…

Since Li Cun led the army to the west in the 25th year of Hongwu, although Li Biao still has the title of the crown prince of the Daqian Dynasty on his head, in fact, whether it is the local power of the Daqian Dynasty, or the local military power of the Daqian Dynasty, or the local financial power of the Daqian Dynasty, all of them are in Li Biao's hands, so it is not an exaggeration to say that Li Biao is already the local emperor of the Daqian Dynasty at this time.

What's more, although Li Cun has not officially passed on his position as emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty to Li Biao because he wants to maintain the connection between the local territory of the Great Qian Dynasty and the various vassal states of the Great Qian Dynasty, in fact, Li Cun no longer cares much about the local affairs of the Great Qian Dynasty.

Of course, this does not mean that Li Cun has completely cut off contact with the Daqian Dynasty itself.

In fact, every year Li Cun would send a large amount of financial revenue to the Daqian court, and at the same time, Li Cun would also take a large number of war horses, weapons and equipment, grain and grass from the Daqian Dynasty itself, as well as trains, railroad tracks, all kinds of materials and so on.

Although there is no clear relationship between buying and selling, in fact, it seems to have formed a complete set of military-industrial complexes, which has created a very considerable financial income for the local area of the Great Qian Dynasty, and also created countless jobs for the local area of the Great Qian Dynasty, which has greatly promoted the development of the local area of the Great Qian Dynasty.

The key is that Li Cun gave all the captured 30% to the Daqian court, which must be far more than the value of the war horses, weapons and equipment, grain and grass provided by the Daqian Dynasty to the front line, as well as trains, railroad tracks, and all kinds of materials.

This also made few people in the local area of the Daqian Dynasty have a grudge against Li Cunxi's expedition.

More importantly, every time Li Cun conquers a place, he will do at least two things:

One is to force the place to use the script of the Great Qian Dynasty, that is, Chinese characters.

The other was to force the use of the banknotes of the Great Qian Dynasty as currency.

People of insight all understand that the former can greatly promote the culture of the Han people, so that the whole world will have a sense of belonging, identity, and worship for the Daqian Dynasty, and then accept the rule of the Daqian court.

As for the latter, needless to say, just look at the things that a certain beautiful country did in later generations by relying on the fact that its national currency was the currency of international settlement, and we can know how great the benefits this was for the Daqian court, which controlled the right to issue paper money of the Daqian Dynasty.

Not to mention, after Li Cun used the railway to connect all the three states of Asia, Africa, and Europe, the local goods of the Daqian Dynasty could be sold all over the world to make huge profits.

Therefore, although Li Cun's expedition to the west is more for Li Cun's other sons, it also has absolutely huge benefits for the Daqian Dynasty itself.

Coupled with the great sense of honor and pride that Li Cun brought to the Han people.

This also made Li Cun's westward expedition highly praised and supported by the local mainstream society of the Daqian Dynasty.

In this regard, Li Biao often sighed: "My father was born not a thing in the pool, and he destroyed Song Hu and Jin Jianxia in pieces, leveled the four regions, and traveled millions of miles. Heaven will be a great Kyushu and a Chinese and foreign, so that the father and the emperor choose its domain, the way, to exhaust its military forces, although it is said that the great harmony of China and Yi, at home and abroad, different ways, all for the emperor's land, eternal unseen. ”

Li Biao knew that he would never be able to compare with his father, who was too dazzling.

But Li Biao was not discouraged by this, let alone gave up on himself.

Li Biao thought very clearly, throughout the ages, there have been so many emperors and overlords, but only his father can conquer the whole world, such a person, not to mention that he can't compare, no one can compare.

However, although Li Biao knows all this, this does not mean that Li Biao will live in the shadow of his father for the rest of his life.

On the contrary, Li Biao felt that since his father had passed on such a glorious stage to him, he would have to bloom with a touch of brilliance that belonged to him Li Biao no matter what.

At the same time, Li Biao also knew very well that his intelligence was far inferior to that of his father, so he must not change the national policies formulated by his father, and not only that, but he also vigorously promoted those national policies formulated by his father.

But then again, this does not mean that Li Biao is willing to do nothing in his own life, and can only be a king who guards the city.

It's a bit winding.

In short, Li Biao felt that while he was developing the national policies set by his father, he also had to have his own ideas.

As a result, under the auspices of Li Biao, many highly creative practices began to be introduced into the local area of the Great Qian Dynasty, and the local history of the Great Qian Dynasty really opened a new page.

And Li Biao's first proposition is that the talent first promotion system, to put it bluntly, Li Biao does not look at his background, does not look at who his parents are, and does not look at which family he came from, only talent is promoted.

Benefiting from Li Biao's promotion system of talent first, the local area of the Daqian Dynasty did not have a shortage of talents because the emperor changed from Li Cun to Li Biao.

And this is only one of Li Biao's achievements, and it is not the biggest achievement.

Li Biao's biggest achievement is that he has done one thing that Li Cun is not confident to do.

This matter has to start with Li Biao when he was a child.

Once, a researcher at the Royal Research Institute, who was studying stone paint, suddenly took a large pile of white powder to report to his father that this white powder extracted from stone paint (that is, oil) had the miraculous effect of making crops grow rapidly.

Li Biao clearly remembered that his father's face at that time was half surprised, and half was resistant.

Later, what puzzled Li Biao was that after his father rewarded the scientific researcher, he allowed the scientific researcher to continue his research, and at the same time forbade the scientific researcher to disclose the research results to anyone.

When the scientific researcher left with some disappointment, Li Biao asked his father: "Father, is this thing not a good thing?" ”

His father was silent for a long time before he said, "No, this thing is called chemical fertilizer, which can make crops grow several times, dozens of times, or even hundreds of times. ”

At that time, Li Biao didn't quite understand how terrifying these numbers were, he just asked again in puzzlement: "In that case, why did my father refrigerate this fertilizer?" ”

His father said leisurely: "This fertilizer has miraculous effects, but it has endless troubles." ”

After thinking about it, his father added: "This is a shortcut, but it will get narrower and narrower." ”

Then, his father took the initiative to explain to Li Biao in detail: "If you take this shortcut, in a short period of time, the grain will explode to the point where it cannot be sold, and the imperial court will even worry about the grain and hurt the peasants, and people will even waste a lot of food every day, and the problem of hunger will no longer be a problem for a while." ”

When Li Biao heard this, he naturally asked, "Isn't this a great thing?" ”

When his father heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "If this matter is sustainable, it will naturally be a great thing." But the problem is that the chemical fertilizer is refined from the stone paint, although the stone paint stock is a lot, but it is used a little less, so it must be used up when it is exhausted. Once there is no stone paint, there will be no chemical fertilizer, and when the land is gone, the agriculture that relies on chemical fertilizer will surely fall apart. ”

"What's more terrible is that the more the fertilizer from the stone paint is used, the worse the fertility of the land, and it will be used more and more with the pesticides also from the stone paint, which will lead to more and more agricultural residues, at that time, grain, fruits and vegetables will be infected by agricultural residues, and then will lead to health problems in people's bodies."

His father looked at the fertilizer in front of him, and continued with a look of disgust:

"Embarking on this path, in the long run, will not only restrict the development of agriculture, but also leave a huge hidden danger to the health of our children and grandchildren, and the key is that it is not sustainable."

"If we go down this road, the fertilizer will be used more and more, so that in order to maintain the same yield, we will have to put in more fertilizer, which will have a serious dependence on the fertilizer, once one day, the stone paint is used up, no, even if the production of the stone paint is reduced, so that the supply of fertilizer is not available, people are afraid that they will suffer more severe famine, and then the people who will starve to death will be like the carp crossing the river."

Li Biao seemed to understand and asked: "In this case, why did my father still let people develop this thing?" ”

His father did not answer, but asked, "Does my son know what is the basis of all development?" ”

Li Biao shook his head: "I don't know." ”

His father replied, "It's grain." ”

After a pause, his father then said to him as if he were talking to himself: "Only when people are full will they develop the economy, develop industry, and obey the rule, otherwise, there will only be constant turmoil." ”

Speaking of this, his father looked at the fertilizer helplessly, and said: "Although the fertilizer has endless troubles, if it is a last resort, you can drink to quench your thirst." ”

Afraid that Li Biao was too young to understand, his father explained to Li Biao in detail: "Today, I have corn, sweet potatoes, potatoes and other high-yield crops, and I have people vigorously develop high-yield crops, in the short term, it will definitely not be necessary to use this fertilizer, but now the population is increasing year by year, thirty or fifty years later, I am afraid that my Daqian will exceed 100,000 people, at that time, if my son has not found a way to solve the food problem, he will use this fertilizer." ”

"It's better to drink to quench your thirst than to die after only fifty or seventy years...... Cease. ”

Li Biao was very impressed by his father's unwilling, helpless and unwilling look at that moment.

Li Biao couldn't help but ask his father: "Father is a genius, is there really no solution?" ”

His father smiled: "There are also methods. ”

Then, without waiting for Li Biao to ask again, his father told the emperor:

"There is a kind of ecological agriculture that can greatly increase the production of food without so many hidden dangers."

"The so-called ecological agriculture is the large-scale input of compressed stone paint products to agriculture, that is, it no longer relies on external resources to develop agriculture, but relies on the natural cycle of land and nature to maintain soil fertility and increase food production."

"This method can also be called the integration of planting and breeding."

"If you put horses in the land where you grow food, the horses can eat a lot of weeds in the field, which saves the time for weeding, in addition, because of the horses, you can also produce a lot of horse manure, which is one of the best agricultural fertilizers, using horse manure as fertilizer, for the yield of crops, you can greatly improve the yield of crops, and the key will not break the fertility of the land."

When Li Biao heard this, he asked even more puzzled: "The investment is small, the income is high, and the fertility of the land is not broken, so why doesn't my father use this method?" ”

His father shook his head and said, "My son doesn't know anything." ”

"This method is not original, but ancient, using animal carcasses, wheat or rice stalks, pigs, horses and cow manure as fertilizer, can provide comprehensive nutrition for crops, fertilizer efficiency, but also increase and renew land organic matter, improve the soil."

"But it also has a big disadvantage, that is, the fertilizer efficiency is slow, and the yield is limited."

"In short, this method is far less effective than the chemical fertilizer extracted from stone paint, and it is difficult for people to resist this temptation."

It may be that his father had expectations for Li Biao at that time, so he took the initiative to talk to Li Cun about organic fertilizer:

"China has a long history of using organic fertilizer, and the grass and wood ash left on the land after farmers burn it is a very good organic fertilizer."

"The people in the city who collect manure also use it as organic fertilizer."

"There are also many things that can also be used as natural organic fertilizer, such as sugarcane bagasse from sugar production, some residues from human food, and leftover hay eaten by animals, which can be made into compost."

"With these fertilizers, we can also greatly increase the production of food and restore the fertility of the land."

"By the way, I should remember not to grow a single crop in one area, which will lead to the occurrence of insect infestation, you can use intercropping, that is, a variety of crops are planted together, such as beans and cereals together, tomatoes and corn are planted together, which can effectively prevent insect pests."

"In fact, I am already promoting these, and I am also ordering people to develop biofertilizers and pesticides that do not use stone paint products."

"But this is a long road, unless a person with great perseverance, can not walk through this road, I am anxious, this life has been overtaking in the corner, it is difficult to stick to this matter, I hope my son will be able to do what I can not do in the future."

As his father said, although his father understood everything, his father wanted to do too many facts, and this matter required unremitting perseverance, not a holy decree that could produce results, so his father did not do much to promote this matter.

In the end, it was Li Biao who vigorously promoted this matter.

As a result, in the past ten years, the grain output of the Daqian Dynasty has increased by almost five times, especially the output of root crops such as sweet potatoes and potatoes, which has increased almost tenfold.

This provides the most basic guarantee for all the propositions put forward by Li Cun, and it can even be said that the reason why Li Cun has been able to expand his territory is also because the Daqian Dynasty itself can provide food for the whole world.

The key is that Li Biao has not used much chemical fertilizers, pesticides and other petroleum products with huge hidden dangers.

This was a great achievement even for posterity.

It is precisely because of this that Li Biao has received a very good evaluation.

All in all, Li Biao, who was immersed in a great passion, tirelessly drove the native of the Daqian Dynasty, which had adapted to peace, and brought the native of the Daqian Dynasty to the high-speed development of the pasture again.

Li Biao's passion is surprising, and he even shows a bit of idealism that belongs to the poet, which makes people have to admit that he is indeed not a mediocre monarch, and his ability and talent have really bloomed until this moment.

Li Biao inherited all the fine traditions created by Li Cun, he also reused new people, started reforms, and he was resolute but not conservative, steady but daring to innovate.

Although it is impossible to complete the modernization process in Li Biao's hands, the road to modernization has been broadened by Li Biao.

People often use words such as "tiger father has no dog son", "His Majesty has chosen the right crown prince", "the crown prince will be a generation of saints in the future" and other words that do not hesitate to praise Li Biao.

Li Biao listened to these words and felt that his unremitting efforts over the years had not been in vain.

Li Biao said to himself: "Lone has to work harder!" ”

However, suddenly one day, when Li Biao was reviewing the recital, he spurted out a mouthful of blood and stained the recital on his hand red......
