The news of Xiaobei's arrival quickly reached Li Longji's ears.
Zhang Xiaobao just put the letter aside, Li Longji came in and snatched the letter, seeing the end from the beginning.
"I asked her about the tax exemption, she didn't say? The trader actually gave others three grams of gold less. This merchant has bad morals."
Li Longji was very disappointed. He thought that Xiaobei's reply was specifically about the matter he asked, but it turned out that Xiaobei came to ask for advice, shook his head and commented.
"How is it possible to take three grams of gold from someone else? It was the person who asked for the bracelet to'eat' the gold layer of the bracelet with a chemical potion. He was considered a talent, but he didn't use it to the right place and cheated three grams of gold. What's the use? If I were he, I would ask for a job in the Ministry of Engineering."
Zhang Xiaobao would never determine that there was a problem with the jewelry making business, because now it is Datang, and the businessmen cannot cover the sky with one hand if they have money, and their status is very low.
Wang Juan thought the same way. If the merchants of Datang really had a status and would not be so obedient, they would provide the money for the Chaoyang Operation, and they would have to pay for the money to build the road.
They just want to get a recognition, and use money to pay in exchange for inner enjoyment, which can be regarded as a kind of business.
Thinking about this, Wang Juan nodded in agreement: "That is, I am very disgusted with other people's cheating, especially playing cleverness. As our Datang's economic development gets better and better in the future, all kinds of contradictions and problems can also arise. Grab it from the root."
Li Longji listened, think about it, think it is indeed the case, the merchant who makes jewelry steals three grams of gold, and will not do business in the future? If they were sent to the government, the people inside would not treat him well.
"According to this, it was that person who had a problem, so he was arrested and punished severely." Li Longji was about to give an order.
Zhang Xiaobao hurriedly stopped: "Don't, it will not be severely punished. The arrest must be arrested. On the surface, other people should know that he committed a serious crime. However, after he was arrested, he was sent to the Ministry of Engineering and put in jail. It's a pity for this person."
"Xiaobao, I disagree. You want the talent to be clear. However, if every talented person makes a mistake, the final result will not be severe punishment. There will be more people making mistakes. What is this called? Oh, Yes, the cost of crime is too low."
Li Longji raised an objection.
"I also know, but what can you do if you catch him and throw him in jail? He doesn't use his craftsmanship. It's better to let him continue to do things, but restrict his personal freedom."
Zhang Xiaobao thought of the way he was in prison. At that time, he and Juanjuan were paid to work in the prison. You can be paid as much as you do, and then you can buy daily necessities in the prison.
The price is very expensive. If you have more money, you can let it in. You can live a comfortable life in jail without work.
But if you don't give you freedom, you are prone to fights and accidental injuries.
The purpose is to give you a way to use what you have learned, otherwise it will be no good for society to stay in jail forever.
Zhang Xiaobao selectively talked about this matter to Li Longji. After Li Longji heard it, he nodded and said: "It's also ha, put a carpenter in, and let him do the work of lifting things, which has no positive effect on my Datang as a whole. .
I am also worried that if they are as comfortable inside as they are outside, will they continue to commit crimes after they come out? I’ve been comfortable when I’ve been caught. If I’m not caught, isn’t it a profit? "
"Yes, there will be some people who get a lighter sentence the first time they get caught, and aggravate the second time they get caught, and then vigorously promote ethical matters instead of always promoting the economy.
It makes people feel that it is a shame to be inside, not that I have been in, and I will be great when I come out. Don't give the criminals this kind of soil. "
Zhang Xiaobao explained again.
Wang Juan gave Zhang Xiaobao a blank look next to him. Does that mean you still have the face to say? As long as you always go in, you can always buy a new identity certificate, the official one.
Zhang Xiaobao glanced back, meaning, what does it have to do with me? The responsibility of everyone, I am just a user.
Li Longji looked at Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's eyebrows, coughed, and said, "Why don't you find a place to try? It's in Sanshui County of your home?"
"My cell in Sanshui County is empty. Does anyone dare to make trouble in Sanshui County?" Zhang Xiaobao asked.
"Yes, Sanshui County doesn't work, it's too special there." Li Longji remembered that Sanshui County is the best county in the entire Datang, and there is no one, even Luzhou.
The people in Sanshui County are very hardworking. Of course, they have high incomes and good welfare. The neighbors have the same pride as Sanshui County residents, and their relationships are also very good.
People who buy and sell at the market will not have bargaining and quarreling, because the goods sold are not good, and the sellers don’t need to pick them, but the sellers will deal with them.
All the people in a county jointly maintain the temperament and status that belong to Sanshui County.
"There is the real paradise. When will our Datang be like Sanshui County?" Li Longji murmured after thinking about it.
Zhang Xiaobao sighed: "Hey... impossible. The smaller the place, the better the governance. Datong, that is a dream. Sanshui actually has competition. It is just to show it to the bright side. They dare not spoil me, because they are afraid of me and the cuckoo. cuckoo."
"But I can make the people of Datang do better than they are now." Wang Juan said: "As long as I have maintained an absolute dominant position in Datang, the people will maintain this superiority by themselves.
For example, a citizen of my Datang arrived in Japan and was slapped there. My Datang fleet directly squeezed it over and asked Japan to give us an explanation and handling advice that satisfies us.
So this common people, he will definitely be willing to safeguard the interests of Datang, so he will follow the teachings of Datang officials and do things well, because he knows where his dignity outside comes from. "
"Yes, Juanjuan is right." Chi De Zuzan appeared at the door and said frankly: "I used to be slave slaves and their status was not too high. Sometimes I couldn't take care of them and would be pushed out by others. Even if I knew it, I couldn't get rid of all those who bullied the slaves. I also have my difficulties.
Later... Later, you fought over. In the palace, I didn't need to protect the slave slaves, and no one dared to do anything to her. Now her status is higher, just because you are afraid of bullying her, you bring your soldiers over. "
Chi De Zuzan had been listening outside for a while, and the more he listened, the more emotional he became. Hearing what the monarchs and officials said, he was working hard to find a way for Datang.
Princess Jincheng glanced at Chi Dezuzan very tenderly, and cuddled her body. Her own man could say such things, indicating that she would no longer think about recreating a Tubo imperial family.
There will be no war in the future, and the people's life will be better, and their lives will be just as good.
At the same time, she also knew why Xiaobao and Juanjuan had such a high status in Datang, not just because one of them can fight and the other can handle economic matters.
In addition, they can chat with the emperor brother at any time to come up with ideas that are good for Datang. The original Tubo did not have such a person.
Li Longji saw that a lot of people came in again, and stopped talking about this kind of thing: "Then go to Wannian County and try it, and then promote it, Xiaobao and Juanjuan, you two will continue to command the battle, and I will tell them Talk about the future development of Tubo."
Having said that, Li Longji brought other people out again to talk to Chide Zuzan about Tubo, mainly to talk about the problems of medicinal planting. Tubo also has special medicinal materials under the special geographical environment and climate.
"Chi Dezu praise, come, sit down and talk, Tubo, you take care of it, now there is still a lack of things, I will send them here, no problem, they are all citizens of Datang, the conditions are relatively poor there. One point, life is also not as good as here.
However, you can't always think about letting this side deliver materials for nothing, but also produce, such as all kinds of medicinal materials in your place, encourage your people to plant them, and raise more cattle and sheep, and then sell them back. What else is needed Things, you buy with money, are better than directly managing people, right? "
After Li Longji motioned to Chi De Zuzan to sit down, he said nothing.
Chi De Zuzan really didn’t think about this issue. He just thought about how to raise chickens. Zhang Xiaobao’s first strategy was to raise chickens, but now that there is no war, when chickens are raised again, they will not be a disaster. It's a good thing. Highland barley is not as delicious as rice, and it's not as good as white noodles.
Therefore, we are vigorously developing poultry farming, and now listening to Li Longji, it seems that we should adjust our thinking, which is a bit embarrassing.
"Your Majesty, now I am raising chickens there. If it is changed, how should people with chickens do it?" Chi Dezuzan asked.
Before replacing it, Li Longji really couldn't think of a good way, but now he has been studying for a long time, so he told Chi De Zuzan before thinking about it.
"Let them continue to raise the chickens that are already raised, but don't raise the chickens that lay eggs. Keep it under control. If you let Tubo raise chickens, it really develops, and the chicken raisers will lose it.
Isn’t it cold on your side? You use snow and ice to make a few more ice cellars, and then your own government will collect a portion of it at a price lower than the current price of chicken. Don’t let the chicken farmers lose money.
Specify which part to raise and which part is not allowed to raise. If the chicken is lacking, you can take out the frozen meat to stabilize the price and make a little profit. "
Chi De Zuzan's eyes gleamed when he heard Li Longji, he was very surprised: "Your Majesty, you, you are usually too tired, you even want to think about such trivial things?"
"What are you tired of? I am idle all day, do you think about this kind of thing? How simple, I think the most tiring thing is to guess the idea of Xiaobao, the cuckoo and their younger siblings, that's difficult, I So far, I haven’t guessed why the tax is exempted. After taking out half of the profits, Beckham can still make a lot of money."
Li Longji said braggingly.
Chi De Zuzan nodded repeatedly, he felt that he was really stupid, and he shouldn't ask such questions at all.
…
When others think it's idle, some people don't dare to relax at all.
As night fell, Yang Qiang, as the commander of the first forward brigade, looked at the five-three-five highland model on the sand table. His opponent said, "We have to fight, if we don't eat this highland, we will be considered a failure. , Isn't it?"
"I want to fight, but there are only 600 people left in my group. We still don't know how many people are on the other side's mountain. My 600 people have been unable to attack for a long time. The judges judged that morale was low."
Kong Lu was worried that he would let his regiment rush upwards, reminding him of the difficulties he was facing right now.
"Then let the second regiment go." Yang Qiang looked at the commander of the second regiment, who was named Li Gong.
Li Gong nodded firmly: "Guaranteed to complete the mission, even if my regiment is the last person in the battle, I will personally rush up, and I will win the five-three-five high ground."
"Okay, pass my order, the artillery battalion will attack, and the second regiment will follow up later." Yang Qiang has no other way but to cooperate with this tactic.
Shi Chun didn't rest at all. He knew that the enemy would take advantage of the night to storm. One of his battalions did not plan to go back alive. If he could consume all the opponent's shells, then the rest of his regiment would be easy to fight.
When the messenger reported that the enemy's artillery fire was covered, Shi Chun stood in front of the sand table and did not give any orders, just watching that, all the orders that should be given were finished.
The only thing that can be done is to wait and wait for the referee to give its due judgment.
Li Gong returned to his room: "The second regiment attacked and pressed on the entire line. You don't need to wait for the enemy to appear. While advancing, shooting at the same time, I will take it down."
"Report... Our army's offensive troops were blocked and encountered a fierce platoon of guns from the enemy. The referee team determined that the death toll was more than 60."
After Li Gong gave the order, it didn't take long before the messenger ran in to report.
"Huh?" Li Gong was stunned for a moment: "Our army was attacked by platoon guns? Guns? They are indigenous, I know the commander is not, but the rule is, why do they have guns?"
"Master Li, I can't tell you this. You can continue to command, or you can hand over the command, and then go to the central sand table to see." The messenger repeated what he always said.
"Don't look, attack, give me a strong attack, I will naturally know what's going on after I get down." Li Gong said angrily.
As a result, he didn't have to fight down, he knew what was going on. The opponent's first battle line had already retreated when they were about to attack, and they took up the trench.
So the news came back.
"The newspaper, our army has occupied the opponent’s first line of defense and found that they had fixed the tube in front of the gun. They were learning how we fired and loaded the bullets. They made one shot without any aiming, but because Our army was on the whole line and there were too many people, so there were a lot of losses. The referee decided that our regiment had reduced its staff by 170 people."
After Li Gong heard it, he nodded: "Understood, their gun is our first group of guns. It is easy to learn how to shoot, but the hard part is aiming, so they fixed it and didn't aim.
In other words, when we attacked, we avoided that line and would not be hit. It was my brother's command that I pressed across the line. "
"Yes." The messenger replied.
"Good ability, even this kind of loophole can be exploited. If he is not leading the indigenous people, but their family's seedling guard team, did he eat all my regiments now?"
After Li Gong finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something: "Our artillery is useless? There have been three rounds of fire from the beginning to now. Why do they still have fortifications?"
The messenger ran out, and ran back in a hurry.
"The report is useful. Every time our artillery fires can cause a lot of damage to the opponent's fortifications, but they have not stopped building. We knocked out the upper ones, and they still have a place to hide below."
"Why? They don't fight, they can't dig pits? Order, continue to attack, tell me regiment soldiers, avoid the enemy's straight line of attack, whether I jump forward or crawl forward."
Knowing that he couldn't ask, Li Gong gave another order. Now that he understands how the other party hits, hide. If you do, you won't be afraid of being hit.
"Reported, the forward of our regiment attacked and found that the opponent's target had been shot several times without falling down. He was timid and did not dare to move forward." Chuan Lingbing was useless for a while and reported to Li Gong again.
"I've taken it all and everything can happen, right? Order the offensive personnel of our regiment to continue to advance, if they stop, they will be shot on the spot."
Li Gong didn't ask why this time, and asked for nothing.
"Reported, when our army hit the opponent's third line of defense, the opponent counterattacked our army. Our army shot. Five times and the opponent fell one person. They were already entangled in a hand-to-hand battle."
The messenger reports.
Before Li Gong had any reaction, another messenger ran in: "Report, the enemy used himself and the corpses of our previously dead people to stand in front of him and countercharge. Our army suffered heavy losses."
"I know, I know, okay, when the time comes, I must see who the other party's commander is.
To send a message to the brigade, I asked the artillery battalion to continue the attack, regardless of the casualties of our army. All the soldiers of our army were fighting on the spot and were not allowed to retreat. "
The artillery battalion's cannon rang again, and the battle continued.
It’s been a day and a half on the sand table until the sky is bright. The first brigade of the Datang Army forwards won the 535 high ground. In fact, it’s not so high anymore. One foot in height.
Commander Yang Qiang looked at the results of the battle, but he didn't look happy at all. A total of more than 1,700 people died. After taking the high ground, he found that the opponent was only a battalion, a logistics battalion, and his artillery battalion had been shot out.
"This general has requested it." Yang Qiang said as he looked at Shi Chun who had been "carried" over.
Shi Chun was not dead, not dead now. In theory, at the last moment, he killed the other three people. The other party came to capture him alive, so he didn't kill him.
Hearing the other party’s words with strong emotions, Shi Chun smiled slightly: "If you have something to say, I took poison when the camp broke out. It won’t take long to live. Your army doctor’s equipment is not working. Please take advantage of this. Useful things, I will answer you selectively."
"How long have you been studying? Is it the inner courtyard of Wang Zhang's family?" Yang Qiang asked.
"I've been praised, and the inner court can't be responsible for the logistics camp. The main force is 100,000. The command there is the inner court. I am the person who applied to join the inner court. It is estimated that this martial arts exercise is over. You can go in, thank you."
Shi Chun still said with a smile.
