On the seventh day of the first month of the seventh year of Zhenguan, Xue Yantuo sent an envoy to the court. Then Li Shimin ordered people to make the "Breaking Array Music and Dance Map", renamed "Seven Virtues Dance", and at the same time in Chang'an banquet guests, officials above the third grade and in Jingzhou Mu, and many barbarian chiefs in Xuanwumen jointly enjoyed the dance of "Seven Virtues" and "Nine Virtues".

After six years of hard work, both Li Shimin and the Manchu Dynasty were full of confidence at this time, so in addition to appreciating the song and dance, Li Shimin gave wine to the people of Chang'an on the 23rd and drank for three days.

However, Li Yuanjia is naturally indifferent to these.

In this small world of Luzhou, a few days after the beginning of spring, at the end of February, there was a cold spring, two heavy snows made the temperature that had just warmed up drop suddenly, I don't know how many people can only be bitter next to each other, looking forward to this bad day as soon as possible.

As for the noble king, he is naturally at ease in his own little world.

No matter which room Li Yuanjia appears in, at least three stoves will be lit in advance, and then they will be waited on by a special person to prevent them from being extinguished. In addition to the fact that it may be the only quilt in the whole Tang Dynasty, all kinds of animal skins given by the emperor, the emperor and the imperial concubine will not make Li Yuanjia feel a chill.

"So, reincarnation is a technical job!"

Looking at the little girl Chunyan who was dozing off while tilting her head while taking care of the stove, Li Yuanjia twisted her neck that was a little sore because she had been sitting and writing for a long time, and couldn't help but sigh.

If you are reborn in the body of an ordinary person, how miserable will it be in February of the seventh year of Zhenguan?

Don't overestimate the so-called Zhenguan rule, no matter how brilliant it is, it is more than 600 years of ancient China, even if it is the so-called "solid family" of the people, their living standards are definitely not as good as the ordinary people of later generations, and even far worse - at least this kind of thing is freezing and starving, and the future is quite rare.

That is, those powerful people have a better life, after all, there are too many resources to concentrate.

"What's more, it's so boring!"

After getting up and moving for a while, Li Yuanjia looked at the "Geometric Foundations" that he had just "translated" half of it, and looked up to the sky and sighed!

Look at the days that have forced him to start writing geometry textbooks!

You must know that for a person who has graduated from high school for more than ten years, and the knowledge about geometry can only be written intermittently by desperately recalling, this process is too painful. So after writing for more than ten days in a row, Li Yuanjia squeezed out only more than 70 pages. With an average of four pages a day, and the slower the speed becomes, Li Yuanjia feels that he may not want to finish this book in his life......

"Big ...... King! ”

Perhaps it was Sun Peng's long sigh that woke up Chunyan, and the little girl on duty hurriedly stood up.

I almost fell asleep while serving the king, which was a serious mistake!

Fortunately, Li Yuanjia didn't care at all, nodded and said lightly: "I'm a little hungry, go to Yu Niang's to see if lunch is ready!" ”

"Yes, King!"

Secretly relieved in his heart, Chunyan hurriedly walked out of Li Yuanjia's study. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Han Shan, the housekeeper who came in a hurry, and hurriedly stood sideways and saluted.

"Huh? Why go? ”

"The king wants to eat, I'll go find Yu Niang."

"Well, let's go."

After waving his hand and sending away the spring smoke, Han Shan dusted off the non-existent dust on his body and walked into the door of the study.

Li Yuanjia, who was about to sit down and write for a while, saw Han Shan, immediately straightened up and asked, "How is the situation inside Zhuangzi?" But can anyone be cold and hungry? ”

"Back to the king's words, no."

After the salute, Han Shan replied respectfully: "I asked people to go to three Zhuangzi Tsai to carefully inspect it, because of the heavy snow in the past few days, two of the houses were damaged, and a few people suffered from the wind cold. However, I have someone to help repair the damaged house, and I have also given a decoction for those who have a cold......"

The three Zhuangzi he mentioned belonged to King Yu.

In addition to the Zhitian and the prince's Yongye Field, the imperial concubine and Yu Wenshi and they also purchased a lot of land for Li Yuanjia, adding up to 450,000 mu, almost half of which was in Luzhou. And these lands are cultivated by the farmers on the three villages, so in short, they also belong to Li Yuanjia's "people".

Even bringing Zhuangzi with people is considered Li Yuanjia's private property.

Therefore, Han Shan did not feel strange that the king cared about the situation of the farmers and sent someone to check it, but felt that the master was kind-hearted, and the farmers below were blessed.

"Hoo ......"

After listening to Han Shan's words, Li Yuanjia breathed a sigh of relief.

It is true that he is not a Virgin Mary and Holy Father, but from the perspective of a modern person, if the people in Zhuangzi really freeze to death and frostbite or something, this must be psychologically uncomfortable. Besides, it's just to send someone to check it out, and you don't need Li Yuanjia to go out in person, at most, it's just a dollar or two, why not?

But after thinking about it, Li Yuanjia asked with some curiosity: "By the way, Lao Han, what do farmers usually do in winter?" There shouldn't be much work to do in the field, right? ”

"After the beginning of spring, it's time to prepare for spring ploughing."

After thinking for a while, Han Shan shook his head and said, "But there are so many heavy snowfalls this year, spring plowing must be postponed...... They don't usually have much to do, right? This one...... Ahem, I don't know very well, why don't I ask someone? ”

"Well, ask someone and tell me."

Nodding, Li Yuanjia's eyes narrowed slightly.

In his impression, or in his imagination, the farmers should be relatively idle in winter. Maybe there are some necessary tasks to do at home, such as repairing the house, farm tools, and then collecting manure, repairing the land, etc., but most of the time should be idle?

Or is there a word called "cat winter"?

However, Li Yuanjia was just guessing about this after all, so he asked Han Shan to ask carefully.

"Yes, my lord."

Although he felt a little strange about Li Yuanjia's question, Han Shan naturally nodded and agreed immediately.

After Han Shan left, Li Yuanjia began to walk back and forth in the study, seriously considering his thoughts. With the efforts of the carpenters and blacksmiths in the house in the past six months, Li Yuanjia now has some good things in his hands, such as table and chair packages, coal stoves and briquettes, but it is obviously unrealistic to use them to let farmers have something to do in the winter leisure time.

Carpenters and blacksmiths in this era were all skilled jobs.

Even if Li Yuanjia could force the carpenters and blacksmiths in the palace to teach the peasants the skills, it would not be something that could be learned in a short time. And something like briquettes is too simple to be a long-term solution.

Therefore, if you want to make your own farmers live better, you can only think of ways that are not easy for others to imitate and can be long-term.
