Under Li Ming's order, each craftsman started to act quickly.

In just three days, the first spinning machine was produced.

This is a big guy about 6 meters long and 1.5 meters wide. It can spin 32 yarns at the same time. Driven by manpower or animal power, it can spin nearly 120 catties of cotton yarn a day, and its efficiency is almost faster than today's spinning machines. It is more than hundreds of times, and even far surpasses the spinning jenny of the previous industrial age.

Li Ming couldn't help being extremely satisfied with this, and rewarded all the craftsmen on the spot ranging from hundreds to hundreds of coins.

After the tools are done, the next step is naturally the other steps of wool spinning.

Wool weaving, of course, not only needs looms, it is a systematic process.

The collected wool needs to go through a series of processes such as removing impurities, needle combing, and curling before it can reach the weaving process.

But fortunately, there are enough people in the Shaofu now, and one more thing, the influence on the Shaofu is almost non-existent.

As time goes by.

Immediately, the entire Shaofu began to get busy in an orderly manner.

on the grassland.

The compilation of accounts for Qimin has already begun.

Li Ming's trade also started at the same time as the proposal.

Datang purchased cattle, sheep, and wool on the grassland, and at the same time provided supplies for the entire grassland.

Datang's majestic supplies made all the tribes look bright at the very beginning.

In the time and space of history, the grassland people would go to war because of lack of trade. In this world of Journey to the West, the attraction of Datang trade is still extremely huge.

Especially when they exchanged cattle, sheep, and even the almost useless wool for supplies that were difficult to obtain when they went south to rob, everyone couldn't help being excited.

Even compared to the herdsmen at the bottom, the leaders of those tribes were more excited.

After all, they have more cattle and horses than ordinary herdsmen, and they can undoubtedly obtain more things.

The only thing that bothered them was that Datang didn't need horses, so they could sell them, but the price was so low that it could even be ignored.

But it's just a headache.

He quickly suppressed his emotions.

After all, cattle and sheep, especially wool, are also available on the grasslands.

In this case.

For a time, the entire grassland was in full swing.

A large number of cattle were driven into the border and began to trade with Datang.

At the same time, this year's wool was cut in advance and began to enter the trade.

The initial transaction was naturally barter, but with the passage of time, the coins of the Tang Dynasty will inevitably circulate throughout the grassland. At that time, the ability to fight on horseback and the self-sufficient economy will be lost. Nor will it be a threat.

And that time won't be too far away.

It may even take only three to five years for the entire grassland to undergo a complete change.

But these are not what Li Ming needs to pay attention to now.

For him, the most important thing at present is to raise the national strength to the third level.

As time went by, his national strength was getting closer and closer to the third level.

After several years of development, some things have begun to stand out.

Raising pigs, raising chickens and ducks, building roads, making steel, promoting potatoes, and spreading money.

Everything is improving the national strength.

It's just hard to show in a short time.

But when the time entered Zhenguan four years later, in four years, something has begun to show.

The most direct manifestation is that Datang's food problem has been completely solved.

3000 million shi of potatoes were planted again, and the output of potatoes reached more than [-] million shi.

Although the output of potatoes has been planted in these rounds, and the real dragon blessing has almost dissipated, its output can no longer be as terrifying as before, but it is still stable at the level of fifty to sixty stones per mu .

This kind of output is still extremely terrifying.

The promotion of adding potatoes to Li Ming Restaurant has gradually become known to the public.

The promotion went extremely smoothly.

This year, most of the common people in the whole world have planted some potatoes.

With the cultivation of these potatoes, famine will never appear in Datang again.

This and the improvement of national power are undoubtedly extremely eye-catching.

At the same time, in the past four years, every household in the entire Guanzhong has raised chickens and ducks, and even pigs, one of the three households must have raised them.

This is also thanks to the fact that the locust plague has continued to wreak havoc in the past two years.

The large number of locusts purchased by Shaofu is enough to meet the laying of pig breeding streams.

Although the plague of locusts cannot last forever, but now the potatoes have been pushed up and can be fully supported.

And with these, it doesn't look very eye-catching, but in fact the changes are extremely obvious.

The dishes on the faces of the common people have almost disappeared now, and there are more smiles on everyone's faces than before.

Life now is unimaginable to them.

In particular, the people near Chang'an can almost see the changes in their homes with the naked eye.

Not only is the food better, the living is better, and the money in the hands is also more.

Near Chang'an, or even throughout Guanzhong, as long as you work hard, you can earn income.

Catching locusts, digging Imperata, or going to Shaofu to work.

If you are willing to work hard, you can get at least thirty coins a day. If you are lucky enough, one hundred coins is not a big problem.

Such income was unimaginable to them.

As for outside of Guanzhong.

Now it's not that they can't make money, but outside of Guanzhong, most of them are still in the midst of natural disasters, and Datang is constantly providing disaster relief.

Relief with work has been gradually rolled out.

Especially after Qin Huaidao and Cheng Chuliang returned, Gu Gong in Shaofu further expanded.

In the autumn of the fourth year of Zhenguan.

The number of Gu workers in Shaofu officially exceeded 20.

The 20 are less than [-] in the Guanzhong area.

The number of people outside Guanzhong has reached more than 15, and it is still increasing.

This year, the number of people breaking through 30 is already a certainty.

Fortunately, there was a good harvest of potatoes. Otherwise, the food support of such a huge Gu Gong would be enough to completely drag down the entire Shaofu.

After all, 20 people, even if each person only consumes one catty of grain per day, would consume more than 7000 million catties of grain in that year. Three years ago in Zhenguan, the treasury of the Tang Dynasty could not support it, let alone Shaofu.

But now the problem is not so big.

A large number of high-yield potatoes is enough, not to mention locusts, and soybean oil.

Let alone 20 now, even 50 is enough.

And it's just Shaofu.

After all, today's Shaofu has encircled the area where the real dragon's blessing is the strongest, covering tens of thousands of acres. If potatoes are planted, at least 80, or even 100 million shi of grain will be provided a year.

This does not take into account the benefits of other regions in Shaofu.

Today's Shaofu is a real giant.

There is money, food, and soldiers.

If it weren't for the lack of some departments, today's Shaofu can be directly linked to the Shaofu at the peak of the Western Han Dynasty.

With such a powerful strength, anyone who arrives at the Shaofu will feel terrified.

Even if the outside world is not very clear about the situation of the Shaofu, there are already some targeted intentions above the court.

The first is Yushi.

Then came the officials.

The size of the Shaofu made them vaguely uneasy.

But obviously, these voices were suppressed by Li Shimin.

He is not my Qing emperor, and he is not too worried about his son being too capable.

In the current situation where Datang is besieged on all sides, Li Shimin is more aware of how great the threat of Datang is, so he naturally knows what to do.

And Daddy Cheap's "don't care about it" made the development of the entire Shaofu smoother and the expansion even bigger.

For Li Ming, the most direct manifestation is that his power has grown stronger and stronger.

Even if he is not the prime ministers of the three provinces and six ministries, the power he has is even greater than these people.

Among the Tang Dynasty.

It can be said that as long as he disagrees with all policies, it is almost impossible to implement them.

This allowed him to attack the entire Tang Dynasty more and more vigorously and deeply, and his influence was also growing.

And the effect naturally became more and more obvious.

After all, although he may not be an elite better than this era, but his insights from the era of information explosion in his previous life, as well as the continuous things given by the sign-in system, and the expressions he can achieve are far more than this era.

These brand-new policies and systems will undoubtedly have a huge influence and role in this era.

And these influences will undoubtedly turn into national power in the end.

In the sky above Datang.

Luck is rising, and powerful luck is spreading.

The phantom of the golden dragon became more and more clear.

Obviously, in these short four years, the improvement of Datang's national strength is extremely obvious.

"Ding, congratulations on increasing your national power, country +1!"

"Ding, congratulations on increasing your national power, country +1!"

.........

There were voices beside my ears, and they almost never stopped from the beginning.

And among these voices, the national power is getting closer and closer to [-].

Finally, when the sky of September gradually entered the autumn of October, the improvement of national power finally crossed the critical point at that moment and reached a higher level.

"Ding, congratulations on increasing your national strength."

"National power acquisition! National power +1!"

The mechanical sound sounded, just like before.

It wasn't too noticeable.

But this time, the value in front of him was adjusted immediately.

The national power, which was originally stuck at more than 9000, was instantly mobilized to [-] at this moment.

"Ding, congratulations on reaching [-] national strength!"

"System level upgrade!"

"update completed!"
