When the first batch of materials began to be delivered to fifteen natural villages, and they selected workers from among the victims, and when the construction of the resettlement villages began, Li Min was completely relieved.
In fact, these victims were not so much resettled by King Qi as they were directly taken over by Datang Bank.
All the King of Qi has to do is to cooperate with Datang Bank to prevent the victims from getting plagued by the plague and prevent them from having various problems.
Thanks to Li Min's efforts, Xu Hui and Liu Zhi also became pregnant.
Li Min spends more time at home with the ladies and children.
The three little guys are now more than eight months old and can already crawl on the ground.
Now, it is even more impossible to lock them down.
I go out to play every day and like to crawl around on the grass.
Moreover, the three little guys also like to compete to see who can climb faster.
What Li Min likes most is spending time with the three little guys.
What he especially likes is his daughter Li Rong.
This actually made Wu Meiniang breathe a sigh of relief.
The three sisters had their children at almost the same time.
But she was the only one to give birth to a girl.
This made Wu Meiniang feel very uneasy.
After all, in that era, the mentality of favoring boys over girls was still quite serious.
What if the husband doesn’t like the girl?
Wouldn't it mean that she and she would be left out in the cold?
Fortunately, it didn't happen. The husband didn't dislike the girl.
I even like Ronger more.
I always like to play with Ronger in my arms.
When Baoyu and Tianci were naughty, her husband would sometimes shine his light on the buttocks and give her a few gentle slaps.
But for Ronger, this has never happened before.
As the weather got hot, Li Min also bought a few baby swimming rings.
Put it on a few little ones and throw them directly into the swimming pool.
At first, it scared a few little guys to the point of crying.
Then, wait for them to react, huh?
It doesn't sink at all and looks very fun.
They fell in love with swimming and had a great time.
Of course, Li Min is also keeping an eye on the construction progress of the resettlement villages in Qizhou.
There must be someone secretly setting the pace in Qizhou.
And Li Min has already found out that this matter was done by King Li Tai of Wei.
I am afraid of comparison in everything!
In the same flood, if another prince did worse than him.
So in comparison, he seems to be much better.
However, once he intervenes, he is destined to be disappointed.
Not only that, Li Min also insisted on letting Li Shimin see the gap between the two.
The most famous construction teams in Shandong were hired for the construction of the fifteen resettlement villages.
The project was collectively contracted to them.
Of course, we made an agreement with them in advance that if we use workers, we must use those disaster victims.
In fact, some construction teams are also very happy to use the victims' belongings.
For one thing, they themselves simply don’t have that many manpower.
Secondly, the labor wages for the disaster victims are very cheap.
Usually when they contract big projects, they often worry about not being able to find the manpower.
But now, there is no need to worry at all.
There is a lot of manpower right next to them.
Although they don't have much room to choose, as long as they can be used, they basically use them.
But the wages are cheap, so they take a big advantage.
Within a month, each of the fifteen resettlement villages built an average of about 100 houses.
As soon as this house was basically completed and all furniture and other items were purchased, many disaster victims applied to move in.
The first batch of victims to move in were basically local victims of Qizhou.
Mainly, their important properties were transferred out in advance.
I have some urgent needs on hand, and I am not afraid of the monthly repayment of 200 yuan.
Secondly, they trusted King Qi very much.
They believed that King Qi would never cheat them.
There are more than a hundred resettlement houses, all of which are green bricks and red tiles, and beautiful courtyard houses.
The planning of the resettlement village is also neat and tidy and looks very beautiful.
After all the more than 100 resettlement houses were filled, the resettlement village suddenly became lively as it gained popularity.
Those victims who hesitated and did not apply for a house could not help but regret it all of a sudden.
But it doesn’t matter, the resettlement housing is still under construction anyway.
Moreover, after more than a month of work, they have earned some wages.
Thirty cents a day, one laborer for a month is 900 cents.
Those with a lot of labor at home can earn several thousand cash a month.
With money in hand, I have no objection to having to pay back 200 cents every month.
The current construction work of the resettlement villages is under the dual supervision of Datang Bank and Prince Qi's Mansion.
Nothing could possibly go wrong.
However, Li Min actually has different thoughts about the subsequent development of these villagers after the construction of the resettlement village is completed.
The promise made to the victims at that time was that they would be allowed to work in Yizhou New City.
But there are fifty to sixty thousand victims in Qizhou.
Even for the labor force, there are nearly ten thousand people.
If so many laborers flow into Yizhou New City, I am afraid there will be a labor surplus.
The most important thing is that by doing so, you treat the symptoms rather than the root cause.
Wouldn't it be better if some specialty industries could be developed in Qizhou?
However, what is good to develop in Qizhou?
This is a problem...
After thinking for a long time, Li Min decided to try out a few breeding farms in Qizhou.
Well, build a chicken farm and a pig farm.
Now, the entire Datang economy is improving.
The number of middle-class families is gradually increasing.
Everyone's living conditions have improved and they have money.
After several years of recuperation, the population is now increasing.
The consumption of chicken, duck and fish meat is also increasing.
However, the production of chicken and duck meat has not actually increased much.
Because except for those remote rural areas.
As long as you can work somewhere, the money you can earn from working will definitely be higher than raising chickens or pigs at home.
Moreover, in family farming, how many can you raise?
Therefore, the price of chicken, duck and fish meat is still high.
The market is in short supply.
If this is the case, there is quite a market for establishing several breeding farms in Qizhou.
If you want to build a breeding farm, you can only invest in it yourself.
Every household of the disaster victims has a mortgage. They have neither money to invest nor dare to invest.
As long as the breeding farm is built, it's just a matter of finding some villagers to do the work.
In this way, they can work at home without going out.
Thinking of this, Li Min immediately found the scientific research institute in Yizhou New City and ordered them to set up a separate dedicated breeding research group.
This group is specifically responsible for technical research on scientific breeding.
In fact, there are now tens of thousands of scientific researchers in scientific research institutes.
The division of labor is also becoming more and more detailed.
According to Li Min's request, agriculture and animal husbandry have specialized scientific research groups.
But now, the animal husbandry group is just separated.
Next, Li Min began to prepare manpower and had all the preliminary manpower prepared.
In fact, Li Min has extremely complete information on scientific breeding for later generations.
However, in this era, there is no feed, and there are not so many medicines.
Which technologies of later generations are naturally undesirable.
Therefore, we can only rely on the conditions of this era to carry out the most scientific research on intensive breeding.
Soon, the preparations were completed.
Li Min first discussed with his brother Li Ke that they were going to build a breeding farm in Qizhou.
Of course Li Ke knew that this was his younger brother who was helping him again. How could he refuse?
And I am even more grateful to my younger brother.
Soon, the advance team of the breeding farm began to rush to Qizhou.
At this time, the construction work of the resettlement village was nearing completion.
The vast majority of the victims have moved into new houses.
There are still a few victims because the resettlement villages have not yet been completed.
But they all live close to relatives and friends.
They are very satisfied with the resettlement housing.
Because for the vast majority of disaster victims, resettlement houses are much more beautiful and spacious than their houses that were destroyed by floods.
But at this time, they still felt a little uneasy in their hearts.
Although the resettlement house is very good, with all the furniture and farm tools inside, they basically don't need to spend money to buy anything new.
However, the construction of resettlement housing is almost completed now.
Next, can they really be arranged to work in Yizhou New City?
If not, how will they pay back the money?
Once the money is not paid, won't their house be repossessed?
At this moment, news suddenly came.
Zhonghua Commercial Bank is planning to invest in the construction of a large-scale chicken farm and large-scale pig farm here.
And they have already found a place and will start construction soon.
I heard that the scale of this breeding farm will be very large.
Because there are not only breeding farms, but also chicken and pig killing plants, as well as freezing workshops.
Then there are many processes such as distribution.
Just the labor alone would probably require tens of thousands of people.
After receiving this news, these victims could not help but feel completely relieved.
Soon, construction of the hatchery began.
Well, let’s take a breeding farm as an example. If you want to raise chickens, you must first hatch them.
On the other hand, the pig farm can start construction directly.
…
In Chang'an City, rumors suddenly spread that the emperor wanted to depose the prince.
Li Shimin quickly responded to this matter.
He appointed Wei Zheng as the Crown Prince's Grand Master to show that he had no intention of abolishing the Crown Prince.
After hearing the news, King Li Tai of Wei was very angry and broke several fine inkstones in his study.
Not long after, Xue Yantuo's Zhenzhu Khan offered 3,000 horses and 38,000 mink skins to the Tang Dynasty, and at the same time proposed to the Princess of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Shimin accepted the gift. As for Xue Yantuo's proposal of pearl Khan, Li Shimin decisively rejected it.
Since Songtsen Gampo's last marriage proposal was blocked by the words of Shu King Li Min, the Tang Dynasty also changed the bad habit of using princesses for marriage.
In the current Tang Dynasty, there is really no marriage or marriage. The monarch guards the country and the prince guards the country!
Xue Yantuo was completely scared to death by the King of Shu last time.
Their Zhenzhu Khan originally wanted to ease the relationship with Datang through marriage proposal.
At the same time, because they fled thousands of miles north.
As a result, the Turks occupied a large area of their territory and they were ready to take it back.
However, what Zhenzhu Khan did not expect was that Tang Dynasty actually rejected his proposal.
This made Zhenzhu Khan very angry and felt that he had been insulted.
Of course, for the time being, their national strength has not yet slowed down.
No matter how angry I am, I can only keep it silently in my heart.
Then, another big event happened in Korea.
King Wu of Goryeo was killed by his minister Gaisu Wen, and then Gaisu Wen made the king's disciple Zang the king.
Then some ministers requested to attack Goryeo.
Li Shimin thought over and over again, and finally did not choose to attack Goryeo because Shandong suffered floods.
And this year is destined to be an eventful year.
Just after these news, another news suddenly came out.
It is said that when Qi King Li Ke resettled the victims, he not only withheld relief food.
They even used the excuse of building resettlement villages to lend usury to the victims.
The victims were filled with resentment and anger, and the people were agitated.
Those censors originally had the right to gossip about things.
After getting the news, he immediately submitted a memorial to the King of Qi.
After Prince Li Chengqian and Wei King Li Tai learned the news.
They even mobilized their power to add fuel to the flames, causing more than one-third of the ministers in the court to impeach Qi King Li Ke.
For a moment, I felt that Qi King Li Ke had committed such a heinous crime that he could not be tolerated in the world.
Basically everyone thinks that this time, Qi King Li Ke is doomed.
At this time, Li Shimin was also very angry.
In his heart, he has always liked his son Li Ke.
Because Li Ke was versatile in both civil and military affairs, he was the son most like him.
But it was because Li Ke’s biological mother was Concubine Yang, the daughter of Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty.
Therefore, Li Shimin could only keep this love deep in his heart.
Even when Li Shimin was extremely disgusted with the prince.
I also compared several of his sons, and I even thought in my heart.
The best candidate to succeed him as emperor turned out to be Li Min or Li Ke.
Li Ke was even more satisfied with him than Li Min.
Because Li Min, his son, always gave him a feeling that he couldn't see through and couldn't control it.
On the contrary, he likes her not as much as Li Ke.
But I never expected that Li Ke could do such a thing!
He was so disappointed!
Suddenly, Li Shimin was ready to order Li Ke to return to Beijing to plead his case.
But this time, I'm afraid he won't be able to go back at all.
However, at this moment, Li Shimin received a letter from Li Min, King of Shu.
After reading the letter from his most capable son, Li Shimin was silent for a long time and fell into deep thought.
In the letter, there were several passages that deeply touched Li Shimin.
Father, I do not believe that my brother would do such a thing.
Three people become tigers. Even the mother of the sage Zengzi knew her son so well.
Because three people said that his son committed murder, Zeng's mother believed it.
Now, many people are impeaching my brother.
He said that he lent usury to the victims, which made the victims angry and resentful.
Where did these things come from?
I heard that I always start from which censor.
As for the censors, they all hear what is said and catch the shadows.
As for other ministers, the shadow of a barking dog and the barking of hundreds of dogs are all hearsay.
Why don't your father go to Qizhou to have a look in person?
If the father only heard about it and wanted to punish his brother, wouldn't it chill his heart?
Prior to this, Erchen had also been wronged and framed for murdering Concubine Cui.
But the facts proved that Erchen was wronged.
And now, after the sons, there is the elder brother.
I hope my father can learn from this!
At the end of this letter, the writing is a little unclear.
But Li Shimin understood it.
First someone wrongly accused Li Min, and then someone wrongly accused Li Ke.
Their mothers and concubines are both Concubines Yang.
Some people are adding fuel to the flames in this matter.
As for the officials who were impeached, Li Shimin could notice if he paid a little attention that they were all officials from the prince and Wei Wang factions.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin felt a slight chill in his heart.
There might be something fishy in this matter, as Min'er said!
Thinking of this, Li Shimin really listened to the words of Shu King Li Min and decided to pay a private visit incognito.
In order not to alert the enemy, Li Shimin deliberately used physical discomfort as an excuse to pretend that he was going to Yizhou to recuperate.
He brought several censors, Wei Zheng and others with him.
But when it was time to set out, he did not go to Yizhou, but went straight to Qizhou.
It was only then that the few people traveling with Li Shimin discovered the emperor's true intention.
At this time, Li Min also got the news that Li Shimin came to Yizhou to recuperate, but actually went to Qizhou for a private visit, and couldn't help but smile.
In fact, this news was deliberately released by Li Min's orders.
Li Min believed that any imperial censor would find trouble to impeach someone no matter what.
When they hear such rumors, they will definitely not confirm whether there is such a thing, and will directly file a memorial for impeachment.
After all, they have the right to hear and speak out.
They can even tell what they think might happen.
Not to mention, these things are true rumors.
As soon as the censor impeaches the prince, I believe that the prince and the king of Wei will not investigate the truth of the matter, and will inevitably follow the impeachment.
In fact, if the target of their impeachment is not King Qi.
Li Min did not write any letter to Li Shimin.
If Li Shimin didn't go to Weifu for a private visit.
Regardless of whether the King of Qi did such a thing or not, the result of sending people to investigate was that such a thing must have happened.
The officials that the Crown Prince and the King of Wei want to get rid of will inevitably be eliminated.
There are no ghosts who died unjustly in that temple?
But what they never expected was that all of this was actually just some tricks used by Li Min, the king of Shu.
…
In half a day, Li Shimin quietly arrived in Qizhou with several censors and dozens of guards.
The purpose of their coming here is to conduct a private visit incognito and find out the truth of the matter.
Therefore, they naturally disguised themselves as a group of merchants and entered Qizhou.
After arriving in Qizhou, they quickly arrived at the first of the fifteen resettlement villages.
Outside the village, Li Shimin and a group of others took a closer look at the resettlement village, and couldn't help but feel like their eyes were shining brightly.
Although Li Shimin was the emperor, he had experienced the brutal wars in the late Sui and early Tang Dynasties.
Therefore, he has seen a lot of villages in his life.
But the resettlement village in front of him can be said to be the most beautiful village he has ever seen.
The entire village has houses of the same style.
The unified red bricks and blue tiles, and the unified wing rooms, give it a neat and uniform aesthetic.
Every street and alley is horizontal and vertical.
Every road in the village is paved with cement.
The streets are clean, and you don't see the mess and clutter that you see in ordinary villages.
Just looking at it from the outside is really an eye-opener for this group of people.
However, you can't just look at appearances.
No matter how beautifully the village is built, it will be of no use if the villagers cannot live a good life and complain.
Next, they began to approach the village.
At this time, there were not many people in the village.
I could only see some children playing outside and a few old people sunbathing at the door.
But these children playing outside were actually wearing unpatched clothes.
Some of the children were even wearing new clothes.
There is no trace of color on these children's faces, and they all look healthy.
This scene couldn't help but make Li Shimin's face look thoughtful.
But the faces of the several censors who came with Li Shimin didn't look very good.
Several of them were involved in the memorial to impeach King Qi.
They usually impeach people, some based on hearsay, and some simply based on rumors.
As for King Qi's matter, they really heard these rumors.
Now that the story has spread to Chang'an, they believe it must be true.
Otherwise, how could it have spread?
But now it seems that things are a little different from what they imagined!
At this time, Li Shimin couldn't help but walk towards an old woman who was sunbathing outside the door.
Then he greeted politely: "Old man, we are businessmen passing by and want to ask you something."
The old woman was not afraid or surprised when she saw so many people standing in front of her.
Instead, he asked: "You are passing businessmen. Are you thirsty and asking for water? Just wait, the old woman will go and get you some water."
Li Shimin said quickly: "Old man, you don't have to work anymore. We are not thirsty and we are not here to ask for water! We just want to ask you something!"
After hearing this, the old woman asked: "What do you want to know about? Just ask the old woman, there is nothing in these ten miles and eight villages that the old woman doesn't know!"
Li Shimin couldn't help but nodded and asked: "Old man, I heard that you have suffered disasters before, and your houses were all built by the imperial court. Is that so?"
The old woman nodded and said: "Yes, this house is really well-renovated! How can we ourselves be willing to repair such a good house! It's comfortable to live here! It's so wonderful for the old woman to be able to live in such a good house in this life.
It’s worth dying!”
Um?
There doesn't seem to be any resentment in the old woman's words, right?
Those censors felt that something was wrong in their hearts, which became even more intense.
No, you can't ask like that. It's probably because the emperor's way of asking questions is wrong.
Thinking of this, a censor couldn't help but ask: "Old man, let me ask you, are these houses given to you by King Qi on loan sharks? Do you hate King Qi in your heart?"
"Pooh!"
(Double monthly pass, one ticket is worth two, it’s really amazing! Did you try it today?)
