This group of merchants who came to visit Li Yan was not the caravan that Li Yan had dealt with the most before.

Most of them are small individual merchants, some of whom run dye shops and some of them run tea shops.

All in all, these people have great potential to become the first batch of small workshop owners of machinery production to promote the economic development of Datang.

"May I ask Master Hou, what is the price of the handloom produced by the workshop on this day? Is the yield really that exaggerated? ”

"And the hydroloom, which can really be used by the river? Eliminate manpower? ”

The attitude of these small bosses towards Li Yan is extremely respectful, which is far from the appearance of usually talking about business, which is the respect that status and prestige bring to Li Yan.

"If you are interested, you can bring the textile machine back first, and it is not too late to pay the copper money after trial production, anyway, the price is not too expensive."

Li Yan is not at all like a businessman, his purpose is only to stimulate the promotion of machine production, and accelerate the economic development of the Tang Dynasty to adapt to the development of basic industry.

Li Yan never wanted to make a lot of money by selling machines.

The selling price of this batch of textile machines is actually only about 1.5 times the cost of materials and labor combined, which is a fairly appropriate price, after all, Tiangongfang also has to pay taxes to the imperial court.

"In that case, I'll be disrespectful!"

The small bosses were pleasantly surprised, they had never done such a business with anyone before.

Li Yan's move can greatly alleviate their financial pressure, and even calculate costs and profits after trial production, so that they will be more assured and the risk will be smaller.

In this way, a group of local small bosses in Chang'an took away hundreds of textile machines from Tiangongfang, and they couldn't wait to try them one by one.

Then, only two days later, the markets in Chang'an and the surrounding areas had the most intuitive response.

A large amount of high-quality yarn flows out of the hands of the small owners who have been given the looms, and the production of high-quality cloth is steadily increasing with the supply of high-quality yarn.

The increase in the quality of cloth and the decrease in price have stimulated the consumption of the people in Chang'an and the surrounding areas, and rapidly stimulated the economic development.

In this way, a group of small bosses found that it was profitable, and even due to the improvement of production efficiency, the profits were much higher than their own dyeing workshops and tea shops.

"Fully produce textile machines, Datang is still big."

Li Yan set the short-term development route of Tiangongfang.

Priority is given to the production of hand-cranked looms, and the supply is made to the entire Datang through various yamen or caravans.

Taking textiles as a starting point, it will stimulate the development of light industry, stimulate the economy of Datang, and lay a good foundation for the comprehensive promotion of the first industrial revolution.

"Now the economy of the Tang Dynasty is still a little worse, and the light industry is better to say, if the research and development of the steam engine is completed, the imperial court may not have the money to promote the relevant heavy industry ......"

Li Yan thought to himself.

To be honest, Datang is actually not poor at all, but the money is basically in the hands of the big clans everywhere.

The most important thing is that the money is not circulating in the market at all!

This is the real factor of the "poverty" of the Tang Dynasty in the early years of Zhenguan.

"Forget it, take one step at a time, it's a big deal to let capital enter the market first, wait for the industrial foundation to be solidified, and then let the imperial court cut leeks ......"

Li Yan shook his head and stopped thinking about these headache economic problems.

Li Yan returned to the Tiangong Academy, and after teaching the craftsmen of the Tiangong Academy some basic machinery to stay away, he let them study the steam engine by themselves.

These Li Yan still have to rush crazy in "Minecraft", Li Yan has a hunch that he is not far from the day when he will find the dungeon and find the end portal.

……

Three days later, Li Shimin sat in the imperial study and looked at the letter in his hand with a smile.

What surprised him was not that Li Yan made Chang'an as the center and gradually radiated the economic development of the entire Tang Dynasty, but this war report from Liangzhou.

"Liangzhou has been decided, King Changle rode his horse before the arrival of the army and fled to Xue Yantuo, but he was actually sent first by my Tang soldiers and captured it with his own hands! Good! All right! ”

Li Shimin also remembered a few names in his joy, and they were the trio of Ge Dahai, Zhou Cheng, and Zhang Qiang, who personally captured Li Youliang, the king of Changle.

These three people have the "acceleration pig" given by Li Yan, although they usually don't ride, and they don't race pigs when they ride, but at a critical time, the speed at which this "accelerated pig" bursts out is still very important.

This time, they personally captured Li Youliang, the king of Changle, and made a great contribution.

Ge Dahai, Zhou Cheng, Zhang Qiang, Zhang Dazhu...... These nine people are all good people! ”

Li Shimin made a judgment in his heart.

The reason why the first three names are extremely deep in Li Shimin's impression is because these three names have appeared in the list of the previous Lanzhou war report.

It was the fierceness of these nine people who were not afraid of death that they dragged the siege of Xue Yantuo's army, and then waited for Li Yan.

In other words, Zhang Dazhu and the other nine people have already made great contributions, and now Ge Dahai and the three of them have once again brushed up on the presence of waves in the battle report, which directly made Li Shimin recall the complete list of nine people.

Li Shimin picked up the pen and began to write, and now he is writing the draft of the reward list.

After the war, there will be a heavy reward, and the resolution of this heavy reward comes from the list that Li Shimin revised and added over and over again.

"The army will return in triumph tomorrow, Wang De, order to go down and let all the people of Chang'an know this news."

Li Shimin is in a very good mood, this time is Datang's second victory this year.

With these two great victories, presumably the people of the world will soon forget the shame of Weishui and the Xuanwumen incident.

The progress bar of Li Shimin's whitewashing plan has undoubtedly skyrocketed again, and happiness is inevitable.

In the early morning of a day later, the whole Chang'an was bustling and lively.

Everyone knew the news of the army's triumph, and the people spontaneously welcomed it, waiting for the army's arrival.

About an hour later, the army led by Li Jing slowly entered the city through the city gate.

Li Jing, Cheng Yanjin, and Wei Chigong were at the forefront, followed by Li Shimin's Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, and finally the army entered the city.

The army will not all stay in Chang'an City, except for the Xuanjiawei, an army that was already stationed in the imperial city, most of the soldiers who entered the city will gather in front of the Suzaku Gate, wait for Li Shimin to show up, and return to the camp outside the city after a ceremony.

For this process, Li Yan was naturally not interested, but regardless of his pivotal performance in the process of this battle, he was arranged in advance on the Vermilion Bird Square, waiting for the reward ceremony.

"Dazhu, do you think our military exploits this time are enough to be crowned a general?"

"A few of us may not be enough, but the three of you must be stable, tsk, capture King Changle alive, this is a great achievement."

Zhang Dazhu, Ge Dahai and others joked with each other with great interest.

They have long been accustomed to the people greeting each other, they felt this atmosphere when they came to Chang'an, and now they are obviously much calmer when they come to Chang'an, and they are not too excited to be too obvious.

"Look over there, the boss is there!"

Suddenly, Ge Dahai patted Zhang Dazhu's arm continuously, as an "old" scout, he was observant and sharp, and he saw Li Yan at a glance.

I saw Li Yan standing next to Hou Junji with a loveless face, in the first echelon of the general's camp.

To be honest, Li Yan didn't like the atmosphere.

As an otaku, Li Yan would rather stay alone in the "My World" of the house, and even being busy in the Tiangong Academy is more comfortable than being here.

What's more, Li Yan didn't want any credit at all, for fear that the emperor would "frame the hero" when his mind was on the axis

"Shhh...... The boss deserves to be the boss, and the position is so good! ”

Zhang Dazhu seemed to see the idol of his life, with stars in his eyes, he recognized Hou Junji next to Li Yan, and naturally knew what grade Li Yan was standing in.

"The whole army stands still and salutes!"

When the army all stood in Suzaku Square, the triumphal ceremony and the reward ceremony also entered the process.

I thought that Li Yan did not participate in such a strong (complicated) view (trivial) process due to his successful resignation, and he never thought that this time he was just going to save people, but he didn't hide from the past.

"Ladies and gentlemen......"

Li Yan continued to maintain a loveless expression and watched Li Shimin speak.

One thing to say, now that the venue is so big, Li Shimin's voice can be heard clearly by hundreds of people in the front, and the people in the back can only hear the sound of the wind, and they don't want to hear a word.

But almost all the soldiers looked at Li Shimin, the emperor, with fiery eyes, as if they were attracted by his personality......

As the emperor, Li Shimin's eloquence is naturally level, and with his impassioned copywriting, he can infect hundreds of soldiers at the front.

In the end, driven by the emotions of hundreds of soldiers and soldiers, the enthusiasm of the whole army was inexplicably ignited.

Li Yan said that he was fortunate that he was not there last time, otherwise he would have suffered double the pain.

Holding back the boredom in his heart, Li Yan waited for half an hour, and after the complex ceremonies such as speeches and sacrifices to the sky, the triumphal ceremony finally ended, and then entered the reward ceremony.

This reward ceremony is not so complicated, all kinds of resolutions and related copywriting are prepared in advance, Li Shimin only needs to go to that station, act as a mascot, and wait for the old eunuch Wang De to read them one by one.

"Wei Guogong Li Jing ......"

"Zheng Guogong Wei Zheng ......"

“…… Wei Chigong ......"

“…… Cheng Bites Jin ......"

The first batch of reward lists are obviously these leaders of the country, and their titles have been rewarded to the top, and above them are the exclusive county kings and heirs of the royal family, these two titles are obviously not on the heads of Li Jing and others.

Therefore, the reward given to them by Li Shimin is just a simple money and verbal reward.

When it comes to being an official to the point where they are, there is no reward for it.

Therefore, once they make any real monstrous achievements in the future, the emperor will be very embarrassed and thus fall into a tangle.

What Li Yan is worried about is that this situation will happen, once he reaches the position of the prince of the country in the future, and then he accidentally makes a contribution, then what should the emperor reward?

When the time comes, what awaits you may be a trumped-up crime, and you will be cut down, and it may even be even more outrageous.

Li Yan was unwilling to go to the opposite side of the imperial court, so he resigned early, in order to stay away from military exploits.

"Dingbei Hou Li Yan ......"

When Wang De announced Li Yan's name, Li Yan's mind immediately cleared up, and he hoped that Li Shimin would consider his five "sins" and not reward or punish them all, which was the best.

"Dingbei Hou Li Yan, thousands of miles of support, take care of his body to fight between the ten thousand armies, take the head of the enemy general, after the battle, worry about Shanzhou, and run hundreds of miles again......"

"When there is immortality, Feng Li Yan, the county prince of Wannian! 1,500 households! ”

The moment Wang De's voice fell, Li Yan's temperament immediately became a lot more decadent, it seems that he still made a mistake after all, he thought that Li Shimin could move his will, but he still sealed a big ......

"Congratulations!"

"Li Xiangong, congratulations!"

Beside Li Yan, a group of generals sent their congratulations one after another, but Li Yan was not very interested, so he simply responded.

"Shhh...... The boss is strong! It's all county duke! ”

"Worthy of the boss!"

Zhang Dazhu and the others were still in the front, and they could still hear Wang De's voice, and they were sincerely happy for Li Yan.

They didn't know that Li Yan was not happy at all, but still had a faint sadness.

"Li Jing's scouts Ge Dahai, Zhou Cheng, and Zhang Qiang have a meritorious role in capturing the anti-king Li Youliang alive! Sealed from the five products, the Ranger General! Go to the military department on the same day! ”

Before they finished being happy for Li Yan, Wang De directly clicked on Ge Dahai and the others!

The three of them were all named Five-Rank Officials!

And you must know that the status of the five-rank officials in different places is also different, and the three of them all have to go to the military department!

After entering the Ministry of War, they are the officials of Chang'an, plus the grade of the fifth grade, which means that they have the qualifications to go to the court!

This is the envy of all the five-rank officials.

"Haihai, congratulations, you guys have reached the sky in one step!"

Zhang Dazhu patted Ge Dahai's arm and gave his heartfelt instructions.

"I'm a general? My old Ge family is out of breath! ”

Ge Dahai was woken up by Zhang Dazhu at this time, and he became excited after realizing it.

The reward is not over yet, and Wang De immediately shouted Zhang Dazhu's name.

"Under Li Jing, Captain Zhang Dazhu, Zhang ...... (Lazy to make up names, anyway, these are the few people)"

"In the battle of Lanzhou, I took the initiative to go out of the city to delay time, and made great contributions, and I was a guerrilla general from Wupin, and I went to Zuo Wuwei to serve on the same day!"

That is, after Ge Dahai and the three of them, the remaining six Zhang Dazhu were also sealed from the fifth grade, although they were from the fifth grade, but this is also a five-grade official!

Of course, the most important thing is that Zhang Dazhu and they are in Zuo Wuwei, which is also a large army stationed in Chang'an, and they will not gather too far together, and they will really become the stars of the Tang military.

"Not bad."

When Li Yan heard this, he felt a little better.

Now that Zhang Dazhu and the others have become generals, the grief of his tragic being named a county prince can be slightly lightened.
