Chapter 2181 Drawing Makes Me Happy and More Happy

Li Longji looked at Bi Gou and frowned several times in succession.

"Longze, can you manage the Ministry of War?" Li Longji said to Bi Gou.

He was worried that Bi Gou was obsessed with money all day long, and the root cause was that he was asked to manage the Ministry of Revenue.

If you are so upset because of a little money, I will feel bad!

"No, don't have a Ministry of War. War is about logistics.

Then how many famous generals like Huo Qubing can fight without logistics?

The Tubo and the Later Turks are stable. Our Tang soldiers sacrificed their lives, and the logistics are endless.

The Tang Dynasty has strong support, the Bashui Corps, and the baggage is continuous, fearless of the horizon."

If Bi Gou refuses, I will manage the money. Can we fight without money?

Is the Later Turks incompetent to fight the Later Turks? No, it is the Later Turks who have no money.

Xiao Yi mobilized the resources of five roads to force the Later Turks to Xiaohai. Who dares not to obey?

At that time, there were Gyeonggi-do, Guannai-do, Hebei-do, Henan-do, and Dugi-do.

The Turks only made a mistake by attacking once, and Xiao Yi seized the opportunity.

Just like playing chess, one wrong move will lead to a complete loss.

How crazy was the mobilization of resources and troops in the five provinces at that moment?

They did not give people a chance to breathe, and brought people to a place as cold as winter with an overwhelming force.

"Eat skewers, eat skewers." Li Yi took a handful of skewers, and said, "Don't always think about other things, be happy, could you eat skewers every day before?"

Bi Gou chewed the meat excitedly, and his teeth continued to be stuffed, so he didn't care.

Li Yi asked someone to bring paper, pen, and ruler, and designed matches and matchboxes while eating.

The matchsticks were thicker and longer, and the match heads were bigger. The materials of the matchboxes were wood and bamboo, and patterns and words were carved on them.

Various patterns and words were printed on the uncarved matchboxes.

A group of ministers followed the advisors, and even drew a picture by themselves.

"Matches increase in value instantly, the prime ministers designed it." Li Yi said with a smile.

"Five cents a pack?" Bi Gou swallowed the meat and found that the meat he stuffed in was taken down with the meat he had just eaten.

"Five cents a box, with twenty in it." Li Yi did not agree with Bi Gou's price.

"Twenty-five cents a match? It's gone in a snap?"

Sima Chengzhen converted it into the value of a single match.

"More money is gone in a bang."

Li Yi did not think that a match at twenty-five cents a match was expensive, but it was a match?

"Retailing costs ten cents, double the price."

Li Chengqi thought of the previous matches, which cost one cent a pack and were shipped to Shu for five cents a retail.

"Exports are subject to a 1,000% tariff."

Li Yi proposed exporting, even if it was exported at wholesale prices, a box of matches would cost fifty-five cents.

The chiefs, small kings, and religious upper-class people outside were not soft-hearted when using them.

Bi Gou was stalking around, and he still wanted to eat meat, why was he so happy today?

Xiao Yi said something wrong, and he was compensated so much. It would probably not be easy to make Xiao Yi say something wrong in the future.

He found the skewers and took them in his hand: "How much do you add to ordinary matches?"

"Two thousand percent." Li Yi said casually.

"Why are ordinary ones more expensive than this?"

"Because I don't make money from ordinary ones, I give them to the people of the Tang Dynasty.

I make money from them, and the export price is not one cent per pack, at least five cents."

Li Yi made it clear that he would not do charity to the outside world. Who would build a match factory without profit?

"Longze just needs to collect taxes." Li Longji said, don't worry about how to make and set prices.

The ministers were painting with great interest. They wanted to compare and see if the matchbox pattern designed by Shui sold well.

Li Yi hid aside to eat, you guys have fun.

...

Two consecutive days passed, and the navy fleet first sent back good news. They had passed Dalao Mountain and were about to reach Langye Mountain.

Li Yi already knew where it was, but he still had to look at the map.

We passed Qingdao, Langye Mountain, not Langya Mountain, the two places are far apart.

This one is in Shandong, and the other one is in Anhui.

"They will rest in Haizhou at night, so we can't rush to ask them to come by train."

Li Yi explained on the big screen. Just after the small court meeting, the news came and everyone looked for Li Yi.

Li Yi's equipment is good, and the ministers are now used to it. When they say a place, Li Yi takes out the map and locates it directly.

"Laoshan belongs to Jimo County, with few people, and Langya Mountain belongs to Mizhou, with few people. However, the two places are rich in resources. If the train is connected to Haizhou, we should do more."

Li Yi began to introduce the products, geographical environment, climate of the places where the fleet passed...

Everyone listened with relish. They just like to listen to Li Yi talk about these things. It's all knowledge.

Especially when they heard about minerals, they were happy. There are good mines in that small broken place of our Tang Dynasty.

"Nearly 70,000 people, and there are also goods. The train runs from Haizhou to Luoyang for a short distance, and it takes three days to transport them."

Li Yi enlarged the map, pointed the small stick in his hand, and data appeared on the screen, and a three-dimensional virtual image was given by the way.

He could only do this at that time, and showed it to the officials of the Tang Dynasty more than 1,300 years in advance.

Li Dan held a cup of ginseng whisker and wolfberry water in his hand. He wanted to live a few more years, so he paid special attention to health preservation.

At this moment, he smiled and said: "The elderly, children, weak women, and pregnant women come first. Let Xiaoyi take the nurses to the hospital."

"What Mr. Mu said is exactly what I want. UU reads books wｗw.uukanshu．ｎet "Li Yi nodded, and that was the arrangement.

"The rest of the people, take care of your body with Haizhou, and don't overeat, mainly porridge." Song Jing revealed his identity as the prime minister.

"The others have eaten a lot of meat along the way. If they don't have meat, it will definitely not work. It's not as simple as porridge."

Li Yi didn't give face. The people who came from other places usually couldn't eat meat.

Suddenly they had meat to eat, and they all had appendicitis.

That place was different. There were many animals when traveling. In the southwest... the soldiers helped hunt, so they were used to eating.

When you suddenly told them to drink porridge in Haizhou, could their stomachs and intestines adapt?

Song Jing turned his head and looked away. I don't know who said that just now.

He didn't dare to discuss with Li Yi whether it was better to drink porridge or eat meat, just like the tribes in the north didn't drink porridge, but milk.

"If you want to eat meat, eat meat. Send the meat first."

Bi Gou had a new tax item, and he was more confident.

This money must be given by the court. Those who came from the northeast are returnees. It is not appropriate for your majesty to pay privately and for Li's manor to pay.

Bear it with the righteousness of the country, and those who return are Tang people!

Su Yan thought of a question: "Bohai is cold, Luoyang rarely freezes, why don't you provide heated kangs?"

He was kind-hearted. He came from a cold place, so you can't use heated kangs for them.

"Then I'll be exhausted, constantly treating typhoid fever."

Li Yi was tired. Do you think people from the Northeast will think it's warm when they arrive in Luoyang?

The temperature is four degrees above zero today. Most people from the Northeast will get sick in three days, at most three days, without heating and heated kangs at this temperature.

The cold on the Bohai side is dry cold. Luoyang has many rivers, and rarely freezes in winter. It's wet and cold.

Even in summer, when people from there come and stay for one night, many people will feel pain in their joints, especially their waists... It's so cool.
