Li Shimin and several of his concubines dragged their sweaty bodies back, and there are some things that you can only know the fun when you participate in them, which is why the aunts and uncles of later generations are so keen on this activity.

After bathing, Li Shimin slept a very comfortable night's sleep, singing and dancing, it was really the best exercise to relieve stress, the next morning, the refreshed Li Shimin after breakfast, put on makeup, and the eldest grandson Chun went to Jiuyuan County.

Empress Eldest Sun asked Yu Xiu'er to go to the pond outside the city to enjoy the lotus flowers, how could she allow a dance to only learn half and give up!

It is said that the lotus pond here is not like those small ponds in Guanzhong, and its scale is most appropriately described as 'infinite blue lotus leaves'. It just so happened that she could experience the artistic conception in the song and dance last night.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to take a look at the livelihood here? If you go to the county office, I'm afraid that the people of the entire county will know that you are here. ”

After all, Jiuyuan County is not big, go in any direction, the straight-line distance is only dozens of miles, usually a government order, issued in the morning, at the latest in the afternoon, will be conveyed to the subordinate towns, and, every morning, in front of the county yamen is the most lively place, because, here will be posted the latest public notices and announcements.

"Sun Zhengming has always spared no effort to enrich the people, so I don't need to look at the people's livelihood in Jiuyuan County to know, it will only be better than what I see, and I have a long-term plan. As for the news of my arrival in Jiuyuan County, is Sun Dali not as good as Yu Zhen to do it? ”

"That's right."

Eldest Sun Chun nodded, then remembered those textbooks, and said, "Jiuyuan County learns those textbooks, the chief manager has seen them before, because of their daily expenses, learning materials, etc., all of which are provided by the Jiuyuan Chamber of Commerce, therefore, for its teaching content, the chief manager does not make many restrictions, if you think there is a problem, the minister can immediately issue an order, let Sun County order urge the county school to revise." ”

Hearing this, Li Shimin shook his head and said, "After I read the textbooks learned in Jiuyuan County last night, I felt a lot, and in the future, there will be a lot of powerful talents here because of its unique education methods.

However, this is a different kind of education from Confucianism, which is mainly based on ideology, but a new doctrine that uses part of Confucianism as the foundation, but pays more attention to making the survival ability of all ordinary people in this world stronger.

This kind of doctrine is not just a faint prototype, once it erupts, it may push my Datang to a higher peak, I want to go to Jiuyuan County, just to see if the system here can help me manage a larger and more complex country in the future. ”

The reason why Li Tang was able to stand out from the many rebel armies was because of its military strength? Definitely not.

At that time, there were more separatist forces with stronger military strength than Li Tang, but they were ultimately defeated by Li Tang, because Li Tang's political ability was stronger than all other separatist forces, which could help Li Tang gather many talents with vision and political ambitions, the popular will of the people and other war capital.

This is also the reason why during the Three Kingdoms period, the heroes rose together, but only Cao Cao became stronger and stronger in repeated failures.

Therefore, Li Tang, who has created an excellent political system and won the hearts of the people, has won the world, and therefore, after Li Shimin came to power, he has always paid more attention to internal governance, and the more capable ministers have all gathered in the Li Tang court.

He understands that if the country is not well governed, no matter how big the territory is, no matter how strong the military is, it will eventually be defeated, so after he took the throne, Sun Xiangfu or other ministers proposed to him a series of light taxes, free from forced labor, he all agreed with it, and implemented it, and to this day, the effect has been revealed, but these methods used in the past have almost come to an end.

For example, forced labor has now been completely exempted, the poll tax has also been completely exempted, and in the next few years, even the land tax will be completely exempted.

Perhaps in the eyes of most people, the state has done it to the extreme.

However, Li Shimin doesn't think so, because Jiuyuan County's free medical care, free education, and free old-age security have come out, and Li Shimin can't guess what welfare policies they have behind them.

It can be seen that Datang is still far from the extreme, and he still needs to learn and raise his own pattern higher.

The biggest difference between a capable person and a mediocre person is that he knows what he should learn and what he should do, and they will learn it as quickly and best as they can and do it well.

Li Shimin is a very capable person, so he is unwilling to delay more.

Not long after, he has come to the gate of the county government, outside the gate here, there are no unicorns, lions and other imposing stone carvings, but the left and right side of the public notice board.

Regarding this kind of public announcement system, the eldest grandson Wuji once told Li Shimin in detail in the recital, how many benefits there are, Li Shimin knows very well, and he wants to take a look at the real situation here through the daily work of Jiuyuan County today.

The first situation is that there are so many people in Jiuyuan County who will see the announcement, although Li Shimin came late and did not squeeze into the front row, but he can clearly see what is posted on it, it is all some tables with numbers written on them, this novel counting and counting method, the imperial court has only gradually begun to use it in the past two years, and those who know how to make and read tables can basically be in Chang'an, or Weinan, and are qualified for many positions.

As an emperor, naturally there is no need to squeeze in the crowd for these data that he can see at any time, seeing that the eldest Sun Chun was about to speak, Li Shimin took the first step and said, "Remember, just call me master." ”

Hearing this, Changsun Chun knew that he still didn't want to reveal his identity, so he had to watch outside the yamen.

Li Shimin picked a bulletin board where fewer people gathered, and stepped forward to look at it.

I saw that there was a big "news" written on the top of the head, and the following content was 'the output of fish goods in the spring is more abundant, Jiuyuan River Wharf every two days, there are fish collectors and sellers to collect fish, more than two catties of scale fish, two pennies a catty, loach regardless of size, five wen a catty, yellow eel half a catty or less than eight wen, half a catty or more than ten wen, to live not to die. ’

The lotus root belt enters the peak production period, and there are traders at the Jiuyuan River Wharf every hour to buy an hour, two cents and a catty, and only the fresh goods from the pond within five hours······

After reading the whole page of the news column, there are at least dozens of messages, all of which record similar appearances, Li Shimin sighed in his heart, I am afraid that the county government in the whole world, only Jiuyuan County, will find a way to help the people under the rule of the people to better convert the output into economic value, just by looking at the news of this news column, he knows that the people under the rule of Jiuyuan County, as long as they have land and output, it is impossible to be poor.

Then, Li Shimin saw a bulletin board next to him, and the header on it said "Lost and found".

There are also dozens of articles on it, money bags, sachets, clothes, jade pendants, and even children, Li Shimin hasn't finished reading it yet! Inside the yamen, there was a young couple who came out of it with a little man of three or four years old, and the young couple thanked the officials who sent them out, and then left with their children.

It turned out that when they went to the vegetable market to sell vegetables in the morning, the business was too good and they didn't pay attention to the children, which caused the little man playing in the market to be crowded into another street by the crowd, lost his way, and the little boy who couldn't find his parents cried, and was immediately discovered by the inspector in the market and brought back to the yamen.

Later, the parents who reacted went to the yamen to report the case, and just learned that there were lost children here, and it was their children, so they went through the formalities and took them back.

Similar things, the county will appear every two or three days, even, there are several cases in one night, sometimes a big family comes out to dance square dance, take a walk, many people bring too many children, can't take care of them, it's easy to get lost, however, there are similar things, as long as they adults go to the yamen as soon as possible to report the case, they can basically bring the children back, dozens of patrolmen in the yamen, is to do these security work.

Sure enough, after the couple left, the official wrote the words 'closed' after the message on the bulletin board.

Li Shimin knew that these officials must have a set of methods to distinguish the lost owners, but he was very curious about the public security situation in Jiuyuan County, where the personnel were so dense, so he opened his mouth and said to the officials, "I am a merchant from other places, and I want to come to your Jiuyuan County to do business, I don't know, what is your local security?" ”

Hearing this, the official gave a cordial smile and said, "Then it goes without saying, the public security of our Jiuyuan County, looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, is also the best, do you see, over there, it is the public notice board of the county court's judgment, do you know how long they haven't held a trial?" It's been more than three months, that is, more than three months ago, it was also two businessmen from other places, who had a dispute because of something, got into a fight, and were sent to our county court for trial, so they found something to do, we are locals in Jiuyuan County, and we will never be traitors and criminals, and we will provoke trouble, so ah! Their bulletin board hasn't been updated for more than three months. ”

More than three months ago, it was before the Spring Festival, that is to say, since the beginning of the entire seventh year of Zhenguan, counting outsiders, so far, there has not been a single case of public security crime here, this is 30,000 households, more than 100,000 people in the county! The number of public security cases can be kept at zero for more than three months, that's not looking at Datang, even if you look at the world, that's the best!

"How is this possible!"

Li Shimin subconsciously said, the official was not happy, and said, "Our local fellows, are planning to live here for generations, usually look down and don't look up, even when they quarrel and blush, foreign merchants, we are to receive them with a service mentality, naturally there will be no conflict with them, just like a businessman from other places like you, if you really want to do business in this county, then, in the county office, there must be a cup of good tea for you!" Our yamen can have a special department to receive foreign merchants, you want to receive, sell, open a shop, you can talk to them, they will definitely be able to provide you with some help, how about it? Would you like to come with me and have a look? ”

Speaking of this, Li Shimin finally knew how the commercial news on the news board came from, I am afraid that this so-called department responsible for receiving foreign businessmen communicated with those foreign businessmen to finalize, but I don't know if there is any insider trading in this, so that the officials under the government can be corrupt and bend the law, but they can take this opportunity to find out.

It was just right that he could enter the yamen without revealing his identity, so he nodded, and took the eldest grandson Chun, who also did not show his identity, and two guards into the county yamen together.
