Hearing that the soldiers of the Shence Guard could read and write, it surprised everyone present.

Qin Qiong continued:

"In the early days of the Qingheyu training camp, many of the veterans who came here had a team leader, or even a team leader. Liu Mu used a method to let these people sign up by themselves, and those who knew how to read had the opportunity to become the head of the group of 200 people. Those who don't know how to read, the participating team is recommending themselves, and then the test is a soldier's formation, a small formation, and martial arts. He called this Xiao Wuju. ”

"Feasible." Du Ruhui was the first to express his support.

Letting outstanding people participate in examinations similar to the imperial examinations among the original soldiers was also a kind of examination for selecting talents.

Qin Qiong said again: "There is one more thing, the Shence Guard soldiers from the Qinghe training camp ......" Qin Qiong stopped, because after he knew the news, he also felt incredible, maybe useless, but very amazing.

After hesitating, Qin Qiong said: "All the Divine Guard soldiers are literate. Those who are the least literate can read a thousand-character text, and there is no problem in writing family letters and military newspapers. Originally, the minister thought that the literacy of ordinary soldiers was useless, but the trend of God Cewei had become a trend, and literacy in the training camp was one of the training subjects. ”

Is it useful for big-headed soldiers to be literate?

In fact, Liu Mu himself doesn't know this problem, what is the difference between the most ordinary big-headed soldiers who know words and those who don't. But Liu Mu still made these soldiers literate, and they couldn't read the Four Books and Five Classics, but they still had to learn the Three Character Classics and Thousand Character Texts.

Maybe in the future, some soldiers will be able to become captains.

When you become a lieutenant, how can you read military orders without even knowing words, or listen directly to verbal orders?

Is it useful for big-headed soldiers to be literate?

Li Shimin doesn't know either, but it doesn't seem to be a bad thing.

"Then, add a martial arts. The time is after the battle of Gaochang, and there is also the selection of older people from the Shen Ce Guard, but who have no chance to become military attachés again, and transfer fifty people to Beisha City, these people should have no problem with each of them with five groups, since they are literate and are a hundred battles heroes, I believe in them. ”

Before the Goguryeo people could protest, Li Shimin had already decided to swallow Beisha City.

It is said that Li Shimin is just deciding, and Liu Mu has already put this decision into action.

A small Goguryeo nobleman who had just experienced the shadow of death, so small that he couldn't be smaller, barely a small person of a nobleman. The appearance of malnutrition made Yanagi feel infinite sympathy in his heart when he saw him.

"Eat some!" Yanagi spoke in one of his few Silla languages.

The two high-ranking maids who had been transferred from Kindman's side placed a plate of very beautiful fruit in front of the little nobleman.

Yanagi now knows that the languages of the three countries of the peninsula are of the same origin, but they are not exactly the same language.

There are many differences in the languages of the three countries, and Yanagi cannot make out these differences. However, an official of the Ministry of Ceremonies, who is proficient in these three Chinese languages, told Liu Mu that he basically knows any Chinese language, and there will be no problem with simple communication between the other two countries.

The official documents are all in Chinese, so there is no need to consider the differences between the three languages.

The little nobleman's face turned pale, and when he looked at the plate of fruit, his face instantly turned ruddy, and then he shook his head violently. In the eyes of this little nobleman, there are fresh fruits in such a cold spring, and it is estimated that this plate can be exchanged for silver.

I can't afford to eat it myself.

"Well, how much money do you have?"

As soon as Liu Mu said this, the little nobleman threw himself directly on the ground, which was more powerful than kneeling, so he called the five-body throw to the ground.

The little nobleman spoke for a long time like a ghost, but Liu Mu didn't understand a word.

Liu Mu was about to tell him to say it again, when the Silla senior maid next to him approached Liu Mu and whispered, "He just said that he was willing to sacrifice all his family property and just want to change his life. ”

"You ask him if it's for him alone, or if it's for more than one person in his family."

After listening to Yanagiki's instructions, the senior maid of Silla immediately went to ask.

In fact, Liu Mu already had the answer, and he had arranged for someone to carefully observe the Goguryeo nobles who were locked up.

Sure enough, the answer is interesting.

"He wants his family to live."

Liu Mu smiled: "Okay, then if I want to lose one person, who will he choose." Minus two, who will he choose? ”

When the maid asked again, the maid herself doubted the answer.

"Master, he said that if he lost one person, he wanted one of his concubines to die. I can't figure out which one it is, only the name. If two people died, he was willing to die himself. ”

"Interesting." Yanagi sat up straight.

The little nobleman seemed to know that he was going to die, and was crying and talking to himself.

The high lady-in-waiting of Silla kept whispering in the ears of the willow wood what the little nobleman had said.

That means that his concubine is greedy for money and likes to fight, and the life left behind cannot be lived. His own old servant saved his life when he was young, and his own woman could weave cloth and not starve to death......

Liu Mu rubbed his forehead: "Go and set him up and bring him over." ”

The little nobleman really thought that he was going to die, and cried and begged Yanagi to make a new promise, stop killing the rest of his family, etc.

A warehouse, which was transferred from Jiangnan, was made of ordinary linen woven from Lingnan's abaca, which was still powered by a water-powered loom and not a real steam engine.

There are many waterways in the south of the Yangtze River, and hundreds of waterwheels can't feel the density.

Before the silk products of the Tang Dynasty were studied by craftsmen in Liumu, there were many different types of silk, Luo, silk, satin, brocade, silk, silk and so on.

And linen will also be coarse, fine, hemp, grass and so on......

Among them, hemp is considered to be a medium and high-grade linen.

The warehouse was filled with linen cloth from Jiangnan, and Yoomu motioned for someone to take one and put it in front of the little Goguryeo nobleman.

"Tell me, how much does this linen sell for going north to the city?"

The little nobleman was stunned, he didn't even want to kill him.

Holding the sackcloth and grabbing it in his hand for a while, he checked the weight and gave Liu Mu an answer: "Five stones of rice!" ”

Yanagi turned his back speechlessly.

The little nobleman sat on his knees and did not dare to speak, he did not know if he had said the wrong thing.

It happened that Jiang Ke came over at this time, and after asking about the situation, he came to Liu Mu's side: "Lang Jun, don't blame him for this." There were no coins in Goguryeo, and small goods were bartered, and large goods were exchanged for gold and silver. A large number of coins from my Datang flow into Goguryeo every year. ”

"Looks like I didn't figure it out."

"There are a lot of things that Lang Jun has to care about, and this little thing is nothing. Last year, the Goguryeo envoys also wanted to exchange gold, silver, and copper for about 300,000 yuan of new-style Tang coins, but I don't know if the household department changed its subordinates. Such small things are not enough to be cared for. ”

Jiang Ke really didn't know, and he didn't want to care about such a trivial matter.
