"An inch of mountains and rivers, an inch of blood, 100,000 men and 100,000 troops. The poem of the Ghost Valley is really extraordinary, and the momentum is magnificent. On horseback, a general in armor and a cloak on his shoulders couldn't help but exclaim.

"Brother Daozong, how can Yaxing read poetry today." A middle-aged man on the side, dressed in bright armor and wearing a tassel on his head, also rode a horse to follow, and asked with a smile.

"Oh, Brother Li Ji doesn't know, this "Guigu Anthology" is still from the hands of Xu Yang of Guigu, the unsuccessful rabbit cub in my family, what is said to be used to ward off evil spirits and exorcise demons, and I was bored during the march, so I had to take out this thing and take a look." Li Daozong said with a smile.

Li Ji didn't think so, took out a map from his arms, nodded and said to Li Daozong: "Let's not talk about poetry and songs, look at this map, let's stop the ship from Cangzhou, and the front is Youzhou, a few months ago, Zhang Liang, the governor of the navy, has arrived, and supervised the construction of artillery warships according to His Majesty's order, plus the four hundred grain ships at Taicang Wharf, a total of 1,000 ships, and when we get there, we will go our separate ways." ”

Li Daozong smiled heartily: "Brother Li Ji, don't worry, my brother is also a general who has made great contributions to my Tang Dynasty, and it is not a problem to break these small fish and shrimp by land, but Brother Li Ji, you must be careful when you take the waterway." ”

Li Ji's expression was a little exciting, it seemed that Li Daozong, as an army general, had never seen an artillery ship developed by the general, and the power of that thing made even Li Ji feel frightened when he saw it, and even Li Ji believed that no one in this world could beat the navy of the Tang Dynasty, and the only thing that made him feel at ease was Li Daozong's army, because there was news from a spy. Goryeo overhauled fortifications in Liaosu. It looks like it's a tight defense. Li Ji was also afraid that his old fellow would suffer.

"Brother Daozong, I heard that the Goryeo people have built the Great Wall of more than 1,000 meters in Liaoshui, you have to be careful." Li Ji said with some concern.

When Li Daozong heard this, he actually laughed, pointed to the neat and murderous army behind him, and said with some wryness: "The Great Wall is just a big wall, and the city management team behind this general will let the Goryeo people know what the most terrible thing in the world is............

An endless grassland bordered by a vast lake. The lake is very large, the water is very clear, the blue sky and the clear water, in the sun, actually constitute a beautiful natural scenery, on the edge of the big lake there is a very small thatched hut, a child-like child drives the sheep, holding a long thing in his arms, after driving the sheep into the sheepfold next to the thatched hut, he can't wait to carry the thing into the house.

"Daddy. What is this thing? The child asked excitedly as he entered the room, towards a middle-aged man in the room.

"You, why are you so disobedient. That's how many sheep were released, why did they run back. The middle-aged man originally had his back to the child, but when he turned around and saw something in the child's hand, his whole body seemed to be electrocuted, as if he had seen something that made him feel great fear, and even his body trembled.

The child didn't notice the change in the man, and still said excitedly: "Today I went to the Tula Mountain on the back of Qinghai to stock, and I picked up this thing next to the lake, Daddy, what is this?" ”

The man seemed to be unable to recall the past that made him extremely afraid, and even his eyelids jumped, as if he had exhausted his strength, before he squeezed out a few words from his mouth, "This...... It's a gun. ”

The child was still curious, and asked persistently, "Daddy, what is a gun?" ”

The man's eyes turned red all of a sudden, and he remembered his dead brothers, comrades-in-arms, and relatives of the entire village in the war with Datang.

"This thing is used by a unit of the Tang people, their number is Chengguan, what you are holding in your hand is their weapon, promise Daddy, if you meet them in the future, the first thing must be to escape...... They are all demons from hell......" ......

Xia Cicada kept chirping, Chang'an's Qinglongfang has now become a holy place for Tang Dynasty businessmen, in order to highlight the status of Qinglongfang, Xu Yang specially arranged a bus directly to each square.

Since the introduction of buses, Chang'an City has also expanded violently, and the original tall city walls can no longer lock more and more people who have settled and worked in Chang'an City.

Now Chang'an, even some of the previous gardens have been bulldozed to build a city house, for those who have no place to live in the common people, Qujiang Pond, Qinghu Pond and other ponds, there are also many people in them to build a simple pergola, the attraction of the international metropolis is unparalleled, in order to be able to live in this big city, the people and businessmen of the surrounding counties have squeezed their heads to enter it.

This is the time when the heat is unbearable, Chang'an Xinghuafang suddenly has a decorated shop pù opened, to say that the store pù opened is nothing new, because since His Majesty announced this year to promote the policy of promoting the legal business of merchants, as long as they pay taxes on time, merchants can make a lot of money, which has promoted the commercial prosperity of Chang'an, basically every day there are new shops opened.

However, this new shop pù is different from the others in that it sells something not ordinary, but a dessert, called ice cream and popsicles.

To say these two things, the people of Chang'an have never heard of it, but when the store pù opened, the onlookers were shocked after tasting this kind of dessert, and they could eat ice on a hot day, which is a rare thing, the ice seller on Chang'an Street, each piece of ice costs fifty yuan, and here, a popsicle with a sweet taste only costs ten yuan, and the more expensive ice cream is only fifteen yuan.

The people of Chang'an suddenly went crazy, especially those half-old children, pestering their parents to eat this popsicle all day long, no wonder, in the future generations, the children did not have the slightest resistance to it, and they couldn't stop eating it at all......

"Third brother, how much did you earn today?" Li Chengqian held a small abacus in his hand and asked excitedly.

"Well, I'll take a look, I sold more than 500 sticks at noon today, and after removing the cost, I made a net profit of 2,500 yuan." Li Ke's voice was also a little trembling with excitement, "But the store fee and staff fee have not been counted." ”

"Oh, the store was sent by Master Xu, what kind of store fee do you want, and those eunuchs dare to ask us for staff fees?" Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows.

"Big brother, having said that, but we have earned so much, we must share some with our subordinates." Li Ke still insisted.

Hearing Li Ke say this, Li Chengqian also bowed slightly, "My father said that those who are virtuous and those who are above should enjoy the same as those below, and what the third brother said is also reasonable, so let's take out three hundred guan and give it to those eunuchs." ”……

When several princes gave the 300 yuan staff fee to those eunuchs, they said that it was a reward, and those eunuchs were moved, kowtowed and thanked them, and swore that they would be loyal to death in the future......

"What? Are there surrounding people who build houses outside the walls of Chang'an City to settle down? Li Er looked at a fold on the table, and his tone was seven points surprised and three points puzzled. Why did they settle outside the city walls? ”

"Returning to His Majesty, now there are many people without land in the surrounding townships of Chang'an, who have come to Chang'an City to work, such as Qinglongfang's current several joint factories are recruiting people on a large scale, requiring employees to go to work on time every day, and those people from outside the city have built houses not far from the city walls and moats to facilitate them to reach the factory." Fang Xuanling elaborated respectfully.

"This ......" Li Er was also a little speechless, the factory is a good thing, but such an increasingly large-scale recruitment always makes him a little afraid.

"Fang Aiqing, you go and take a few servants from the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Civil Affairs to take a look outside the city, and count how many people there are, and then go to the Merchant Association of Qinglongfang to ask how many people they need, and then I will make plans."

"No!" Fang Xuanling hurriedly retreated after receiving the will, the more this kind of thing is postponed, the more people will be able to do it, and the more difficult it will be to deal with it.

"What else is there to do with you, Aiqing?" Li Er rubbed his headache, he recently went to Goryeo, and there were still a lot of things in the court that he needed to deal with, and he was more and more powerless.

"The minister has something to do." The eldest grandson Wuji stood up, "What the minister is playing is the ...... of the five princes doing business...... (To be continued......)
