Chapter 196: A Lesson from the Past

Li Wucun looked at the eleven teenagers in the middle of the village who were extremely skilled in using various tools, and nodded with some relief and replied to Zhang Zheng: "Hmm! Zhang Zheng muttered to himself: "It's a bit interesting to love and not attack." ”

"Huh~" An eagle chirp sounded, and then I saw a huge eagle swooping down from the sky, and then stood firmly on Li Wucun's shoulder.

Looking at this divine horse very Haidongqing, Zhang Zheng's eyes were so hot that he couldn't wait to immediately order the people in the house to go to Liaodong to catch one for himself.

Zhang Zheng looked at this Hai Dongqing, whose IQ was frighteningly high, and asked Li Wucun with some curiosity: "Is Hai Dongqing only available in Liaodong?" Li Wucun nodded and said, "Hmm! Zhang Zheng didn't continue to ask, but asked in a changed voice: "Are we waiting here?" Li Wucun shook his head: "No need, let them stay here to repair the house, just go to Weinan to meet when the matter is done." ”

"Okay." Zhang Zheng said hello, and then ripped off the jade pendant tied around his waist and handed it to Li Wucun.

"What is this?"

"Token, do you think that everyone can enter our government?" Zhang Zheng smiled and explained. Li Wucun groaned for a moment, stretched out his hand to take it, and then walked in front of Zhang Hao and handed him the jade pendant.

"Let's go!" Zhang Zheng saw that the soldiers had almost cleared the snow on the roof, and said to Li Wucun.

"Hmm!" When it comes, it is like thunder, and when it goes, it is like the wind. But even if Zhang Zheng and the others did not delay much time in Nanpo Village, it was still late evening when they returned to Chang'an.

Before Zhang Zheng entered the house, the housekeeper Lao Zhou greeted him. took the reins handed over by Zhang Zheng and said.

"Shaolang-kun, there are distinguished guests waiting for you in the house. The old man has not returned to the house yet, and Erlangjun is accompanying the guests. ”

"Got it, honored." After a little thought, Zhang Zheng knew who the distinguished guest was. Leaving a group of guards to the front hall, I saw the second brother Zhang Dasu chatting with a thin middle-aged man.

The two were talking meaningless nonsense, but Zhang Zheng could already see that there was impatience in the eyes of the second brother.

It's just that the status of the distinguished guest is really noble, so I have to accompany him all the time. Seeing Zhang Zheng appear in front of the door, Zhang Dasu's eyes lit up, and the main owner finally came.

Then he confessed to Yan Lide and turned around and walked out of the room. Zhang Zhengren arrived before he arrived: "Uncle Yan, thank you for coming to the house, and the little nephew is also guilty!" Yan Lide tugged at the corners of his mouth and replied, "Virtuous nephew is polite." He was already impatient in his heart, and he came to the Guogong Mansion with a dignified Shangshu and waited for this kid for nearly two hours.

It's getting dark, and this kid is only late now. If it weren't for the matter of the Firearms Bureau, His Majesty was too anxious, Yan Lide would have left long ago.

How could Zhang Zheng not know that Yan Lide was angry in his heart, but the affairs of the Mo family were equally important. can only be wronged, compared to Yan Lide, it is more important to become his descendant of the Mo family.

Zhang Zheng didn't say anything more, so he went straight to the point and said: "Uncle Yan is here for the matter of the Firearms Bureau." Yan Lide replied: "Yes, the old man is here to ask his nephew for a construction plan for the Firearms Bureau, and the old man still doesn't understand what he means, and he is afraid that it will be inappropriate to start construction rashly." It was originally the proper meaning, Zhang Zheng nodded and said: "The little nephew is already ready, Uncle Yan wait, the kid will go and get it." Yan Lide let out a "yes!" from his nose: "Hmm! "The things were prepared by Zhang Zheng a few days ago, from construction drawings to precautions.

Zhang Zheng spread out the drawings he had taken from the study on the table and began to explain them to Yan Lide.

"Uncle Yan, please see, this is the floor plan of the entire firearms bureau, here is the factory area, this is the canteen, this is the test site, this is the workers' activity site, and this is the family area......" Yan Lide looked at the entire firearms floor plan, and his heart beat fiercely.

This kid is going to build a city, does this kid know how much it costs to build a city like this?

But when he thought of His Majesty's instructions to follow Zhang Zheng's wishes, Yan Lide still held back the doubts in his heart.

With Zhang Zheng's detailed explanation, Yan Lide also understood the significance of Zhang Zheng's division of the Firearms Bureau.

But when he heard Zhang Zheng start to talk about the family area, he still subconsciously asked: "Slow, family area?" "It is also necessary to build a family area, according to this kid's meaning, the court not only has to manage the food, drink and Lazar of the craftsmen, but also the food, drink and Lazar of the families of these craftsmen.

This kid is really, he doesn't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are, doesn't he know how poor the treasury is now?

Zhang Zheng didn't seem to see the hesitation on Yan Lide's face, and he should arrive.

"Yes, in the family area, Uncle Yan won't think that these craftsmen can still ...... after mastering the core secrets of Datang" Zhang Zheng's words were not finished, but Yan Lide understood.

Some words are boring when they pierce the window paper, and it is easy to chill people. Yan Lide expressed his understanding and said to Zhang Zheng: "In this way, this family area is still necessary, the virtuous nephew continued. Seeing that Yan Lide was fine, Zhang Zheng smiled: "No, that's probably it." Then he rolled up the drawing and handed it to Yan Lide.

After Yan Lide took it, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Virtuous nephew, do you know the current situation of Datang? ”

"Knowing, it's because you know, that's why you have to finish these things first." How could Zhang Zheng not understand what Yan Lide was worried about, it was nothing more than that he was worried that the country was too poor to bear so much additional financial expenditure.

Indeed, when the Tang Dynasty's finances were close to exhaustion, Zhang Zheng still wanted to build such a firearms bureau comparable to a city.

In addition to the Firearms Bureau, there is also the Tang Royal Academy that has not yet been completed. No matter who it is, this is a very capricious thing, not to mention Yan Lide, who is on the front line.

But Zhang Zheng knew that even if these things were not done, Datang's finances would not improve. Only when the monarchs and ministers tighten their belts together and do these things well, can Datang make a qualitative leap from the roots.

Just as the new establishment of China in later generations did not give priority to the development of the economy, but to the development of heavy industry and nuclear.

Coming to Datang, Zhang Zheng has countless experiences to learn from, standing on the shoulders of giants to see the world, so that Zhang Zheng has a more long-term vision than Yan Lide, a native of Datang.

Just like today's Nanpo Village, Zhang Zheng was greatly touched. But Zhang Zheng knew that even if he took all the money from the Guogong Mansion and distributed it to them, they would still return to their original state after a period of time.

If you want everyone to be fed and clothed, you can't just make a few inventions and get a few new decrees.

Rather, it is to fundamentally change the social structure of Datang. The Tang Royal Academy is the seed that changed the Tang Dynasty, and the Firearms Bureau is the nutrients and soil to ensure the growth of this seed.

Otherwise, the big delivery is a lesson from the past.
