Although Yuan Yan was held hostage by Shi Le at the beginning, he was lucky to survive in the end.

And he naturally became the representative of the original Xiongnu Han faction and entered Liu Tai's political system.

With him was Xu Guang, who was also a Han minister under Shi Le.

As for Zhang Bin, who was approved by Liu Tai, he was directly stabbed to death by the people when the courtiers under the command of Fan Shile went to Yecheng to take a turn.

Because Zhang Bin was the mastermind of Shi Le, after Shi Le's death, Zhang Bin, a leading figure who served Shi Le, no matter how talented he was, was directly regarded by the people as a traitor representative, and naturally no one sympathized with Zhang Bin.

In contrast, like Xu Guang, a civilian official who broke into Liu Tai's intelligence network, he decisively chose to take the initiative as a tainted witness, showing that he was in Cao Ying's heart and in Han, and jumped under Yuan Yan's hands.

Yuan Yan also thought that Xu Guang was an ordinary person who wanted to live, and seeing that he didn't do anything evil, and at the same time he also needed someone to help him sort out the faction left by Shi Le, so he accepted Xu Guang, but Xu Guang was not qualified to come here to eat hot pot with Liu Tai.

Liu Tai sat down at his own table, which included Wang Sang, Chu Yu, Cao Wei, Zhao An, Tian Yu, Xi Senjun, Yuan Yan, etc.

Others such as Zhang Song, Xi Jian, Wen Qiao and others are at the same table in Wenchen, and the other is Zhou Ping, Ge Xin, Liu Yao and other generals at the same table of military generals, and even Meng Dong Xie Fei is eating at the same table with Ge Hong and others.

Liu Tai said while eating, "Do you have any problems with next year's tasks and what help do you need?" ”

Wang Sang was the first to speak: "King, I have checked a lot of information these days, Xingyang Li Ju won more and lost less than Liu Yao of the Huns, and he is a strong enemy, and I also ask the king to replenish my armor and soldiers!" ”

"Uncle Wang, you are stationed on the front line, so naturally you are indispensable!" Liu Tai looked at Wang Sangyi and sold the old, and resolutely made a guarantee.

When Liu Tai said this, he came back to his senses and said to Wang Sang, "Uncle Wang, do you know Li Ju?" ”

Wang Sang said to Liu Tai: "It's not an acquaintance, it's just that I have dealt with it on the battlefield."

He was originally from Pingyang, and when Emperor Guangwen attacked Pingyang, he resisted.

Later, he couldn't resist and fled to Xinzheng, and was later appreciated by Xun Fan, and gradually promoted, becoming the current Sizhou Assassin History, Xingyang Taishou, and stuck at the forefront of the Jin Dynasty! ”

"Is it possible for this person to be recruited?" Liu Tai said straight to the point.

"If it is Liu Yao and the likes of the Huns who are in power, I don't think it may be, but if it is replaced by a king, you can try!"

Wang Sang said here, "However, don't have too many extravagant hopes, this person is firm and difficult to convince." ”

"It looks like he's going to go to Pingyang, Daigun, to see if there are any relatives of him.

However, there were many disasters in Pingyang, and the people were all migrated to Chang'an in Luoyang by Liu Yao, but it was not easy to find his relatives.

Let's record it first, Yuan Yan, after you take up your post in Bingzhou, you will go and inquire about it! Liu Tai said to Yuan Yan.

"No!" Yuan Yan heard Liu Tai's words but answered.

After Zhao An took the merger, he let Mo Han and Ji Yu stay in the merger, and Liu Qun because Liu Kun stayed in the merger for too long and his prestige was too high, so although Zhao An and Liu Qun captured the merger together, they still brought Liu Qun back.

Of course, nominally he was dispatched to Liu Tai's side as a housekeeper, and now he is also eating hot pot with Wen Qiao Xunxuan.

And Liu Tai is ready to let Yuan Yan go to the state to appoint and dismiss, as the representative of the former Han Dynasty, the position is too low, and Liu Tai can't snub him too much, after all, Yuan Yan has been mixed under the Xiongnu Han State like himself.

But Yuanyan's highest actual position is Qinghe Taishou, and it is not convenient to be promoted directly.

In this case, let him go to Bingzhou, which is not a developed place, to stay and do it.

After all, he is also good at dealing with complex situations, and he can't guarantee how much ability he can have.

But if he can maintain the relationship between himself and Shile, then he can naturally maintain the relationship between the Han people and other foreign races in the state.

Of course, even if he is not good to other aliens, it doesn't matter much to Liu Tai, as long as he doesn't make people angry and resentful, causing him to send troops to quell the rebellion, then this history of assassination is Liu Tai's accumulation of experience and political capital for Yuan Yan.

With this matter arranged, Liu Tai's eyes looked at Chu Yu.

Generally speaking, Chu Biao dominates internal affairs, and Chu Biao himself naturally knows best what is important and what is not.

Perhaps feeling Liu Tai's gaze, Chu Yu calmly said:

"At least before spring ploughing, all the workshops in Qingzhou, Youzhou and Yecheng need to give priority to providing steel farming tools as much as possible.

Although Shi Le began to persuade farmers to teach after he established himself in Yecheng, most of the land was encircled by the family, and the Qian people themselves did not think about working after becoming a master, and returned everything to the people at the bottom.

Although the farmland is not deserted, it is true that it has not been cultivated much, and with last year's war, a lot of land has been left barren. ”

"Give it!" When Liu Tai heard this, he replied decisively to Chu Yu, "By the way, what Quyuan plow, as well as Mr. Wang Pei's "Qi Min Yao Shu" summarized during his lifetime, and his students are also assigned to you to reclaim the land north of the Yellow River as much as possible. ”

Wang Pei was the eighty-five-year-old man who invited Liu Tai to establish agriculture when he was in Qingzhou.

He died at the age of ninety-two, but his "Qi Min Yao Shu" was finally outlined, and his disciples were responsible for supplementing the content, which gradually became one thick agricultural book after another, and now the disciples are trying to fill this agricultural work.

This book "Qi Min Yaoshu" is a bit similar to "Friends of Military and Civilian Talents", which is to write about what crops to plant, what kind of season to pay attention to, what kind of place, how to fertilize, and how to plant.

All in all, Wang Pei said that he was afraid that there were too many stupid people in this world, so this book "Qi Min Yao Shu" is to make even a fool, as long as you can cultivate and reclaim according to "Qi Min Yao Shu", that game can be harvested.

Although others are dead, according to the outline he listed, as well as the particularity of agriculture, future generations want to work together to write all the "Qi Min Yaoshu", to say the least, it will take ten years.

In fact, Liu Tai knew very well that after Wang Di's death, before the emergence of the next agricultural genius, all the agricultural accumulation in this era was basically to lay the foundation for the birth of the next agricultural genius.

As for the next agricultural genius, I am afraid that I will have to wait until Jia Siqian two hundred years later, and the only thing I can do is to set up an agricultural school in Qingzhou in addition to a special agricultural school where I am located.

If the Han Dynasty is not destroyed, Jia Siqian can also accept the corresponding edification as soon as possible.

After all, to a certain extent, this kind of elite who can integrate and improve productivity is the top talent who can really renew the life of the country.

In this era, I can't touch it, and I can't do anything about it!

At this moment, Chu Yu didn't know the melancholy in Liu Tai's heart, but at this moment, Liu Tai was willing to dispatch the steel just built in Youzhou Qingzhou and Yecheng to himself, and Chu Yu was already very satisfied.

Because he also found that steel is used in armor and weapons, which can be said to be urgently needed, but if it is used in the production of the people, it is even more like a feeling of Jingwei reclamation.

No matter how many metal farming tools you throw in, it seems that they will be consumed, and in the second year, you need to prepare a large number of metal hoes as a reserve.

Chu Yi was a little confused, aren't these hoes all metal? Aren't they all used to clear the land? Why do these hoes still burn up for various reasons?

However, in the actual process of governance, each county needs to prepare a certain number of hoes as preparation, and it is also necessary to repair the ironware by the blacksmith, which is inevitable.

And as long as resources are thrown into this direction, Chu Yu calculates and calculates, and always feels that it is not enough.

Of course, in essence, there are more usages, less usages, and as long as resources are smashed, there will be no time.

However, Liu Tai also understands that because he has just won Shile's territory, a large amount of land needs to be organized and reclaimed by himself.

In addition, the soldiers under his command and a small number of local government soldiers are also struggling to reclaim the land.

Therefore, for a while, all kinds of metal farm tools were naturally in short supply.

However, this boom in the supply of agricultural tools will stop in almost three years.

First, all the fields that are easy to be cultivated have been reclaimed, and second, the surge is mainly military land, ranging from 100 to 50 acres.

Third, some preferential policies for fields will generally stop in the previous year, and the consumption of agricultural tools will naturally be reduced at that time.

Therefore, Liu Tai can understand that Chu Yi is a little anxious about the people's spring ploughing at the moment.

After all, this piece of land north of the Yellow River is already one of the most suitable lands for cultivation in the whole of China.

At this moment, Wang Sang felt a little uneasy in his heart, but he didn't expect Liu Tai's front heel to promise him to make up the armor and soldiers, and the back heel was to dispatch all the iron resources to Chu Yi, but he looked at Liu Tai with a little bit of a blank eye for a while.

He said to Liu Tai: "King, don't forget to promise the armor of the old minister." ”

"Uncle Wang, the armor you want will naturally not be missing!" Liu Tai couldn't help crying and laughing,

"There was a little bit left over from the original scale armor forging, and all of it was sealed as a backup.

Send back the broken armor, and I will send you the new armor according to the number.

As for the armor you returned, it will naturally be sent to the forging department to be repaired, so that it can be used later! ”

"Thank you, King!" When Wang Sang heard Liu Tai's words, he finally relieved himself and breathed a sigh of relief.

"King, are we going to hand over a new ship next year? Can't the old ship be used anymore? When Tian Yu heard Liu Tai's words, he couldn't help but say to Liu Tai with a little doubt.

"What's the problem? Unhappy about the new boat, you, the governor of the navy? Liu Tai looked at Tian Yu and wondered.

"I'm naturally happy." Tian Yu sighed slightly when he heard Liu Tai's words, and then said,

"But in the past, we only occupied the three states of Youjiqing and turned the Bohai Sea into an inner lake, so we needed a fleet to escort us.

But now that the king has occupied the land of Hebei, our next target is Yanzhou Sizhou, but I feel that even if we need ships, we should mainly use small boats.

Why did I see that the delivered ship was a little bigger, which was inconvenient for inland sea navigation, and I couldn't help but feel a little incomprehensible in my heart. ”

"Outside of Kyushu, there is Kyushu, there are four seas outside the four seas, don't just put your eyes on the Central Plains, the world is very big, I hope you can become a lonely eye, take a look at the scenery outside China for Lone!" Liu Tai said to Tian Yu.

When Tian Yu heard Liu Tai's words, he was somewhat moved, but he still had to dissuade Liu Tai from such extravagant behavior.

However, Liu Tai continued, "However, the ships sailing in the inland sea have only been designed this year, and it is still too early for you to get them."

These ships are not all for you, and your decommissioned ships will be sold to coastal villages that want to buy them.

Let them use these big boats to go farther away to catch more seafood, and the people in the Bohai Sea can count on this day to get better and better!

In the future, not only fish, but also giant kun, I want to try it, but this is just a few sampans! ”

Hearing this, Tian Yu didn't say anything more, after all, it was linked to the livelihood of the people in Youzhou, and he could say more.

At this time, Su Jun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, after all, their Su family was reliably anchored in Liu Tai's shipping industry.

If the financial route is cut off because of Tian Yu's words, then he can decisively fight with Tian Yu.

"Zigao!" Liu Tai decisively called Su Jun.

"In!" Su Jun heard Liu Tai shouting and hurriedly stood up.

Liu Tai said, "Zigao, I heard that the ship is getting bigger and bigger, how much wood does this ship need?" ”

"Now each ship needs about 400 to 600 trees, and in the future, if you build a bigger ship, I'm afraid it will need thousands of trees!" Su Jun said to Liu Tai.

"In the future, how much wood you need to build a ship, how many saplings you need to plant!" Liu Tai opened his mouth and said,

"These hundred-year-old trees are not easy to grow, and I don't want the earth to be bare in the future!"

"Huh?!" Su Jun was a little stunned when he heard Liu Tai's words, and hurriedly said, "You don't know, the king, most of the trees needed for shipbuilding grow slowly to grow firmly, even if they are sown now, I am afraid it will take a hundred years to build ships!" ”

"Do you mean that the lonely man can't survive for a hundred years!?" Liu Tai couldn't help but mutter when he heard Su Jun's words.

Hearing this, Su Jun was so frightened that even his chopsticks fell, and he quickly knelt down and said:

"The king, the minister didn't mean that, the minister went back to plant trees, and asked the king to talk around me!"

When the people around saw this scene, they also fell silent.

And Liu Tai stood up and came to Su Jun, helped him up, and then said to his subordinates, "Change a pair of tableware for Zigao!" ”

Then Liu Tai said to Su Jun with a pleasant face: "How can I be a person who cares."

Zigao, you need to understand that everything runs in cycles, and if you simply ask for it from heaven and earth without knowing what to return, there will eventually be a backlash. ”

"The minister is guilty!" Su Jun couldn't help but bow his head and said.

"In this way, I won't bully your family, as long as your family can find other ships besides wooden boats that can also sail on the sea, naturally there is no need to plant trees, otherwise the trees your family has planted now are afraid that the only wood for future generations to build ships!"

Therefore, I will also promulgate in the future, that if you cut down trees to build ships, you need to plant the same kind of saplings, so as to avoid running out of trees in the future, until new materials are found to make ships! Liu Tai continued.

"The king's teachings are in mind!" Su Jun replied decisively.

"Look at what you do, keep eating, keep eating, whoever wants to drink, give me a drink!" Liu Tai looked at the silence of everyone, but he also hurriedly said to everyone.

Suddenly, the originally calm scene became lively again.
