"It's related, it's hugely related. The www.biquge.info ministers of the pen and the fun pavilion not only cannot be regarded as not doing their jobs, but they have also made great contributions to the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, then please explain it to Your Majesty in the next one. ”

Li Hao followed Li Er's words and smiled in his heart, as long as Li Er was willing to listen, everything was easy to say. As for whether Li Er can listen to it, Li Hao can't care about it, but I believe that Li Er should be able to understand the benefits, so he immediately started his feature film discussion:

"Let's start with the quyuan plow, which is also one of the first things to be made in Xia. The plow body can swing when this thing is operated, which is convenient for deep ploughing and shallow ploughing. And it is light and flexible, which is conducive to maneuver and saves time and effort.

This not only saves animal power but also accelerates the speed of arable land, which can greatly increase the average daily land cultivated per person, which indirectly increases the grain production? Can this be considered a bad job? ”

"No, this is a lot of benefits for my Datang's agriculture, and your merits also have its share." After hearing this, Li Er smiled and said, didn't he give this kid a meritorious service for this matter?

"The second is the planting of potatoes and sweet potatoes, after these crops are planted, the yield of more than ten stones per mu can be basically guaranteed, and there is no need to occupy fertile land. Although the grain output of my Datang is much higher than that of ancient times, it is only about one stone per mu.

If the whole country promotes the planting of potatoes and sweet potatoes, the people of Datang will no longer have to worry about hunger and famine and can still have a little surplus, and the people's lives will be stable and peaceful. ”

"Of course, it's not a bad job." Li Er simply admitted it, these are the reasons why Li Hao was awarded, how could Li Er not admit it?

"Then there is cement, after the cement is manufactured, I don't have to worry about mining stones everywhere to build roads. Moreover, the cement paved road is as hard as a stone, the use time is long, and the construction is convenient, which greatly accelerates the cycle and engineering quantity of road repair.

If the entire road is paved with cement, then the time to travel from the entire place will be greatly shortened, so that the speed of the distribution of disaster relief materials will be greatly increased for the future movement of soldiers, and this will also indirectly help Min'an Guotai? Moreover, cement can also make future water conservancy maintenance more solid and reliable, saving a lot of manpower and material resources. Can this be considered a bad job? ”

What Li Hao has done in his hands, he naturally knows how to hook these things with a rich country and a strong people, and it is not a difficult thing for Li Hao, a person who came from the next generation.

"Then there is movable type printing, after this method came out, the speed of printing books in Datang has been greatly improved. In this way, readers no longer have to read their favorite good books for expensive books, and they don't have to spend a lot of time copying books, so that everyone will have books to read in the future, and it will no longer be a dream word. ”

After several examples in a row, Li Erwu couldn't refute a sentence, and he thought deeply of what Li Hao said. It seems to make sense, why don't your ministers see the relationship with yourself?

"It's the glass that the minister pushed out later, the immortal drunk, and the current tea and sugar are also more beneficial than disadvantageous to my Datang. These things are not expensive to make, and now the initial processing is a little time-consuming, and the daily output will increase over time.

Does Your Majesty think these things can make those Fanyi like? At that time, my Datang will exchange these cheap things with them for the cattle, sheep and horses that our dynasty urgently needs, does Your Majesty think this is a good deal? ”

Li Er is not a fool, so he can naturally settle this account. The attendants next to him have increased from one to two to record, and they all have to record what Li Hao said today.

The conversation between Li Hao and Li Er lasted until the evening dinner before ending a paragraph, and they also had a royal meal with Li Er halfway. Li Er didn't seem to have the idea of letting Li Hao go back, so Li Hao was not only fortunate enough to enjoy two imperial dinners in the palace, but also to enjoy the treatment of spending one night in the palace.

The imperial food in the palace is not very rich, but it tastes good, and most of it is meat. The scale of the dinner is completely consistent with Li Er's frugality at this time in history. When eating, Li Hao pays attention to food and is silent, and Li Hao naturally will not make such a small mistake.

After tossing for a day, Li Hao was hungry early, and he ate several bowls of rice in a row. It's just that he didn't tremble when he ate, but he ate very deliciously. This also indirectly affected Li Er's appetite, making him eat more than usual.

It's not that Li Hao is not afraid of Li Er, but he doesn't think it's necessary, isn't it just a meal. It's not a head-killing, anyway, I don't have a great desire to be an official, can't I eat a full meal?

However, after the meal, Li Hao sighed again because of the dishes on the table, that is, there are few vegetables here in winter, and his greenhouse cultivation will not be officially launched until next year.

"Most of the vegetables in the world are in the south, and the southernmost places can be grown all year round. But it is sparsely populated, too far away from my Datang Chang'an, and the transportation is really inconvenient. However, there is a shortage of vegetables in the north such as Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty in winter, so that Chang'an lacks vegetables in winter, while there is a surplus of vegetables and fruits in the south, which is really a waste.

Therefore, what is needed now is to be able to quickly transport vegetables and fruits from the south to the north for supply, and such a large number of paved cement roads are indispensable. In this way, all the towns in my Datang world can be connected together to speed up the transportation of materials. In this way, the material resources of the north and the south can speed up the time of mutual exchange, exchange what is not available, and prosper the flow of people and commerce in various places.

Maybe one day, my Datang will no longer need the people to pay taxes at all, and the taxes paid by the merchants alone will meet the various expenses of my Datang court, and at that time, the people of my Datang will all call Your Majesty as virtuous as Yao Shun. As the saying goes, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads.

If concrete roads are paved throughout the country, the time to travel from all parts of the country will be greatly shortened, and the distribution of relief materials will be greatly accelerated for the movement of soldiers in the future.

This will make Chang'an and all parts of the Tang Dynasty closely linked, and under the leadership of the Tang Dynasty ministers with His Majesty as the core, they will make great strides towards the road of prosperity and strength, and it will also be conducive to the stability of all parts of Datang. Why not build a few roads like this, but kill many birds with one stone? ”

Li Er was a little speechless after hearing this, it seemed that this young man never forgot to sell him his plan to build roads and water conservancy, which made Li Er a little suspicious that this guy had been waiting for him to summon him for a long time?

"Your Majesty thinks that the food in the palace is better than the food in the natural residence?" Li Hao didn't let Li Er continue to entangle, and asked Li Er a question. It seems that after being summoned by Li Er today, Li Hao asked a lot of questions.

This is Li Er's good mood today, and Li Hao's sycophants are not bad, otherwise it would not be such a situation where the monarch and the minister get along. Li Hao is not very smart, but he is not stupid either. Li Er talked about Li Tai and Li Ke during the period, but he just didn't answer a word.

Only a fool would talk to the emperor about the prince's affairs, he just met Li Er's appetite for a while. It's hard to say whether this kind of thing will last long. But at this time, it is important to say some of the things you want to say.

"The taste of natural dwelling is better." Li Er really answered the question simply, there is no way, the taste of a lot of food in the natural residence is indeed better than the taste of the imperial dining room, Li Er usually asks the people in the palace to call some food to come to the palace to taste with the concubines.

"Then Your Majesty, do you know that many of the meat foods in the natural habitat are actually made from pork?" Li Hao threw another moment of bomb to Li Er, Li Er had eaten the things of the natural residence, but he was not necessarily coarse about what was done inside.

"What? That braised pork is pork? Are the bones of winter melon pork rib soup all pork bones? Li Er was a little surprised, in his impression, pork should be fatty and unpalatable, but he didn't expect that the delicious taste he had been praising was actually made of pork, could he not be surprised?

"Your Majesty said that these are all taken from pigs and roasted, and my people in the Tang Dynasty have always looked down on pork and think that pork is unpalatable and shoddy, because they don't know how to burn.

For a long time, the beef and mutton we ate was in serious short supply, and could only be seen on special days or in the homes of the rich. In this way, the people of Datang can only eat coarse grains because meat food cannot be supplemented, so the physique of ordinary people in Datang is not as good as that of the Hu people, especially in the south. Your Majesty thinks what you said is right, right? ”

Li Hao here is actually exaggerating, the physique of the Han people in the Tang Dynasty was still good, not much worse than the Hu people, and much stronger than the physique of the Han people after the Song Dynasty and the modern Han people.

It's just that compared with the Qin and Han dynasties, the physique has decreased a lot, which is mainly due to the fact that the excellent physique in the war years was consumed a lot.

But now he is discussing this issue with Li Er, which is bullying others, Li Er has no actual statistics of these things, so Li Er naturally can't give any practical reply, so he can only support Li Hao to play.

"Therefore, His Majesty needs to set an example here and take the lead in encouraging the people to raise pigs and eat pork. Pork is cheap and can be cooked deliciously, and raising pigs is not as time-consuming as raising cattle, and feeding is simple, so that ordinary people in Datang can also raise pigs and eat meat.

The children of the common people can grow up and enhance their physique because they get enough nutrition, and the military resources of our Datang can also be fully replenished at that time. And ordinary people who have pigs at home must not be able to eat them all at once, so that there will be excess meat to spend in exchange for money. A pig may not make much money, but what if it adds up to 10 or 100 heads?

When the people are rich, they will naturally be able to improve their lives and allow the court to get more taxes. The so-called national economy and people's livelihood do not need to pay too much attention to national affairs, as long as the so-called rich people and strong country, as long as they can properly guide the people of Datang to become rich and strong, building more roads and raising more pigs is actually a strong road. ”
