Chapter 707: Beautiful Imagination

Communication is always the best bridge to solve problems.

Li Chengqian, whose status is not threatened, has one good thing, that is, he does not need to rush for quick success and seek performance in the political arena.

Unlike Li Tai, who went around attending literati gatherings and recruiting followers after he arrived in Gangneung City, he only needed to honestly do a good job of the things assigned to him by Li Shimin, and he would be indispensable.

Of course, the current Li Tai doesn't have so many ideas about that position, he participates everywhere, and even holds literary meetings to collect talents, but in fact, Feng Ang taught him to do this.

There's no way, Lingnan lacks such talents! Even the corrupt Confucians of Guozijian promised to go to Lingnan and teach the local people to speak Chinese and write Chinese characters, then they would be valuable to Lingnan.

Moreover, after taking over many of Feng An's industries, as well as more industries to be developed in the future, Li Tai is not worried about Lingnan's financial burden.

He gave these people a high salary, and every scholar who was willing to go had a monthly salary of 50 yuan, all of which were worth the income of the nine-grade officials in the Central Plains, and they also had a commission for the literacy business, teaching a Lingnan common man to write a thousand characters silently, rewarding him with consistent money, teaching more, getting more, and setting no upper limit.

Later, he will also play Li Shimin, applying for the promotion of officials in remote areas, public officials, Lingnan, Yunnan, Liaodong, Anxi, and overseas islands, all of which are on the list, so that these people who are officials in places with more difficult conditions can get more money, which can be regarded as a way to increase people's enthusiasm for taking up posts in remote areas.

This method may not have much effect in the short term, because Datang is developing too fast, there is a shortage of manpower everywhere, and the cultural level has reached a certain level, so it is not difficult to find a more promising errand.

But in the long run, there are many benefits, when the talent is mass-produced, and gradually meets the needs of the country, remote areas, will also become a good choice.

Li Chengqian, who had something to do, had just walked away, and Sun Xiangfu, who continued to work with his wives in the venue, saw Li Tai, who said that the main stadium of the sports conference had become a scene of Gangneung City, and it was built along the edge of Changhu Lake.

Now, those who charter a boat to tour the lake will ask the boatman to row the boat to the main stadium to visit the park, so Li Tai took a group of literati to swim in the lake, and happened to meet him.

"You continue to swim in the lake, you should eat and drink, count this king's, Master Sun is on the shore, this king wants to go to meet him, don't pass it today, let's get together another day!"

"His Royal Highness the King of Wei walks slowly."

Li Tai said goodbye to the scholars on the ship, and soon, under the congratulations of the scholars, he went ashore.

The waterfront side of the main stadium was built like a wharf, and Li Shimin's way of appearance this year was to take a 50,000-stone Baotou steel boat from the lake, as for the decorated bells and whistles, it is now docking at the Jiuyuan River, and the day before the opening ceremony, he will turn into the Changhu Lake from the artificially excavated river channel when the fields were built.

"Did the teacher come to see the teacher?" Li Tai and Sun Xiangfu smiled after seeing the ceremony.

Sun Xiangfu nodded and said, "The matter of training singing and dancing artists, communicate with them on the spot, what, look at your appearance, it seems that you are in a good mood!" ”

Li Tai looked around and saw that there were no outsiders, so he lowered his voice and said, "I have discussed a few big deals with the Persians and the big cannibals before, and the teacher will help me see if it is feasible." ”

"Talk about a big deal with Persia, the big cannibals?"

Sun Xiangfu was a little meaningful, and said, "Tell me about it." ”

Li Tai said with a little pride, "They want the grain produced in our Lingnan Province, and I want the slaves and laborers in their hands."

The Great Cannibals can provide us with the slaves they have taken from the vassals of the Byzantine Empire. Persia, on the other hand, can provide us with 'Tianzhu' laborers, and the whole transaction will be carried by sea, and the grain will be transported over, and people can be brought back, what do you think, teacher? ”

In the past few months in Lingnan Dao, Li Tai has fully felt the shortage of labor, restricting the problem of development, after taking over Feng An's work, he even knew the specific number of workers that Li Ke got from Tanmo this year, that is more than one million people, and there is a batch, the end of the year will arrive, by then, Li Ke's hands, there will be two million workers in Tanmo Dao.

However, the total population of Tamma Road is only six or seven million, and after two million young and strong laborers were recruited to Shannan Province, there are no more young and strong laborers.

And now, because Tianzhu and the southern countries have ceased war, the local area has temporarily stabilized, and there will be no more people fleeing the war like before, and a large number of people will flow into Tammoddao, and the existing population remaining in Tammoddao, according to Li Shimin's meaning, is to let them open up wasteland and farm in the local area, and they can't always rely on the local food of the Tang Dynasty to help them and let them eat white food.

Therefore, the way to recruit workers from Tammo Road, Li Tai has no way out.

No, he hit the idea on Persia, which is adjacent to Tianzhu, and on the head of the big cannibal who captured a large number of slaves in the war of aggression.

"You want to provoke the Persians to war with the Tianzhuans? And to speed up the raids of the Great Cannibal? Li Tai just said the beginning, and Sun Xiangfu guessed his intentions.

Now, the top power level of Datang knows that the war of Datang to unify Eurasia is about to begin, and it seems that Li Tai is also unwilling to be lonely, and wants to show himself in this matter.

Li Tai nodded and replied, "Exactly, the Persians are relatively weak now, but the Tianzhu people who have been fighting abroad for two years in a row and have returned in vain are not much better." The territory of these two countries is nearly thousands of miles apart, and I will give the Persians a bait to let them fight with the Tianzhu people, which will have a lot of benefits for our expansion plan of the Tang Dynasty.

As for the Great Cannibals, they are just like the Turkic people in the north before, although they are fierce, but the necessary survival materials are very scarce, which is why they have always maintained foreign aggression, they are desperate to get our food, spirits, clothing, medicine, etc.

So, I made it a little clear, and Abu Bakr gave me a promise very eagerly, a price, a good deal, that the slaves, who kept the grain, and the gold and silver that they had robbed, left in their hands, could not be eaten, and could not be clothed, and they could give it to us.

We can exchange a large amount of slaves from them from the vassals of the Byzantine Empire, as well as gold and silver treasures, for the development and expansion of our output, which I think is very cost-effective. ”

"Hehe, if your idea is combined with some of Cheng Qian's ideas, it may really have some effect, but to do this kind of big trade with a country, it must be played to your father, and whether it can be approved depends on his strategic arrangement." Sun Xiangfu smiled slightly.

His method is actually the same as what Li Chengqian just said, except that Li Chengqian set his goal in Central Asia, and he wanted to target the most powerful Byzantine Empire, while Li Tai's focus was on South Asia, and his goal was two empires that were relatively weak and had fatal shortcomings.

If Li Shimin knew that his two adult sons-in-law were trying their best to work hard to achieve great unification, he was afraid that he would be very relieved in his heart, at least, they were not mediocre and incompetent.

As long as Sun Xiangfu didn't object, Li Tai felt that this thing could be done, so after chatting a few words, he went to the dock and went directly to Jiuyuan County.

At dinnertime, Sun Xiangfu returned to the villa with the three daughters, as soon as he entered the house, Uncle De hugged a lot of invitations, everyone now knows that Sun Xiangfu has a festival in his hand that passes through the world, you can go anywhere, gather the people, open a civil education class, and develop the planting industry, the meaning of these invitations, Sun Xiangfu naturally understands, and the officials all want to have higher farming skills and greater output for the people under their rule.

After looking at the invitations sent by those people a little, Sun Xiangfu took out one of the invitations from Concubine Cheng's concubine, and handed it back to Uncle Dedao, "Send people to each family to say, how to develop the planting industry, I already have a sequential plan here, so that they don't worry, there will be arrangements, if you have a banquet, I can't eat so many family meals with one mouth, and when I go to their rule later, they will entertain me again!" ”

Uncle De retreated after he got down, and Sun Xiangfu, who was walking towards the dining room, said to Yu Xiu'er and the three daughters who had changed back into their home clothes, "After planning the sports conference for your husband, start a long-distance trip, you are all free!" ”

"Long journey? Where to go? Yu Xiu'er picked up the soup bowl and said while drinking the tea soup that protected her throat.

"Go to all the states and counties in the country, so that all the mountains and rivers of our Datang will become beautiful and colorful, all the rivers will become docile and peaceful, all the houses will become warm and comfortable, all the fields will become high-yield and bumper, all the children will be able to learn advanced knowledge, and all the people will be full of happy smiles······"

"Won't that take a long time?" Sun Xiangfu, who was imagining himself, was interrupted by Li Xiangdie.

"Uh, yes! It could take years. Sun Xiangfu touched his nose and said.

"Wouldn't that bring clothes for the seasons?" Yao Hongsleeve took over and asked.

"Yes, the climate is different across the country, we should be prepared." Sun Xiangfu replied again.

"What about the kids? Do you want to bring it? Yu Xiu'er put down the soup bowl and said.

"Bring the little ones! Big, let them continue to go to school! Sun Xiangfu thought about it for a moment and replied.

"Then the concubine thinks about Jing'er, what should I do with them?" Yu Xiu'er said again.

Sun Xiangfu replied, "Then take the time to come back and have a look!" Anyway, our Datang car and ship are so fast. ”

······

I didn't expect that a single imaginary speech would cause so many questions, and Sun Xiangfu's dinner was all eaten in the third daughter's question.

After the meal, seeing that the three girls who had been bathed were chatting in the master bedroom, Sun Xiangfu hurriedly beckoned Uncle De and asked, "This villa has a study!" ”

Uncle De nodded and replied, "Yes, yes." ”

Sun Xiangfu said happily, "Then hurry up and hold the lamp, I have some things to write late tonight, the ladies are busy all day and tired, you can remind them to rest early after a while." ”

"Well, this, the old slave knows." Uncle De's expression was a little unnatural, but he complained in his heart, "Don't you plan to have sex with that lady tonight?" ’

Therefore, half an hour later, there was a burst of laughter from the three girls in Yu Xiu'er's room, but Sun Xiangfu, who was very aggrieved in the study, gritted his teeth and complained in his heart, "You are not allowed to bully too many people." ”
