"Mei Niang, don't worry, these two million fish, it seems like a lot, in fact, there are not many, besides, although the rice has been harvested, but for ten days and a half, it doesn't matter if you don't fish out the fish."

Li Kuan didn't expect to make any money from these fish, so he asked the tenants to take their fish to the city and sell them first, and then talk about it later.

The promotion of rice fish is just to let everyone see the benefits of this model, so that rice cultivation can be more easily popularized.

Of course, providing more meat choices for the people of Datang can be regarded as an indirect achievement.

However, except for Chang'an, which is a densely populated city with waterways passing through, other places are actually of little significance.

For example, many states and counties in the south of the Yangtze River are originally covered with water nets, and there is no shortage of fish.

Another example is the states of Hebei, which are not suitable for rice planting, and rice fish is a false proposition.

"However, after all, they still have to be sold, and everyone in the house eats fish every day, and they can't eat so many fish."

Wu Meiniang muttered, not understanding why Li Kuan was so calm.

"If you can't eat it, then sell it cheaply. If no one asks for a penny, we will sell it for a penny. ”

"Huh? Another penny? ”

Wu Meiniang immediately thought of the scene when Li Kuan sold big yellow croaker for a penny and a pound in Dengzhou Mansion, and then sold woad vegetables for a penny and a catty before.

Now it's a penny a fish.

This is to make other fish farmers cry and faint in the ground.

"Mei Niang, we raise this fish to let more people know that if you follow the advice of the Chu Wangfu to plant crops, the harvest will be great. Even if it seems strange at first, the end result is very good, as long as the goal is achieved, we are considered successful. ”

Li Kuan thought of the dozens of acres of cotton that had been planted in the field, and in two years, it would be time to start large-scale promotion.

Rice is a crop that everyone has heard of, but what is this cotton?

What farmer would dare to plant at that time?

This is a question that Li Kuan needs to consider in advance.

If the farmers in Chang'an City and even Guanzhong Road can see the various new crops promoted by the Chu Wangfu and can have a good harvest, then the difficulty of cotton planting and promotion will definitely be reduced a lot.

At least in the vicinity of Chang'an, although it is not the best place to grow cotton.

Now, Li Kuan suggested that the imperial court should move the Turks from the Yunzhong Governor's Mansion to Jiangnan Province and Shannan Province, and then let the people of some densely populated prefectures and counties in Guanzhong move to the Yunzhong Governor's Mansion, and each of them would be allocated a dozen acres of land to plant cotton.

It doesn't take ten years for the Yunzhong Governor's Mansion to truly become the territory under the rule of the Tang Dynasty.

After all, there must be enough Han people to stabilize the frontier.

Li Kuan didn't want to talk to Wu Meiniang about this idea for the time being.

"If that's the case, in fact, the goal has basically been achieved. In recent years, there have been many people planting new Chinese cabbage in Guanzhong Road, and there are also farmers growing tea in many places, and the farmers' trust in the Chu Wangfu has been strengthened. ”

"No, it's not enough, whether it's cabbage or tea, it's not a large-scale planting after all, do you see the cotton? This king has already said that this is something that exists to replace linen, and the planting area at that time will not be millions of acres, how can it be possible to complete this task? ”

Speaking of the task, Li Kuan suddenly remembered that the broken system had not moved for a long time, and he couldn't help but take a look at how much the task of building a 10,000-mile cement road had been completed.

"System, how much has this concrete road been built?"

However, this question in my mind did not get any reply.

This system can't be broken, right?

【Ding! 】

A panel appeared, 9214/10000.

Li Kuan was stunned for a moment, and then rejoiced.

Needless to say, this 9204 must have been completed to the length of the cement road.

After tossing for so long, it's finally almost finished.

"Lord Wang, Lord Wang!"

Wu Meiniang's face was a little shy, but she soon became aggrieved.

At first, Li Kuan stared at herself in a daze, she thought that Li Kuan finally had a different mind about herself today, and she was secretly happy in her heart, and she didn't waste half an hour this morning to dress up.

As a result, after waiting for a while, she asked Li Kuan a few words, but she didn't get an answer, only to find out that Li Kuan was distracted!

Distracted!

Wu Meiniang's heart was full of grievances, and she couldn't suppress it.

Standing in front of him with such a delicate beauty, the prince was actually distracted in a daze!

It's completely like air.

"Huh? Yes...... What's wrong? ”

Li Kuan was gently shaken by Wu Meiniang's arm before he came back to his senses from the system.

"Nothing!"

Seeing Li Kuan's appearance, Wu Meiniang didn't want to speak.

"Mei Niang, this king wants to build an eight-hundred-mile cement road in the shortest possible time, do you have any good suggestions?"

Eight hundred miles is not long, and it is not short.

Li Kuan just thought about it, and it seems that there is no very strict standard for the requirement of 10,000 miles of cement road in this system.

You build an official road 100 paces wide into a concrete road, and a mile long is still a mile long.

If you talk about a road that is only four or five steps wide and built into a concrete road, one mile long should still be considered one mile long.

Otherwise, even if all the official roads under construction in Datang are completed, they will be less than 9,000 miles.

However, if you add in the miscellaneous roads built in various places, this number is likely to be about the same.

So Li Kuan suddenly felt that it was entirely possible for him to complete this task in the near future.

The task is not completed, and the points of the system are basically going to run out, except for leaving a little points to exchange for drugs and the like under special circumstances, this system is really going to become a chicken rib.

"Lord Wang, this building roads and bridges is a good practice of accumulating goodness. But the prince has accumulated too much goodness, so aren't you afraid that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Wei will be jealous? ”

There were no outsiders around, but Wu Meiniang raised this question very directly.

Although Li Kuan is the prince who has passed away, the throne is basically out of his line.

However, will Lee Seung-gan and Lee Tae think so?

Maybe it used to be, but the repeated attempts to win over and over again were unsuccessful, and it's hard to guarantee whether people will have other ideas.

Since ancient times, everything involving the succession to the throne has been bloody.

Wu Meiniang is still quite satisfied with her current life and doesn't want any accidents.

"This king really doesn't need too much fame, but it can be changed to another name, the princess of Chu is about to celebrate her sixtieth birthday, wouldn't it be right to do good deeds in her name?"

The more Li Kuan thought about it, the more he felt second.

He hasn't thought about what to give for this 60th birthday, if he does something good in her name, maybe it's better than giving any gift.

"If that's the case, the prince only needs to rebuild the yellow mud road between the villages outside the city into a cement road, which is basically enough, and it doesn't take much time."

Wu Meiniang's brain turned quickly.

If you want to build a cement road as quickly as possible, it is best not to be too far away from Chang'an.

If you want to make the princess of Chu feel the love of the people, it is best to let the people be favored.

For the villages around Chang'an City, if Li Kuan's idea was not there, it would be at least another thousand years before they could enjoy the cement road.

"Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you, the sooner the better. None of these villagers who participated in the construction of the concrete road were given two fish a day and three meals a day. ”

Li Kuan, this can be regarded as a disguised cash-for-work.

Regardless of the dynasty, the villagers needed to contribute to the construction of roads between villages.

Even more than a thousand years later, in the countryside, every family has to work when the village paves cement roads.

It's okay if you don't come out, just give money.

As for wages, there is none.

"Lord Wang, don't worry, the left and right are only eight hundred miles of country roads, and now the busy farming season is about to pass, at most one month, the construction of eight hundred miles of cement roads will definitely be completed."

Wu Meiniang knows all kinds of situations very well, and she is still very happy that Li Kuan can hand over this matter to herself.

……

Du Fu.

Du Wei sat in the hall with a pale face, listening to the report of the housekeeper.

"Is it true that you can't sell a penny or a pound?"

"Lang Jun, those Tian Shenu, the fresh big grass carp and the big crucian carp, are all a penny now, pick and choose at will, this price, the old slave has never seen it."

A penny a fish?

Du Wei's face was a little ugly.

This fish farming also requires costs, not to mention the occupation of good paddy fields to dig ponds, that is, the fish fry, fish food, all need to spend manpower and material resources.

If the fish in your own pond want to make money, you need at least two or three pennies a catty.

Now that you can't sell a penny or a pound, isn't it a blood loss?

"Big brother, I really can't sell it, so we'll wait and talk. The straw carp of those Tianshenu were all raised in the paddy fields, and they were in a hurry to sell them, so they could get such a low price. When they run out, the price of fish in Chang'an City will eventually come up. ”

Du He's eyes were a little evasive, and he didn't dare to look at his eldest brother.

In the past month, they have just dug hundreds of acres of fish ponds, and are preparing to expand the scale of farming.

For these fish ponds, I have already spent thousands of dollars.

If it's really a toss in vain, then all the money earned in the previous months will be lost, not to mention, you have to post it upside down.

This...... That's how it can be good.

It is said that feng shui rotates, but this is also too fast, right?

"Second brother, the cultivation of rice and fish is so successful, those Tianshenu will definitely continue to breed next year. In addition, they can put some fish that cannot be sold in the pond and sell them slowly. They don't spend money on fish farming, even if they earn a penny, we are different. ”

Du Wei listened to Du He's suggestion and did not agree.

The price of this fish, although it is impossible to be so cheap for a penny a pound forever.

But to revert back to five pennies a pound, it is impossible.

Even if it's a pound of three pennies, it is very difficult.

But if the price of fish has been so low, those ponds in their own homes will have no meaning of existence, it is better to follow the tenants of the Chu Wangfu, plant rice, and raise rice fish.

"This Li Kuan, why do you have to do something every time."

Du He couldn't help but hate Li Kuan.

How many times have I been cheated by him?

……

In the Xuanzheng Palace, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others discussed many times, and finally decided on a plan to further open Shannan Province and Jiangnan Province.

"Your Majesty, after the internal migration of the Turks, in order to avoid future troubles, the number of people resettled in each county should not exceed 1,000, and it is better not to resettle in the same place, but to separate them into various regions, so that even if there is turmoil, the harm will be limited."

Li Zhong was also called to the Daming Palace today, so naturally he didn't come to be a little transparent.

Li Shimin: "Kuan'er, if you have any suggestions, let's say them all." ”

"The cultivation of this rice, the Turks naturally do not, Weichen suggested that the imperial court can recruit the students of the Agricultural College of Guanshishan Academy to follow to the counties to guide the Turks and local people to plant rice."

Guanshishan Academy has been in operation for several years, and some students have reached the point where they have come out to earn a living.

It is naturally a little difficult for Chang'an City to settle so many people in one go, but if you look at the world, those people in the academy are nothing.

The people of the agricultural college can go to guide the agricultural planting in the counties, even if it is a Xu official, it is a good livelihood for the children of craftsmen to come to the book.

Although it is more difficult for people from medical school to completely become teachers, it is not completely impossible to go to various states and counties to be barefoot, and it is also a good choice to cooperate with people from agricultural colleges and law schools to go to various county offices.

It's better than those villagers treating themselves themselves, right?

As for the students of the Counting Academy and the Gewu Academy, basically the various workshops in the Chu Wangfu have digested and absorbed them by themselves.

And in the madrasal colleges, many of them can go to various Mongolian schools as a teacher, and for the time being, the employment pressure is not very great.

"The officials can give them a document and let these students follow them to the states and counties where rice is promoted, if they do a good job, they will naturally have a bright future, and if they do not do a good job, then they will not be able to complain about others."

These prefectures and counties that were selected for rice promotion were basically the lower counties that were relatively backward at this time, otherwise there would not be so many borderless lands to give to the Turks.

However, the Turks were savage, and let them go to these wastelands to make a living, as long as they had a stutter, they did not worry that they would not survive.

And to get hundreds of thousands of people to eat, for the household at this time, although it cannot be said to be easy, but it is still easy.

Anyway, I don't have to raise them like this every year, it's just that I have to pay some money and food in the first year.

Once the land cleared by these people has been produced, after a few years, the imperial court can naturally recover all the original expenses from them.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured, as long as they are given a stage, the students of Guanshishan Academy will definitely give Your Majesty a surprise."

Knowledge changes fate, and this is not called in vain.

Those students of the academy went to various states and counties, and Li Kuan was still relatively relieved.

After all, these students are not the kind of people who die to study in the country.
