Li Chunfeng recorded the results of his Youzhou branch this year, wrote them into letters, and gave them to Li Tai.
After all, the pasture plan is progressing in an orderly manner, and the fishing plan has become an important pillar of the Youzhou branch's finances.
As for the idea of growing plants in seawater, Youzhou Branch has at least found plants that can be grown. At most, it will take several years to domesticate and cultivate them.
But as long as it involves farming, patience is almost a necessary quality, and Li Chunfeng believes that Li Tai will definitely understand.
Li Chunfeng wrote a letter to Li Tai and then sent the letter to Gaoling through the post system.
It's just that this letter from Winter to Spring was not an urgent letter. It took almost a month to reach Li Tai.
At this time, Ma Zhou once again built a water channel, and Xue Dading, who was responsible for reclaiming land and developing water channels, quickly took over the follow-up work and immediately began to repair the water channels of the channel and divide the fields in detail.
Both Ma Zhou and Li Tai discovered that Xue Dading was a capable official. He might not be as efficient as Ma Zhou in scheduling and controlling officials, but he was quite meticulous in his work.
Relatively speaking, the connection of water canals is only the first step, and the rest includes planning for water distribution, field distribution, etc.
These things are not difficult, but they are quite tedious to implement, so you can only do them slowly step by step.
And this process involves division of fruit, which is related to vital interests and is not easy to deal with.
Of course, this is still the case in Zheng Guoqu. The land here is basically divided up by the aristocratic families, and there is almost no share for the common people. Even so, there are still many aristocratic families who are keeping an eye on it.
Because the first paragraph was for the imperial court, no one in the family said anything. If Li Tai wanted to nourish him, then nourish him.
But the remaining acres must be carefully considered. After all, these developed acres belong to aristocratic families, and after all, they have invested money.
Therefore, with the opening of the second water canal, various aristocratic families began to visit the Yue Prince's Mansion, Honglu Temple, and Shuidu Supervisor. Even Xue Dading, who was in charge of specific affairs, often had officials come to visit, just to secure the land for his family.
Especially with the arrival of spring, these people cannot bear it anymore as these lands are related to the beginning of spring plowing.
After all, Li Tai has the patience to let these lands nourish for a year, and planting some can consolidate the water and soil to nourish the land.
But other aristocratic families are not so patient. For them, if they plant too much raw land, it will become mature land.
If you plant less at the beginning, it will be better to plant less.
Even though agricultural schools have shown their importance, the crops grown in the first year of agricultural schools were not harvested well, and not everyone needs to be as perfect as Li Tai.
And Li Tai is now also considering whether he has fully invested the market value of these lands and how much valuable materials he has invested in the Zhengbai Canal.
All of your aristocratic families together do not have a quarter of your own, and then directly devour the fields opened by Zheng Baiqu, except for one-third of the land given to the court, according to the value of your investment.
The remaining scraps will be distributed to these aristocratic families!
Li Tai did not lie, because although these aristocratic families invested the first money, they misappropriated the first money to build factories surrounding the Zheng Guo Canal project.
During the construction of the entire Zhengbai Canal, the construction workers were mainly Gaoling corvee laborers, survivors of the Eastern Turks, and even some local people who moved bricks for a few meals and food stamps. The labor cost was almost reduced to a minimum by Li Tai.
As for the materials, they are produced by Li Tai's large and small factories, and even many projects that require heating and processing. Relying on the unified coal industry, this part of the cost has been compressed to the extreme.
This means that if Li Tai takes out his account books and uses market prices to calculate Li Tai's investment in the renovation of the entire Zheng Bai Canal, he will find that Li Tai's investment in Zheng Bai Canal crushes the combined shares of all aristocratic families.
Of course, Li Tai knew very well that this thing could not be handed over directly. If he handed it over, he would be in danger.
Not to mention creating this kind of thing by myself, I'm afraid that in the future, aristocratic families of all sizes won't play with me anymore.
He hasn't laid a solid foundation yet, and when the aristocratic family is afraid of his own operation, he is afraid that he will soon face the backlash from the aristocratic family.
After all, it was obvious that he had contributed some strength, but for some reason his share had become smaller.
It was as if there was an inexplicable force harvesting the wealth that originally belonged to him.
The family doesn't actually need to know the logic here, but as long as they understand that Li Tai has this kind of operational ability, even if Li Tai is the prince, they will probably find ways to kill Li Tai, and even they will instinctively gather together and surround Li Chengqian and Li Tai
fight.
With the combined power of all the aristocratic families, Li Tai didn't know if Li Shimin could protect him. After all, it was easy to dodge an open shot and hard to defend against a hidden arrow.
What's more important is that from now on, the aristocratic family has resisted their involvement in internal affairs, and has even been smarter and directly encircled and suppressed the agricultural school. Then I am afraid that most of my efforts will be wasted, and I am afraid that I will have to face the counterattack of the entire feudal force.
To be honest, Li Tai didn't want to die, and he didn't have the consciousness to die as a martyr, so he could only use time to prepare his plan.
Again, the power Li Tai can rely on is still growing slowly, and it is not even a sprout now.
Under normal circumstances, it takes at least ten to twenty years to grow.
The most important sign is to allow these grassroots personnel to complete the leap from outflow officials to ninth-grade sesame officials. This is to grasp the power of the grassroots.
By that time, the imperial court will have its own organization, and the grassroots level will have its own organization. The middle-level aristocratic families are nothing, and revolution will be their fate.
It's like, in the reform after reform in modern society, those who can complain are basically the middle class.
Because there are fewer people at the top, it is easier to unite and reach consensus.
The people at the bottom are poor, but they are the foundation of the entire society. If they move even slightly, the earth will shake.
That’s just the middle-level people, no matter what kind of reforms are basically aimed at them.
They claim to be elites but cannot influence policies. They have resources but cannot unite themselves. Therefore, they are like sponges. They squeeze out some water.
Therefore, if Li Tai can wait patiently, he also needs to leave the capital to accumulate strength.
As long as the top layer and the bottom layer complete the coordination, what does the aristocratic family look like? When the time comes, they can just crush it.
"Tsk, tsk, after calculating so much land, let's take one-third. Unfortunately, I still have to make false accounts.
Your sister, these days I’ve only heard of people making false accounts to misappropriate the court’s assets, I’m afraid I’m the only one who makes false accounts to hurt myself and enrich my father!”
Li Tai muttered, but he could only do his best to make fake accounts and reduce his investment proportion as much as possible.
After all, the prince himself is more or less on the same level as aristocratic families of all sizes.
Since it is on the same level, there must be rules when doing things, so there must be a basis for how much land each person gets.
Even as Li Tai was writing and writing false accounts, the threshold of the Yue Palace was being stepped on in an endless stream.
After all, it was Li Tai who proposed the original plan to build the Zheng Bai Canal. That part of the country was given priority to the court, and everyone more or less tolerated it.
But now at least in their opinion, as the country's share has been taken away, the fertile land now connected to the water must have a share of the aristocratic family, and the earlier they get it, the earlier they can start farming!
However, with Lu Anshou blocking the door and driving people away, aristocratic families of all sizes did not dare to come and disturb them, so they just sent gifts one after another and were content to look forward to meeting Li Tai.
And when Li Tai had a headache from being harassed by children from big and small aristocratic families, he had to hide in his own home to make false accounts, and even had to make the false accounts so seamless that at least people of this era would not be able to spot the clues.
Li Chengqian, who was in the East Palace, listened every day to the reports from the people sent to keep an eye on Prince Yue's Mansion that the gate of Prince Yue's Mansion was crowded with people. He was so envious that he couldn't help but bite his teeth.
With the crowning ceremony last year, even the thirteen-year-old Li Chengqian has become somewhat wary of Li Tai.
This is because the princes of the Son of Heaven often perform rituals early in order to take charge of the country's affairs as soon as possible. It is said that King Wen of Zhou was crowned at the age of twelve, and King Cheng was crowned at the age of fifteen. Therefore, Li Chengqian, the crown prince, can be crowned at the age of twelve. As for Yuanfu, he can wait until
It will be held again at the age of fifteen.
In any case, as Li Chengqian held the crowning ceremony, Li Shimin became more relaxed towards Li Chengqian.
It's just that Li Chengqian no longer has Li Gang, who was like his teacher and father, to help him.
Even if Queen Changsun is still there, it is enough to guide Li Chengqian from going astray, but as his freedom expands, he will eventually instinctively test the limits of his freedom.
Under such circumstances, Li Chengqian began to learn martial arts these days, and naturally fell in love with the speedy feeling of riding a horse.
Especially when he saw that Li Tai's Prince Yue Mansion was bustling with traffic, but he was always at a loss in the East Palace, it made him even more depressed.
"Someone, bring my Taxuewu over here!" Li Chengqian finally decided that he would go out and relax.
Just when Li Chengqian was obsessed with horse riding, Li Tai spent seven days and finally revised an account book that even if he wanted to look for it, it would be difficult to find flaws in it.
After completing this project, which was quite arduous for Li Tai, Li Tai finally rubbed his dark eyes and lay on the bed for a good sleep.
I thought that I would wait until tomorrow and hand this information to the court first, so that the court could allocate the funds according to the above funds.
The most important thing is how the court adjusts it. It is the court's business. You can go out naturally.
This is to prevent you from walking on the road and suddenly encountering an old man whom you may not even know, and then come over to start a relationship.
However, not long after Li Tai lay down, Bai He broke into Li Tai's room and said loudly,
"The king of Yue is in trouble. The prince fell while riding a horse, and the horse's hoof stepped on his foot!"
"Huh?" Li Tai couldn't help but was stunned. He originally thought that he would be very happy when he heard the news, but in fact he may not be very happy. Instead, he said to Bai He,
"Give me some clothes to change. I'm going to Chang'an and I'll call Old God Sun!"
After all, he is his biological brother from the same father and mother. Even if he is a bit stupid, he will still care instinctively even if he is injured!
Li Tai took a deep breath. He really didn't expect that the first thing in early spring would be to face Li Chengqian.
Lu Anshou immediately sent Li Tai to Chang'an, and of course Sun Simiao was captured by Li Tai.
No matter what, let Sun Simiao go and see how Li Chengqian's situation is, although historically Li Chengqian also suffered from lifelong illnesses because of something that happened, and it was even regarded by many as the cause of his psychological distortion.
But Li Tai doesn't care.
After all, it is because Li Tai understands what kind of power the entire system he has cultivated will have when it matures.
At that time, he may need to face Li Shimin directly. In contrast, Li Chengqian is just adding to the confrontation.
In history, all he had to face was the King of Wei who was loved by Li Shimin.
But if he is facing his future self, Li Tai will definitely be able to face Li Shimin politically. The pressures on the two are completely different.
It's almost the same feeling as when Li Jiancheng faced Li Shimin when the People's Republic of China was just founded. He couldn't resist the conspiracy and could only use conspiracy to reduce his wings.
But as long as Li Shimin plays the front, Li Jiancheng can only be killed suddenly.
Therefore, there is no need for Li Tai to deliberately fail to treat Li Chengqian's foot disease. If his ability to withstand stress is not strong enough, he will die suddenly sooner or later.
Li Tai arrived in Chang'an in a hurry, but he didn't even have time to return to his mansion, so he immediately entered the palace.
After informing him, he directly took Sun Simiao to the East Palace.
When he arrived at the East Palace, Li Taiming saw howling in the East Palace. A large group of servants were being beaten with imperial sticks. Some of them were even knocked unconscious and thrown aside, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.
Li Tai didn't pay attention to this, because if something happened to the prince, they, the servants, could not escape their responsibility.
And obviously, this incident has touched Li Shimin's inner feelings. For him, his children are really important. If it weren't for the poor care of these servants, how could anything happen to the prince?
At this time, Empress Changsun did not stand up and say anything to persuade her. It was obvious that she was also very angry.
Li Tai's notification was soon passed, and he came inside to see Li Shimin, Queen Changsun and Chang Le.
"What happened to my brother? I heard the news and came from Gaoling. I also brought the old immortal Sun with me!" Li Tai said while looking at a group of people.
Of course, Li Tai did not say that Sun Simiao must be allowed to treat Li Chengqian.
After all, treating the prince is no small matter. If you want Sun Simiao to treat him, you must get Li Shimin's consent.
"Thank you, Taoist Master Sun!" When Li Shimin saw Sun Simiao, he wanted to try it first no matter what, so he asked Sun Simiao to try it.
After all, the last time Du Ruhui's illness came on suddenly, the imperial doctors were helpless, and it wasn't Sun Simiao who took care of it.
As Sun Simiao went in to check, Li Tai fell silent and felt that the room was particularly quiet.
Queen Changsun and Changle were wiping tears secretly at this time. It was obvious that Li Chengqian was seriously injured this time!
