Chapter 15: That kid is holding back

Liu Che looked at Liu Qu in surprise and kept fiddling with the bamboo slips in his hand.

"That's what he said?"

"Your Majesty, it's true, if it weren't for the old slave who persuaded the young master on the grounds that there would be no one to cultivate if he let people go, I'm afraid he would really have to forcibly let them go......" Liu Qu was also full of embarrassment.

It is difficult to follow the emperor, and it is even more difficult to follow the emperor's son.

Especially Liu Ponu, an illegitimate son, can't say a lot of things, can't do a lot of things, and sometimes he doesn't even dare to make a complaint too obvious.

"This little fox ......" Liu Che suddenly had a smile on his face, and instructed: "You go and get their deed of sale, don't let that kid see it!" ”

Liu Che had already guessed why Liu Ponu did this, what else could he do except clear the suspicion?

Seeing that Liu Ponu could have this alert and vigilant awareness, Liu Che was naturally very happy in his heart.

On the other hand, the prince's recent performance has become more and more frustrating for Liu Che.

Among so many sons, Liu Che is more and more optimistic about Liu Ponu.

It's just that my image in his heart doesn't seem to be good, and his words and words reveal that I am an unkind monarch, and there will be danger at any time if I follow me.

You don't need your clever mind to think about it, am I that kind of person?

"What else is that kid doing?" Liu Che continued to ask, although he didn't know much, his intuition told him that Liu Ponu shouldn't just do such a thing.

"Your Majesty, the young master inquired about the price of the tiles, and later mentioned that he wanted to build a ......house for them," Liu Qubalabala repeated Liu Ponu's words one by one, without any personal views in between.

"As I expected!" A smug smile once again appeared on Liu Che's face.

Let's just say that Liu Ponu, this kid will not be so lonely, and there will definitely be a backhand in the future.

It's not that clever to say that this method is high, let's say he's low-level, but he's really useful at critical moments.

Give a house, give a wife, and even recommend you to be an official.

These are the most basic means of co-optation, and the kid saw that these potential 'threats' could not be sent away, so he thought about engaging in co-optation and division.

Liu Che was not worried at all that the Yulin Army he sent would be pulled away by Liu Ponu, and he even wished that Liu Ponu would quickly pull those people away.

The Yulin Army is the most elite unit of the Han Dynasty, and it is also the most loyal unit.

Each of those who can enter the Yulin Army has been strictly screened, and one of the hard conditions is that someone in their family has sacrificed their lives for the country, and the second is that they cannot be more than fifteen years old.

From the beginning of their entry into the Yulin Army, the emperor was responsible for all their needs, raising one and a half old children one after another, training them in combat skills, and when they reached their age, he would arrange for them to marry wives and have children.

After the martyrs, they are already extremely credible, plus they are supported to grow up and arrange a way back for them, after this series of operations, not to mention that everyone in the Yulin Army is full of loyalty, at least dare to say that there is no less than ninety.

If Liu Ponu could take the fifty feathers of the Lin army away and take it for his own use, Liu Che would not only not be angry, but would even applaud happily.

No matter what the final result is, at least Liu Ponu is a person who dares to think, do, and fight.

With this alone, he can add a lot of points to Liu Che's heart.

"When you go back, take another five hundred gold, just remember where that kid spent the money!" Liu Che said expectantly.

In addition to being happy, Liu Che thought of another question.

So he asked, "Did that kid say how to recommend them as officials?" ”

"I didn't say this, after the young master finished speaking, he assigned some things to everyone to do." Liu Qu shook his head.

"Oh? What's on the agenda? Liu Che suddenly became interested.

Liu Ponu also advised himself to know how to become a little transparent, so as not to be hated by the emperor, but in the blink of an eye, he had to recommend fifty people as officials.

Although it is not difficult to be an official nowadays, the premise is that you have real skills.

Of course, the Yulin Army has real skills, but their skills can only be used on the battlefield.

Liu Che always felt that this kid seemed to be holding back some bad thoughts and didn't say it......

"Gongzi arranged for people to look for clay, to find craftsmen who know how to burn bricks and tiles, and also asked people to collect human and animal feces everywhere, and even willing to spend money to buy it, and also asked the old slave to tell His Majesty that the young master wants to make some iron, and a hundred catties is enough, and he needs a blacksmith and a carpenter......"

Liu Che almost spit out a mouthful of old phlegm, and a hundred catties is enough?

Do you know how valuable iron is now?

Even the royal family can save it, and if there is a little superfluity, it can't be turned into a weapon.

A hundred catties of iron can almost be used to build twenty or thirty weapons when handed over to the master, although it is indeed not much......

"Give it to him! I'm going to take a good look and see what this kid can toss! Liu Che vaguely guessed what Liu Ponu was going to do.

Human and animal manure is not edible, and there is only one way left: farming.

If he had a method that could increase the yield of farming, he would have passed it on to the fifty feather forest army, so that they would have the capital to become officials.

After the imperial court passes the acceptance, it will definitely need to send people to various places to promote, if the imperial court wants to make achievements quickly, then it can only directly appoint these people recommended by Liu Ponu to be responsible.

It's just that I don't understand what he wants iron and carpenter for?

Liu Che shook his head, since he didn't understand, he simply didn't want to, and when he figured it out, wouldn't I know everything?

But before I can do that, I'm going to pave the way for this kid!

……

Looking at the several ministers who were summoned, Liu Che looked at Shangshu Ling Zhang Anshi expressionlessly.

Zhang Anshi walked directly to the small table next to him with a very good look, where pen, ink and bamboo slips had been prepared for him.

"I want to build a palace, and I have no way out after thinking of my meritorious deeds, and I plan to exchange a thousand stones of grain for a knight, you all say it, what level is the highest level?" Liu Che asked flatly.

Sang Hongyang frowned slightly, he wanted to refuse to build a palace, but he couldn't refuse to exchange grain for a title.

But with his years of experience and keen sense of smell, it doesn't seem that simple.

"Your Majesty, will it be too much for a thousand stones to change to one level?" Sang Hongyang said tentatively.

"Is it much? How does it compare to soldiers trading their lives for titles on the front line? Liu Che raised his head and squinted slightly at Sang Hongyang.

Liu Che's eyes made Sang Hongyang tremble suddenly, until now, even if he is the emperor's confidant, Sang Hongyang has never been able to bear the emperor's eyes.

"Level 5 doctor?" Sang Hongyang instantly realized that the emperor asked him not to bargain, but to cooperate with the singing, and hurriedly cooperated.

"I'm not so stingy!" Liu Che vetoed angrily.

"Then the tenth-level Zuo Chief?"

"Well, it works!" Liu Che nodded with satisfaction.

With Liu Ponu's bad idea, Liu Che also completely let go of his hands and feet in this matter.

The higher you buy, the more likely you are to make a mistake.

Even before that, Liu Che had already set a small goal for himself.

From the second year onwards, one percent will be killed in one year, fifty percent in three years, and ninety percent in seven years......

After laying the first thing, Liu Che immediately started the foreshadowing of the second thing.

"The Kanto natural disaster is very painful, although I have found a solution, but there is not much food in various places, and the disaster relief capacity makes me worried, I have thought about it for a long time, and I feel that I can't continue like this!"

"Spread the edict, all those who have the technique to increase production, can be reported to the government, by the government's statistical method to report, those who are selected, by the government responsible for sending people to Chang'an, where the verification of its method is reliable, according to the number of increase in production will be rewarded, the first rank, the marquis ......"
