Chapter 2359 External Strategy and Internal Health
Everyone selectively blocked Li Yi's mumblings, they thought the little robot was right.
Bring the steam engine over, even if others get it, they can't imitate it.
If there is a drought in Japan, it is a good time to win people's hearts!
"Yes!" Li Longji agreed, no matter who came up with this idea.
He never regarded the little robot as a puppet. In Li Yi's era, others would treat it as a human being.
"In this case, we should send more steam engine drilling equipment to protect one side. The larger the scope, the more support we will get."
Song Jing considered the problem differently at this time. He didn't say anything about the demeanor of a big country and that it would be better to give it to others for free.
He is now smarter and more pragmatic. He was actually very hypocritical before.
Li Longji commented on him later, saying that this person has been pretending, and later found out that it was wrong, so he quickly took it down.
In history, Li Longji's evaluation of Song Jing was: He sells honesty to gain fame.
Equivalent to Wei Zheng.
It doesn't matter what others say about him. The emperor's impression is the most important, but he has to use it.
Because at that time, Bi Gou died, Lu Huaishen died, Wei Zhigu died, Yao Chong was deposed, and Yuan Qianyao was punished along with Yao Chong. It was a mess.
Li Longji could balance in this situation. In theory, he died late. It would have been better if he died earlier.
It’s not like that now! Li Longji is still smart. Bi Gou is alive, and Wei Zhigu is in charge of things in Chang'an.
Song Jing, the prime minister, is only a quarter of the prime minister. Bi Gou, Zhang Jiuling, and Su Yan accompany him.
The key is that there is also a group. In addition to the prime minister, the people in the group have served as many ministers.
"Make more rice noodles, add seasonings, and send them to Japan. The ship does not need to be too big. As long as the weather is good, you can get a lot of things in return."
Su Yan also has political wisdom. He has learned about economics a long time ago. If he still can't understand it, he should join the group.
The key is that the people in the group have also learned it, which is more embarrassing. If you don't know how to join the group, what position are you in?
Bi Gou picked up a piece of freshly cooked meat and said, "Use the goods of Japan as collateral to exchange overseas without any flaws. The price of goods depends on the narrowness of the currency of the Tang Dynasty and the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty's army."
Bi Gou had a thorough idea. He used the mineral resources of Japan as collateral to issue currency.
In this way, people in other places overseas would not think there was a problem, at least they could exchange.
Then the price of a thing depends on the amount of currency given by the Tang Dynasty to the other party. It is not given to you just because you want it.
How to maintain this interest relationship? Military.
Li Yi was stunned. Great, Lao Bi, you have studied it very thoroughly!
"If there is a drought in Japan, we can exchange food for mineral development. In fact, it is just changing a place. They are not like us. Mining must be approved by the court."
Su Yan followed up with an idea. Give a place some food, and then we will buy the place with mines.
Then hire local people to mine and give them some benefits.
For example, give them enough food and let the workers take some food home.
"Gangrou, say something." Zhang Jiuling thought again and again, and felt that none of them seemed right.
These actions are too obvious. When the time comes, the local people will definitely resist.
Li Yi is cooking vegetables, chrysanthemums from the greenhouse.
He stopped cooking and started cooking.
Putting down the chopsticks, Li Yi said: "What you are thinking now is that the Tang Dynasty has something to send to Japan in exchange for good things.
After exchanging back and forth, the Japanese people will find that they are at a disadvantage, and they will have to improve their treatment.
There are many ways to deal with it. We are also exchanging things overseas.
If they don't want to exchange, they want to rob, and finally they will definitely fight. When it is inconvenient for our own people to fight, we have to spend money.
They have people! We give them benefits, and then they fight. This is the case everywhere. Why do we have to put the trouble on ourselves?"
Li Yi has a way. Let's consider the problem from another angle.
"Like the border tribes of the Tang Dynasty now?" Su Yan compared the current situation of the Tang Dynasty.
The Tang Dynasty has its own army, and the others are those who have surrendered. Part of the Tuqishi is led by Sulu, and the other part is from the Tang Dynasty.
According to Li Yi's idea, should we also spend money to support people from other places like we did with Sulu before?
When they rebel like Sulu, we will train them well and then turn around to fight. Is it hard?
"It's slightly different. After the Tang generals fight, the place belongs to the tribe where the generals are from. We hire others to fight, and the place is ours after the fight."
Li Yi shook his head slightly. He also knew that letting others fight might be difficult to get rid of, but if he didn't give them the territory, the other party would lose their foundation.
"Act according to circumstances." Li Longji concluded, which was actually the same as not saying anything.
After Lan Bao finished his meal, he ran to see his son, who was five months old.
As a premature baby, Lan Bao's sister-in-law Huang's physical condition was not very good, but fortunately the child survived and was very healthy.
Huang was bullied because she had no children before, and her fate was unfortunate.
Li Yi also brought Princess Yongmu and Xiaolan to see. The baby was white and chubby. When he was picked up by his father, he opened his eyes wide and looked curiously, not knowing him.
Huang looked very happy. She had a child, proving that she was not a woman abandoned by God.
Li Yiyou checked the baby and saw that the baby was not crying or making a fuss. He turned around and left, giving the other family some space to talk.
"Li Lang, it's not easy to be a woman." Princess Yongmu sighed from Huang's experience.
"It's a matter of concept. The newspapers repeatedly emphasize that whether to have a boy or a girl depends on men, not women. The purpose is to remove this pressure from women.
In addition, regarding childbirth, many cases in the Tang Dynasty are due to the poor hygiene of young girls.
The same is true for men, so circumcision is required.
In the future, a special area will be set aside in the newspaper to write about physiological hygiene knowledge, and the font and color will be adjusted."
Li Yi found that many women in the Tang Dynasty could not have children, and they went to temples, monasteries, and temples to pray for children.
Sometimes it was the man's fault. While praying for a child, they had sex with the people there and then had a child.
Sometimes it was the woman's own factors. People's lives were difficult, so they had no time to consider hygiene conditions.
For example, drinking raw water, the water from the well was okay, but drinking water from the river was easy to cause problems, especially when some people's toilets were by the river.
When the menstrual period came when the girl was young, if she was not well taken care of, she would get sick, and she didn't know it herself. Some felt uncomfortable and were ashamed to ask a doctor.
After a long time, when she needed to have a child, she didn't get pregnant.
Fortunately, as soon as the newspapers promoted composting, the things in everyone's toilets became good things and were no longer discharged into the river.
In addition, telling people to drink boiled water solved many diseases caused by drinking water.
"Oil crops still need a lot of oil crops." Li Yi thought about this and knew where there were still shortcomings.
