Li Shimin's back was slightly stiff. Although his younger brother was often unreliable, he would never lie about this kind of thing. He turned to look at Zhang Guo, who had a simple and honest face, and asked warmly: "Mr. Zhang, have you estimated the storage capacity?" How much is the quantity, and how difficult is it to mine?" I don't know how many people of the large-scale migration across the ocean have adapted to the water and soil there. If there are too many losses, it will take a few years to say. Datang is very short of people, not just the lack of people. There is a shortage of people who can read and write, but there are also people who are farming and working... I need to remind my younger brother that some words are best delayed for a few years.
"Your Majesty, the mountains there are steep and the rivers are winding. If you want to pan for gold, you need to make a lot of preparations." Zhang Guo did not forget Li Yuanying's analysis at that time. He took out the golden abacus from his sleeve and explained softly.
"Not only do we need to build houses for the miners, but we also need to build roads and bridges to ensure logistical supplies. We also need to arrange a sufficient number of doctors to ensure that miners or their family members who are sick can receive timely diagnosis and treatment." The aboriginal people there are really good. In the future, the people of the Tang Dynasty who migrated will become the real owners of that vast land, and of course they must plan and construct their own land carefully.
We are not bandits or pirates who make a living by robbing. We only do one-time transactions after robbing. The good things in the Corn Continent are not only gold.
Li Shimin rubbed his fingers gently and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It's good to have a plan. With a plan, many things can be done step by step.
The younger brother has been running around outside and has never settled down to deal with trivial matters. He doesn't know that negligence in small things may make serious work fall short.
Tang Jian and Wei Zheng were both in their old age and were not suitable to follow their younger brothers on the sea. Cen Wenwen was too cautious and was afraid that he would become the governor of Zhenzhou or even Yizhou. Fang Renyu had fewer letters in the past two years, but the goods he shipped back were not. It's getting richer and richer... He looked at Li Yuanying and said after careful consideration: "Ma Zhou is extremely cautious and speaks tactfully. With him by your side sorting out the priorities of affairs, I can also manage politics in Chang'an with peace of mind." My younger brother should not speak too tactfully. If he is too tactful, he will pretend not to understand. Don't be too straightforward. If he is too straightforward, he will make a fuss... I haven't been to the Xianling Mausoleum for a long time. When I return to Chang'an, I will stop by and chat with Aye. , His Yaoer is so good at traveling that he can have a dream when he is fine, so as not to travel too far and become a pirate or an islander.
"Brother, let's just arrange it. I don't have any objections." Li Yuanying filled the soup from the seafood pot that had just been brought over. It was a palm-sized lotus-shaped celadon bowl. The snow-white soup was sprinkled with green onions and coriander, and he placed it in front of Li Shimin. He lowered his lips and smiled lazily.
"Anyway, I'm not the one doing the work. I'm only responsible for appreciating the scenery and beauties. I'm lucky to have someone who can help take care of things." At the age of fifteen, in the eyes of most people, he only has preliminary rights to discuss matters.
Those brothers and nephews who went to fiefdoms or became governors or governors when they were around ten years old were all done by subordinate officials. Of course, if the subordinate officials did not do well, they would bear the blame. Who made them princes?
For especially creative princes like the 15th and 20th brothers, subordinate officials will be pushed out to take the blame, and their performance evaluation will be at least below average: betraying public affairs to private interests, and their positions will be abolished. Usually, they will be under the title of "juguan decoration". Fraud, greed and corruption.
Just because the rules of the examination stipulate that those who fail the examination will be dismissed. Li Shimin: "..." Even though it was the truth, when Shu Zi said it so calmly, a certain person would still be so angry that his words made him feel tight and short of breath. He especially wanted to wave the thorn sticks again to teach him how to behave!
Wei Zheng looked at Ma Zhou, and saw that his face was calm, without any anger or agitation... He then looked at Yang Shidao and Yu Wenshiji. The former had nothing to do with him, and the latter had nothing to do with his face. All it takes is to directly engrave: Your Majesty is wise and everything he says is right.
After three years in Yizhou, Yuwen Cheng became more...mellow. Fortunately, His Majesty did not arrange for him to follow Prince Teng.
"Your Majesty, there is a letter from Xu Jieyu." Zhang Ananda took the box from the little chamberlain's hand, walked towards Li Shimin, and reported softly in a voice that only he could hear.
During the past three years, Xu Jieyu favored the harem and never interfered in the affairs of the previous dynasty. Many people said that she had the demeanor of Queen Wende. Some people even secretly speculated that His Majesty would most likely establish a queen again. A certain family would not know if she had not been established, but a letter every day was her exclusive favor.
Li Shimin nodded slightly and said casually: "Put it in the dormitory. There is no need to send it here again." Anyway, there will be nothing wrong with the letter. Either the flowers have bloomed or the leaves have fallen, either the incense has been made or the tea has a new flavor. It’s quite interesting to read occasionally, but it’s too pretentious to write about it every day.
"Mr. Zhang, according to you, don't we need to build villages and towns in the Corn Continent first?" Yang Shidao just recovered from the many explanations, turned to look at Li Yuanying, and asked.
"Prince Teng, how does the speed of construction there compare to that of Izumo Ginzan?" The gold and silver produced by Izumo Ginzan are of high purity and good quality, and there are plenty of reserves. But even so, Prince Teng didn't get quite as much. We must ask clearly about his evaluation before we can tell His Majesty that Yuzhi will be sent there.
Being away from Chang'an, Shouchun should be able to be more cheerful. He lives in a small courtyard and refuses to go out... The princess was so angry with her that she wanted to marry Yu Zhi and have a concubine, but she was stopped by someone and she hadn't talked to His Majesty yet.
Your Majesty is already preparing to posthumously crown San Hu as the King of the Nest, but he just needs to tell the world that your Majesty will not be happy if the princess marries his legitimate concubine at this time.
I couldn't explain it clearly, so the best way was to send him away. Three or five years later, when she returned to Chang'an with her child, the princess' anger naturally flowed from east to west and never returned to the west.
"The area there is about the same as that of the Tang Dynasty after it expanded to Suiye City, but there are more deserts and plains there, which is suitable for large-scale development. The aborigines mainly grow wheat, corn, sunflowers and various beans. For specific purposes, Mr. Sun needs to find time to conduct field surveys." Li Yuanying heard from Li Shimin's words that the Tang Dynasty was really short of people and it was best to postpone the gold mining matter, so he brought the topic to agriculture.
"When the Jinyang Bridge is repaired, we can lay a railway and transport the grain, wood, birds, animals and various treasures there back to Chang'an. It will be faster and safer than the sea transport." Building roads and bridges requires more work. For craftsmen, the time can be postponed, and the frequency of sea transportation can be arranged to be two or three times a year, mainly to transport food.
Li Shimin's eyes lit up when he heard that there were many plains. Pingyuan is great. Pingyuan can use the farm tools and equipment from Tengzhou to save a lot of manpower and harvest more food.
As for building roads and bridges, the reform of the system can be put on the agenda. The three-year rotation system and the five-year rotation system can be used alternately... Yunhe Mansion's orders can also take turns to go to the Corn Continent. He asked warmly: "Mr. Zhang , do you know where Mr. Yuan is at this time?" Zhang Guo: "..."...
