It took more than half an hour for Li Shimin to come late, and he didn't come by himself, but the six departments of the three provinces came.

The team was huge, and there were dozens of carriages alone. After Li Shimin got off, Li Shen hurried over with someone to greet him.

"I've seen Ayer." Li Shen and Lu Dingniang stood at the front and saluted.

"I've seen Your Majesty."

"Old ten, your road is really good, not to mention wide and smooth, and you are not afraid of the erosion of rain and snow," Li Shimin praised the road from Huangzhuang to Chang'an.

The main thing is that the road is not bumpy at all.

"Aya, in fact, if we in Datang can, we should build this kind of road. The road is wide enough to pass more carriages, and it is hard and does not need to be repaired from year to year. Li Shen began to talk about the benefits of building roads.

"Alas, it's good, it's just that the court can't afford it. There are more than 10,000 roads in Datang. How can there be so much money? Li Shimin shook his head. He also thought, but the court really didn't have any money.

"Aye, I can help pay for the repair, but I need the right to collect this road for ten years." Li Shen thought of building a highway.

"Oh? The treasury doesn't have that much money, do you? Li Shimin asked curiously

"I don't have one, but I can repair one first, and then charge for it on this road, and slowly repair the others. Someday I'll be able to finish it all. Li Shen shook his head and said.

"Charge, how to charge, do you have to pay for your way? What is the difference between this and scavenging people's fat and people's ointment? Li Shimin disagreed when he heard the charge.

"Aya, we'll talk about the details later, didn't you come to see the stove today?" Li Shen didn't elaborate, there are still many family officials here, and Li Shen doesn't want to share his plans with them.

Seeing that Li Shen was reluctant to elaborate, Li Shimin also knew that the occasion was wrong, so he nodded;

"Okay, let's go into Zhuangzi and have a look."

When you enter the Zhuangzi, you can see that the chimneys of every house are smoking, and the smoke is curling. Li Shimin did not turn on the main road, but went to other streets.

Then I casually found a family and walked in, this Huangzhuang used to be Li Shimin's own, and many of the family members who fought with him back then.

Li Shimin walked around the house and took a look, Li Shen's Zhuangzi are all unified system, two acres of houses, all of them are free, and the people can't have any requirements, if you have a request, you will pay for it yourself to build it yourself.

"Your Majesty." Suddenly, an old man came over, fell to his knees with a pop, and shouted at Li Shimin through the guards.

Li Shimin took a closer look, this person was in his fifties, only had one left arm, the right sleeve was empty, his face was full of wrinkles, and he looked a little familiar.

However, Li Shimin can be sure that this person must have followed him to fight.

Li Shimin did not hesitate to take a few steps forward,

"Villain, King Qin's Mansion, Zhao San, the guard of the Family Mansion, has seen Your Majesty." Zhao San kowtowed to Li Shimin excitedly.

"Hurry up." Li Shimin personally stepped forward to help him up, this is an old man, the guards of the Qin Wangfu Family Mansion were all in the Wude period, at that time Li Shimin was still the King of Qin, and he led troops everywhere to quell the rebellion.

"What year did you retire?" Li Shimin asked

"Back to Your Majesty, the villain Wude retired due to injury in the seventh year." Zhao San replied.

"Seven years of martial arts, almost twenty years. It's really hard for you. Li Shimin touched Zhao Sankong's empty right sleeve and sighed.

"Serve Your Majesty, and the villain will die."

"How are you doing now?"

"Thanks to His Majesty's care, the villain retreated to the Huangzhuang, married a wife and had children. Later, His Majesty gave the Imperial Village to His Royal Highness King Ji, and King Ji heard that the villain was injured in the battle with His Majesty.

His Royal Highness King Ji was merciful, built a house for the villain, and gave the villain 500 wen a month for living expenses. How can the villain He De let His Majesty be so loving,

If Your Majesty has another war, the villain is willing to follow Your Majesty into battle to kill the enemy. ”

The more Zhao San spoke, the more excited he became, and he shed two lines of tears. The people of this period were still very simple. Whoever is good to them is grateful.

"You were born and died for Datang, these are what you deserve." Li Shimin was very satisfied with Li Shen's approach.

Zhao San is a guard of the family office, and his main function is not to go into battle to kill the enemy, but to protect Li Shimin, and use his life to help Li Shimin block arrows and knives when Li Shimin is charging into battle.

Although Li Shimin didn't remember, it was certain that Zhao San's arm must have been broken for him.

Seeing that Li Shimin was also a little excited, Li Shen hurriedly went up and said:

"Don't worry, Aya, I'll take care of them, let's take a look at the stove first."

In fact, Li Shen didn't expect that this Zhao San was actually an old man from the former Qin Palace, but this is better, and Li Shimin's credibility will be higher after reading it.

After hearing this, Li Shimin followed Zhao San into the inner house. Don't look at the only two acres, but it is also a three-entry house.

Zhao San lived with his eldest son, and Li Shimin asked Zhao San to take him to the residence to have a look.

When he entered the room, Li Shimin felt a hot air in the room. The room was simple except that there was a stove near the window in the room,

Li Shimin took a closer look at the stove burning brightly, Li Shimin leaned closer and took a deep breath, and there was still some taste.

"Zhao San, is your stove always burning?" Li Shimin turned his head and asked Zhao San

"Back to Your Majesty, the villain's stove will generally burn in cold weather, usually just chop some firewood to burn the kang, the prince is kind-hearted, we don't spend money to burn this honeycomb coal,

Usually, when it is burned, you can go to the back mountain to collar. However, we all know that this thing will be sold for money in the future, and if you can save a little for the prince, you will save a little. Zhao San replied honestly.

Li Shen said that he was also strangely moved, what a simple peasant,

"Don't save it next time, it's not worth a few dollars, Zhang Da turned around and said to the other Zhuangzi, just burn it, this king has money." Li Shen patted his chest and said magnificently.

Hearing this, the ministers pouted.

Li Shimin tested the temperature with his hand again, and saw a small crack in the window next to him, and asked.

"It is said that charcoal is poisonous, aren't you afraid of poisoning?"

"Back to Your Majesty, I was actually scared at first, but then the housekeeper said that the palace itself used it, and the prince was much more expensive than our gold, so we also used it.

Usually as long as there is a smell in the house, we just open the window a little bit, and there will be no smell after a while. In particular, the bigger the fire, the smaller the flavor. ”

Li Shimin touched the kang with his hand again, and the tentacles were warm.

"Let's go, let's take a look at the other homes."

Zhao San sent Li Shimin to the door, full of gratitude.

Li Shimin went to another street and chose one, which was similar to Zhao San, which made Li Shimin very pleased.

"If the world is like Huangzhuang, how good it would be, the people have no worries about food and clothing, live and work in peace and contentment, and the Tang Dynasty will be peaceful and peaceful."

After seeing a few, Li Shimin couldn't help but look at the houses on both sides of the street and sighed.

"Aya, in fact, this kind of small courtyard can be built for more than 20 yuan, and the ordinary craftsmen in our workshop have 500 yuan per month, which is six yuan a year.

They don't have to buy food, they can usually eat meat every three or five times, they can save more than three times a year, and they can build a house like this in seven or eight years. "Li Shen's house can be said to be equivalent to a small villa.

In later generations, if you want to build a villa in the countryside, you can't afford to build it for seven or eight years of office workers.

"You mean to develop commerce so that people can work, so who will farm the land?" Li Shimin said.
