Li Shimin according to the formula submitted by Feng Daiwen, let the scientific research institute conduct experiments, the wheat powder, after frying, add frosting sugar, goat milk powder, lard, dressed as a block, when needed, brew it with boiling water, it can be eaten, although the taste is not good, a little weird, but it makes people physically strong. Whether it is used as military rations or food, it is excellent.

Dry noodles, directly fried in oil, simple instant noodles come out, the same boiling water, plus salt, is a cooked food, and the most important thing is that it is easy to preserve, transport.

Cooked food, at least better than direct delivery of wheat.

After discussion, Li Shimin issued an order to establish an instant noodle workshop in Xianglin County (Linyi), and at the same time increase the transportation to Tianzhu in exchange for Tianzhu's grain, gold and silver.

Supply points have been established in the South China Sea, and it is very convenient to travel back and forth.

Now Lingnan is already a very rich place, especially Jiaozhou, Guangzhou, Jiaozhou is the largest population concentration, but also the largest production base of grain, canned fruits, the largest, more saltworks, also here, there are shipyards, although steam ships appeared, but wooden boats have not stopped making.

Now there are more than 500 ships from Lingnan to Nanyang, Linyi, Jiangnan, Chang'an, Liaoxi, and Wadao Road, and it can be said that there are ships coming and going every day.

Guangzhou is the port established by this, and it is also one of the two major sugar production bases, the other one is in the south of the Yangtze River.

There are more than 1,000 special fish-fighting boats made by Lingnan, and now it can be said that the people who can ride the boat without dizziness are all recruited by the fleet, sailors and sailors, transport sailors, and fish-fighting sailors, all of whom need to recruit a large number of people.

Now the fish caught every year by the Bohai Bay, Lingnan and South China Sea in western Liaoning has been comparable to the grain output of a state road, which has enriched the lives of the people and allowed the people who have surplus money now to eat some seafood.

Lingnan artificially cultured pearls, kelp technology has been very mature, but the output is not large, but also as a Lingnan characteristic, has not been announced, this is also because of the output.

The output is not high, and the people are not as good as farming, and if the quantity is too large, the price will not be able to sell, which is common sense, and now as a Lingnan feature, it is a little more expensive, which is acceptable to everyone, and it is also to let the local people have more income.

Jiangnan finally showed its potential, the three crops of rice were fully rolled out, every household had surplus grain, fruits, vegetables, with the seeds provided by the government, the front and back of the house were planted, and poultry breeding, especially chickens, ducks and geese, every household had a lot.

Professional farmers were also born from this, a small landlord, originally only a few dozen acres of land, a few tenants, now in accordance with the requirements of the government, the tenants are released, bought more than ten captives, hired a few Tang people, after planting three crops of rice, fruits, vegetables, found that there is too much food, a year of output, after paying taxes, there is a large amount of surplus, completely enough for a large family to eat for two or three years, and next year will increase, can not help but appear happy troubles.

Originally, I wanted to sell the surplus grain for money, but due to the bumper harvest, the price of grain in the market has dropped a lot, and I feel sad to sell it.

Maybe you will say that the price is lower, why don't you sell it, the government has been buying, this is also because the people are poor, and finally have a surplus of grain, and they are willing to sell it, pay taxes, and save the surplus.

Of course, it will not be buying, although the government is buying, but the price is higher than the market price, and the inspection is strict.

As for the merchants, although they are also buying, but now the harvest is of course to suppress the price, and now the merchants prefer to buy other valuable items, for food, the price is not high, and the transportation is troublesome, there are very few people to buy, because now Datang is not allowed to sell grain in the country at all, and it is stricter than iron control.

So this small landlord named Zhu Youcai, on an idea, began to raise a large number of poultry, after hearing that there is a mountain villa in Chang'an, he deliberately spent half a year, went to study, and after coming back, hired a few Turks.

Taking advantage of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, a small river was drained, and along his land, there was a three-mile long road, all of which were raised with fish, lotus roots, ducks, and geese.

After three years of development, there are now tens of thousands of ducks and thousands of geese, which are still increasing every year, and have already become a well-known breeder.

Under his leadership, several nearby villages have followed the study, and now, Zhu Youcai has also established a workshop, making duck eggs and goose eggs into preserved eggs, and meat into cured meat, which is exported to Nanyang, and now there are special foreign businessmen every month, come to buy duck feathers, goose feathers, these are the best materials for making down jackets.

Now in winter, the royal family and nobles no longer like to wear cotton clothes, underwear made of cashmere, down jackets made of duck down, and coats made of high-quality fur pins, which are the symbols of status.

Woolen and cotton clothes are the favorite of the common people, and as for the inferior cotton clothes, they are all worn by prisoners.

The structure of western Liaoning is relatively simple, and the fishery, coal and iron ore in the port are now spread to the agricultural seed cultivation base in Youzhou.

Grain varieties in western Liaoning, unless they are new varieties, are exchanged in a ratio of one to two, and the old varieties are all one to ten every year, one pound of grain seeds, and ten pounds of refined grain, not everyone can exchange them, almost all of them are exclusive to the family, and the people are using the seeds left in the first year.

After more than four years of continuous cultivation, perhaps because of the cold climate in western Liaoning, Cui Ping and his people actually made cold-resistant winter wheat. It is planted before the winter of the first year, and it matures at the end of May of the following year.

Although the growing cycle has become longer, it is more likely to make use of the vacant land during the winter months, and after harvesting, it is possible to plant a new season of beans.

Beans not only do not grab the land, but help the land to be fertile, and most importantly, the winter wheat yield is not reduced, and the taste is slightly better and stronger.

After Ma Zhou wrote to Li Shimin, Cui Ping became the first person to be named a marquis for agriculture, and the title - Nonghou, it can be said that a simple title can make him famous in history.

After the Tang Dynasty occupied the new city, it only strengthened its defense, and did not attack Goguryeo, but it still made Goguryeo choke in the throat, uncomfortable, and did not dare to take the initiative to attack, for fear of causing the anger of the Tang Dynasty.

Yuan Taizuo finally listened to Yizhi Wende's suggestion and asked Yang Wanchun to preside over the first-line defense of Liaodong City, while Yuangai Suwen retreated to Anshi City as the second line of defense, and it was also convenient to support the front and contact the rear.
