Li Er and the others were a little puzzled, didn't farming and harvesting grain start from people? Isn't it how many people grow how much food? After all, there is a limit to the acres of land that a person can cultivate and take care of, even if he knows that there are thousands of acres of fertile land in front of him, but he can't cultivate it alone.

"Auxiliary? What do you mean?

Isn't popularizing fairy food to ensure that every household has fairy food to grow?

Could it be that this three-percent gap is not harmful to Datang? Li Er was puzzled.

Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "I'm afraid it's not a harm, it's the auxiliary machine that thinks of some benefits, if it can solve the problem of Sancheng barren land, Datang has a lot of benefits." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said with a smile: "What Lao Fang said is extremely true, and the minister is exactly this idea.

We have set a three-year dormant plan, hoping that after three years, the soldiers will be strong, the horses will be strong, the food and grass will be abundant, and the eight directions will be calmed in one go.

However, according to the minister's calculations, the harvest of another season of immortal grain after the popularization next year is not necessarily safe, after all, there are many people in Siyi, maybe we need a protracted war, and the longer it takes, the more grain and grass we need.

At that time, Yang Guang set up three huge granaries, but he was still disappointed in the face of Goguryeo, so the problem of grain and grass should not be careless. ”

Li Er nodded and said, "In that case, what good ideas do you have?" Let's put it bluntly. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head, "The minister doesn't have any good ideas, it's just that in the face of this huge area of wasteland, the minister is a little distressed."

If you want to solve it, I'm afraid you still need Hou Ye to take action, because the iron ox invented by Hou Ye can greatly increase the speed of farming, which is more than ten times more efficient than one person and one ox, if every household has an iron ox, I am afraid that even if there are ten times more wasteland, it will not be a problem. ”

"Yes, good way, we have all seen that iron ox, it is definitely a sharp tool for cultivating the field."

Many people chimed in.

"How can this be so easy? Datang Iron and Steel production has not yet been raised, and at present, Iron Bull can only be supplied in limited quantities. Li Er sighed.

"Since it is a lack of population, then the population should be increased, Datang is currently stable, you can implement a policy of encouraging childbirth, and the imperial court will come forward to encourage childbirth, if each family can have three or five more, it will not take more than ten years, it will be inexhaustible." Li Jiancheng suggested.

Of course, everyone knows this truth, but more than ten years? We want to solve this problem within a year, but we can't wait more than ten years to take revenge and destroy the country.

"Why don't you invite the Hou Ye to come, he is always full of tricks." The eldest grandson Wuji said.

Yes, please ask Bai Fan directly, after all, whenever there is a big event, Bai Fan always has some ideas that others can't think of.

Li Jiancheng glanced up at the eldest grandson Wuji, and always felt that there were some changes in this matter today, it seems that this guy has a ghost, is it possible to come up with something moth? Counting my son-in-law? With one of your relatives, do you dare?

An hour later, Bai Fan came to the Council Hall, although the servant Gao had hastily explained the affairs of the Council Hall, but seeing a group of people scratching their ears and cheeks, Bai Fan still felt funny.

"Jane, you're here.

I have encountered a problem, next year the immortal grain will be implemented nationwide, but according to statistics, Hebei, Hedong, Shandong, and even Henan, because of the perennial war, the lack of population, there are large areas of wasteland left, is there any way to develop and utilize these wasteland? Li Er said anxiously.

The reason why Li Er is so concerned about this issue is because he is afraid that his great cause will be postponed, after all, he has been on the throne for five or six years now, although he is only thirty-five years old and in the prime of life, but the time for an emperor to make contributions to the world is only twenty years at most, his dream is very great, and he does not want to delay for a quarter of an hour.

After hearing this, Bai Fan immediately jumped and dodged: "Your Majesty, you can't be like this, the steel of the Tang Dynasty will be distributed by me, when the output was insufficient in the past few years, we used it to make all kinds of industrial machinery, but we can't let you use it to build iron cattle farming."

There is such a thing as wasteland every year, and I haven't seen the court care about it before.

Besides, with immortal food, the people don't have to go hungry and cause famine, why are they greedy to plant so many fields? ”

Li Er sighed: "I also know this truth, but the Tang Dynasty has decided that the ability to resist disasters is not strong, if you can grow more food, even if there are any major natural disasters, there will be a little more insurance."

Besides, as soon as the three years are up, we will have to fight abroad, and the more food we have, the better. ”

Bai Fan hasn't understood yet, what kind of play is Li Er playing?

At this time, the eldest grandson Wuji stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the words of the Marquis of Lantian are reasonable, the Tang Dynasty is now in ruins, and the Hou Ye is dedicated to the development of commerce and hundreds of industries, which is the foundation of the country's strength."

As for the problem of wasteland, in fact, it is still a population problem, this can not be rushed, can only be in accordance with the law of the King of Jin, vigorously encourage childbirth, think about more than ten years later, the Tang Dynasty is prosperous, the population has skyrocketed, it is a good time to rise. ”

This one?

Li Er nodded and praised, logically speaking, this is indeed the case, this is also a virtuous circle that Bai Fan has always adhered to, but how did you ask the question today? Are you the one who compromises in the end? I always feel that my brother-in-law is a little strange today.

Bai Fan looked around and found that everyone had different expressions, some were still pondering countermeasures, some were at ease, and some had strange eyes, including his old father-in-law Li Jiancheng.

Thinking about it carefully, the elder Gao reminded himself of the words of the servant on the road, today's topic is the problem of wasteland utilization, and the eldest grandson Wuji has led it to the iron bull again, and now he has introduced it to the population, this is what he wants to ......

Okay, you old fox dead fat, you dare to calculate me? Bai Fan sneered in his heart, who gave him the courage to do this? How dare you go around in such a big circle to mention such a thing? Aren't you afraid of death?

He scolded in his heart, but Bai Fan didn't care about it on his face, and immediately smiled: "Population problem? Why does this take more than ten years? Ben Hou's beggar gang disciples are millions of people, and they can't solve all the wasteland, but it's not a problem to be able to take down 30% of it, and it's an honor for the beggars to be able to get 30% more grain for the country. ”

Li Er was overjoyed, "Haha, okay, I almost forgot, there is still a new force under Jian Zhi." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "No, in this way, the beggars of the Hou Ye will all devote themselves to the Tang Dynasty cultivating the common people, wouldn't it be ......?"

The eldest grandson Wuji said this, how do you feel that it is a stealing concept? Bai Fan only said that he would let the beggars help his disciples to farm, but he didn't say that he wanted to become the common people of the Tang Dynasty.

"Hahahaha, Zhao Guogong, you are wrong.

This is a great opportunity, the beggar disciples were originally the people of the Tang Dynasty, because they were poor and desperate, they could only beg on the road for a living, and now the Tang Dynasty is prosperous, and the beggar disciples have returned to their hometowns to live as farmers, and they have a good life of self-reliance, who wants to be a beggar who looks up to people's breath?

Your Majesty, since the development of Datang is on the right track, the minister decided to go back and disband the beggar gang, so that the millions of gangs living on the streets can all return to their homes to farm, Datang can reduce the burden of millions in one fell swoop, and there can be millions more excellent farming people.

This is also a symbol of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, a great good thing. ”

Bai Fan deliberately said that the snort of the Yangren was heavier, and in the past, he called the eldest grandson Wuji as Wuji's brother, but now he has become Zhao Guogong, obviously treated differently, and everyone present is a human spirit, and everyone can hear the dissatisfaction inside.

The eldest grandson Wuji complained bitterly in his heart, sure enough, Jianwei will report to Lantian Hou, this is not bad, even if he does it vaguely, the other party can think of it with a little speculation, what about the demon, he is still known as the old fox? It's really in vain.
