Chapter 312: Hard to Choose

Beans, also known as soybeans, have been cultivated in China for thousands of years and are one of the native grains in China.

Needless to say, the nutritional value of beans is needless to say, but so far the development of beans is still very slow, and it is more used as feed, which is a necessity for feeding war horses.

It's not that people don't eat it, Liu An, the king of Huainan in the Han Dynasty, invented tofu, but the taste of tofu is very poor and it is difficult to eat.

Although it has been improved by technology for thousands of years, it is still not very tasty.

A grain that cannot be used as a staple food, the people's enthusiasm for planting is not high, and there is no scientific and systematic observation and research, so that most people do not know that planting beans can help restore the fertility of the land.

In addition, another problem in China is that the people's rations are too simple, and in summer they can have some vegetables, but in winter, it is often a bowl of staple food, rice is a luxury in the north, more millet, and wheat that takes a lot of effort.

Eating is not an easy thing, women almost every day when they open their eyes, the first thing is to toss and eat, at this time the food stored at home is not shelled, and without the help of mechanical equipment, they can only rely on manpower to solve these problems, basically eat on the same day, do it on the same day, and then the whole day passes.

The overall backwardness of the productive forces is the main reason for this situation, but Li Yuanjing can only express his helplessness in this regard, and he has no better solution.

"Again, I propose to set up schools in various counties across the country as soon as possible, reduce the cost, and attract more poor families to come to study, and the way out is not only to become an official in the court, but also to learn various skills!" Li Yuanjing suggested again.

He has suggested this question no less than three times, but each time he is either directly called back, or dies without a problem, as a prince, what can he do?

"It's not that easy!" Li Shimin shook his head.

"If you don't do it, you will never be able to, only if you do it can you have hope!" Li Yuanjing sighed speechlessly, and then said: "After the fleet is built, I plan to go to sea to find a fiefdom, and it is basically foreseeable that within three or five years, there will inevitably be the first batch of family lords who will leave the Tang Dynasty, what about these vacancies?" Even if the imperial court can reluctantly fill this hole, what about those who left?

The background of these people is no worse than that of the imperial court, and once they have their own feudal country, they will be even more crazy to strengthen themselves, if the imperial court does not take new measures to counteract, maybe a hundred years later, with the strength of the imperial court, it will not be able to continue to maintain the status quo. ”

"Then what do you think I'm going to do? The resistance encountered in setting up a school is not at all what you can imagine, not only those family gates, but almost all the literati in the world will become this resistance, the court does not move, and if it moves, it may cause greater hidden dangers! Li Shimin said with some confusion.

Knowledge is always in the hands of a few, which helps them plan for the future.

Although the people of the world are also divided into countless factions, but in the face of some big problems, they are the same faction, setting up a school, and vigorously cultivating the children of the poor family, which is a great thing for the world, but for the imperial court, it may not be.

These poor children will inevitably squeeze their living space in the future, and in this already fiercely competitive officialdom, the battlefield will once again be more chaotic, no one wants to increase their own difficulty, and no one wants to be a small county commander for the rest of their lives.

In these respects, even if you become prime minister, in this circle, you are the one who is excluded, which is a class antagonism.

Again, what will the court teach them? Will they be ill-intentioned if they are taught?

It is not difficult for ordinary people to rebel or something, and it is not difficult for the court to suppress it, but if everyone is educated and understands strategy, it is not certain who will suppress whom at that time.

In fact, the policy of fooling the people has always existed, even in later countries, it also exists, but after the baptism of the times, this policy has evolved to the 3.0 era.

Li Yuanjing pouted, did not continue to speak, but chose to compromise: "I just make a suggestion, whether to adopt it or not, it is up to the imperial brother to decide!" During this time, the minister's energy will be focused on fertilizer, and he is talking about solving this problem first. ”

In fact, sometimes it is not a good thing, and without the courage to break the boat, it is unlikely to get better results.

After being the emperor for a few years, Li Shimin's sharpness has gradually disappeared, replaced by compromise, stability, and a more radical way of speaking, that is, looking ahead and looking ahead.

Of course, there are many aspects to consider, and it is not surprising that there is such a change, after all, the emperor is no one else, and one of his decisions will affect the future of a country.

"You say, is there really so much territory overseas to house them?" Li Shimin no longer takes this issue seriously.

"Yes! I can even guarantee that I will find all the places where the family can be placed within two years, so the royal brother still has to be prepared in this regard. Li Yuanjing nodded in response with certainty.

During this period, most of the overseas territories were in the undeveloped stage, not to mention the fact that the island of Kyushu in the country of the devils, that is, the islands in the southern part of the country where many Japanese pirates were hidden, although they were discovered, but they were not developed.

First, there is an ongoing war within the Japanese state, but the population is insufficient, and the island cannot be fully developed, so how can it have the energy to go to other places?

And Hokkaido is even more terrifying, the Japanese people directly abandoned there, there is no intention of landing at all, it is too cold in winter, people will not be able to stand it.

In addition, the aborigines of the Philippines are still a group of indigenous people, and they have not spread to the whole island, Malay and other places are full of uninhabited large islands, or only a small number of indigenous islands, not to mention Australia, New Zealand and other islands that have no people.

If the imperial court is really not afraid of big things, Australia alone is enough to settle these families, and it is also beneficial to place them on a large island, what if one day they fight themselves? As long as the imperial court ensures that no one side is wiped out, it can maintain this state forever, which is the best way to let them consume internally.

Of course, Li Yuanjing is still thinking about Australia and the Americas, both have their own advantages and disadvantages, anyway, he is a little bad at the moment.

"Two years ......" Li Shimin looked into the distance slightly, and found that in a few years of operation, the country began to be closed, and if it was operated properly, Datang would have a buffer period of ten to twenty years.

Although it seems not short, at the national level, it is not long, especially in terms of talents, 20 years may be able to fill these holes, or may not......
