Section 81 Pity the peasants!
Li Yuanxing said that Chang'an and Luoyang would have 100,000 more literate people in one year, not to mention Qu Tutong, even Li Er was very excited.
Books are not something that ordinary people can afford to read.
Books are all in the family, a book for the people, and a Analect. Even if it is a manuscript with errors, it will not be less than 100 texts. For an ordinary family, this is the price of hundreds of catties of grain.
Thirteen texts, Li Er believes that Li Yuanxing will create a miracle.
Li Yuanxing continued at this time: "The third task is farming. Luoyang is a good place, if it is used reasonably, there can be tens of millions of acres, or even hundreds of millions of acres of land, and it will become the first big granary of Datang. According to one acre of land and ten stones......" Li Yuanxing paused: "No, according to eight stones, more than one billion stones of grain." ”
Li Yuanxing said, his face couldn't help revealing a look of longing.
Qu Tutong has lived to be seventy years old!
He has experienced wars, famines, and the tragedy of hungry people changing their children for food. He knows the importance of food, more than a billion stones, and when they are piled up, they are a mountain, a mountain that makes everyone in the world feel at ease.
"On the afternoon of hoeing day, sweat drops into the soil, who knows that the Chinese food on the plate is hard work!" Qu Tutong couldn't help but read this poem that came out of Li Yuanxing's mouth.
Li Yuanxing doesn't remember the source of the poem, it seems that it is also from the Tang Dynasty.
With Li Yuanxing's knowledge, there are definitely no more than 30 poems that can be memorized, of course, there must be three geese among them.
"What a pity for the peasants!" Li Er praised.
Li Yuanxing was a little embarrassed, his face was slightly red, and he immediately changed the topic: "Luoyang has a lot of wasteland, it will be flat this winter, and it will be planted at the beginning of spring next year, at the end of January, and at the beginning of February." Xiao Wang has a grain of fifteen stones per mu, even if the wasteland is barren and poorly managed, there is also an output of eight stones, and each mu can also have a hundred stones of green storage cattle and horse feed. ”
Qu Tutong, who was kneeling on the cushion, straightened up and made a silent bow.
There is nothing more to say, this is indeed a heavy responsibility, a heavy responsibility of the country. The only thing Qu Tutong used to repay Li Yuanxing was to complete this task.
Qu Tutong left, and he decided to leave Chang'an in three days and go to Luoyang.
There were only two people in the study, Li Er and Li Yuanxing, looking at Qu Tutong's back from a distance, Li Yuanxing said: "The old general is afraid that he has more than enough heart and not enough strength." But if you don't comfort the veteran's heart, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of all the generals! ”
"The strength is insufficient, there are two gentlemen Fang Du!" Li Er smiled next to him and answered.
"Brother Huang, do you really dare to let me lead the troops? I've never been to war, I've never killed anyone! Li Yuanxing is not weak-hearted, he just wants to hear Li Er's thoughts.
Li Er pulled Li Yuanxing to sit down: "Wulang, the first time my brother killed someone was fourteen years old. You are the general of Tiance, you have to dare to kill. Your martial arts are not as good as the generals, but if you want to convince the sergeants, then you must be bold and fair. The best way to control the sergeants is to win the battle and let the more people come back alive, the higher your prestige! ”
"Got it!" Li Yuanxing nodded very seriously.
"You are out on the march, you don't have to worry about all the logistics, help you for my brother!" Li Er patted Li Yuanxing's shoulder.
Li Yuanxing nodded with a smile, and then said to stand still: "I heard that the children of the Xungui family are more than big, but I actually have an idea. The nobles of the Tang Dynasty are all nobles, it can be said that the Tang Dynasty belongs to the royal family, but it also belongs to the nobles and the common people, and the nobles can be high because they have paid a lot for the Tang Dynasty. ”
"That's right!"
After receiving Li Er's praise, Li Yuanxing became more confident: "Then, Datang is actually standing at the top, it is our royal family and nobles. In case of trouble, the royal family cannot be left behind, and the nobles naturally cannot just wait and enjoy. No pay, no return! ”
"Okay, a good one, no payback!"
Li Er stood up excitedly and walked around the study several times: "For my brother, you have to think about this sentence carefully, and the things that you can enjoy can't be left to the juniors in the noble family, these little guys are the scourge of Chang'an!" ”
"Scourge turned warlord, Wenchen?"
"Great idea!" The two brothers, Li Er and Li Yuanxing, hahadaxiao, have to pay since they are nobles, and they have to pay more than ordinary people.
Li Yuanxing continued confidently: "Add one more, there is no lower limit for meritorious service, and there is no upper limit for meritorious service." ”
"Tell me about it!"
"There is no lower limit to meritorious service, as long as it is a person from the Tang Dynasty, no matter who it is, even if it is a slave, as long as it is meritorious, there will be a reward. A slave who has been on the battlefield dozens of times and has made countless exploits, and then what? Become a captain, then become a general, have a knighthood, zuihou become a duke! Li Yuanxing smiled a little slyly: "So, what do other people think!" ”
Li Er let out a loud voice and patted Li Yuanxing on the back vigorously: "Good my Wulang, this plan is wonderful." After thinking about it carefully, let's pick one or two meritorious slaves in this war! ”
"Brother Huang, I still think it's better to bring one out!" Li Yuanxing smiled evilly.
Li Er was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood the fun in it, and daxiao heartily.
The two brothers chatted for a while about the strategic layout and the response plan of the family gate valve in Chang'an City, even Li Er couldn't think of any shortcomings in strategy, what was missing at the moment was the performance of the generals in the battle, and the response of the Turkic side.
At noon, when Li Er asked when Li Yuanxing would send troops, Li Yuanxing's expression darkened.
"What's on your mind?" Li Er asked with concern.
"Before I set out, I want to pay homage to a few people."
"How many people?"
Li Yuanxing looked at the sky outside the window, lowered his head and sighed softly: "Brother Huang, it's a few generals." Meng Tian, who guarded the outside of the Qin period, was said by the world to be cruel to the Qin Emperor. But at the end of Qin, the world was in turmoil, but the Qin Emperor secretly ordered that the army guarding the Xiongnu in the north did not come back, nor did he let the army guarding the south come back. ”
"Defend the country, no matter how chaotic it is, it is still the world of the Han people." Li Er also agreed with Li Yuanxing's statement.
Then he asked, "What else?" ”
Li Yuanxing's expression was filled with a hint of excitement: "Naturally, it is the great general of the Han Dynasty, Da Sima, Lie Hou." Wei Qing! ”
"Okay, I'll make him king!" Li Er admires Wei Qing.
It's not that Wei Qing is better than Huo Quai, or anything. But because of Wei Qing's experience, sitting at the peak of the Han Dynasty military generals as a riding slave, the cemetery turned out to be in the imperial mausoleum circle after his death, which is the supreme glory for a courtier and a former slave.
Especially initially, the weak enemy was strong, then evenly matched, and then the Xiongnu were defeated strongly.
Wei Qing's contribution is indispensable.
"Someone!" Li Er snorted lightly, and an attendant came in at that moment, and Li Er commanded: "Spread Yu Shinan, Zhu Suiliang!" ”
Yu Shinan is now the teacher of the princes, and he teaches in the palace in the morning. And Zhu Suiliang has already been assigned to the Qin Palace, and the position is still waiting for Li Yuanxing to officially open the mansion, and the officials will follow. Recently, he also studied with his teacher Yu Shinan, and also helped the Pope and princesses practice calligraphy.
Soon, Yu Shinan went to Zhu Suiliang and came to Li Er's study.
Li Yuanxing was grinding ink, and Zhu Suiliang took over Li Yuanxing's work in the past. It's not because Li Yuanxing is the king of Qin, but Zhu Suiliang doubts that Li Yuanxing's ink grinding can write good words for a while, and this grinding ink is also exquisite, and it is definitely not Li Yuanxing's black and energetic grinding.
Li Er stood at his desk and pondered.
"Holy!" Yu Shinan gave a salute.
Li Er's eyes did not leave the paper, and he said: "I want to write two sacrificial texts, one for General Meng Tian who guarded the northern part of Great Qin during the Qin period. The other was given to General Wei Qing of the Han Dynasty who struck the Huns. Qing wrote a praise article, praising the Han general Wei Qing, and I want to crown him king! ”
A quaint praise article, for Yu Shinan, can be written with a pen.
It's just that this article is wanted by the Tang Emperor, and it is related to the praise of the martyrs before the war, so we must pay attention to it.
Zhu Suiliang was asked to do other preparations, to do the framing work, and to prepare a few varnish sandalwood boxes. This kind of wooden box is claimed to be non-rotten for 10,000 years even if it is soaked in water, and after sealing it with lacquer, there is not even a trace of air circulating inside. There is also an inscription on the sandalwood box, which is naturally the life of Zhu Suiliang.
It is said that there are four, one of which is a holy decree, in fact, a total of nine articles were written, and the holy decree was given a separate box.
These nine articles did not take a long time, but the follow-up work took two full days. In addition to going to the court, Li Er did it himself in the process of framing and sealing the box.
At noon on the fourth day, Li Yuanxing went to the barracks and inquired about the situation of the whole outfit.
Then Li Yuanxing returned to Qinwangzhuang.
At this time, Chang'an County was already building a lot of construction, and on the road for an hour, Li Yuanxing could see tens of thousands of craftsmen working hard. Listening to the old wolf, the labor cost of craftsmen in Chang'an City has doubled recently, and even the grain has risen by one or two cents per bucket. Not to mention the price of wood, stones, etc.
On the side of the original road, a road five times wider is being built.
The people of Qinwangzhuang are used here, as well as the farmers of Chang'an County who belong to the Qin Wang. Each skilled craftsman takes ten people, starting with a gravel foundation, then laying a triple clay, then pouring lime, and then using a hard earth pavement on top.
Li Yuanxing looked at it, and said in his heart that there was a road construction jishu in the Tang Dynasty, and what was different from modern times was cement.
But cement, it is indeed impossible to make it in a short period of time, not to mention that it will not, even if it is, in the absence of a complete industrial chain, the emergence of cement will only destroy the economic structure of Chang'an.
It seems to be getting better and better.
