Li Shimin's question Liu Mu hesitated for a long time before nodding: "Yes!" ”

Peng Hai was confused when he heard it, he didn't understand.

Li Shimin explained: "Xiao Mu said to his father that he would show his father the beginning of the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty. The king thought that the beginning of this prosperous era was not the change of these squares in Chang'an City, but the wealth of the people was increasing, and the large treasury of the household department became rich. ”

"Second brother, tomorrow is a big comparison of brocade and clothing. Then three years later, the top ten famous papers, the top ten famous pens. The Tang Dynasty is a vast land with different cultures. There are also poems and operas from all over the world. Coming down, different cultures, different customs, and different diets in different places, there may be ten famous dishes in the future......"

Li Shimin laughed heartily: "Well said, for my Tang Dynasty, I will replace wine with tea today." ”

Liu Mu still has a sentence to say, and Li Shimin may not be able to understand it at this time, that is, to stimulate consumption, so that the prosperity can really come.

At present, what ordinary people in Datang consume is only to survive.

Clothing, food, shelter and transportation.

Yanagi believes that these four things alone will increase a hundredfold in ten years.

Peng Hai just drank two cups of tea and retired, he knew very well that his identity was already a great honor to be able to drink two cups of tea here, His Royal Highness King Qin was destined to become the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Peng Hai guarded his own proportions.

After Peng Hai left, Li Shimin signaled his entourage to stay on the periphery.

"Xiaomu, Fang Gong also has a paperwork, which is very long, and it can be summed up in one sentence. Qingzhou began to have barren fields. ”

Li Shimin only said one sentence, and Liu Mu understood what was happening.

"Second brother, there are many people who are willing to work in the workshop, because they earn more than farming. Therefore, in addition to maintaining the ration and paying the land tax, some farmers are unwilling to take care of it, and only let the grain be as much as they want because of growth. But Juntuntian is different, they are planting with heart. ”

Li Shimin nodded, and Liu Mu went straight to the truth.

"Second brother, let the farmers gather their fields, such as hundreds of hectares or thousands of hectares into a collective. The big farm works, and then the person in charge of the farm is about the same as the workshop work, and it is believed that there are people who are willing to work in the field. ”

Li Shimin knew that Liu Mu had not finished speaking, and motioned for Liu Mu to continue.

Liu Mu smelled the fragrance of tea and said slowly: "Second brother, we need slaves right now. ”

Li Shimin smiled, all he wanted to listen to was a sentence.

Then Li Shimin asked, "Where are the slaves?" ”

"There are almost 1.4 million households on the peninsula, and they are a little bigger. Then I estimate that there may be more than the peninsula. The Eastern Turks have a large population, and not to mention the tribes in Liaodong, they are all small tribes. ”

"Go on."

"Why are all small tribes in Liaodong, because the pasture is so big. If all the grasslands of the Eastern Turks become the Tang Dynasty, then the grasslands are large enough and a small tribe has a small population, and there can be millions of sheep. ”

"The Turks, to be destroyed." Li Shimin only said this simple sentence.

Liu Mu lowered his voice again: "Second brother, do you know Tianzhu?" ”

"Of course, Buddhism comes from Tianzhu. There are tens of thousands of miles from Datang to Tianzhu. "The map that Li Shimin understood was that all the way to the west, after the Western Turks, then to the west, and then to the south was Tianzhu. In Li Shimin's heart, the distance of Tianzhu is as far as Rome.

Liu Mu smiled: "Tianzhu is not far southwest of Shudi, and their population is more than that of my Datang." ”

Liu Mu This is definitely not nonsense, according to the statistics of later generations, from the beginning of 400 AD to the 1st millennium AD, the population of Tianzhu is the largest in the world.

Haha, hahaha!

Li Shimin smiled and patted Liu Mu on the shoulder a few times, but he didn't say a word about Tianzhu.

Liu Mu knew that Li Shimin was tempted.

Compared with the silver of Wadao, Tianzhu's large population of tens of millions is what Li Shimin prefers.

Li Shimin didn't mention Tianzhu, and changed the topic: "The four counties north of Chang'an, the birth rate of the population, the safety rate of children." are the heads of the entire Tang Dynasty, and you will give the second brother a detailed document when you turn around. The second brother is detailed in one or two. ”

"Yes. I asked each of the four county magistrates to write one, and I will summarize it again. ”

"Good."

Li Shimin was about to tell Liu Mu about the Su Mo Yan Ta when he suddenly heard someone shouting outside, and more and more people shouted, wave after wave.

Li Shimin waved lightly to the people guarding the door.

Soon, the person in charge of the investigation came back and reported: "Your Highness, the people outside are shouting 20,000 times. After inquiring, it was the auction house that auctioned the porcelain kui and the tea kui together, and it was the Qinghe Cui family who auctioned this treasure. ”

When the entourage reported, someone was waiting by the door and entered with Li Shimin's permission.

"Your Highness, colt. Just now, Qinghe Cui's porcelain and tea kui began to encapsulate, and announced that this was a gift from Qinghe Cui's to Princess Rencheng, and it was shipped to Yunzhou from now on. ”

After hearing this, Li Shimin smiled and waved his hand, signaling that the person who reported could step back.

Yanagi also smiled. "It seems that there is no way to refuse."

"Yes, you and I will each repair a book, let Qinghe Cui bring it with us, and this matter will be settled." Li Shimin is also persuading Liu Mu.

Qinghe Cui's work is already quite obvious, and sending tea and tea sets means that the daughter of Qinghe Cui's to be married is offering tea gifts, admitting that her status in Rencheng Wangfu is lower than Liu Ruyu.

Yanagi couldn't refuse anymore and immediately wrote a handwritten letter.

If you refuse to do so, you will be tantamount to turning your face.

Qinghe's daughter to be married is now because of Li Daozong's marriage before, who dares to marry the real wealthy family. But it would be too humiliating to make the daughter of the family, even if it was just the daughter of the branch house, an old girl.

Qinghe Cui can't afford to lose this face.

When Liu Mu and Li Shimin wrote the letter, Chang'an City was more lively than the festival, although it had nothing to do with the ordinary people, but the people were very happy.

People kept coming in to report to Li Shimin and Liu Mu on the latest situation in Longqingfang.

Li Shimin and Liu Mu wrote the letter, and Liu Mu instructed someone to clean up the pen and ink, but Li Shimin said: "Write another warrant, either tomorrow in the Chang'an Daily, or now order someone to pass it to all squares." Take out a part of the luxury tax to help the old and weak in Chang'an, you must know that this tax is under your control. ”

"Okay." With a stroke of the pen, 10 percent of the luxury tax was used to fund medical care, and 10 percent was used to open schools in Chang'an. "Send it to the library, and they'll print it out as planned. Tomorrow Chang'an Bao will see the newspaper, and if you want to make it public today, you can just say that the details will be seen in the Tianbao. ”

"Order!" Although it was Li Shimin's entourage, he still respectfully took Liu Mu's handwriting.

Li Shimin asked, "What kind of school is it?" ”

"Night school, so that the people of Chang'an can learn a technology. The owners of each workshop will select artisans to return to work, but they are also donating some money to the night school. ”
