothers of all parties with heavy profits." For example, you can buy Wang Shichong's brothers Wang Shishi, Wang Shiheng, Wang Shiwei, Wang Shiyun, and Wang Shibian, or you can buy his sons Wang Xuanying, Wang Xuanshu, and Wang Xuanqiong, so that they can influence Wang Shichong; Li Mi, on the other hand, can buy his close ministers Fang Xuanzao, Bing Yuanzhen, Wang Bodang, Shan Xiongxin, and Xu Shiji; On Dou Jiande's side, he bought his brother-in-law Liu Heimin, the mastermind Kong Deshao...... As long as the princes' relatives agree, it will be much easier to attack the princes' hearts. Of course, before buying, we must understand the character of those people, so that we can deal with them and leave those who are bent on the Lord for the time being! When everyone agrees to form an alliance with my Datang, it is useless for a few people to oppose it, so they can only go with the flow. ”

"Listening to what Mr. said, I suddenly opened!" Li Yuan's eyes lit up, and he praised Chen Shuda.

At this time, Chen Shuda said modestly: "The minister is ashamed, this is also after listening to Brother Zhaoren's analysis, he has some understanding!" Picking up people's teeth is insignificant. As he spoke, he bowed to Liu Wenjing.

There is a fierce factional struggle among the high-level of the Li Tang court, Liu Wenjing, Pei Lian, Dugu Quan, Dou Wei, Xiao Yu are the core figures in Li Tang, in the light and dark struggle between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, Liu Wenjing, Pei Lian, Xiao Yu remain neutral, and Li Shimin is the son-in-law of the Dugu family, Dugu is naturally subordinate to Li Shimin's faction, and Dou Wei in order to seize the first seat of the Guanlong magnate in the hands of the Dugu family, it is natural to support the crown prince Li Jiancheng.

However, when Pei Lin was humiliated in Hedong County, he couldn't deal with Yang Tong, so he hated Li Jiancheng, who was incapable of protecting him, and thus became a staunch supporter of Li Shimin.

But after Liu Wenjing was withdrawn from the confession, the court unanimously agreed that Wei Kuangbo, the head of the Jingzhao Wei family, was a suitable candidate, but Li Jiancheng strongly recommended Chen Shuda, and Li Yuan also wanted to weaken the Guanlong magnates, so he adopted Li Jiancheng's suggestion and promoted Chen Shuda to the confession, so that the power of Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin was restored to balance.

Liu Wenjing and Li Shimin have old friends, but he is dedicated to the public and should be included in the imperial party, but because of Li Yuan's suspicious alienation and suppression, and because the biggest political enemy Pei Lin took the initiative to move closer to Li Shimin, there are signs of moving closer to Li Jiancheng. And Chen Shuda is a core member of the princelings, so he naturally does not want to offend this talented and powerful person with a strong bookish spirit.

"Chen Shangshu is polite!" Liu Wenjing replied as usual.

(Can brothers who have monthly passes and recommended tickets come to comfort and comfort?) I implore the brothers to support the genuine version, it is only a few cents for you, but it is a great motivation for me...... The collection is also a great support! ）
