The title of Chapter 347 fell into the sea
Li Ke's mansion is busy now, they are all here to ask for directions, whether they want to buy a ship or follow the navy, Cheng Hong, you can't get around!
And Cheng Hong is not there, there is only one Li Ke and one Hou Junji left in Quanzhou, and Hou Junji looks like he has nothing to do with himself.
Every day, I make a reclining chair at the city gate and lie down, and only shout two words: "Open the city gate!"
At night, there is a sentence: "Close the city gates!"
In the words of Hou Junji: "The old man's military exploits have been turned twenty-four, and there is only one official left in the sky according to the title, and the city gate is the best!" One day, if you catch a thief or something, you can be promoted to military merit! ”
Isn't that? Who would dare to use you as a city gate? The whole Quanzhou is also Hou Junji is the most relaxed, the city was not built before the east and west, after the city was built, put a reclining chair in the Kuishou Gate, nothing to drink wine, hot shake the fan, cold hug a carbon stove, the gods of the small days are not changed!
So this group of people all ran to Li Ke to set up and give gifts!
Li Ke greeted him with a smile every time, and accepted all the gifts as ordered, as for buying a boat? Wait: "The ship belongs to the navy, and the navy's governor and deputy governor are not there, so I don't dare to make up my mind!" Wait!
I can't make up my mind, but you can register with me first, and when the Governor returns, I can arrange for you to meet first, and I'll try to make it happen!" ”
At this time, there is no fooling people, since Li Ke said that he helped to promote this matter, he will definitely not talk nonsense, so this group of people is more and more diligent!
What's more, for example, the first merchants to stay in Quanzhou City, the Lu family's industry, has already been approached by the shopkeeper and asked if he can follow the fleet of grain transporters!
After all, hearing is believing, seeing is believing! Li Ke thought for a while, this sea route will be banned sooner or later, so it's better to let them take a look! It's good to give them a reassurance!
Li Ke said: "It's okay to go to sea with the fleet, but this is the art of ship navigation, you are not interested in taking a few guys to learn?" You know, the new sea boats are no better than the boats in the river.
It is not impossible for a person to operate improperly, and those who can operate the boat can borrow the southeast and northwest winds, and it will be difficult if they can't! ”
The steward of the Lu family was overjoyed when he heard this, but he didn't expect that there would be unexpected surprises! If you learn how to operate a boat, you're one step ahead!
Learn, must learn! The Lu family expressed their position at that time, and the Lu family sent 200 people to study on the ship, and paid ten yuan per person for the navy tuition!
How can there be an impermeable wall in this world, and the rest of the families knew immediately after the Lu family got on the ship, and the Lu family was worthy of the Lu family, and they were one step ahead unknowingly.
What is this? When you get on the boat, I can't be idle, isn't it just ten dollars per person?
In this way, Li Ke made a lot of money selling ferry tickets here! There is food and money, just wait for the weather to be suitable, and start work directly!
Of course, the ground has to be planted! It's just that this year, except for the rice seeds sent by Champa, the rest of the places are planted with sugarcane.
This sugarcane is good, sugar raw materials, bagasse can also make paper, although this paper is not as good as rice paper, but it is cheap!
The most material used is the reeds by the river, which is a stubble a year, and it may not be completely cut for a winter!
If bagasse is enough, don't dare to say anything else, Quanzhou here can make the money of paper cheap one-tenth of the price of rice paper now, it can be said that this alone can make Li Kejun King rise back to the king of Shu!
This is related to Li Ke's title, so Li Ke gave an order early on, except for two boats of rice seeds sown in suitable places, the rest of the places are planted with sugarcane! As for food, with Zhancheng, Quanzhou will still be short of food in the future?
Li Ke has this confidence, this boatload of grain is transported down, and everyone knows that there must be no shortage of food! You have to know how many people are there in the whole Datang now?
There are less than 2 million households, and there will be more than these people in any province in the future! The eastern region of Jiangnan is even more vast and sparsely populated, and it is not a developed coastal city at this time!
There is no land in the coastal areas, there are no ships if you want to go to sea, and those who have ships do not go to sea, and you have to know that taxes are not money these days! Collect rice, even if you have a boat, people collect taxes, can you give the tax collector two fish?
Some people say that they have sold the fish, but where will they sell it? In the era when going out was basically by walking, you couldn't afford to buy fish wherever you could go, and those who could buy fish rarely ate fish!
There is no output, the land is barren, and typhoons make landfall at every turn, and it is a catastrophe for typhoons to land in later generations, let alone in the early Tang Dynasty!
As a result, all coastal areas are like barren land! Not to mention anything else, if you don't lean against the river, you won't even be able to drink good water!
Therefore, the entire Jiangnan East Province grows sugarcane, and of course Cheng Hong's fleet only needs to keep pulling up two months of grain, which is enough for the people of the entire Jiangnan East Province to eat for a year!
Li Ke ordered, and the lower-level officials of the family immediately implemented it, and now Jiangnan Dongdao is very harmonious! The government decree is unimpeded, and the government and the people are one family!
As for the people, it is a great blessing to be fed! If you have a little spare money, you can buy two pieces of clothes, and eat some meat every once in a while, then the small day will be very beautiful!
You must know that the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, let alone being full, it is difficult to live! It's finally stabilized, and the Turks are coming to raid again!
In the winter of the ninth year of Wude, the snow was so heavy that it collapsed the house! The floods in the Zhenguan years are not counted, and there were two locust plagues alone!
The entire Datang is struggling on the hunger line! Desperately overturned Jieli, but the treasury was also empty!
Fortunately, Cheng Hong auctioned off the grassland and formed a caravan......
Finally got through those difficult days! Now that you can eat enough, and when you finish planting, you can go to the place where you build roads and cities to earn some money, what could be more beautiful than this?
And Li Ke is still in charge of food here, you must know that the food that Li Ke and Cheng Hong give to the people is not bad at all!
The white rice is enough, and the fish is all caught during naval training! The fish in the sea may not have been caught in the sea these days, and they are all very stupid.
Sharks, in particular, swim in groups as soon as a bucket of blood water falls! Just grab a boat!
Shark meat is not tasty, but it's also meat!
All the people are looking forward to Li Ke's construction! After planting the land, you can build roads and build cities! People who are happy to get the news can wake up laughing when they sleep!
Finally, it is the turn of the rest of the states and counties in Jiangnan East Road, you must know that when the road from Quanzhou to Tingzhou was built, the people of the two states got the news, and when the construction began, the people of the two states were happy, and the other states and counties were anxious!
Not to mention the food at this construction site, pay for it! Every day, the soldiers waited in the tent with copper plates, and paid every day!
Moreover, the caravan of the Lu family has become a foot merchant! He has it in his car as long as you want! What to eat......
pots, bowls, scoops, basins, kitchen knives, axes......
They are all imported from Weixian County, Chang'an, which is strong and cheap!
It's envious of the neighboring counties! If it weren't for the early shutdown, the people of the neighboring counties would definitely come!
Now finally my own state and county will be built, and I can go to the construction site to eat fish and white rice at that time! Earn copper plates to buy iron pot kitchen knives produced in Chang'an......
Li Ke is not ambiguous here, dispatching the team to build Quanzhou, giving priority to the construction of ports and granaries!
After leaving enough grain here in Quanzhou, the rest will be sent directly to Lianjiang, Hengyang and Yuhang! When the time comes, you won't be escorted back and forth, taking manpower and material resources!
And on the Tingzhou side, they also began to use horse-drawn carts to pull grain there! As long as the farmers finish planting, they can start work directly!
And after Chang'an received Li Ke's recital, Li Er praised it: "Not bad! This Jiangnan East Road is very lively! It's this Cheng Hongtai who doesn't make people worry! What kind of sea is out of the New Year? ”
Li Er looked at the wheat buried by the snow outside the Lizheng Palace: "Hey! In the past, there was amazing wheat and upland rice per mu, and then there was Zhancheng rice rotting in the ground, why did God treat me so poorly? ”
Fortunately, this Li Er doesn't know potatoes and sweet potatoes yet, if he knows these two things, it is estimated that he will go crazy!
The potatoes and sweet potatoes are still in the hands of a bunch of people throwing wood boomerangs! If you want to be kind, God will be kind to them, whether it is meat or food, they have never lacked there!
The descendants of Yan and Huang have always been grabbing a bite to eat with heaven and earth, but they have always had respect and awe for heaven and earth!
Look at the Chinese gods, what Pangu, Nuwa or something talk about is either dedication, or love! This shows the attitude of the descendants of Yan and Huang in their hearts!
The descendants of Yan and Huang are not so much respectful to God as they are respectful! For the descendants of Shenyan and Huang, they will remember the dedication you have made, but they will not blindly obey you, you are not omnipotent!
