Datang: Time travel in two months, wait online, hurry up!

Page 94

"This will provide my Datang with a steady stream of talents, and I no longer need to rely on five surnames and seven hopes!"

Li Daozong also stood up and expressed his views.

He must be on Li Ke's side, there is no doubt about it.

Any behavior of Li Ke, he has no brains to support.

But these words, he really came from the heart!

After all, he belongs to the clan of the Tang Dynasty, and the behavior of the five surnames and seven Wangs disrespecting the royal family made him very annoyed.

Now seeing that Li Ke can print such good books in large quantities, it undoubtedly gave him an opportunity to attack the five surnames and seven hopefuls!

"Your Majesty, King Wu's move is a great achievement!"

Wei Zheng on the side looked at Li Shimin seriously.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Wu has changed the cultural structure of our Great Tang!"

Song Guogong Xiao Yu also stood up and spoke for Li Ke.

Seeing that these two people also stood up to speak for him, Li Ke couldn't help being slightly taken aback.

If it is said that Fang Xuanling made money because his wife did business with him, then what is the reason for Wei Zheng and Xiao Yu?

These two people's personalities are the kind of oily and salty.

Li Ke thought about it, probably because he simply thought that the paper and books he produced were indeed of great significance and influence!

Changsun Wuji really wanted to stand up and refute, but he couldn't find a reason to refute.

Because he can be regarded as gaining wisdom by eating a ditch, and now it is obviously Li Ke's tailwind, and he can't rush to the tower to give his head away.

Besides, if someone says, you have a kind of paper that will not be made by Li Ke in the future, then he will be embarrassed.

After all, although he can't understand Li Ke.

But this paper is really good!

"My dear friends and I think the same way." "

Li Shimin nodded in satisfaction, and then said: "I want King Wu to be the minister of the Ministry of Rites, responsible for the supervision of paper making, printing of books, establishment of colleges, etc. What do you think?"

After listening to Li Shimin's words, all the ministers suddenly realized!

I know the content of the encrypted call between Li Shimin and Li Ke and his son.

The father and son had reached an agreement before.

It is estimated that Li Ke made the paper and books, and Li Shimin made him the Minister of Rites!

When Li Shimin asked this just now, he was just asking for their opinions.

Even if they disagree, Li Shimin will find a way to make Li Ke the Minister of Rites.

After trying to understand Li Shimin's thoughts, everyone naturally understood.

"Your Majesty is wise, His Royal Highness King Wu is definitely the most suitable to take the post of Minister of Rites!"

"That's right, His Royal Highness King Wu was already known as the 'Sage of Poetry', the number one talented scholar in the Tang Dynasty, and it is only natural that he should be the Minister of Rites!"

"His Royal Highness King Wu made such paper and books, and his influence on scholars is comparable to that of Confucius and Mencius. It is no problem to be a minister of the Ministry of Rites!"

A group of ministers expressed their approval of Li Shimin's proposal.

And by the way, he boasted about Li Ke.

What impact on scholars is comparable to what Confucius and Mencius have said.

Li Ke paid attention and found that this sentence was said by Chai Shao.

Good guy, as expected of uncle!

If everyone has no opinion, then this matter is naturally a matter of course.

However, he is not yet the Minister of Rites.

He will be the Minister of Rites after Li Shimin announces that the current Minister of Rites will be transferred to another position in the early morning of tomorrow.

But this matter has been settled, and there will be no more mistakes.

Well, I am now a third-rank genuine.

Well, I have already reached the qualification to purchase the top limited tea!

This is a huge improvement.

The matter of paper and books is over, and I have basically got my Book of Rites.

Li Ke thought about running away, and let Li Shimin and the ministers continue their discussions.

"Ke'er, you stay here and discuss matters together."

Li Shimin did not let him go, but let him stay here.

Because, he was thinking about the next discussion issue, Li Ke might have a solution.

"Yes!"

Hearing this, Li Ke could only give up the idea of running away.

"Everyone, there has been heavy rain recently, and the official roads everywhere are muddy and embarrassing. Even the roads in Chang'an City are slippery."

"Do you have any good solutions?"

A look of sadness flashed across Li Shimin's face, and he asked everyone.

Recently, it has been raining heavily for several days, and the roads have been destroyed and battered.

Since most of the official roads and the roads in Chang'an City are paved with rammed earth, it is fine to let the dust fly when the wind blows.

Once it rains heavily, and it lasts for several days, the road is muddy and very difficult to walk.

Whether it is a person or a carriage, there are three slips.

If the official road is not easy to walk, the traffic between various places will be greatly affected.

Many caravans, convoys transporting supplies, and the travel of ordinary people have been greatly affected.

Recently, the price of goods in Chang'an City has increased a little, because the roads are muddy, and it is very difficult to transport outside materials to Chang'an City.

If this problem is not solved, there will be problems!

Recently, he has received many memorials from below, all talking to him about this matter.

So, I thought about calling the ministers to Ganlu Palace to discuss how to solve this matter.

"This problem is not easy to solve. The most direct way is to pave the roads with stone slabs, but if the roads are all paved with stone slabs, my Tang's finances will definitely not be able to bear such a huge expenditure!"

Fang Xuanling shook his head, this question is very difficult.

There is a way, just spread the stone slabs directly.

But the mining, cutting, and laying of stone slabs require a lot of manpower, material and financial resources!

It is definitely not something that the current Datang can afford.

"Yes, laying stone slabs is the best way, but it's too expensive."

The others also nodded, and everyone had the same idea.

"Actually, it's nothing. It's hard to walk when it's raining heavily. It's easy to walk when the weather clears. It can't rain every day, right?"

Some ministers also said that they don't need to worry about it. Since there is no way to solve it, they can only wait for the weather to clear.

I've been here for so many years, what's the matter.

Seeing that everyone had no good solution, Li Shimin turned his attention to Li Ke.

"Ke'er, do you have any suggestions?"

Li Shimin looked at Li Ke with a little expectation in his eyes.

He didn't know why, but he always felt that Li Ke might have a way.

So he just kept Li Ke.

"If the road is bad, rebuild the road."

Li Ke smiled slightly and said to Li Shimin.

He was suddenly glad that Li Shimin had left him just now.

Otherwise, wouldn't you miss out on a big deal?

Road construction, this is a big project!

"¨. Road construction? What materials are used for repair?"

Li Shimin continued to ask him.

Stones are definitely not acceptable, because stones are uneven and have different shapes.

If it is laid on the road like this, it will be difficult for the carriage to move an inch.

slate?

That's too expensive and time-consuming.

"cement!"

Li Ke said confidently.

He had asked people to build the facilities for burning cement before.

But it never burned.

Now to build roads, the cement will naturally come in handy!

"cement?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin and all the ministers were stunned.

What is cement?

If you use mud to build roads, isn't it muddy when it rains?

"Cement is a new type of building material that Erchen has only recently researched."

"Roads built with cement are not only solid and durable, but also extremely smooth, no matter the wind or rain, they can be as smooth as walking on the ground!"

Li Ke briefly introduced the role of cement to everyone.

"Oh? So amazing?"

Li Shimin and others couldn't help being slightly surprised when they heard this.

This new material called cement sounds very good.

"What's the cost? What's the speed of construction?"

Li Shimin then asked two key questions.

If the cost is too high, no matter how good it is, it will be in vain.

The speed of construction is also very important. If it is only a few feet a day, it will be extremely time-consuming and labor-intensive.

"The cost is very low and the speed is very fast."

Li Ke thought about it, and wanted to find an example that could be described appropriately.

"Take Suzaku Avenue as an example. It can be completed in about 10 days and can be used in 13 days."

Li Ke quickly thought of an example, and then said to Li Shimin and others.
