The wagons of wine were all given to Su Dingfang, including half a cart of sugarcane wine and half a cart of imperial wine.

Although the output of the winemaking workshop has risen, there are Xue Yantuo and the Yan Ya tribes in the north, plus the newly connected Khanate of the Khanate of Xuan. Zhangxiong, Tubo and Dorjee in the west are all big consumers of alcohol.

Especially in the Yakuza and the Khanate of the Desert, after these two places came into contact with high alcohol, they simply became people who would die without alcohol!

It's too cold in winter, so I have to do it!

And now the price of high wine is not said to be compared to gold, but this price is still about the same as silver, with Su Dingfang's situation, it is not impossible to drink high wine, but it is definitely impossible to drink it openly.

Then there is Xue Li's armor, Cheng Hong, in the spirit of bad taste, asked people to make Xue Li's armor specially ask for a layer of bright silver to be plated after it was built!

Behind him is a white cape, on which is embroidered with silver thread a silver peacock with an open screen! On the hat is a bright red feather.

This outfit is absolutely sassy, and if it is on the battlefield, it is definitely in the spotlight. For Xue Li's safety, this armor can be a strong pervert.

Let's put it this way, if you want to shoot through this armor, you don't have to think about it without a crossbow!

Of course, this weight is a little perverted, and if you don't have the strength to fight, you have to be tired and half dead to be able to wear this armor to walk the whole way!

After Xue Li opened the box, he knocked on the helmet and wiped the arm armor, which was rare!

The next day, when Xue Li went to Su Dingfang's house with a cart of wine, Su Dingfang was obviously stunned, this wine is in short supply now, especially sugarcane wine, even if it is in the Lu Guogong Mansion, there is not much.

Xue Li scratched his head: "That, this is all ordered by Master Hou, let me give it to General Su as an apprenticeship!"

When Su Dingfang heard it, he got it! This can't be ignored, the apprenticeship ceremony is not pushed out, Su Dingfang said repeatedly: "It's broken, it's broken!"

After greeting for a while, the two went to the back of the martial arts arena to compete!

This time, Xue Li brought his own halberd and the strong bow given by Cheng Hong. After all, Su Lie has seen this weapon, but he has never seen this archery!

To say that these three arrows set the Tianshan Mountain is not in vain, Xue Li got a strong bow, like a tiger with wings, whether it is standing still, or riding and shooting, it is called a quasi!

The good school examination has become Xue Li's personal performance, and the sound of "boom" is endless, and the red hearts on the arrow target are all shot out!

"Good!" Apart from this word, Su Dingfang couldn't find any other praise.

As for the gift to Li Jing, it is much simpler, in addition to wine, it is a large bag of tea, it is estimated that this thing is to Li Jing's taste!

The most important one is the Goguryeo Coast sand table drawn by Niu Jianhu and built by Cheng Hong himself!

It is marked where you can land, where you can break down the river, where it is densely populated, and where it is close to the city......

It's just that this sand table is sealed now, and we won't be able to see what it looks like until Li Jing starts class......

Jiangnan Dongdao, Cheng Ping is finally back, Cheng Hong is laughing with Fang Yiai and Xi Junmai who came back from the plateau!

Fang Yiai and Xi Junmai showed their faces this time, one presided over the construction of the advancing city, the other slaughtered 150,000 Tubo troops, and the 150,000 leading generals were brave and ferocious.

With this merit, both of them were upgraded, Xi Junmai is the general of the loose official Dingyuan on the fifth grade, and Fang Yiai is the lord and the captain!

The two of them were talking to Cheng Hong about what they had seen and heard during this time.

Cheng Ping came back and handed in the task, and was sent down to rest by Cheng Hong.

The three of them continued to chat, but slowly turned the conversation to the canal being built.

"Instructor, I heard that the rest of the places have been repaired, and only this Yuhang City is left, I don't know when this will be repaired?"

"Soon, the canal will be repaired, and we will strive to plant a season of rice, and we will be able to return to Chang'an in winter." At most, next summer, Goguryeo's war to destroy the country will definitely start!

You're going to have to work hard, because I found a handsome guy some time ago! I sent it to Wei Guogong to study! ”

"Oh? What kind of handsome talent? "Xi Jun bought interest!

"Eclipse Dou Rice, infinite strength, family heirloom halberd method, skilled in bow and horse, especially good at long shooting, the strong bow I gave you, the strength will still be able to shoot the bull's-eye!"

"It's a pity to see it, it's a pity!"

To say that this Yuhang City has already been built, but there are not many people.

It's inconvenient, although Yuhang City is close to the Yuhang Port at the end of the canal, and it also has the convenience of going to the sea, but this person can't live in it at all.

The problem of drinking water alone makes it impossible for people to live in peace!

So this canal has become a priority! Thankfully, the canal is running soon!

It's just that it's been hot these days, and Cheng Hong avoided the most intense time of the sun at noon, so as not to cause unnecessary casualties, otherwise this canal would have been finished long ago!

Finally, half a month later, the canal was connected to the estuary, which was made of cement and the embankment was specially raised for a section of the road through the woods, so that the leaves would not blow into it.

In order to facilitate access, there is a small bridge at every section of the embankment, and a bridge that can be opened to traffic in every village.

There is a road on both sides of the strait, and this bridge is even bigger!

I'm not afraid of anything else, I'm afraid that this people will wade through the water by relying on their own water! The water in this canal is no worse than the water in the river, and it is so urgent that even if it is just above the knee, it can directly wash people away.

In addition, both sides of the strait are poured with cement, and there is no place to even catch it, so I am afraid that it will rush directly into the sea all of a sudden!

Every time the canal reaches a village, there are steps that extend into the water to facilitate the villagers to draw water.

After the canal entered Yuhang, it was divided into two, and a slightly narrow canal was separated, and this canal was called the dirty canal, which was specially used for sewage discharge.

After the unremitting efforts of everyone, finally when the wheat was just yellowing, the canal was repaired!

Cheng Hong stood at the source of the canal, looked at the extension of the surrounding expectations, and waved his hand down: "Open the gate and release the water!"

With the sound of the sluice activation, the river rushed away with a "whooshing......

The people of Yuhang ran after the water, shouting and laughing......

The cheerful atmosphere was contagious to everyone!

Every time the river reaches a village, there is a burst of cheers! Finally, I don't have to go far to fetch water anymore!

There is also Yuhang City, as soon as the fresh water arrives, it immediately becomes a town that is conducive to living! What's more, there is a large area of water at the end of this ditch!

Since then, Cheng Hong's drawings of the Seven Star City have all been put into practice, and the infrastructure madness is worthy of its name!

And Guan Long's folk husband is also reluctant to leave!

The men of Guanlong are only envious of the residents of Jiangnan Dongdao, envy them for having a good governor, and envy them for living even if they don't farm......

The people of Guanlong left, with pockets full of silver coins and eyes full of envy......

The seeds of this work are buried in their hearts, and I am afraid that there will be some recruitment next time, and it will definitely not be difficult to recruit people with a piece of paper!

After Cheng Hong took Li Lizhen and Wu Erya to travel all over the Seven Star City, Cheng Hong finally had something to do!

The fleet of the Jiangnan clan actually touched the spice island along the seaside! A boatload of spices was pulled back and rushed to the shipping department of Quanzhou Port to pay taxes.

At that time, as soon as the tax rate of ten taxes and four taxes was announced, it immediately made this group of Jiangnan clans in an uproar, saying that the tyranny of the pre-Qin was not as ruthless as this......

The fleet stopped at the port, did not go out, did not enter, and wanted to discuss an explanation with Li Ke, how did Li Ke know what medicine was sold in Cheng Hong's gourd?

I was so anxious that I hurriedly wrote to Cheng Hong, who was on a tour, but fortunately, Cheng Hong was in Tingzhou City, and he came back quickly in only two days!

Cheng Hong urged the horse to go straight to the shipping department, and went in with a horsewhip, and the housekeepers inside were reasoning with the tax officer of the shipping department: "Isn't the tax of ten taxes and four taxes too high, so high that it is outrageous!"

"That's it, that's it, the loss of our ships at sea this time is not enough, you are ten taxes and four, isn't this asking for human lives?"

"Boom!" Cheng Hong kicked the door open, the sound inside was suffocating, Cheng Hong glanced at it, hey, all the housekeepers except Xiao Tianxing are all here.

Cheng Hong hooked his feet over a stool and sat on his buttocks, and tapped his palms with a horsewhip: "Yes, it's all here, but I'm looking for you!" Say, what's the doubt? You don't have to ask him today, Pontus himself will give you an explanation? ”

"Governor, these ten taxes and four have not existed since ancient times, even His Majesty does not dare to promulgate the decree of ten taxes and four! Isn't this ......"

Cheng Hong stepped forward with one hand: "There is no need to talk about this, the four ten taxes are set by me, and Your Majesty has given me the right to make temporary decisions, this shipping is a new thing, everything is possible, ten taxes and four are high, but you don't know that this is the protection for you!"

"Oh? I want to hear about it! ”

"You see, you still think it's hard to bear the tax rate of ten taxes and four, if you are a newcomer, can you scare off a lot?

If the tax rate is too low, anyone can come here to get a bowl, this sea is like a piece of cake, the more people eat, the less they will eat.

As a pioneer, you have invested a lot, if someone sees your way to get money, and a swarm of people rushes over, what can you still war?

As soon as the tax rate of ten taxes and four came out, people felt that if they really entered the industry, they were buying a boat and exploring the way, and they would not make any profit at all in ten taxes and four!

This is a kind of protection for you, because Datang has no way to promulgate who can go to sea and who can't! ”

"But if it's ten taxes and four, we won't make money!"

Cheng Hong smiled and shook his head: "Everyone, let's have something to say!" What is going on on this spice island, Pontus knows better than you!

Ten taxes and four are just a little less money, if you don't have ten taxes and four guarantees, you sell the spices all over the Tang Dynasty, if that's the case, you guys, do you think this spice can be so valuable? ”

"This ......"

"We have ten taxes and four, which seems to be a lot, but if we change it to forty percent of spices, do you still think it is too much? If the natives of Spice Island are still there, I know better than you how much money you spend! ”

"This ......"
