Chapter 597: Another New Ding

And Li Su was having fun with the three little guys.

Not to mention that the three little guys have become mud figures, even Li Su's body is full of mud.

Seeing this scene, Qin Mengxin and Wu Meiniang and the other three daughters were funny and moved.

's husband is really too fond of children.

Not only can you play with them in the mud, but you can also play crawling competitions and various games with them.

And, it's fun.

For the next period of time, Li Su, the king of Shu, didn't seem to have anything to do, except to play with the children and play with the children.

During this period, Li Su ordered Shangguan Yi to make a twist and turn and report in detail on the situation of the battle with Nanzhao.

In the twists and turns, Li Su's report is that the terrain of Nanzhao is complicated, and the Tang Dynasty, whether it is a chariot or a cavalry, cannot go deep.

However, Nanzhao never retreated, and the two sides reached a stalemate.

In the land of Nanzhao, how many soldiers and horses can there be?

This is a pretext.

However, with this twist and turn, the emperor could not easily transfer the king of Shu away.

However, Shangguan Yi still had worries in his heart.

"Your Highness, my subordinates think that this is not a long-term solution! We may be able to drag it out this year, but what about next year? How long can we delay? ”

Li Su smiled and said, "Don't worry, my father will have something to do soon, and he won't keep his eyes on Jiannan Dao." ”

Well?

Could it be that something big is going to happen recently?

Shangguan Yi has followed the King of Shu for many years and knows the King of Shu very well.

Since the King of Shu said that something would happen, it would definitely happen.

For the prediction ability of the King of Shu, Shangguan Yi is breathtaking.

……

And the thing during this period of time is the aid to Meng Xuan.

Meng Wei Zhao can be said to be the partner of the King of Shu.

It can even be said that the king of Shu occupies the vanguard of the entire Nanzhao.

But now the development of the edict is too slow.

If he is allowed to develop on his own, I am afraid that he may not be able to develop in ten or eight years.

But Li Su couldn't wait that long.

Li Su gave him a year at most.

With Duan Gongming's ability, he will definitely not be able to do this.

Therefore, in the past two years, Li Su decided to tilt the focus of development towards Nanzhao.

Over the years, the wealth accumulated by the Chinese Commercial Bank, Li Su himself is not very clear about the specific figures.

It can only be said that the country is rich.

It is not very difficult to develop Nanzhao.

Just after Li Su went back, it was like Nanzhao transporting a batch of automated machines.

For example, steam pear harvesters and other equipment.

And Li Su also decided to support the construction of the road.

The Mengzhao has now annexed two tribes, and it can be said that he controls the entire territory of Nanzhao.

The remaining three tribes of Nanzhao are also ready to move in the face of Meng Zhao, who has suddenly grown in strength but is very weak.

The three tribes of them, no matter which one they are, as long as they can swallow the edict in one bite.

It will soon become the largest country in Nanzhao, and as long as they can consolidate the fruits of victory, they can easily unify the whole of Nanzhao.

Therefore, the remaining three tribes have all tentatively launched attacks on the Meng.

However, their attacks were ruthlessly slaughtered by the Tang Chariot.

The sharpness of the Datang chariot made them fearful, and they no longer dared to have the slightest covetousness for Meng Zhao.

However, this also made the remaining three tribes choose to join the group in order to resist the Tang Dynasty.

Even, they are getting closer to Tibet.

Because of the several countries of Nanzhao, some were originally vassal states of Tibet.

Of course, countries need to speak with strength.

The so-called vassal countries are also detached.

When the strength is weak, it is natural to be honestly attached.

But once it is strong, it will immediately get rid of the position of a vassal state.

And now, in order to fight against the Tang Dynasty and the Mengsheng edict, they have to tightly surround Tubo.

All this, Li Su naturally got a report.

However, Li Su actually disdained their behavior of reporting the group.

Even, this is exactly the result that Li Su wants.

If Tubo dares to make a small move, when the time comes, it will be just right to clean up Tubo together.

……

Duan Gongming, the king of Meng's edict, with the help of the Tang Dynasty, annexed the two tribes.

Now, Meng's edict has occupied half of the entire territory of Nanzhao, becoming the largest country in the Nanzhao region.

However, Duan Gongming has been both excited and headache recently.

I am excited that now that the strength of my country has swelled dramatically, and there is a chance to be able to unify the entire Nanzhao, of course I will be excited.

But the headache is that because of the previous war, now Meng Zhao occupies a huge territory.

But they simply don't have that much population.

It is impossible to cultivate large tracts of land.

And they burned the Langqiong edict at the beginning, and now they have to rebuild it.

The more than 20,000 ethnic groups of Langqiong Zhao have burned down their grain and houses, and they all need him to feed them.

Coupled with Datang's 20,000 troops, people stayed to help them.

The military quartermaster of the army must need them to provide for it, right?

In that case, they would have to provide for more than 40,000 people!

Duan Gongming sadly found that their country was running out of stock!

It's hard for them to feed so many people!

It's hard for a good woman to cook without rice!

At this time, Datang provided them with a batch of advanced farming tools free of charge.

It's still the kind that comes with a driver.

Before Duan Gongming, he had coveted which farming tools in Datang had been coveted for a long time, but he had never been able to sell them.

Datang is very strict with these controls, and no one dares to sell them to them.

On top of that, border checks are unusually strict.

Even if they could buy these tools through other channels, they wouldn't be able to transport them to Datang's territory.

And now?

The king of Shu actually supported them for free!

With these advanced farming tools, they are now able to easily plant all their arable land, even though they are sparsely populated.

The rice of Nanzhao was originally harvested once a year, and when it was ripe, wheat was planted.

And now?

The king of Shu directly brought some grain that can be harvested twice a year.

I heard that if the nutrients can keep up, three crops a year will not be a problem!

In this way, the big problem of their lack of food has really been solved!

By the time the rice crop is harvested, they will have enough to eat.

I have to say that the King of Shu in the Tang Dynasty is really interesting.

The heroism of the King of Shu made Duan Gongming feel guilty in his heart.

People treat themselves like this, and they are not sincere enough to the Tang Shu King?

And then, the king of Shu of the Tang Dynasty actually took the initiative to build a road for them free of charge.

And also to help their burned Langqiong Zhao tribe for free.

That's a great favor!

These are all gratuitous!

Such a move not only moved Duan Gongming, but even made him feel uneasy.

This King of Tang Shu, why is he so concerned about our edict?

It's just like my own business, it's the same!

How could he be so good?

However, after Duan Gongming inadvertently saw his daughter with a happy smile on his face beside him, he suddenly realized.

Ooh!

What the King of Shu of the Tang Dynasty did thought was all for Yutong!

No wonder he's so generous!

Hum!

If he wants to marry the daughter of this king, these are all things he should do!

If this was used as a dowry, Duan Gongming even felt a little light.

……

Not long after, Datang's transport vehicles and construction teams rushed to Meng's edict.

Truckloads of raw materials were transported, and of course, some raw materials were taken locally.

And to build roads and rebuild tribes, it naturally requires a lot of small labor.

These small workers naturally have to choose people from the Mengzhao tribe.

The salary given by Datang can also give 20 wages every day.

This kind of treatment stunned the people of Mengxi.

Oh my!

Is the treatment of people actually spicy?

You must know that in their tribe, the wages of small workers are often only two or three cents a day!

That's it, it's hard to find a small job!

And now, the treatment given by Datang is ten times that of their petty workers!

For a while, the people who came to sign up to be small workers were almost crowded with the registration office.

In fact, what they don't know is that in Datang, the salary of a small worker has now risen to fifty yuan a day.

At the beginning, when they paid 20 yuan a day, they thought it was too little!

Unexpectedly, the salary of twenty wen shocked them!

The salary of 20 wen almost made the entire people of Mengwei break their heads in order to snatch the position of a small worker.

With Duan Gongming's full cooperation, everything went smoothly.

Next, the Chinese Commercial Bank opened many stores in Mengchao.

Even Datang Qianzhuang has opened a branch in Mengxi.

In fact, it is still quite a poor place.

The shop is here, the business is very dull, and in fact, it doesn't make much money.

But now, roads are being built.

As long as the road is repaired, the special fruits here can be transported to the outside world.

Although it is relatively poor, the products here are still quite rich.

These shops can buy these properties at a very low price and sell them at a high price.

Of course, more importantly, with these shops, Li Su will be able to control all the information of the entire Mengwei Edict.

……

Soon the time came to September, and the Silla Kingdom suddenly sent an envoy to Datang to ask for help.

It turned out that Baekje and Goryeo had seized more than 40 of their cities, and Silla was a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, the Silla Kingdom hurriedly sent envoys to Datang to pray for assistance.

After learning the news, Li Shimin immediately sent an angel to ask Goryeo to stop using troops.

However, Goryeo did not obey the will of the Tang Emperor at all, and still continued to use troops against Silla.

Li Shimin was very angry and decided to attack Goryeo.

Of course, it's already September, almost October.

Winter is about to begin, and in this weather, there is naturally no way to attack Goryeo.

If Goryeo is disobedient next year, Li Shimin has already decided to attack Goryeo.

……

Yizhou New Town, the festival of the embassy, and the addition of new Ding.

Xu Hui and Liu Zhi gave birth to a son and a daughter respectively.

Xu Hui gave birth to a boy, and Li Su named him Li Rui, nicknamed Congcong.

Liu Zhi gave birth to a daughter, and Li Su named her Li Xiang, nicknamed Jingjing.

Jiedu added a new Ding to the palace, and Li Su was overjoyed.

And Li Su's subordinates also came to say goodbye.

At this time, a little girl, riding a cute giant panda, walked in slowly.

"Panpan, let's go!"

This girl, of course, is Shangguan Wan'er.

This little girl is the most sticky.

If she has nothing to do, she likes to run to the Jiedu Embassy's mansion, as long as Li Su is at home, this little girl goes here almost every day.

And Li Su also likes this little girl very much.

When she is fine, she will also teach her to recite enlightenment readings such as the three-character classic, the thousand-character text, and the surname of the hundred families.

And this little girl is also very smart, a poem, at most three times, she can recite it directly.

Li Su taught her to write, and she could learn it quickly.

And, except when I started to learn to write, the handwriting was crooked, and now the font has become more and more neat.

For such a smart and studious seedling, Li Su couldn't help but cherish his talents.

Now, as long as Li Yu is free, he will spare at least an hour every day to teach Shangguan Wan'er to study.

Now, Jiedu has added Ding to the mansion, and Li Su certainly doesn't have time to teach her.

But such a lively thing, how can there be less of this little girl?

After entering the courtyard, Shangguan Wan'er patted Panpan's head, and Panpan lay down honestly.

After getting off Panpan's body, Shangguan Wan'er also went to see the baby curiously.

Last year, when the three little guys Li Rong, Li Baoyu and Li Haoran were born.

Because Li Su was not at home at the time, Shangguan Wan'er did not come over, nor did she see their newborn appearance, and she always regretted it.

Now that she can see it, she naturally will not let go of this opportunity.

After entering the house, Shangguan Wan'er found that there were many people in the house.

These people are praising the baby's beauty!

"Tsk, look at these eyes, these eyebrows, they are exactly the same as His Highness!"

"That's it, it's so beautiful! Grown up, he's a beautiful man again! ”

And Shangguan Wan'er walked over and glanced at the two little guys.

I couldn't help pouting and said, "It's so ugly, it's wrinkled, like an old man, it's so ugly!" ”

Shangguan Wan'er's words caused everyone to laugh.

Newborn children are all wrinkled, and there is still fetal hair on their faces, so they must not be able to see where to go.

After four or five days, it will be rosy and much better.

When Mrs. Shangguan heard her daughter's words, her face was immediately full of embarrassment.

Hurriedly pulled Shangguan Wan'er and said, "Wan'er, don't talk nonsense. ”

Shangguan Wan'er pouted and said, "Mother, I'm not talking nonsense, it's obviously so ugly!" ”

Hearing Shangguan Wan'er's words, Li Su couldn't help laughing and said, "Wan'er, do you know that newborn children are so ugly?" ”

"When you were born as a child, you were like this!"

Hearing this, Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but raise her small mouth, and said unhappily: "I won't be like that, when I was just born, I was very beautiful!" ”

Mrs. Shangguan couldn't help but smile and said, "Wan'er, what His Highness said is true! When you were born, you were uglier than them! ”

"Wow - I'm not ugly, I'm not ugly!"

As soon as someone said this, Shangguan Wan'er's tears fell down, and she sobbed and cried.

Li Su couldn't help but hurriedly coaxed: "Wan'er, I'm joking with you!" When you were born, you weren't ugly at all, you were beautiful! ”

Shangguan Wan'er had bright teardrops on her cheeks, and she did have a smile on her face, and she couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Big brother, is what you said true?" Didn't you lie to me? ”

Li Su couldn't help but say solemnly: "Of course it's true, think about it, when did the eldest brother lie to you?" ”

Shangguan Wan'er snorted and said, "But, you lied to me just now!" Obviously, when I was born, I wasn't ugly at all, and you lied to me that I was ugly! ”

……

After October, the weather gets colder and colder.

The maple leaves turn red, and in the blink of an eye, the snow drifts away, and before you know it, it is the end of the year again.

And this year's Chinese New Year's Eve, it is even more lively.

Li Rong, Li Baoyu, Li Haoran, the three little guys, are running quite fast now.

During the Chinese New Year, the three little ones were very happy.

Each of them took a colorful windmill and ran around the yard like crazy.

Yes, this is what the New Year should look like!

After the Chinese New Year, after fifteen years, until February, Di Renjie found Li Su again.

Oh!

This time, I don't know what invention this guy has come up with?

Not long after, Di Renjie came to the study.

Li Su couldn't help but smile and asked, "Renjie, I don't know what new products you have researched this time?" ”

Hearing the master's question, Di Renjie did not answer immediately, but smiled slightly, and asked someone to send in a fish tank-sized thing.

Then, Di Renjie tinkered, pressed two buttons, and asked mysteriously, "Master, what did you just say?" I didn't hear you clearly, can you say it again? ”

Well?

Has this guy learned to play tricks?

Li Su frowned slightly, but soon his face showed a thoughtful look.

Li Su couldn't help but smile slightly, and then asked: "Why let the teacher guess, could it be that this is a gramophone?" Can you record what people have said and play it back at any time? ”

Hearing Li Su's words, Di Renjie was directly dumbfounded.

His eyes widened, and he looked at Li Su without blinking.

In Di Renjie's eyes, Li Su saw a fairy.

Li Su smiled slightly, and then asked, "Renjie, why is this reaction?" Could it be that the teacher didn't guess right? ”

Di Renjie couldn't help but say bitterly: "Master, you guessed so right! The question is, how did you guess that? Is this impossible to guess? Master, you can't really be a fairy, right? Can't hide anything from you? ”

This time, Di Renjie was really shocked again.

There was no prior guessing, and a gramophone had never been seen before.

How can you guess at once when you look at it?

In fact, there has never been a phonograph in this world.

But the afterlife has long been there!

Of course, Li Su didn't guess through this.

The phonograph that Di Renjie and the others researched actually has no resemblance to the phonograph of later generations.

It was when Di Renjie was playing tricks that Li Su had this guess.

At that time, this guy was very arrogant.

When asked what he was studying, he didn't say anything, but took out a gramophone and tinkered with it a few times.

Li Su guessed at the time that this guy probably had opened the recording mode and deliberately led himself to speak.

And then play it out and scare yourself.

Then I asked myself, and sure enough, it was the case.

Of course, the premise that can be guessed is that Li Su has seen the gramophone before and knows the principle of the phonograph.

If you don't know beforehand, there's no hint at all.

If you can guess that it's a gramophone, you'll be hell of a thing.

It's no wonder that Di Renjie will treat the master as a fairy.

But soon, Di Renjie reacted.

By the way, I remember the time when I just apprenticed.

The master used the photo printed out by the camera to startle himself.

Didn't you just treat your master as a god at that time?

I guess that's the case now, right?

The master may have used a gramophone a long time ago.

That's right!

Di Renjie actually remembered that when the envoys of the fifteen countries were courting, after the competition was completed.

The envoy of the Tibetan kingdom killed the envoy of another country.

At that time, it was still a case that I investigated, and I found the murderer through my fingerprints at that time.

But because in the Tang law, there is no law on fingerprints.

So the murderer was clearly found, but there was no way to arrest him, because there was not enough evidence.

At that time, it was the master who invited out the soul of the victim and directly scared the murderer.

I remember that at that time, I also regarded my master as a god.

Now that I think about it, where is this inviting ghost.

This is clearly a combination of a camera and a phonograph, and of course, there are many elements that you don't know to create a machine!

Thinking of this, Di Renjie's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but ask Li Su: "Master, did you use the principle of the gramophone in the trial after courting relatives in the fifteen countries?" ”

Hearing Di Renjie's words, Li Su smiled slightly.

This kid is really not stupid, he thought of it.

Li Su couldn't help but nod and said: "Yes, that has the principle of a phonograph, of course, there are still some technologies that you don't know about for the time being." ”

Di Renjie was very greedy, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Master, what kind of technology is it?" Can you teach it to the apprentices? ”

Li Su said helplessly: "That technology is too advanced, with your current level, I'm afraid you won't be able to reach that height within ten years!" ”

After hearing Li Su's words, Di Renjie was very disappointed.

However, he also knew very well that it was definitely not the master who was hiding from himself, it must be that they really couldn't reach that height at the moment.

In fact, this is the case, Li Su used a computer at that time.

Based on the current scientific and technological development of Datang, let alone ten years, Li Su feels that in 20 Chinese New Year's Eve years, he will not be able to manufacture such an advanced computer.

However, cameras and phonographs have already been made, so will movies be far away?
