Chapter 0707. Build canals

Although this defeat in Arabia did not shake the foundation of the Fujian State, but the losses were still considerable, after the return of the army from the Middle East arrived in the Beijing Division, the southeast of the Beijing Division was almost everywhere with cries, and the huge Tianzhu thousands of miles of Zhichong Prefecture was depleted by one-third, and since the establishment of the Beijing Division, the treasury that had gradually become rich became the bottom again.

Politically, Fujian's allies Tubo, Central Asia's Tocharo, Zhaowu Jiu and other dozens of countries betrayed Fujian and launched an attack on Fujian, and the rebellion of Nantianzhu was once again set off, and Li Rang, the prison country, was also supported by Guanzhong as the puppet King Zhu, so that Li Jie had to endure the pain of abolishing the eldest son as a concubine and imprisoning him in the deep palace, and at the same time sealing the second son Li Jin as the king of Zhili County, and made a series of major adjustments in the political situation.

However, the greatest damage to the Min State was the shaking of local rule caused by poor communication during the expedition.

In these years, there was no radio, and when the news of floods, floods, locust plagues, and earthquakes reached Li Jie's hands, the yellow 'flowers' and vegetables were cold.

The Ming Dynasty fell in the vigorous peasant uprising, the cause of the peasant uprising was the catastrophe for many years, but the cause of the natural disaster was not all, among which there was no lack of *, starting from the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, the Wanli Emperor did not go to the court for 30 years, and even many ministers retired and returned to their hometowns The excerpts could not be approved, not to mention the replacement of officials, it was also from this time that the Ming Dynasty's official governance was sharply corrupted, officials were corrupt, and even the river workers who governed the Yellow River were embezzled.

Over the years, the irrigation system of the Yellow River has been corrupted, the reservoirs have dried up, the drainage system has been blocked, and the peaceful years have been fine.

Although the Fujian State has not yet reached that point, the Ganges River has already affected the richest land on both sides of the river, dozens of prefectures and counties have been affected, one-third of the richest land has been soaked in water, and the water conservancy system built by the previous Tianzhu dynasties and the Fujian State in the years after its occupation has been washed into a mess.

Around this, the upper class of Fujian was still immersed in the political revenge and impulse of war, more and more government soldiers were gathered near the Beijing Division, and the middle and lower class of scholars and wealthy families began to become anxious, not only the local big families of Tianzhu, but also many Chinese scholars who immigrated to Tianzhu.

You must know that the prosperity and wealth of the Sui Dynasty are not inferior to those of today's Fujian, but under the years of conquest, the oil is still consumed.

However, in February of the second year of Longshuo, the 'spring' began, and the official notices posted on the streets and alleys of Jingshi broke the 'gloomy' cloud of the war, but it raised the hearts of the Chang'an Shi clan to their throats.

"In the year of the catastrophe and defeat, at this time, if you don't rest with the people and build the Grand Canal, what is the difference between this and the former Sui?"

Seeing the notice on the wall, Master Liu couldn't help but blow his beard and stare angrily, the Jinxian crown on his head was crooked, and his green silk man's coat was tightened, and he was so angry that he jumped on his feet and shouted.

This old man Liu is amazing, a native of Luoyang, Henan, his ancestors once hung agriculture and guarded it, and his generation was also a big family in Heluo, and Master Liu himself was even more amazing, after experiencing the Sui and Tang dynasties, until the Luoyang chaos of Zhenguan for twenty-three years, he was coerced by Fujian **** to enter Fujian from Shandong, moved to Beijing, and granted several hectares of fertile land near Jingshi in Fujian, and settled down in Beijing.

Master Liu's eldest son Liu Zhuang also joined Zuo Wuwei to become a captain-level officer, recently returned from the Middle East battlefield, and the second son Liu Bo even sat on the Hengshui County Order, and became an official in Fuzhou County near the Ganges River.

Seeing that Master Liu was so angry that he jumped to his feet and scolded, the residents of the Xiuye Workshop who were watching around were even more frightened, their faces changed their faces, they were shy and had a big belly, and they only got rich by doing things and trading. It won't be that the prince of Min is going to increase the business tax again, right? ”

In order to communicate the trade routes between the East and the West, from Fuzhou and Quanzhou in the east, to the dense forests of the Indochina Peninsula, and then to the two sides of Tianzhu in the north and south, Fujian has built countless trade routes, ports, and trade inns, but the commercial tax of Fujian is indeed high, even two layers higher than the warlords' melee Arab Empire and the financially exhausted Byzantine Empire.

The merchants of Fujian had a high status, were respected, and enjoyed the services and protection of the government, but they also 'paid' considerable taxes, and were truly miserable and happy.

Looking at Daldiwa's pale face, a strong sense of superiority rose in Mr. Liu's heart, his family is a Tang person, the home of the eunuch, not only the land is exempt from taxes, but also the government arranges conscription to help their family farm, Mr. Liu's family only needs to continue to produce officials and sergeants, for this head to be broken before he was admitted to the first level of Tang language, and finally obtained a Tang name that he can't even read the paperwork, of course the sense of superiority is bursting.

"It's not a tax increase, it's okay to raise taxes, it's the prince of Min who wants to build the Grand Canal."

"Repair the river, repair the river, I heard that the recent flooding of the Ganges River is 'very' miserable, the prince of Min does not fight, and it is also a good thing to repair the river." As soon as he heard that it was not a tax increase, Dawadir breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a relaxed tone, and his words also infected a large group of Tianzhu people and Tang people around him, and everyone was about to disperse when they talked and laughed.

Seeing that the neighbors around him who didn't care about it were about to disperse, this made Master Liu, who was worried about the country and the people, anxious, and shouted sadly when he patted his big 'legs': "What do you know!" The prince of Min wants to build a super canal from the Himalayan pass to Bengal and across the entire North Tianzhu, do you know how much silk it costs, how much forced labor is issued, and how much food is consumed? ”

Pointing to the shocked Dawadika, Master Liu roared as painfully as he saw the class enemy: "In our Central Plains, there is an emperor who died because of the construction of the canal, and once the canal is built, the people of the entire Northern Tianzhu will abandon their cultivated land to work, and groups of people will die of exhaustion on the construction site, and then the corpses will be all over the field, starvation everywhere, and the world will be 'chaotic'!"

"Liu Weng, King Min Yingming, it's not that serious, right?" On the other end, a young Tang scholar was a little unconvinced, who expected that Old Man Liu's face turned black, and he turned around in pain.

"Weisheng, you are still young, you haven't experienced the 'chaos' and 'chaos' period of Emperor Yang of Sui, and you haven't been too hungry, just go back and ask your family! The old man is friends with your family, and I know that more than ten people in your family died in the canal! ”

Listening to what Master Liu said seriously, Osho's face was also pale with fright.

"In order to repair the canal, you will definitely have to raise taxes at that time, what kind of card, and when the time comes, all the little things that your store earns will have to be collected, Li Jiaweng, when the official messenger will come to the 'door' every day, and collect taxes like a wolf and a tiger, your eldest and second child will have to be pulled away, and your little grandson's rice soup will not be left! Everybody's going to starve! ”

The spittle splashed, and Master Liu told all the stories of the great 'chaos' painting and 'color' he experienced in the end of the Sui Dynasty in his childhood, listening to the hundreds of old neighbors' faces 'color' and 'legs' trembling, just when Master Liu said that his face was 'agitated' and red, suddenly the tail student with trembling teeth shouted: "Liu Jiaweng, since the construction of the Grand Canal is so terrible, on behalf of all of us, you will go to the King of Min and be willing to take back your life!"

"Karma~" Suddenly, Master Liu's social complaint at the end of the Sui Dynasty came to an abrupt end, and it was his turn to turn pale with a ruddy face, he remembered that in the former Sui Dynasty, those ministers who admonished were all 'very' miserable, and he went to the 'door' to find the King of Min to advise the people? Maybe before he saw His Highness, he was beheaded as a fallacy to 'confuse' the crowd.

Maybe you'll have to raid your home! Thinking about his little grandson how old he is, Master Liu can't wait to 'slap' himself a few times, what a mouth!

"Well, this, the old man suddenly felt stomach discomfort, a few people look slowly, the old man first."

"Yes, let's support Master Liu and go to His Highness to advise!" Before Master Liu finished speaking, Wei Sheng had already raised his arms excitedly, Dawadika, Old Man Li, and a series of neighbors cheered, pushing Master Liu and walking out of the neighborhood.

"Hey, don't push! Don't push! The old man is not, can't the old man go? ”

Pushed by hundreds of neighbors, Mr. Liu, who wanted to retreat, finally had to swallow his words back, and agreed aggrievedly, while walking, the old man was still surging sadly in his heart, too famous, and it was not a good thing!

Repair the canal, in the Beijing division caused by the 'commotion' is not small, more than 200 square tens of thousands of people want to go to the palace of the king of Min willing to go, this can be a nervous look of the police force frightened enough, almost all the staff dispatched, and finally even the prime minister came forward, up and down communication, this reluctantly agreed to choose two hundred old men to persuade the king of Fujian.

Min Palace, Lin De Palace, under the escort of Zanpo and sixteen guards, Li Jie walked out briskly, humming a minor tune along the way, but Wu Meiniang beside him was full of displeasure, and hummed angrily: "Your Highness, a group of foolish people, where do you know the country's major policies, why bother to put aside political affairs to meet them?"

"Otherwise, Mei Niang, these old people of the Jingshi clan care about the current situation and care about Gu's policy, which shows that they support the Min State and the Lone King, otherwise, the careerists would have plotted to rebel a long time ago!" It really feels like a leader going up to inspect, Li Jie said happily, and Wu Meiniang was stunned when she listened.

It seems to make sense, too.

The location of the meeting was set in the small square outside the Lin De Palace, but just when Li Jie was about to walk out of the Lin De Hall with a small tune, there was a sudden burst of 'chaotic' coaxing outside the outside.

Seeing that Li Jie's smile froze on his face, and then his face became very dark, one 'pump' and one 'pump', it would be Wu Meiniang's turn to shake her little hands with a smile.

"Lang Jun is angry, these people are all supporters of the Min Kingdom."

"Look for death! Scold to the lonely head! ”――74968+dsuaahhh+28142172――>
