Chapter 236: Long Time No See
Historically, Nanjing has benefited from both its unique geographical location and extraordinary feng shui environment, and has suffered many times from the disaster of war in the past, but it has also repeatedly regained its prosperity from the rubble and smoke. And when the Central Plains was occupied by foreign races and the Han nation was about to suffer a catastrophe, the Han people usually chose Nanjing to recuperate, determined to go on the Northern Expedition and restore China.
During the period of the Three Kingdoms, Emperor Sun Quan of Wu built the capital here and changed the tomb to Jianye. Since then, the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern Dynasties of Song, Qi, Liang and Chen have successively built their capitals here, so Nanjing has the name of "the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties".
After the Sui destroyed Chen, Nanjing suffered the largest destruction since the establishment of the capital. Emperor Wen of Sui issued an edict to "build a healthy city and cultivate the palace". During the period of the Six Dynasties, the palaces, pavilions and pavilions in Jiankang were all razed to the ground and turned into farmland, sweeping away the prosperity of the imperial capital of the Six Dynasties, so as not to be occupied by others and continue to be called emperors. In the 300 years since then, Nanjing and its surrounding areas have become a symbol of "secluded paths" and "ancient hills".
The Sui Dynasty consciously implemented a policy of suppressing Jinling, destroying the cities and palaces of the Six Dynasties. Today's Tang Dynasty continued to implement the policy of suppressing Jinling, which made the urban construction in the region not develop much, but Jinling is still an important town in the southeast and an economic and cultural center.
Of course, Li Er and Fang Xuanling knew Jinling, and they knew very well, and they also knew why the Sui Dynasty attacked Jinling, all because Jinling's geographical location was too superior, and it was not an exaggeration to even call it the imperial capital, so, as emperors, of course, they didn't want to prosper anywhere, but now that Li Yi mentioned this, he had to reconsider.
Li Yi also knew something about Jinling, so he opened his mouth to express his understanding. "Uncle Li, once the rice thing is true, then it is imperative to develop Jiangnan, but once Jiangnan is developed, Jinling is an existence that cannot be bypassed no matter what, just like now, although Jinling's development is sluggish, but he is still the center of Jiangnan, and it is also recovering its former glory at an astonishing speed, just by virtue of this, Jinling, must be paid attention to!" After a pause, Li Yi said again. "Uncle Li, the little nephew has always believed in a saying, for floods, it is better to be blocked than to be sparse!"
What Li Yi said was very vague, but Li Er and Fang Xuanling could understand it, what Li Yi meant was that since Jinling can still rise under your oppression, what else is the oppression? It not only hinders the development of the south, but also easily arouses the disgust of the people in the south of the Yangtze River towards the Tang Dynasty, so it is better to recognize the status of Jinling generously and develop it thoroughly, so that Jinling can be completely held in his hands, which is much better than suppression.
But in how to say it, this is only Li Yi's words, Li Er can't make a conclusion, although it seems that Li Er's advice to Li Yi has always been obedient, but it was only implemented after Li Er and his confidant ministers deliberated day and night, in the final analysis, Li Yi is too young and too shallow, so even if Li Yi said a plan that obviously has more advantages than disadvantages, Li Er is still cautious and does not make a conclusion.
"Alright, stinky boy, I know what you said, anyway, you still have a month's vacation now, and when the time comes, I will send someone to inform you."
Li Yi waved his hand, he also knew Li Er's thoughts, he didn't care, it was Li Er's business whether he opened it or not, agreed, Li Yile benefited the people of Jiangnan, if he didn't agree, Li Yi also asked for ease. "Hehe, you'd better disagree, then I'll have a good time!"
Li Er scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy, look at your unproductive appearance!" ”
"Cut, I'm only fifteen years old, of course I have to learn to be lazy, oh! By the way, this month's vacation should be counted after I arrived in Maoshan, right? Otherwise, I will consume most of my vacation on the road, what a loss! ”
"You kid is really a chicken thief, so let's do it, it's impossible after you arrive in Maoshan, otherwise you will play on the road for half a year, where will I find you? In this way, you will be given an extension of half a month, a month and a half of vacation, so be it! ”
Li Yi glanced at his mouth, he really lived the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, am I that kind of person? I don't know, he really doesn't have much credibility with Li Er, who called Li Yi too thief?
After Li Er allowed Li Yi to retire, Fang Xuanling also retired one after another, although he also wanted to continue to discuss with Li Er what Li Yi said about the development of Jiangnan and the slave alien race, but now the most important thing is to let Li Yi solve the affairs of the Ministry of Finance first, and there is already a hurry.
The two came all the way to the household department of Shangshu Province, and then Fang Xuanling took Li Yi to a strange courtyard, Li Yi took a look, and knew that this courtyard was better than the original office of the Ministry of Finance, I don't know how many times.
And there are a lot more people coming and going here than before, Li Yi listened to a few ears, and found that the discussion was all about cement, and it seems that Ma Zhou's propaganda work is still doing well.
Not long after, Fang Xuanling took Li Yi to a study, Li Yi raised his eyes to see, this study is much larger than other rooms, and it is also a lot more magnificent, carved beams and painted buildings, green tiles and red walls, and it is very high at a glance, Li Yi estimated that this should be Ma Zhou's office.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered it, he saw Ma Zhouzheng discussing something with a group of sub-directors and Ling Shi, and when he saw Fang Xuanling, he hurriedly came over to greet him, and called Fang Xiang. Then I saw Li Yi again, and the eyes of these people suddenly changed, most of these people were the old team at the beginning, so although Li Yi only served as a waiter in the Ministry of Finance for one day, he left behind, but these people still knew Li Yi, and they were quite impressed, so when they saw Li Yi, they hurriedly said that they were saluted.
Li Yi exchanged a few polite words with them, and then drove them all out, leaving only Ma Zhou and Li Yehei.
The moment Ma Zhou saw Li Yi come in, he was very excited, he was too tormented for a while, although the results were remarkable, but he didn't know Li Yi's next move, and he didn't dare to act rashly, so he was stuck here, like a fish in his throat, not to mention how uncomfortable it was, so when Li Yi looked at him, he didn't give him a good face, this liar, what about advancing and retreating together?
Seeing Ma Zhou's face, Li Yi was also very embarrassed, touched his nose, Li Yi also felt that what he was doing was too fucked, the Ministry of Finance that he set up, as a result, only served as a waiter in the Ministry of Finance for one day, and then he became the shopkeeper and handed over all the tasks to Ma Zhou, this is Ma Zhou, if he was someone else, he would have been mad a long time ago, he didn't do it, it was too tricky, you know, managing a department that he is not familiar with at all, or Li Er's focus is on, you can imagine how much pressure Ma Zhou is facing.
"Ahem! That, Brother Binwang, long time no see! ”
