Chapter 1063: Investigation

Just like when Li Ke left, when he came back, a large number of people still began to gather on both sides of the road. Only this time, because of time, only the people nearby rushed to both sides of the road.

And Li Ke couldn't really go all the way to Chihai City, so many people came over, Li Ke could only stop every other distance, when passing through the village, and chat with the people around him.

Li Ke knew very well that they didn't pursue much, they just wanted to see him, although this delayed Li Ke's progress, but that's all he could do, he didn't know when he would come to Qinghai next time, so Li Ke simply slowed down his pace.

Instead, just investigate all the way to the past.

The current official road is different from the later generations, the current official road must pass through the village, try to connect most of the villages in series, the current Datang even the current official road connecting all the villages can not be completely completed, not to mention the same as the later generations, specially built some national highways, highways.

Of course, the main line of the official road must go directly to Chihai City, or even Ruoqiang City further west, and then try to connect a large number of villages in the process, and there are many branch roads on both sides of the main road, like a spider web to completely connect these villages.

And all the people are very conscious, after they saw Li Ke, they dispersed separately and will not continue to follow, because this will cause a large number of people to be congested, which is obviously not good for the safety of His Highness.

Baicaowan Village.

There is a river flowing near here, and the vicinity of the village used to be full of all kinds of wild grasses and traditional Chinese medicine, so it was named Baicaowan.

By the time Li Ke passed by, more than 1,000 people had gathered in this village, which originally had a population of only 120 households, and many of them had come from nearby villages that were not on the main road.

When Li Ke entered the village, a large number of people had already gathered at the entrance of the village.

"Hello Your Highness!"

"Hello Your Highness!" Before Li Ke rode his horse into the village, the bold shouts of the people sounded at the entrance of the village.

Different from the people in other places, the people of Qinghai are more familiar with Li Ke, after all, His Highness has been here for almost a year, and they already know His Highness very well, so they are naturally much bolder.

"Hello everyone! I'm relieved to see how you're doing now. Li Ke said with a loud laugh.

Everyone laughed embarrassedly, "Your Highness, let's take a walk around the village." The village chief at the entrance of the village stood at the front and said expectantly.

"Let's go in and see how you're doing." Li Ke said with a smile.

"Yes! Your Highness please! The village chief was instantly excited, and all the people in Baicaowan were excited, but no one rushed over.

"Oh, by the way, I'll introduce you to someone." Li Ke said with a smile, and after speaking, he directly beckoned to the carriage behind.

On the carriage, Li Yan, who saw this scene, also jumped out of the carriage with a smile and walked in this direction.

After Li Yan came over, Li Ke smiled and stretched out his hand to hold Li Yan's hand and said: "Come, let me introduce you, this is my wife and your princess Qin, I believe that many of you should know her, she is Li Yan's little lady who also managed Qinghai for a year after I left." ”

"I've seen the princess, the princess is good." And all the people saluted, and said everything.

"You're welcome, everyone, we're not outsiders anymore, are we?" Li Yan said with a smile.

When Li Yan came over, Li Kecai walked towards the village and asked, "In which year was this village completely completed?" ”

"Back to His Royal Highness, it was the complete construction of Baicaowan Village two years ago, and there are currently a total of 120 households, each household is allocated 100 acres of land, and Yongye Tian is 50 acres." The age of serving as the village chief is not very old, and it looks like he is in his thirties at most.

"Are the villagers here migrating from within the Tang Dynasty, or are they herders from here itself?" Li Ke continued to ask.

"Back to Your Highness, there are 87 families in Baicaowan Village that are herdsmen who have migrated from outside, mainly the families of the soldiers stationed in Qinghai, while the rest are local herdsmen who are willing to give up their nomadic life and turn to farming." The village chief replied immediately.

"By the way, you see, I haven't asked you what your name is." Li Ke said with a smile.

"My name is Zhao Lin, Shuangmulin." The village chief said with some excitement.

"Good job, you can see from the data in the village that you have made real efforts in this regard, and you also migrated from outside?"

"If you go back to Your Highness, yes, the minister also migrated from outside."

"Well, these houses are well built, quite regular, are they all rammed adobe?" Li Ke looked at these neatly built houses and asked.

"Yes, when we built it, we specially asked people to plan, mainly to try to select some places that are not suitable for farming to build villages, and then the villagers' houses were planned at the beginning, so that the land can be saved to the greatest extent, and the other is to be able to support as quickly as possible in case of danger."

"There are still a lot of wolves, bears and other wild beasts in Qinghai, and when the house is being built, because there is no shortage of stones in this vicinity, the foundation is laid with stones, and the waist wall is as high as the waist wall, and then there is a wall made of adobe made of rammed adobe mixed with straw, and there is no problem to live for decades."

Zhao Lin obviously knew all about these things, and said quickly.

Li Ke nodded, although it is an adobe house, there is nothing bad about the adobe house, after the foundation is laid, there is no problem at all to live for decades.

Li Ke naturally wouldn't ask them to burn any bricks or anything like that, there was no need, more than a thousand years later, there were still many houses in the countryside before Li Ke crossed over.

When the people themselves have the strength, they will naturally find ways to build and renew better and bigger houses.

And now, the houses are good enough.

Now the exterior of these houses is neatly smeared with rammed earth mixed with wheat straw.

After entering the village, Li Ke noticed that the roads in the village were very smooth.

"Well done, these roads, if you can find some river sand and gravel nearby, you can pull them back and pave them onto them, so that they don't get muddy even on rainy days." Li Ke said with a smile.

"Now Datang has just begun to develop, and the country's strength is still a little weak, so for example, these village roads and other aspects can't help you for the time being, you yourself have to be more diligent, and we will live a prosperous life, do you know?" Li Ke said with a smile.

"Yes. Your Highness. We all know it. The villagers surrounding Baicaowan all spoke loudly.
