Chapter 936: Five years
"Woo ......"
Chang'an North Railway Station, a green, long train slowly stopped on the tracks, at this moment there are no other people in Chang'an North Railway Station, because there are more than 1,000 guards dressed in Jinzhuang, the North Station is surrounded by the whole circle.
"Click!"
In the middle of the locomotive, a train suddenly opened.
Then a group of Shenwu guards dressed in black power suits came down from the train, their expressions were grim, their postures were tall, and they swept around the station with vigilant eyes, and their tense spirits told everyone that they were ready to attack at any time.
"Whew, it's another year!"
A young man with two moustaches under his nose, who looked to be thirty-three or four-year-old, stepped out of the open train, and judging by what he was wearing, he must have come from a certain family.
"Lord Wang, don't give Your Majesty a face this time! The last general heard from His Royal Highness King Wu that after you came back to participate in the opening ceremony of Lingyan Pavilion, you left without saying hello to Your Majesty, but you blew your beard angrily and glared at Your Majesty. Your Majesty almost issued a holy decree to transfer you back from the Dingtian Capital Protectorate! ”
A tall young man with a pair of eagle-eyed eyes walked out after the young man, and at the same time his mouth was chattering.
"That's what he said!"
The young man looked funny, and said as he walked outside the train station: "I haven't been back to Chang'an all these years, which time didn't I stay for more than a month or two months?" It's all old brothers, and they're still so calculating! ”
What else could the young man say, he just followed behind and smiled bitterly.
Out of Chang'an Railway Station, before I had time to see what changes had been made in Chang'an City in the past half a year, an extremely loud voice came:
"Xiaguan has seen His Royal Highness King Wu, His Royal Highness King Wuwang Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose ......"
This is a group of guys dressed in Datang official robes, looking at their appearance, they should all be Datang officials.
Wait a minute. What are those guys and the young man called? Warrior King?
Feeling this young man, it turned out to be Li Yuanba!
Yes, it has been five years since the opening of Lingyan Pavilion, and in these five years, Datang can be said to have developed rapidly.
First of all, electricity, the power supply was first proposed by the old craftsmen of the Shenji Mansion, and the epoch-making and world's first generator was manufactured.
Speaking of which, Li Shimin is also lacking in virtue enough, and the Shenji Mansion guards this secret. When there is a new stage of victory in the development of electric power, it will be shown in front of the people.
Anyway, it won't delay the development of Datang!
But this old thing, not long after the generator was studied, the news of the discovery of new energy was made public.
New energy sources have been discovered, and those princes and ministers and businessmen and wealthy people have seen infinite business opportunities in this, and if they can master this method, then money and wealth will not continue to jump into their pockets?
It's a pity. The idea is plump, the reality is skinny.
Although the new energy source has just been developed, it has set off a frenzy in the territory of Datang, up to the princes and ministers. When they went down to the businessmen and the wealthy people, they all spent a lot of manpower, material and financial resources like crazy, looking for ways to generate electricity and studying the principles of power generation...... But these things. If you don't have a certain amount of knowledge of physics, you can't participate in it.
So, those princes and ministers and businessmen who are very rich. After losing a lot of money, I had to give up this tempting idea.
As a result, under the deliberate operation of Li Shimin, the electricity was completely managed by the imperial court, and even the design drawings of the parts of the generator did not flow out of the Shenji Mansion.
In just one year, generators have been popularized in Datang, and even North and South America and Oceania have been brought to manufacturing equipment by the people of Shenji Mansion and Shenwuwei, and they have produced and sold themselves.
New energy has begun to be applied in all walks of life in Datang.
It is particularly worth mentioning that after the invention of electricity, Li Yuanba immediately ordered the people of the Shenji Mansion to create electric lights, and popularized electric lights throughout the Tang Dynasty.
The people in Datang are all praising Li Yuanba, at least the electric light has made them taste the benefits.
……
After the discovery of new power and energy, the second great change in Datang is the reform in agriculture, Datang recovered the land of the local lords and chaebols, and even the fiefs of the princes and nobles of the Tang Dynasty were recovered by the imperial court under various names.
Of course, it is impossible to recover these lands for nothing, and the court still paid a great price.
After the land was repossessed by Datang, public leases began, not for the wealthy merchants of Datang, but for the farmers who were inherent in Datang and who made a living from planting.
Another point is that if you want to cultivate these lands, you must use the seeds provided by the imperial court, and after the crops are produced, the imperial court will take forty percent, and the remaining sixty percent will belong to the farmers who plant them, and three percent of the sixty percent of the harvest must be sold to the imperial court, and the remaining thirty percent will be the pure profits of the farmers.
At the beginning, those peasants did not accept this model of the imperial court, after all, the rental price of these lands was not expensive, and the average price of an acre of land was only a few pennies, which was really the price of cabbage.
Moreover, the seeds for planting the land are not bought by the peasants themselves, but received from the imperial court, and in the end, sixty percent of the harvest of the land fell into their hands, although they had to sell thirty percent to the imperial court, but who didn't need money? To whom is it sold not to sell?
In other words, the farmers are paying nothing more than labor to cultivate these lands.
Such a cheap good thing actually fell on them, and they didn't believe that there was such a good thing in the world!
But then, when some farmers began to try and enjoy this benefit, one spread ten, ten spread hundreds, and hundreds passed on thousands...... The peasants and people of the entire Datang Kingdom have moved, after all, there is not much land for Datang to open for lease this time, first come, first served!
This kind of lease lasted for three years, and it was in these three years that Datang hoarded a large amount of grain, and Datang's grain reserves were enough for the people in Datang's Asian, Eurasian and African continents to eat for a full year.
Three years later, these lands were no longer open for leasing, but were given some nourishment from the Shenji Mansion and began to recuperate.
After that, Datang also started the third change, the fourth change......
Five years is not a long time, but it is not a short time, Datang continues to transform towards modernization, but in the process of transformation, Datang has not forgotten the protection of the environment.
After all, for so many years, for the large application of coal and coke, it is impossible for the environment not to be polluted, and Li Yuanba is just taking precautions. (To be continued.) )
