Li Er actually said that Ming Yue was Li Lanshan's closest relative, which was surprising.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Even if it has been decided, it still needs an arrangement. Let's talk about business!" Li Yuanxing wanted to end this topic.
Wu Zhao shrugged her shoulders, indicating that she had no objection.
Li Er also sat down formally. The three of them had exactly the same things in front of them: paper, pens, and water glasses.
"Brother Imperial, the first thing I want to say is food!"
"Wu Lang said!" Li Er picked up the pen and prepared to write down some key points of what Li Yuanxing said.
Li Yuanxing opened his notepad:
"Brother, let's talk about the Tang Dynasty first. The Tang Dynasty currently has a population of only 12 million people, of which less than 40% are over 18 and under 40. This is a flaw in the development of the Tang Dynasty. Fortunately, Wu
During the De years, the Tang Dynasty became much more stable. According to the statistics of Chendi Rangzhou Prefecture, the population was born in the third to fifth years of Wude. After that, the population decreased a lot. The eighth year of Wude was even less than the third year of Wude.
Half of it!”
Li Er did not become emperor for nothing.
After listening to Li Yuanxing's numbers, Li Er said: "In the early years of Wude, Taixia and Chuping were born. Naturally, more children were born, but starting from the seventh year of Wude, when too many children were born, food shortages, Ding tax and other reasons also limited the number of children.
the birth of a population.”
"Next, the external population. The Eastern Turks, Mohe, Khitan, and Shiwei can almost add 6 million people to the Tang Dynasty. The population of Yiwu is too small to even be counted. Next, a big head will be added.
It’s something that the emperor needs to pay attention to, and that’s Lingnan. I’m not referring to the Han people in Lingnan, but those people who are called Southern Barbarians!”
Li Er nodded silently.
As early as the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it had already had in-depth exchanges with the ethnic minorities in Lingnan.
At that time, at least three million people were added to the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Now if the Tang Dynasty has managed this relationship well, then there will be five million people in Lingnan as a whole.
"I have written it down for my brother. This matter needs to be discussed in the long run!" Li Er did not dare to say it all in one breath. After all, Lingnan is not one nation, but more than a dozen different ethnic groups, large and small. Feng Ang's actual situation
The control area is not that big. Going to the southwest, there is at least a thousand miles to go deep into.
Li Yuanxing turned over a page in his notepad: "Brother Emperor, what I want to say next is what the Tang Dynasty needs most in order to feed so many people!"
"Food!" Li Er responded with a smile.
"Grain Minister Brother believes that there are three steps. The first step is to develop agriculture, increase the yield per mu, and increase the effective planting area!"
When Li Yuanxing said this, Wu Zhao raised his hand like a primary school student, indicating that he had something to say.
Li Er smiled and pointed at Wu Zhao: "Mingyue will tell you!"
"This is my proposal. The utilization of renewable energy, first of all, must vigorously develop biogas digesters. Biogas digesters are an industrial chain with countless benefits. The bright moon has its seal..." Wu Zhao said,
She went to look through her four boxes again, but Li Er quickly stopped her: "Mingyue, this proposal is good, Wulang's Qinwangzhuang is excellent."
"Your Majesty, the utilization rate of biogas by farmers in Qinwangzhuang is only 30%!"
Li Yuanxing also said at this time: "It is better to start transforming a village. The big exam is about to take place. Officials from all over the country will send students to Chang'an to take the exam so that they can see biogas with their own eyes, so that they can go back and promote it!"
"Okay, just follow Wulang!" Li Er has not fully read it himself. Since it is beneficial to agriculture, he must support it.
Li Yuanxing continued: "The second step in this agriculture is to develop sea fields and lake fields. Without damaging the water surface, fish can be raised and aquatic products can be grown. The output is also huge. After the transportation capacity is increased, it can effectively supplement the shortage of field production.
.The most important thing is to prepare for no grain tax!”
"No grain tax!" Li Er was very tempted.
"If you don't collect grain tax, you have to collect commercial tax. Merchants transport the grain everywhere and sell it. It's not excessive to pay 10% of commercial tax, but they don't collect tax from the fields. So the first contradiction is not tax exemption
, but sharecroppers and slaves.”
Li Er nodded, this is a problem that will not be solved in a few years.
It cannot be solved in a hurry.
"This matter is postponed!" Li Er's opinion and Li Yuanxing also agreed. There was no need to rush, and he did not dare to rush.
"The third point is that I believe that the land of Baiyue must be occupied!" Li Yuanxing showed his fangs again. What Li Er likes to hear most is that Li Yuanxing said that the land must be occupied. Topics such as opening up and expanding the territory are
The greatest achievement of all emperors in history.
Li Yuanxing continued:
"Baiyue is there, and what I like is food. There is rice all year round, and the farmers don't take care of the fields at all, and the yield is several times better than that of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, in order to protect the food of the Tang Dynasty, we must
In addition to grain, sugar, rubber and many other crops were consumed by tens of thousands of ships in the Tang Dynasty every year!"
"Zhan, Wulang, just come up with a plan!" Li Er fully supported.
Fight, feel free to fight, as long as it increases the size of Datang's map, it will be a great thing.
Wu Zhao raised his hand again. After a while, Wu Zhao must have important opinions as long as he raised his hand. Li Er signaled Wu Zhao to speak.
"The strongest commander in the battle against Baiyue is not Li Yuanxing." Wu Zhao was very serious.
Li Er laughed loudly: "Ming Yue is going to appoint a commander! If you tell me Mingyue, I will definitely consider it carefully!"
"Master Cabinet!" Wu Zhao's words stunned Li Er, but Li Yuanxing was thinking deeply.
When it comes to fighting against Baiyue, there is really no one in the Tang Dynasty who can be better than Mr. Cabinet. Mr. Cabinet’s son’s father-in-law died there. Mr. Cabinet has also personally been to the front line, and has done a very in-depth study of Annan.
With my understanding, I really want to beat Baiyue, and there is no second choice other than the cabinet master.
Li Yuanxing was silent, while Li Er was observing.
"What do Wulang think of Mingyue's words?"
"Brother Chen is thinking about how to persuade grandpa to kill less and slave more. Qin's general style is a bit ruthless. Baiyue is nothing to grandpa?"
Wu Zhao then added: "Li Lanshan's father died in Baiyue!"
Li Yuanxing glared at Wu Zhao, wondering why you are talking nonsense. But Wu Zhao continued: "Master Cabinet went down to earth privately, and no one rescued him. He only brought a baby back to heaven, and that was Li Lanshan. So Master Cabinet took Baiyue
After decades of research, I won’t tell lies in front of the Holy One!”
Li Er's eyes widened and he said with murderous intent: "That's it, the Emperor Xian will be the Marshal of the Southern Conquest, and he will have full authority to handle the affairs of Baiyue!"
Li Er is the person who protects his shortcomings the most.
Even if he is venting his anger on the Li family, he still has to give Baiyue a good look. What's more, Wu Zhao said that there is a personal vendetta first, and a famous general has studied Baiyue for decades, so it must have been there for a long time.
Superior tactics. Definitely no less effective than the box of plans for dealing with the Turks that Li Yuanxing brought over.
Therefore, the wise emperor Li Xin is definitely the best choice to take charge.
Li Yuanxing smiled: "With Master Cabinet's ability to lead the army, there is no place in the world that he cannot defeat. But the Tang Dynasty still needs to train the commander-in-chief of the era, so there must be a auxiliary plan!"
"Don't worry about this Wu Lang, Brother Wei knows what he is doing!"
Li Er is also looking forward to how strong this wise emperor is. At this age, someone who has studied the art of war for hundreds of years, how can he despise him!
Li Yuanxing continued to flip through his notebook: "Brother Emperor, the last discussion today is about industry and the environment. Mingyue is worried a lot. Li Lanshan can help her in this regard, but I don't care about it."
Li Er asked curiously: "What is this Li Lanshan's specialty?"
Li Yuanxing did not answer, indicating that Wu Zhao would answer this question.
Wu Zhao sighed:
"I am studying finance, and she is studying history. People who study finance must know all kinds of things, and only by understanding can they make money move forward. Li Lanshan studies history, and she not only studies the history of the Tang Dynasty, such as the Great Food
She knows everything about the Roman Empire. People who study history must also study people's livelihood, agriculture, finance, etiquette, music, poetry, and poetry. Moreover, she studies history, and the history of war is also history, so she understands military affairs, even as much as
She has studied Li Yuanxing, especially the military history of past dynasties, and the history of Chinese and foreign military affairs."
Li Erxin said, how many books do you need to read?
When Li Er asked the doubts in his heart, Wu Zhao replied:
"I have read about 8,000 sets of books with over a billion words, and I can never forget them. Li Lanshan probably remembers about 20% better than me, and she has read more books than me. Of the three of us, Li Yuanxing is the most
Bad, I’ve read at most two to three thousand books, and 100 million words would be pretty good.”
"Nonsense, I've read at least a billion words!" Li Yuanxing retorted.
Wu Zhao smiled:
"If story books like The Romance of the Three Kingdoms count, I believe it. Those story books that don't contain food you are looking at have millions of words each, so you have the nerve to make up the word count for that thing!"
Li Yuanxing was mute and smiled awkwardly. Knowing that Wu Zhao still saved face, Li Yuanxing only talked about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. He did not say that he read novels, but fast food literature with millions of words.
Li Er laughed loudly and was happy to see Li Yuanxing embarrassed.
Li Er was somewhat looking forward to the fact that Master Cabinet, the wise emperor, and a talented woman no less than Wu Zhao had come to the Tang Dynasty.
"Keep talking about industry!" Li Yuanxing quickly brought the topic back.
"The Tang Dynasty is now almost all military industry, which is the industry that serves the army. I think that people's livelihood industries have begun to develop, such as match factories, paper mills, civilian medicine factories, flour, soap, daily necessities, etc..." Li Yuanxing
After that, he said to Wu Zhao: "How about you help plan these factories!"
Wu Zhao turned his head: "No matter what, you just want to work hard for me. She can't be idle even when Li Lanshan is here!"
"I will give Li Lanshan the title of princess for my brother!" Li Er smiled, and then said to Wu Zhao: "Ming Yue is a third-class princess. She will be given the fifth class first, and she will be added after her merits!"
Li Yuanxing was obviously a little unnatural. Wu Zhao had sharp eyes and immediately shouted at Li Yuanxing: "What else are you hiding from us?"
Well, Wu Zhao clearly put her and Li Er in the same camp.
"I said, you are not allowed to mess around!" Li Yuanxing was a little nervous. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
