Chapter 2805 Taking What the People Have in Common
, Bring the system to Datang
"Black bread is delicious!" At noon the next day, the little girl personally distributed large bread to the children.
The bread is made of part of the coarse flour of wheat grown in the northern region and a large amount of cornmeal. When kneading the dough, marine fish fat oil is added.
With the intervention of fat, the human body will increase the digestion and absorption rate.
Without the participation of fat, a lot of food eaten by people is not digested and is directly excreted.
If it is not absorbed, a lot of food eaten will be wasted, and you will still be hungry. Even if you eat a lot, it still cannot be converted into nutrients needed by the human body after drying.
The children who catch grasshoppers are selected from civilian families. Slaves are not used. Slaves have to eat when they work. If they are sick or disabled, the court will support them.
Civilians have their own assets, which is different from Datang. They can only get very little subsidies.
Some people have been malnourished for a long time and have not recovered yet, and cannot do heavy work.
Some people are disabled. When lifting stones, they were hit on their arms and legs. Basically, no one survived when they were hit on the waist and head.
Those who were hit did not die, but their work efficiency was reduced. The court arranged manual work for them, and they learned to adapt.
Their children took food home, and they had more time to practice handicrafts, usually weaving.
The children caught locusts that Li Yi and others didn't want to eat, so they basically gave them to the navy and Yulin flying cavalry to supplement protein.
The little girl ate a piece of black bread and thought it tasted good.
The children of the poor grew up early, and the children with difficulties knew that the locusts they caught could not be exchanged for so much food.
A large loaf of bread, eaten sparingly, was enough for the family for two days. Cut it into slices and take the bowl to the place outside where free soup was provided to get soup.
If you can use chopsticks, you can also pick up some pickles. If you can't use them, you won't get pickles, so everyone can.
The second prince had a short contact with Li Yi, and he had many doubts in his heart.
Just as Yao Chong, Bi Gou and others took turns to ask questions at Li's manor, it lasted for several years before they finally understood it themselves.
The important officials of the Tang Dynasty did not conflict with Li Yi in traditional moral concepts. There was Beitianfang, respecting the elderly and loving the young, and building official schools in local areas...
The ministers mainly asked about technology and solutions to possible problems in the future. Even so, they studied for five years.
The second prince's philosophy is different from that of the Tang Dynasty. He does not understand that the people are the most important, the country is second, and the king is the least important.
"You should use the income of others to give some to others. I am a worker, and I am not happy." The second prince said bluntly.
"When you were a prince, the workers gave you things. Were they happy? You led them to farm and worship, which was their contribution.
Now nothing else has changed. It's nothing more than you giving your things to others. What's the difference between using them yourself?
When the workers see the injured people starving to death, and you save them, they will want you to save them when they are injured."
Li Yi was more straightforward. He didn't want to tell the other party about Mencius and Xunzi. It was too tiring and the other party might not understand.
The second prince thought about it and realized that this was the truth. He still had some questions: "If other children come to catch locusts, will you give them something?"
"No, I only hire some of them, not to exchange goods.
In the future, the court will sell cheap black bread. In the short term, the sales price will be lower than the cost, but not much.
In the long term, it will be equal to or higher than the cost. In our Tang Dynasty..."
Li Yi introduced to the second prince while eating that the cost of black bread in the Tang Dynasty was three coins per piece, and the people were sold for one coin.
People who couldn't even afford one coin could eat black bread slices at the post station, enough for one meal, and then give them for the next meal.
Later, the cost of black bread was lower than one coin, and it was still cost-effective for the people to buy black bread, which was cheaper than eating other things.
At this time, if the people had nothing to eat at the post station, the post station would give them a complete black bread, and the people would leave their place of origin and press their fingerprints.
In this way, there would be no special situation, such as the Egyptian flatbread, which the people bought to feed the livestock at home, and it was cheaper than feed.
A situation was formed where the tail was too big to be cut off. The cake sellers were subsidized by the court, and they could sell a lot to the people who fed the livestock every day.
People who feed livestock use this as a source of feed, and people without money rely on this big cake subsidized by the court to survive, and they would rather spend their money elsewhere.
When the court could not afford the subsidy and wanted to raise the price, everyone opposed it, and their interests were violated.
Therefore, the post station did not sell black bread, but only gave it, limiting the quantity, and the court did not subsidize the sale of black bread.
Would you dare to push a big bucket to fill it up and take it home to feed the livestock for free soup? The cost of free soup is very low, and the people receive traditional education and will pick wild vegetables for the post station.
A simple black bread and free soup involve many disciplines such as social relations, economics, politics, behavioral psychology, and educational philosophy.
The second prince forgot to eat and kept listening and thinking.
The children had finished their meal and took a boiled salted goose egg and black bread back to the school.
When leaving, some children saw that the palace maids and eunuchs here would bend down to show respect, and they also learned to bow to thank them, and other children followed suit.
The act of bowing contains the content of behavioral psychology, social relations and educational philosophy.
Li Yi didn't eat it either, and patiently said that the cold noodles in front of the two people had been taken away and eaten by others.
Otherwise, it would be inedible, and it would be clumpy, that is, it would stick together after soaking.
The little robot 033 asked the palace maid to grill the skewers, bring beer, and put it on his head.
Li Yi took it to the table and signaled the second prince to eat it, which would not delay the chat.
The other ministers were not interested after hearing the content and went back to have lunch.
The old king and his friends wanted to listen, but they thought that Li Yi was teaching them powerful skills, so they didn't dare to listen and found a place to rest.
Li Yi occasionally smuggled in his private talk, instilling in the second prince the idea of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. The emperor was naturally his third brother and father-in-law, and the country was the Tang Dynasty.
The palace maids and eunuchs who had finished their meal took notes with pens beside them. If someone impeached Li Yi for colluding with foreign countries, this would be evidence to prove his innocence.
Even if there was no such possibility in theory, who would dare to impeach Li Yi now? Do you want to alienate the relationship between the emperor and his subjects, and between the father-in-law and the son-in-law? Overthrow the Tang Dynasty Li family's national system?
Who dares to put such a big hat on their head? The whole clan will be gone.
The little girl didn't leave, she listened beside her, and she lay on the hammock prepared for her while listening. Someone rocked her, and she slept soundly.
Li Yi glanced at the little girl and showed an envious look. How good it is to be carefree!
The second prince didn't pay attention to his daughter. He asked from time to time and listened carefully.
Occasionally he would resist and change the subject, talking about astronomy, which was his strongest specialty, but he was ruthlessly crushed.
He felt like there was a mountain beside him, towering and unshakable.
At 3:20 in the afternoon, when the little girl woke up with a smack of her lips and frowned to determine her location, Li Yi ended the conversation.
"Let's stop here today! I have learned a lot from the Protector General. I must think carefully and ask the Protector General for advice when he comes."
Li Yi wanted to take the little girl out to play. The little girl felt uncomfortable after her nap, with a sense of emptiness and loss. All children felt the same after waking up from a nap.
The best way at this time is to take him with small animals or ants. Children recover quickly, and after drinking some drinks, they will be lively again.
