Chapter 2163: The Country Is in Turmoil and the People Are Suffering.
Dobugan Modi didn't know there were a lot of surveillance cameras in the house. He continued to talk and asked someone to rub his back again.
Those people were fascinated by the cake he painted, waiting to make a lot of money by exchanging things, and then go back to live in another place.
Then buy your own slaves, don't work all day, and enjoy yourself.
Li Longji looked at others rubbing their backs, stopped watching, and turned to another room.
The people from the Honglu Temple stayed, listened, and wrote down the key content.
"Have a cup of tea." Bi Gou looked at Li Yi.
"Okay!" Li Yi agreed, set up Gongfu tea, and gave everyone a cup.
Everyone went to Lao Bi when they couldn't sleep at night, and it had nothing to do with them.
"The local people didn't know how to resist, which was pitiful and sad." Bi Gou took a sip of tea and sighed.
"Those who were beaten were conquered by people from other places. Such as the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Jie, Qiang, and Di."
Li Yi gave an example. There were also places in our past that had a low status and couldn't beat others.
"It's different. At least there are still people who are resisting, and eventually they defeated other places, which led to the Northern and Southern Dynasties."
Song Jing disagreed. How can we be the same as them? They don't know how to resist.
Li Yi shared tea: "Indeed, the local small countries are worse than before the Northern and Southern Dynasties."
"There are so many, so many that we don't know the names of their countries. Maybe we just know them, and they change in the blink of an eye."
Su Yan had never heard of the country of Shibo. Looking at Li Yi's expression, he obviously didn't know.
There are so many that even Li Yi doesn't know, but he can guess how many there are and how chaotic they are.
Li Yi didn't add water for the time being, and picked up the prepared almonds to eat: "The more we fight, the poorer we are. The poorer we are, the more we fight. The people suffer.
A strong and unified country is a blessing for the people, such as the Tang Dynasty.
When the military strength is stable, economic construction is an important strategy to stabilize the country.
In particular, internal corruption must be eliminated. Strong cities have always been breached from the inside."
He taught everyone and kept emphasizing the problem of corruption.
"Therefore, those who love war will perish." Song Jing found a topic, and he wanted to weaken the power of the generals.
"Some wars can make money, such as the oil we need. The quality of the oil that is easy to dig in the Tang Dynasty is not good enough.
There are good ones outside, and they are also easy to dig. We can process them into products and sell them back.
One hundred ships of oil are shipped here, and one ship of oil products is not used, which is enough to exchange.
It is longer-term than selling glass and mirrors. The things made from oil can be used by the people of the Tang Dynasty."
Li Yi refuted Song Jing, who said that I spend money on war?
Besides, can Tubo not fight? They will fight you.
How rampant are the later Turks, always attacking us, and our soldiers are guarding, don't they have food?
Don't you know that they are working hard to develop in the northeast? Who in Bohai Kingdom is dying?
Anyway, I took the medicine for him, and he can eat it if he encounters the right symptoms.
Look at the big pine nuts you eat, where did they come from?
Song Jing was unhappy and lowered his head to pick the pine nuts with his fingernails.
Zhang Jiuling tried to smooth things over: "Kerosene and diesel refined from petroleum are convenient for lighting. When the quantity is large, every household in the Tang Dynasty can use it."
"When looking for a place to build an oil refinery, many ancillary products lack technology, and the improvement of materials is also a technical factor."
Li Yi followed the words and said that when there is more oil, the steam engine can be eliminated and replaced with an internal combustion engine.
Ordinary people cannot buy it to use, but renting is no problem.
Continue to build roads for easy traffic.
Everyone talked about future trade and development, and compared it with small countries in war. Their own Tang Dynasty is better.
……
The next day, the rain did not stop, and even got heavier.
The court meeting was held. Li Longji mainly wanted to feel the prosperity and strength of the Tang Dynasty, and the ministers picked the good ones.
Li Yi was in the hospital and did not go. Wouldn't it be uncomfortable to have a shed when it rains? It was damp and cold.
There were patients in the hospital who had undergone appendectomy surgery, and some of them had their stitches removed and could walk normally.
Li Yi did not dare to let him go. He had to recover completely before he could continue to work.
Now observe, and enlighten them, tell them that they have wages, and take half of the wages.
They also eat at the construction site, and inflammation occurs during the work, which is a work injury.
Li Yi can only comfort himself and others in this way. He has no choice. If he doesn't pay wages, the people will be worried to death.
He doesn't pay all because he is afraid that some people will use this to be lazy, make themselves sick, and take money while they are sick.
"Li Lang, Luo En came back last night."
Li Yi turned around, and Princess Yongmu came to him when he was resting.
"Luo En?" Li Yi looked like he was thinking.
"The one who repaired the road in Shi Xiazi Village." Princess Yongmu reminded.
"Oh, oh, oh!" Li Yi remembered, yes, there is such a person.
"He... has something?" Li Yi reacted again.
Luo En asked Princess Yuzhen to stay overnight, so that Princess Yongmu would not mention it to him.
"He said he thought of a good way to repair the road." Princess Yongmu really had something to say.
"He? Road repair method?" Li Yi raised his tone twice in a row.
There are craftsmen in charge of road repair. How many years have they been repairing roads from ancient times to the present? Can he think of a good way? Is the craftsman stupid?
"Will he steal the credit?" Li Yi considered that the craftsmen might have ideas during the construction process and report them.
Whoever deserves it should get it. UU Reading www.uukānshu.net The officials under the Ministry of Works will not steal it. As long as they say which craftsman it is, they will naturally get the reward.
The craftsmen can get promoted and get benefits based on their merits.
The people in the court are not stupid. If the officials steal the credit, the craftsmen will not give ideas in the future.
"It should be... not... right?" Princess Yongmu was not sure: "He said that when it rains, he can directly put cement and sand on the road, turn it over, and press it to form a road. It is fast. "
"No, it's not about taking credit." Li Yi confirmed, absolutely not.
"Can you tell?" Princess Yongmu was curious, why was she so sure?
"The craftsman is not short-sighted, how could he come up with such a bad idea? It's his own idea, that's right." Li Yi smiled.
"Huh? No?"
"There are proportions for cement road construction. How to mix rainwater? Add the soil on the road and mix it...
He can use his brain, which deserves encouragement, but don't think about cement, as there won't be enough elsewhere. "
Li Yi felt that he shouldn't hit people too hard because it was not easy for them.
Princess Yongmu blinked: "He also said that if the road is too long, especially when it faces a hillside, a bridge must be built even if there is no river.
If it is just a hole, a lot of traffic will compact the hole under the road.
If rainwater or water seepage from the mountains erodes the road surface, that area must be muddy.
Use bamboo to build a small bridge. If the bridge is broken, you can repair it. It is easier than repairing the road. The roadbed will not be soaked by water. "
Li Yi was stunned, and after a few breaths he said, "Culvert? Building a culvert with cement is difficult to take care of, so paving it with bamboo is really suitable."
He thought of the area from Luoyang to the Yellow River. There were many mountains and the road had to go around a long way.
Another type of culvert is paved with stones. When the flow of goods is heavy, it will collapse and be difficult to repair. Bamboo ones can be replaced quickly.
This is a good idea, but... who exactly thought it was?
