The old man who spoke first nodded, deeply convinced.

Li Shimin, who was sitting on the side of the road not far from the two old men, also nodded and smiled happily.

At this time, it was the autumn harvest ceremony of the imperial court, and after a busy morning, he decided to go out of the fields of the imperial court to see how the autumn harvest of the people was.

So, accompanied by a group of people, Li Shimin drilled out of the field surrounded by the army and quietly came to the two old men not far away.

Li Shimin, who came to the autumn harvest, did not wear fancy clothes, but wore the same linen clothes as the common people, and his hair was tied up casually with a wooden stick, plus his face and hands were all small cuts made when breaking corn, so no one could recognize him as the emperor at all.

After pouring two pots of wine into the thick jar, Li Shimin carried the jar and leaned over.

"Two uncles, do you want to drink a little?"

With wine, Li Shimin strongly inserted into the topic of the two old men.

One of the two old men is surnamed Zhang, and the other is still in the family with Li Shimin.

Zhang Laohan took a sip of wine and said in surprise, "Isn't this the spirits of the world!" Later life, you are enough to lose, the spirits downstairs in the world are what our ordinary people can drink? ”

Li Shimin bowed his head and was taught, "What the uncle said is that I also sent it from a friend, and I don't usually dare to think about it." ”

Well, anyway, it was a takeaway that Leng Feng ordered for civil and military officials for free, and there was nothing wrong with saying that it was delivered.

The opportunity to drink strong liquor was almost non-existent for ordinary people, and a jar of wine was quickly drunk by two old men.

The mouth of the drinker is short, so the two old men can be regarded as knowing everything about some of the questions asked by Li Shimin.

"That's what it looks like, although the family can eat enough now, but they still wear linen clothes, live in mud houses, and look at the clothes worn by big families and merchants, I can't help but envy! When can we live in a concrete house, it would be nice to have heating. ”

Li Shimin nodded, the people's wishes are still so simple, after the food and clothing are solved, it is natural to live.

"Then why don't you let the offspring of your family go to work in the cement workshop? At least the cement workshop builds cement houses for the employees for free. "TV debut

Li Laohan shook his head: "The cement plant is so easy to enter? Now who doesn't know that the industry of Xi Guogong is good for employees, and everyone thinks about such a good thing as they get more money from working a year than farming, but it's too late, and the first to go is already a regular employee, and it will not be changed easily. ”

Hearing Li Laohan say this, Li Shimin couldn't help but look at Leng Feng, who was fiddling with dirt behind him.

Leng Feng covered half of his face, turned his head and said to Li Shimin, "It's useless to look at me, the cement workshop needs so many people, and if it is built again, no one will use it, so a lot of cement will be piled up." So if these people want to work, they have to find a way to do it somewhere else. ”

Leng Feng had to cover half of his face, compared to the mysterious emperor, he was more easily recognized.

When Li Shimin heard Leng Feng say this, he couldn't help but think, the people want more money, it is impossible to do business, they all go to business, who still farms? Therefore, there is only one way to go, but if you work, you have to build a workshop, and what workshop can be expanded now?

Zhang Laohan suddenly smiled and said, "People, it's just not content, obviously having enough food and clothes to wear can't be enjoyed in eight lifetimes, what do you want to live in!" ”

Li Laohan also laughed, "That's it, it's good to have a mud house to live in, and it can't rain!" ”

Listening to the laughter of the two old men, Li Shimin couldn't laugh.

In his opinion, the people's desire to "live well" after they are well fed and clothed is still so simple, and as the emperor, he has the responsibility to think of a way for this.

To the two old men, Li Shimin said, "I still have land over there, so I don't deserve to chat with the two uncles." ”

Looking at Li Shimin, Leng Feng and others who left, Zhang Laohan said, "This posterior is a bit interesting, and he is still a scholar." ”

Li Laohan was surprised: "Look at the tall thin man who followed him, does he look like the Duke of Xiguo?" ”

Zhang Laohan stared at the past with wide eyes, and just happened to see Leng Feng, who turned his head to reveal half of his face when he was talking to the emperor, and nodded, "It's really the Duke of Xiguo!" Who was talking to us just now? ”

Thinking of that possibility, Zhang Laohan and Li Laohan couldn't help but shudder together.

O Emperor! It can only be the emperor! Now I have to blow it to my neighbors when I go home! We chatted with the emperor for a long time, and drank a jar of wine!

After entering the land of the imperial court surrounded by the army, Li Shimin said, "Duke Xiguo, I remember that you said that the change of the country, after the agriculture, is business, but there is still a stratum in the middle, and the stratification you are talking about should be 'work'!" ”

Leng Feng nodded, "That's right, it's work, people want to get rich in the commercial society, in addition to doing business, it's work, but at present, we don't have much industry in Datang." ”

The only things that Datang can call a factory now are the glass workshops and cement workshops under Tianxialou, as well as the salt works and smelters of the imperial court. The rest are petty fights, and they are not at the level of being able to recruit workers at all.

Li Shimin thought for a while and then said, "Let's build a little more, cement is useful, before only the main passes built a cement city wall, the rest of the passes have not, and the grassland of Jingbei Province is not guarded, and it is also good to build a city." ”

The people of the Central Plains are like this, without a city wall, they always feel unsafe.

Although it is nondescript to build a city on the steppe, it is at least somewhat useful to resist the Turks, and Leng Feng does not object to Li Shimin's idea.

Cement is needed to build a city more than a house, and the cement workshop can be expanded at that time.

"In fact, not only the city, but also the paving of cement can be used, just like Chang'an to the world manor."

"Cement paving? That's too much, isn't it? ”

As long as the eldest grandson Wuji hears the topic of spending money, he will come over and interject.

"Don't spend any money, think about it, what do the people need to live? Food, clothing, housing and transportation, after the problem of housing is solved, isn't it a problem of transportation! What's more, cement paving can also promote traffic, which is beneficial. ”

The development of commerce is inseparable from transportation.

The eldest grandson Wuji still said, "No, no, no, it's too wasteful, how many roads in the world are more than 10 million?" If it's all paved, that's an unimaginable number! ”

Li Shimin smiled: "What about the road?" As long as we pave it one year at a time, one day we will be able to pave it, Yugong can move mountains, and we can't pave the road? ”

Fang Xuanling and the others all bowed down to show that they were taught, and only Leng Feng was thinking about other things with his chin propped up.

It seems that the material used for modern road paving is the residue of sand and petroleum extraction, and oil is the current stone paint, if gasoline is extracted on a large scale
