A few spoon-wielding men whispered at the back of the line.

"What's going on with His Royal Highness the King of Jin?"

"How do you know, I have never seen a place where the emperor's relatives come to see our big-headed soldiers eat and sleep, I used to watch the soldiers practice in the school field and leave, why didn't His Highness take the usual path?"

"What? His Royal Highness just said that he wanted to add bedding to us? It's really fake, I'll just say that this futon is too thin, and the unconscionable officer will have to suffer from freezing in the winter. ”

"Who's to say it isn't? In this way, it seems that this King of Jin is a person who does practical things, and this is the first royal relative who knows how to control our eating and drinking Lazar. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, the Lasa people don't care about you, they can't give you and pee."

"You don't have a good word in your mouth."

"Wait, there's news again, His Royal Highness King Jin also said that he would build a house for us."

"Oh, yo yo, this is a living bodhisattva, you really want to build me a house, and I will follow him wherever His Royal Highness King Jin goes in the future."

"Guy who has no interest, you will nod your head if someone gives you some benefits."

"You are high, you are amazing, whoever really thinks about us as soldiers, I will be loyal to whom, and before the King of Jin avenged the grievances of the people, he directly killed the Kaihe envoy and the head of the Bai family, who can do this kind of courage? This is a person who really thinks about the common people, unlike Yuan Xiaoju's group of people who know how to form a party for personal gain, and deduct our military salary as a soldier all day long. ”

"Be quiet, don't die."

"What are you afraid of, I've been around people's mansions for several days, and I don't dare to put a fart, and I admire our Royal Highness King Jin."

"Why does His Royal Highness King Jin want to eat with us?"

……

The change of people's mentality is completed invisibly, and the effect of Yang Guang's way of transcending the times is immeasurable, and the kindness of his face and all the soldiers are like robes, and the intimacy brought by them is something they have never felt.

Yang Guang sat on the ground with all the soldiers, eating the meal cooked by the leader of the army today, the taste was very small, but the food was fragrant, and after eating, he wiped his mouth with his precious clothes, and looked like he mingled with everyone.

Yang Guang got up and said to all the soldiers: "Soldiers, I am Yang Guang, I came to see you today, I feel a lot, I have come too little, I don't know you well enough, I must come more in the future, just like today, eat with everyone and chat together." ”

"His Royal Highness King Jin, are you really building us a house?"

Yang Guang said very firmly: "Build, must be built, I have built a big city in Daxing City, I will use the latest technology to build a house for you, with glazed windows, blocking the wind, light can still penetrate in, spacious and bright, with thatched houses." ”

At this time, the leader of the group who had been discussing before excitedly said to the people around him: "You see, His Royal Highness the King of Jin not only cares about us eating and drinking, but also cares about us Lasa. ”

Li Kuan was a little embarrassed on the side, he didn't know whether what Yang Guang said was true or false, if it was false, it would be bragging in front of everyone, and when the cowhide was broken, everyone would be dissatisfied, but according to his understanding of King Jin, he didn't look like a person who liked to brag and talk big.

If it is true, then according to the description of His Royal Highness King Jin, how much does this house cost.

The crowd was skeptical.

Before leaving, Yang Guang said to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, I, Yang Guang, have always done what I say, and said that I want to build a house for you, I will definitely come, and I will let the craftsmen of Daxing City come over, start a workshop here, and build a house here." ”

"There's one more thing I must tell you."

"Do you all think that being a soldier is hard and tiring?"

Everyone was silent, but they knew by looking at their expressions that they all thought so.

Yang Guang suddenly said in a loud voice: "How can the family not be tired? How can the country not be bitter? But I also want everyone to understand that we are doing an extremely noble thing, you are the guardians of the security of the country and the people, you are extremely noble, from today I want to make being a soldier a thing that ordinary people envy, you eat well, dress warmly, live well, let everyone know the glory of being a soldier. ”

It is glorious to be a soldier, and these words make this group of big-headed soldiers proud.

Yang Guang's other other military camps were the same, and they all promised to build houses for others.

On the way back, it was dark, Yang Guang was about to vomit after eating several meals, Yuan Tiantian said: "Your Highness, why do you bother, you have promised to go down and build houses for others, how much money can you get." ”

"Your Highness, when did I make a loss-making deal?"

"What does Your Highness plan to do?"

"Daxing City is now built, Daxing City has many of our workshops and craftsmen, but Luoyang City has not yet, such a big piece of fat, how can you give it up, take advantage of this opportunity to build a house for the army, let the workshops and craftsmen of Daxing City transfer a part of it to Luoyang City, establish the same system as Daxing City locally, cultivate local talents, and take down all the infrastructure of Luoyang City."

Taking this opportunity to introduce the Construction Bureau, this is Yang Guang's purpose, and playing a signboard can also make him earn a lot of fame, the price is to pay money, why not buy fame with this money?

At this time, it is the best opportunity, he is still supervising the construction of the canal, the army of Daxing City and Yuan Xiaoju are unhappy, and he has the title of Da Sima, the emperor let go of himself to do things, then he must not take Luoyang City quickly.

"Your Highness, not only that, do you also want to build your own army?"

"Don't talk nonsense, we're not that kind of people, it's just that I'm a little worried about the current situation in the army."

"Why?"

"We use the government military system, founded in the Western Wei Dynasty, the most important feature is the integration of soldiers and farmers, peacetime for the peasants who cultivate the land, agricultural training, wartime in the army, the government soldiers to participate in the war weapons and horses are prepared, the whole country has a responsible for the selection and training of government soldiers, the government military system not only saves the country's military expenditure, but also guarantees economic and agricultural construction."

This is the biggest reason why the Great Sui can afford to raise so many troops.

Hearing Yang Guang say this, Yuan Tiantian asked: "Yes, Your Highness, you also said that the government military system has so many advantages, what are you worried about?" ”

"The basis of the government military system is the Juntian system, the Juntian system looks okay now, that is because the new dynasty has just been established, you see that the land assets of a big family like the Bai family will continue to increase, the more prosperous and stable the society, these resources will irreversibly flow to the elite class, relying on the government military system of the Juntian system, sooner or later will be destroyed, it should be said that the more prosperous the society, the faster it will be destroyed."

This is the first time that Yuan Tiantian has heard the saying that the more prosperous the society, the faster the destruction of the uniform land system, according to ordinary people's thinking, shouldn't it be that the more prosperous the society, the richer everyone is?

However, feudal society has its huge drawbacks, human greed has one and wants two, and with two it wants seventy, eighty or ninety, and the lifeblood industries of the people at the bottom will always converge towards the elite class.

Moreover, there is a high probability that there will be a big war in the north, and the war must die, and the dead must be replenished, and the border cannot be left unattended, and the military service is heavy.

"Shouldn't Your Highness think about how to circumvent land annexation?"

Yang Guang shook his head: "The good that violates human nature is wrong, and the evil that violates human nature is also wrong, respecting human nature, trying to frame human nature and not evil is already extremely difficult, it is impossible to prohibit it, my solution is to increase the industry, like the workshop, like the Construction Bureau, the future of clothing and all walks of life, and increase many jobs that can feed the people without land, which is the top priority." ”

To put it bluntly, it is to accelerate industrialization, turn peasant households into workers, and the next step is to siphon the economies of surrounding countries to feed the country.

Social prosperity will accelerate land annexation, but it will also accelerate Yang Guangyao's industrialization process, and what Yang Guang has to do now is to keep this acceleration process as balanced as possible.

At the same time, if you have money, you can raise soldiers, professional soldiers are the beginning of the road to a strong army, and all economic prosperity and cultural prosperity need strong military support.

If you have money and no guns, you are the granary, and you are talking about you, the Song and Qing dynasties.

Yang Guang's plan to strengthen the army was also put on the agenda, although we are now the world's great Sima, nominally always the second-in-command of the national army.

"Your Highness, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and you have to go back to Daxing City."

"Well, I've been out for a while, I have to go back, and I have to try the steam engine when I go back this time."

"Your Highness, I've heard you talk about the steam engine several times, what the hell is this?"

Yang Guang smiled mysteriously and asked, "Every day, have you ever seen boiling water?" ”

"I've seen it."

"What happens if it boils and keeps burning?"

"It's going to be on forever."

“……”

"What's wrong with Your Highness?"

"Nothing?"

Originally, Yang Guang wanted to say that boiling water would open the lid of the pot, but when he thought that most of the pots used now were still clay pots, it was difficult to open them, so he gave up.

"I'll tell you when I go back to Daxingcheng, boiling water is the first element of human civilization progress."

Yuan Tiantian said disapprerovingly: "Who wouldn't do this? ”

"Being able to burn and knowing how to burn are two different concepts, so I'll show you later."

Yuan Tiantian was still puzzled, and the two went back to the house in a carriage together.

And today's evening Luoyang City was shrouded in the orange sunset, a fast horse with a team of cavalry came to Luoyang City, and His Royal Highness the Prince, who led the cavalry, was returning with a look of resentment and anger at this time.

Yang Yong came to the city of Luoyang, and led his troops through the city gate to the Tomb Mansion.

The crown princess got out of the carriage behind and rushed in anxiously: "Father, father, father......"

Yuan Xiaoju came out and saw his anxious daughter, and his heart warmed: "Daughter, it's okay for your father." ”

"Father, are the rumors true? King Jin really dares to put you under house arrest?! ”
