Twenty-six years of Yuan Heng.

For the people of Datang, the biggest change over the years should be that some states and counties around Luoyang, it seems that many people have begun to stop farming.

Or rather......

It's not that they don't farm, but they spend at least half as much time working in the fields as before.

And if you want to say, they don't farm anymore, then what are they going to do?

Obviously!

With the prosperity of the entire Luoyang business, countless opportunities have been born in Luoyang City.

For example......

If you do a good job of wonton, you can open a wonton shop in the city.

If you can't do it well, then it's okay, you can go and be a tea doctor, pour tea and hand water to others.

Other than that......

Even in this Luoyang City, there are many more performers, counterfeit medicines, and jugglers than before.

Of course!

This should not be something that ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty can do casually.

But there is one, which should be the easiest for the people of Datang to do!

That's right!

That is where the station and wharf outside Luoyang City are.

Every day you can see a large number of coachmen and porters, which are generally the surrounding states and counties, those who do not farm.

If you come up and ask him, is this a coachman or porter profitable?

Then he will answer you, that is, to earn three meals a day.

Li Zhong asked.

But......

It doesn't seem to be bad.

Of course......

In the end, Li Zhong still had to ask whether it was his own food money for three meals a day, or the family's food money for three meals a day.

In fact......

This question is a bit embarrassing.

All I can say is......

If you are stronger, have more things to hum, or have horses and tools, then you will earn the whole family three meals a day.

And if you're a little thinner, you have fewer things to hunch, and you don't have tools, then you're probably just enough to support yourself.

Li Chong once met a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old who was doing this kind of work.

In the end, the answer was that the other party should be able to feed one and a half people.

Other words......

He is just barely able to support himself, and then the rest of the time, he can save a little bit of his wife's capital.

But you're talking about supporting a whole family with this work......

It still feels a little difficult.

At that time, after listening to the other party's answer, Li Chong looked at the other party affectionately.

At least......

In the eyes of the other party, it seems to be so.

Li Chong could only sigh at this time in his heart, sure enough, the cattle and horses of the prosperous world, this is not bad at all.

Even if Datang is much better now, for the people at the bottom, it is barely able to eat.

And......

Being able to eat enough is already quite a happy thing.

Of course!

There are also many people who have participated in other jobs.

Or even the next one that will be completely out of production.

For example, when you go to a so-and-so dyeing workshop, you go to work as an apprentice for someone else.

In terms of this, it should be higher.

But Li Chong thinks that this is the most, maybe it can feed a family of five at most.

Even......

….

Maybe a family of five is a little choking.

Of course, if both men and women can have a job, or if women are also responsible for weaving and weaving, then there should be some subsidies for the family.

Other than that......

If you have the land at home, you can also give it directly to the steam engine, and if you do that, you may be a little richer.

Of course!

In addition, there are some people who make a lot of money by planting some vegetables and fruits and selling them in Luoyang City.

Merely......

Generally speaking, this kind of people at the bottom who are short-sighted and have not seen anything about the world should have little to do with it.

On the contrary, it may be the behavior of some families, or rich families.

Li Chong can only say that he is vigilant that everyone grows fruits and vegetables, not food.

And if you want to say that in Luoyang City now, who is the most nourishing.

That's of course the fat head and big ear businessmen and rich people.

Because they don't have a lot of resources at hand, the sources of information are also very extensive, and they have friends everywhere.

So just find a place, buy things back at a low price, and transport them to Luoyang City to sell, and the money in hand is directly turned over several times.

Regarding this phenomenon, Li Chong can only say that he has nothing to say.

After all......

This is also a relatively normal business practice.

If they don't make money by doing such things, then how can they pay the coachmen and porters at the station and dock.

It's just that......

Whether or not to set a minimum standard of income is a question.

Of course!

In fact, antiquity itself has a minimum standard, or even a standard that has always been fixed.

Merely......

Whether this standard should be changed now and seek more benefits for the people at the bottom is a question.

Anyway.

Now the people of Datang can carry out flexible employment more fully and extensively, which is still good in Li Chong's view.

And then there's this brewery.

In previous years, Li Chong didn't feel much of it, but this year, after walking outside, it seems that the winery has become a lot more.

No way......

The world's goods, as well as grain, are all being transported to Luoyang.

So......

Luoyang can indeed be more luxurious here than other places.

As for other places, what is the situation, Li Chong can only say that he should still be relatively clear in his mind.

And then in the end, Li Chong could only express a sentence of emotion:

Thanks to the fact that I live in Luoyang now!

Twenty-six years of Yuan Heng.

On the occasion of his own eighty years old.

Li Chong was also thinking about whether to take another concubine himself.

Well, it's normal for men to have this kind of thought.

It's just that......

This thought was only fleeting.

After all......

He's eighty years old, and he still wants to have a face.

It's a pity that he himself doesn't know how many years he has left.

If you have to live for another twenty or thirty years, then how boring you should be without a beautiful woman to accompany you.

The twenty-sixth year of Yuan Heng, winter.

I feel that Luoyang should be nothing serious, and Li Chong is also a person who went back to Chang'an.

Of course!

said that he was alone, but in fact, he followed three or five followers.

Li re-entered the Zhaoling Tomb and went to meet Li Er and the eldest grandson, the Empress Dowager.

Even......

Li Chong also lay down and tried the burial chamber where he was going to be buried after he died, and felt the cold atmosphere here.

If it weren't for the fact that there were still some regrets left, he really wanted to die.

Pity......

Now he can't die, after all, although he is now eighty years old, he is still a little useful at the age of eighty, he can still lead Datang to become stronger.

It's just that......

You say, what else can he do now?

This, to be honest, Li Chong can't say it.

It can only be said that there is an old family member, if there is a treasure.
