Chapter 122: Painting bread to satisfy hunger

Li Yuan took a sip of tea and joked, "Really think I'm an old fool?" I personally went to inspect the reclamation of Huguang, and privately asked medical students to measure that there were probably more than 3,000 wastelands.

But the folds don't even add up to a third.

Some people are trying their best to catch fish, and they just drink soup, but who knows that they want to take the pot away, is my temper too good? ”

Li Yuan threw the fold to the ground, his face furious.

Chen Tingshi immediately knelt on the ground, looking flustered, and began to curse these bastards who ate meat and didn't spit out bones.

Their Yingchuan Chen clan was based on Yingchuan County, and later traveled south, but most of the industries were also in Jiangxi Dongdao, that is, Jiangsu.

Although this large-scale reclamation of wasteland has taken some advantage, it is definitely not so blatant.

"Your Majesty, the minister will go to investigate strictly, see who is so ignorant!" Chen Tingshi looked up and said tentatively.

"But I'm not that unreasonable." Li Yuan's tense face relaxed, and he smiled.

"It's just"

Li Yuan's words changed, and he pointed to the map behind him and said: "Chen Thorn Shi Zhen hopes that you can understand that I don't allow anyone to touch the cake of Huguang, even if you cut the sesame seeds, but the land near Annan Province, I will not hesitate to reward it to various families." ”

He pointed to the area of what would become Burma.

It reads Chenla and Linyi.

Although the territory of the current Tang Dynasty is already very large, Yunnan, the inherent territory of China, has not yet been pocketed.

Generally speaking, the emperors of China did not have much interest in the Indochina Peninsula, the place was rampant, the mountains were stacked, and there were deep mountains and old forests everywhere.

However, Li Yuan knows how much potential the Indochina Peninsula has, although the soil of China is fertile, but after all, it is not as good as the Indochina Peninsula, these rice can be harvested twice to three times a year, and it is the place that produces the most grain in the world.

"I heard a story about a farmer whose family was very poor, and one day he came across a hare that had died under a big tree."

"Is it the Song people who are waiting for the rabbit?"

"No, no, the hare was taken home by the peasant to cook meat, but there was a dog at home, and this dog had always been loyal, and he couldn't help but smell the meat, and finally the farmer's house ate a dog and a hare."

Li Yuan finished telling the story with a smile.

“.” History of Chen Thorn.

I always feel that His Majesty has something to say.

The dog was eaten.

Is coveting the meat in the pot, accidentally stealing it, and then

Chen Tingshi's back was cold, and he quickly understood something, this is the Emperor Taishang hinting at what to do and what not to do!

If the dog behaves, the bones will be given to the dog after eating the rabbit meat.

Otherwise, it is stewed into a pot of dog broth.

"The minister will go back and handle this matter immediately, and definitely give His Majesty a clear explanation!" Chen Thorn Shi Zhengse.

Now the times are different, and it is not the weak Southern Dynasty that is in charge, but Li Tang!

Even if Li Tang secretly split into the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Northern Tang Dynasty, they are father and son, and the Emperor Taishang only has Li Shimin's son-in-law, and after his death, he will be unified again, so it seems that the Emperor Taishang is alone.

But in fact, it was the whole Li Tang.

What's more, in the army of the Southern Tang Dynasty, there were too few forces infiltrated by their family.

The southern family can only be rampant in the nest, and when they encounter the powerful Guanlong nobles, they can only be subservient.

The myth that Li Xiaogong and Li Jing swept the entire south within a month has only passed for more than ten years.

"People are interested in knowing what they can and can't! According to my investigation, there are nearly 10,000 private slaves raised by the Yingchuan Chen family in the south? Li Yuan said lightly, his face unchanged.

It's like talking about a trivial matter.

"These house slaves all joined my Chen clan voluntarily." Chen Tingshi smiled reluctantly.

The taxes in the Southern Dynasty were heavy, the people were unbearable, and the yeoman farmers were not even easier than the tenant farmers of the family, so they voluntarily sold them to the family one by one with their household registration and land properties, and became invisible black households, and the taxes were immediately reduced by a large part.

Over the years, for hundreds of years, one-third of the population of the south was hidden in the family's land.

At that time, Emperor Wen of Sui looked like a big rope, but it was only carried out thoroughly in the north, and the situation in the south was too complicated.

"This matter is not urgent, I am not a black and white person, but I can promise that if I lay down Linyi and Zhenla, I can tear the soil and be knighted, and return as many people as I want, and I will allocate as much land as I give you!" Li Yuan said.

If Huaxia really wants to use force against these small places, it is basically not difficult to fight them, but the difficulty lies in how to deal with the local Tusi ethnic problem, which is basically like the Ming Dynasty, which is generally called the feudal land, and only symbolically collects taxes, and does not make trouble.

So at this time, the role of the family was revealed, the Shanyue people who bothered Wu Guo back then, but what about the people hundreds of years later?

After crossing to the south, the clothes were basically assimilated by the family with culture, and the old Wu land in the south of the Yangtze River also became a rich place.

It is much more useful to let these families go to educate than to send people to manage them by the imperial court.

It's just that the condition is to release those slaves.

Chen Tingshi had to admit that the cake painted by the Emperor Taishang was indeed very hungry, although the place of Zhenla and Linyi was very remote and barren, but it was a knight of the earth!

1,000 acres of fertile land and 100 acres of mountainous land, which one to choose?

At the level of the family, money is a trivial matter, and the land can be passed on for a lifetime, and it will live with the country.

The two talked very happily, and Li Yuan was also willing to tell Chen Tingshi about his grand achievements, no matter how to say that this guy is a high-ranking official of the third grade, maybe he is not a figure in Chang'an, but he is one of the best in the south.

When it was time for lunch, Chen Tingshi declined to have lunch with the Emperor.

Although it is an honor, it is a matter of urgency to deal with political affairs.

The carriage galloped and soon arrived at the Chen family's mansion.

The history of the Chen thorn is the history of the thorn in the west province of Jiangnan.

But the Yingchuan Chen family naturally has an industry in Jinling.

Chen Tingshi immediately anxious about the Yingchuan Chen family, so he could talk about it, and even gave up part of the benefits of the main vein to the branch vein, and returned the more than 50 dumps of fertile land swallowed by the Yingchuan Chen family to the imperial court.

It is said that Chen Fu couldn't sleep all night tonight.

And with the news of Chen's retreat, some of the families who encroached on the land were hesitant, some saw the wind and made the rudder, some of them returned, and some of them were headed, thinking that the emperor did not dare to take their sins, and stood firm to the end.

There are even some families who start to move around and want to cheat for personal gain, but strangely, no official is willing to pay attention to them at this time.

The officials in the south are very involved with the family family, because of the relationship between the family marriage, the court is all relatives.

This is a strange situation.

Just because the governor of Yangzhou, west of Jinling, began to train his troops.

Li Xiaogong is the son of the Li family in Longxi, and he has nothing to do with the southern family.
