Chapter 334: Making a Fortune and Becoming Well-off (Second Shift and Day Change)
Li Su and Shen Wei, before they walked out of the courtyard, heard the sound of the door opening from behind.
When the two turned around, they saw Lu Zhaolin holding a long sword and staggering out of the study, and there were drops of blood dripping from the long sword.
Li Su and Shen Wei glanced at each other and nodded slightly.
Li Su stepped forward and patted Lu Zhaolin on the shoulder.
When!
The long sword in Lu Zhaolin's hand fell to the ground unconsciously.
Li Su couldn't help but say, "Let's go, I'll drink with you today." ”
Lu Zhaolin nodded and walked out with Li Su.
On that day, Lu Zhaolin was very drunk and was carried back to the room.
Early in the morning of the second day, someone suddenly came to report: "Qiyu Dadu, assassinated Shi Linjue and committed suicide in prison." ”
After reporting the news, the official lowered his head deeply, not daring to look at Li Su's eyes.
Under their watch, Thorn Shi Lin Jue actually committed suicide or even was killed, which was their serious dereliction of duty.
If the Metropolitan Governors really want to pursue it, all their jailers will be convicted.
Even, there is a possibility of being beheaded.
However, Li Su was silent for a long time and then said, "Okay, the governor of Pontus knows, you go down!" ”
"Yes, Grand Duke!"
After the jailer retreated, he unconsciously felt cold all over, and his body was already soaked in cold sweat.
This is obviously a big deal, and this jailer has even prepared for the worst.
But for some reason, the Metropolitan Governor didn't even pursue their intentions.
For them, it was a bonus.
……
For Li Su, it was predictable that Lin Jue would commit suicide in prison.
Of course, Li Su definitely didn't believe that Lin Jue committed suicide.
Lin Jue's death is inevitably inseparable from the forces behind him.
Yesterday, even he was assassinated by assassins, let alone Lin Jue?
In fact, if Li Su really wants to protect Lin Jue, it is not impossible to protect it.
It's just that after protecting Lin Jue, he also has to face a lot of trouble.
Now playing with the forces behind Lin Jue is actually not in line with his current development goals.
In that case, let them get rid of Lin Jue.
When the matter came to Lin Jue's place, it came to an abrupt end.
Next, it is to vigorously develop Yizhou.
……
On the same day, Li Su ordered someone to find Wang Heng and teach him the technology of papermaking.
Of course, in fact, Li Su's papermaking technology in Chang'an is mainly because of the machine.
And this time, Li Su also exchanged a machine that was the same as in Chang'an and gave it to the Wang family.
At the same time, the manufacturing process of movable type printing was also passed on to the Wang family.
After obtaining these two techniques, Wang Heng was like a treasure, and immediately sealed these two technologies secretly.
At the same time, someone was sent to transport the paper machine.
On the same day, the factory was built, the raw materials for papermaking were purchased, and the papermaking was prepared.
……
Li Su and Changshi Guanyi are discussing the future development of Yizhou.
The development strategy given by Shangguan Yi is to attach importance to water conservancy, persuade agriculture and mulberry classes, distinguish punishments, and educate the people.
Yizhou has the advantage of Jiangyan, and most of the fertile land can be irrigated.
However, these fertile fields are basically concentrated in the hands of the big families, and the fertile fields that are really in the hands of the people are only 12/12.
Moreover, at that time, even the use of Dujiangyan could not be really utilized.
The development method given by Shangguan Yi was indeed an effective method at that time.
However, in Yizhou, if you can only do this, it is still far from enough.
The most serious problem facing Yizhou is, in the final analysis, actually a land problem.
Actually, what about Yizhou?
At this time, the entire Datang is facing such a problem.
The land distributed to the people by the Tang Dynasty was divided into Yongye Field and Kou Field.
In Datang, men over the age of 18 will be granted 80 acres of land and 20 acres of Yongye field.
After the death of a person, the land is to be returned to the imperial court.
However, Yongye Tian does not need to be returned.
In addition, the system at that time did not strictly manage the Yongye field and the mouth field, and it was possible to teach and receive it privately.
This has brought great convenience to land annexation.
At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, because the war had just passed and the population was sparse, the imperial court had a large amount of land, which was enough to support the distribution of Yongye fields.
However, with the pacification of the war, the population increased dramatically, and the land was not enough to support it because of the principle that Yongye fields were only divided and not harvested.
And then came the problem of serious land annexation.
The fall of the Tang Dynasty was inextricably linked to the collapse of the land system.
In fact, in ancient China, the vast majority of dynasties collapsed, which was related to the collapse of the land system and the insufficient productivity to feed the population at that time.
Of course, in the early Tang Dynasty, this contradiction did not manifest itself.
But obviously, it's like a cancer growing on the body.
If it is not removed, sooner or later the lesion will erupt and it will kill people.
The problem with Yizhou is that because Yizhou is located in a remote area, the land annexation in Yizhou came earlier and more violently than other places.
If the people do not have enough fertile land, it will be difficult for them to live a prosperous life.
So, first of all, we must solve the problem of the field.
And if you want to solve the problem of the field, you can only do it to the family.
The family in Yizhou, the most disobedient, and the family with the most bottom line, is the Zhao family.
In the previous time, the Zhao family also opposed him many times.
Then, this time, Li Susu decided to go under the knife to the Zhao family.
At that time, the land seized from the Zhao family can be contracted to the people to cultivate.
There is another problem that restricts the development of Yizhou, that is, the road problem.
It is difficult to go to Shu and it is difficult to go to the sky.
Because the roads are difficult, even if there is a good harvest, they will not be able to transport it.
Outside goods should not be transported in.
The traffic problem will seriously hinder the development of Yizhou.
What Li Su wants is not just to let the people of Yizhou eat and drink.
It is to let the people of Yizhou live a well-off life.
In order to make the people of Yizhou rich and well-off, we must first solve the problem of roads.
"If you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and you must open up a road from Yizhou to Chang'an."
Regarding this idea put forward by Li Su, Shangguan Yi seemed difficult to understand and disagreed.
But this is not to blame Shangguanyi.
This creed, which was enshrined as a golden rule in later generations, does not have much market in Datang.
It's normal that Shangguan Yi can't understand it.
Moreover, wanting to open up a road to the outside world is also an unrealistic thing for the current Yizhou.
Shangguan Yi couldn't help but say: "Your Highness, the road from Yizhou to Chang'an, based on the current economic conditions and current situation of Yizhou, will take at least fifty years to build. ”
Well, what Shangguan Yi said doesn't seem to be wrong.
However, Li Su said meaningfully: "It's very simple, since it is difficult for us to build this road, then simply, let these families with five surnames and seven wang help us build this road." ”
