Soon, the news that the court promoted Li Tai to the Minister of Works was officially released.
At this time, Zhang Liang, who came to the Prince's Mansion to be the Prince's Secretary, then he realized it and patted his head and sighed:
"This fortune teller said that I have been so refreshing recently that I have reached the peak of the world. It turns out that this is the case. It seems that it is because of the King of Wei!"
As long as Zhang Liang does not involve his wife or fortune-telling metaphysics, he is still a normal person.
But as long as these two things are involved, Zhang Liang will become abnormal.
Now, from the third-rank official position to the second-rank official, no matter what the actual position is required, anyway, when he was in the Ministry of Works, he always sat with clay sculptures and wood carvings. In addition to promoting the promotion, he never cared about the specific project.
It is easier to become a secretary of the Crown Prince's Mansion now. At least theoretically, he can manage the Crown Prince's Mansion except the Crown Prince and the Crown Prince's Consort.
Compared with Zhang Liang's relaxed freehand painting, Li Tai's first order after coming to the Ministry of Works was to maintain the normal operation of the Ministry of Works.
What kind of project should have been done at the beginning? What kind of project should be done? When you come to the Ministry of Industry, you will do three things: Don’t interfere, don’t interfere, or don’t interfere!
As for the Wanxiang Temple promised to Li Shimin, the staff was not complete, the land was not expropriated, and the drawings were not drawn...
"Build roads!" Li Tai said calmly, "Whoever has time will arrange for him to build the surrounding roads.
"By the way, please ask Aye to urge Du Xiang. Logically speaking, shouldn't he arrange a working group for me to coordinate all parties? Why haven't there been any movement yet?!"
Others in this era really cannot replace themselves.
Because in his early years, he could not withstand the pressure from the court, Li Tai's words to Kong Yingda became the fuse, while Li Tai became the victim of his concessions.
Faced with Li Tai's extra quietness, the court stared at Li Tai with more or less disappointed.
Li Tai looked at Li Shimin and said, "Aye, it shouldn't be called on the people to carry out corvee labor in spring!"
This is not a question of whether you trust or not. It is still the same saying that after entering Chang'an, the most important thing is actually not how good you do, but how safe you do it.
Perhaps, this is the significance of Li Tai consciously coming to this era, and taking every step steadily, making himself the helmsman of the Tang Dynasty, the ship's helmsman, and determining the direction of the ship's sailing.
If Li Tai sinks into this and eats and drinks, even though he feels a little sad, he will definitely compensate Li Tai.
Fang Xuanling's style of spending money to do things every day is really unable to adapt to the hardships of Fang Xuanling.
Of course, Wang Xuance and his soldiers defeated Tubo, integrated the Qiang tribes in Xihai County, and transferred part of the logistics to these Qiang tribes.
But only the originally damaged official roads can be repaired, and the road leading to a small county town can be found for the people!
But I have really seen a country that is so poor that it has nothing to do. After several generations of hard work, it has built a country where agricultural taxes are abolished.
Li Shimin naturally didn't believe in Li Tai's idea of abolishing the agricultural tax.
Because it has been natural to exploit the people since ancient times, I have always turned a blind eye to them.
Almost a month later, even Li Shimin was a little patient. When Li Tai entered the palace, Li Shimin spoke:
But it is not possible in the Tang Dynasty! I just regretted that I learned too little and saw too close, so I didn’t have the opportunity to memorize the encyclopedia.
This attitude of being distorted when you come to the Ministry of Works has a very powerful difference from Li Tai's decisive behavior.
If you want to say anything, it is because Li Tai was assassinated, so when he came to the Ministry of Works every day, there were 500 guards guarding him.
It is better to dispatch part of the corvee service of the sons to build roads in Luoyang. They are all professional and earn living expenses by working so that they will not affect the construction period."
Listening to Li Tai's slightly joking words, Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction,
"How could Aye do such an unkind way? It's good that you can consider it so comprehensively!"
Li Tai looked like a good baby, and kept Li Shimin's words in his back, looking at Li Shimin with a look of relief and continued,
Li Shimin didn't dare to think about the idea of canceling agricultural tax, just thinking that Li Tai was talking nonsense!
But Li Tai did not sink into decline and gave up, but gritted his teeth and walked out a path that he had never thought about. Even if it was himself, the only thing left now is pride.
"Qingque, how are you in the Ministry of Works?"
Li Shimin patted Li Tai on the shoulder and said calmly: "Since you have a plan, follow your plan! I am not in a hurry!"
"The four parts are operating normally, so I naturally know that when will the God of Vientiane you are talking about start!"
After all, it is easy to catch a worker, but it is easy to catch a guy who does nothing...even if he dereliction of duty, it will take at least two or three months.
In this era, one's own era is really indispensable. The Tang Dynasty is not good now, and one can build it by itself. The court is not good now, and one can correct it by itself. Even even the ignorant people can find ways to educate them.
.
Especially the road from Luoyang to Chang'an, if you build a road, you must discuss it in the court and find a result.
"Because Aye said, the king is a boat, the people are water, and water can carry a boat and can also overturn the boat!"
My choice to give corvee money and to a certain extent guarantee is to recognize their contributions.”
What I say now is just a fool's dream.
Li Tai is so motionless that he does nothing except stepping on the bell every day to get to and from get off work on time.
Of course, this is just corvee service. As for the army, I have to say nothing about it. Wang Xuance, who is in Xihai County and his army are Li Tai's direct descendants, but they are far away in Xihai County, and in theory they should be a bitter and cold place.
.
But this change is not achieved overnight, but I hope to develop in this regard.
My every move can really make this flower of civilization bloom even brighter.
But even so, I must leave a legacy for my future generations as much as possible. This legacy can be wealth, production technology, thoughts and inheritance...
However, for the people of the Censorate, they were only disappointed that they had lost a place to spend their daily life, but for Li Chengqian, who had been prepared for a long time and wanted to make Li Tai suffer.
The vast majority of corvee labor is not the people who bring food and drinks themselves, and then sell their physical work to the court for a period of time!"
"In this case, Qingque will set three goals based on this, or it can be three steps!"
Li Tai himself also knew that what he did was just a turn under the rolling wheels of history, and perhaps he would return to his original trajectory in one day.
When Li Shimin thought of this, he looked at Li Tai and said, "Qingque, what exactly do you think? Why are you so good at corvee labor!"
"I have checked this. Because spring plowing is coming, the four subordinate departments of the Ministry of Works are also quite busy, especially the Field Department and the Water Department. When the operation is carried out, people need to be drawn from other places, so they cannot be freed for construction."
Even the working conditions are very good. You can definitely eat oil and water within a week, and you can also eat three meals a day.
Even so, I have witnessed with my own eyes that the country has gradually changed from weak to strong, from a big country to a strong country, from an inability to an international seat to a truly three-permanent encounter.
Therefore, the working group model of retrieving members from the six ministries of the court basically does not pass until the cross-province period, and even once the project is completed, it will be immediately removed.
But the reality is that Wang Xuance's army ate meat everywhere and needed tea cakes to help them relieve their greasiness.
Xuanling said that if there are too many institutions, it is easy to make people bloated and they are overly erratic. After thinking about it, I also think that Xuanling’s statement makes sense.”
Li Shimin nodded. No matter what, in Li Shimin's eyes, Li Tai has been working hard to implement this step.
Anyway, don’t say that I am in the Ministry of Works, even if I arrange myself to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Sinong Temple or the Honglu Temple, Li Tai doesn’t think it’s clean inside.
So it is best not to move around before your direct line comes.
Li Shimin looked at Li Tai in front of him and said seriously:
Because Li Shimin had never seen such a world, he did not think that such a world existed.
When Li Shimin listened to Li Tai's words, he couldn't help but feel a little throbbing in his heart, and he suddenly understood a little.
Li Shimin thought of this and said to Li Tai, "Qingque, what about the third one!"
The so-called people are water and the king is boat. Li Tai felt that he was brought in by himself as a personal person, so his understanding was a bit narrow.
After all, the King of Wei was assassinated in Luoyang, and now there are more guards, everyone can understand.
Not to mention that Li Tai is the King of Wei, who can control Li Tai as long as he goes to and from get off work on time every day.
In fact, what Li Shimin said about the people who serve the water may be the people, but the king serves as the boat, which is the country of the entire Tang Dynasty!
Compared with other corvee labor, Li Tai's corvee labor is more of a job than a corvee labor.
Although this incident bought him time, Li Tai no longer believed in orthodox doctrines.
This made Li Shimin occasionally sigh that Li Tai treated these corvee labor very well.
They are not lacking in ability or intelligence, but they do not have a brilliant future that they believe in extremely strongly.
Li Shimin rubbed Li Tai's head and said, "Originally Ruhui planned to configure one for you, but it was rejected by Xuanling.
"The first step is that people can have no worries about food and clothing!" Li Tai said to Li Shimin solemnly, "This is also the goal of the Agricultural University, which is to be able to study enough food, at least to prevent the people on this land from being never allowed to be
starve!"
But Li Shimin was accustomed to the fact that the people were recruited as corvee service, after all, this has been the case since ancient times.
Generally speaking, even rich peasants may not receive this treatment, but they receive this treatment when they are in labor service under the King of Wei.
"Oh?" Li Shimin was a little curious when he heard Li Tai's words and asked with a smile, "What's the goal!"
Li Tai raised his eyebrows when he heard Li Shimin's words. It was obvious that Li Shimin said this, but Li Tai didn't believe it at all. It seemed that Li Shimin was still looking forward to the so-called God of All Things!
"Then I will urge Wang Zhenru and others to come to Gaoling as soon as possible!" Li Tai looked at Li Shimin and said,
But no matter what, this food is better than the Chang'an Imperial Guard, which is simply outrageous!
To be honest, Fang Xuanling is the least willing to increase his position in the court. Even if he can, he should try to streamline the organization and use one person as three people. This is what Fang Xuanling likes.
"If so, how should the corvee service of the people around Chang'an be handled?" Li Shimin asked in a deep voice when he heard Li Tai's words.
Li Shimin was stunned when he heard Li Tai's words, and had no answer for a while.
Because Li Shimin has been a noble family since he was a child, even though Li Shimin had the idea of the people being the king being the most important.
However, Li Tai, who came to Chang'an, became a clay sculpture and wood carving, and did not work at all, was too different from the popular King of Wei at that time.
"The Ministry of Works is very good, and the four departments are operating normally!" Li Tai said with a calm look on his face when he looked at Li Shimin.
In this process, there is something that needs to be involved in the people. One is to call for honor, and the other is to make real compensation for materials, at least it is no longer like corvee service.
"Abolish the agricultural tax!" Li Tai said seriously, "My purpose of developing agriculture is to abolish the agricultural tax!"
Li Tai looked at Li Shimin's indifferent laughter, but he didn't force himself to say anything.
Let’s wait for Wang Zhenru and the others to come over. At least the people from the Ministry of Works really dare not give them important tasks now.
Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed, "Qingque, you have to work hard, Aye is looking forward to that day!"
Although Li Tai seems to be able to make money now, the big part of the national tax revenue is still on the land.
It is undeniable that such a country has all kinds of shortcomings. Even though he made a promise to his successor when he was a child, he became only a consumable for the times in the end.
Even if the land controlled by the Tang Dynasty is one square meter more, when the dynasty conquers it in the future, the four big words "since ancient times" can be said with confidence.
In the past country, I was just a consumable that could be copied at any time. No matter how hard I worked, I would eventually have people who worked harder, smarter and more stylized than me to replace me.
After hearing this, Li Tai nodded. He originally wanted Ma Zhou to introduce a few people to him, but it seemed that he would have forgotten it.
"What do you think? It's not that you always come up with a plan that needs Kuazhou to adjust. What kind of working group is arranged? You are the Minister of Works, and you can't decide what else you have!"
Even if I am lazy, complain, or escape, I can still survive in Anyi. After all, there are people who are braver and greater than me who support the sky for me, this incompetent person.
However, Li Shimin looked at Li Tai again and felt that Li Tai's employment was different, that is, Li Tai's respect for the people.
Li Tai looked at Li Shimin and said, "Of course, it's not impossible for Aye to work. After all, it will take at least three months to plow in spring, let alone the wheat will be harvested by the end of May.
"The second step is that the people do not increase taxes!" Li Tai said: "The people do not increase taxes and the national football team has always been my goal.
It's like a general who wants to dispatch the entire army. Unless that person has a very high reputation, he needs his own personal guard to come and suppress it so that the entire army can slowly make it look like an arm and a finger.
So I have to wait slowly and wait for my own people to come!
Today I watched Wandering Earth 2. I can only say that I, a otakus who is very good at eating, can live a peaceful life because there are many people I can see and cannot see, and even sacrifice!
