Chapter 709: Military Transportation Wants to Go to War (1st Update)
"Selling newspapers, Bashui Li family Zhuangzi buys tattered clothes and useless paper. The Feng family of Andefang recruited workers to collect sorghum. ”
"Selling newspapers, Li's Zhuangzi has collected things, and there is a batch of newly arrived dried fruits at Bashui Wharf, wholesale and retail."
"Selling newspapers, the Li family Zhuangzi wants rags and waste paper, and the Lin family's gold and silver shop collects old gold and silver jewelry."
Once again, the newsboys were running and shouting as they waved their newspapers.
The content shouted was not only what the Li family Zhuangzi needed, but also the advertisements made by other people.
The idea was naturally Li Yi's idea, who wanted the newsboy to help shout and add extra money.
The more words you have, the more money you add, you can designate a few newsboys, and all the newsboys in Jingzhao Mansion shout together, one word and one money.
The Li family Zhuangzi took ninety percent of this money and gave one percent to the newsboy, which is a lot.
Most of the ninety percent of the money taken by the Li family Zhuangzi provided meals and clothes for the newsboy.
The newsboy, who was originally in poor economic condition in his family, has now become the breadwinner of the family, and at the same time can learn knowledge.
When the people heard that Li Zhuangzi had collected things, they began to look in their homes to see if there were any clothes that were worn out, and the kind that could not be repaired.
I found it, I saw that I had time, took it to the bridgehead of Lijia Zhuangzi, drank a bowl of free soup, threw things aside, and left, no money.
The people only know what the Li family Zhuangzi needs, and they don't care what they use it for.
The people of the Li family Zhuangzi were picking up the things sent by others while transporting supplies outside.
A large number of leather clothes and boots collected from the pawn shop have been processed and refurbished, and they have been sent to the border soldiers of the Tang Dynasty in Tibet.
The first batch of materials were all skins, which were given free of charge by the Li family Zhuangzi, and the transportation was the responsibility of the imperial court.
The second batch is being processed, it is a military coat, Li Yi's military coat at that time, cotton.
The cotton harvest was basically over, and the people who helped made a lot of money.
Those who did not have a field at home continued to work in the workshop that Li Zhuangzi put outside, removing cottonseeds, spinning threads, weaving, and dyeing.
The military coat is the color of withered grass with white camouflage, which is the color of the winter in Tibet.
Double-breasted, there is a place for buckles on the left and right sides.
The wind blows from the right to the left, that is, the right side is pressed on the left, and vice versa.
The buttons are copper, which is better than iron.
A military coat can be used as a quilt, and wearing a military coat can find a place to shrink in winter without being frozen to death.
"Why is this pocket placed on the chest? Nothing to use. ”
Bi Gou came to talk about the distribution and cost of cotton purchase and processing.
I saw a very interesting military coat, put it on and try it, it was hot.
It was found that there were three pockets, the left and right waist pockets and the upper left pocket.
"Put the kettle." Li Yi took a combination pot, just enough to stuff it in.
"Lao Bi, you see, the pot is filled with water and placed in clothes, so it is not easy to freeze. Someone shoots an arrow, shoots it to the position of the heart, and the kettle blocks it. ”
Li Yi said the original intention of his design and used the kettle as a heart guard.
"Okay." Bi Gou gestured for a while, thought it was good, and quickly took it off, it was too hot.
Li Yi took him to look at the account books and calculate which ones belonged to whom, and the cost of the military coats made for the soldiers was borne by the household department.
This money is not from the Li family Zhuangzi, who will make a batch of things separately and send them to the soldiers on the front line.
The people outside watched the truckloads of leather clothes and boots being sent away, and inquired one after another with curiosity.
I quickly got the answer and used it for those who were fighting at the border.
The news spread, and the Tubo people in Honglu Temple hurriedly sent people back to Tibet.
"Datang is reluctant to make peace, and he sent something to protect him from the cold, and I am afraid that he will take the initiative to attack in winter." Bo Yan's face was sad.
Isimba sighed: "Now that Tibet can no longer attack, it is difficult to defend, and maybe it will lose a place." ”
Bo Yan looked at the tea bowl on the table: "Look again, if you carry grain over there, you will definitely fight." ”
"This year, Jingzhao Mansion uses the rent of the apportionment to the mu, and the rent collected is more, and everything will be known when the soybeans and sorghum are harvested."
Ishimba felt that the rent of the Tang Jingzhao Mansion was terrible, and the imperial court received a lot of grain, which could be directly turned into military rations.
The mode of transportation can be sent to the side by Jingzhao Mansion, and the beam is sent further west at the same time.
All the state capitals moved together, and the overall food loss did not decrease, but the speed was faster.
The westernmost place gave the local grain to the soldiers, and in a few days, the grain from the eastern state arrived.
"Don't be afraid, we also have grain for the autumn harvest there, but what we are afraid of is the spring war." This is all he can comfort.
There is a harvest of food from the winter war, but the consumption will be very large.
Even if it withstands Datang's offensive, next year will not be easy.
"I hope to be able to exchange all the soldiers who were captured by Datang and farm next year......"
Isimba couldn't go on anymore and was worried.
The people of Tubo who captured the Tang Dynasty were farming in the past and did not exchange with the Tang Dynasty, and Tubo lacked soldiers who could fight.
exchanged with the Tang Dynasty, and Tubo lacked people to help with farming.
The weapons of the captured people could not be returned, and the Tibetans had to build their own weapons, lacking iron.
In the Li family Zhuangzi, Li Yi and Bi Gou also discussed grain.
"When the grain is harvested, take Weishui into the valley water, and take a short land route into Baoshui." Li Yi helped arrange it.
"Re-enter the Han River? Han water into the Yangtze River, sent to Shu? Bi Gou naturally followed the route that followed.
"No, after entering Baoshui, I will go to Liangzhou, and sell in Liangzhou, mainly soybeans, since everyone eats soybean oil, there are more soybeans after planting wheat.
There are so many soybeans in Jingzhao Province, and the price will become lower, which is not conducive to the people who grow beans to sell to Liangzhou and alleviate the price of beans in Xialiangzhou. ”
Li Yi gave such a reason.
Bi Gou didn't keep up with the rhythm for a while: "Isn't it for war?" ”
"There is food on the other side of the war, and if we don't fight this year, we will scare the Tibetan people and make them have problems in deployment." Li Yi said with a smile.
Bi Gou shook his head helplessly: "To sell beans is also to show the Tibetan envoys?" Let them think they are going to fight. ”
"Yes! I used to worry about them calling, but I had to worry them instead. Grasp the initiative in the war, otherwise they will make peace when they say peace, and they will fight when they say war, and they will play with them day by day. ”
Li Yi does not want to sign a cease-fire agreement with Tibet at all, because history records that after this peace, Tibet will fight again next year.
Then the initiative in the war will always be in the hands of Tibet, and when Tibet wants to rest, it will make peace, and suddenly send troops after resting.
In this case, the two sides have been in a state of war, so why should Tubo breathe a sigh of relief?
"It's okay, this year, the imperial court will collect a lot of beans and sorghum, which will only be used in Jingzhao Mansion, so it is better to fry soybean oil and eat bean cakes for the people of Liangzhou."
Bi Gou is indispensable, since Li Yi has mentioned it, sell it, by the way, see what there is in Liangzhou, and buy some back.
After talking about the transaction, he asked Li Yi: "Next year, the state capitals around Jingzhao Mansion will also clear the acres of land?" ”
"Luoyang is the second pilot in that circle, other places are not in a hurry, Luoyang is another capital, and land annexation is serious."
Li Yi also wanted to stabilize a little more and deal with Jingzhao Mansion and Luoyang, so that there would be little resistance in other places.
