Qin Mu continued slowly: "As the saying goes, water is impermanent, and the water will change according to the change of the vehicle." He said, picking up a cup with his left hand and a bowl with his right hand, "When the water is put into the cup, it will change." It’s in the shape of a cup, and it’s in the shape of a bowl when you put it in a bowl.”
"Restraint, punishment is righteousness, and its strength can restrain the weak. Therefore, wood restrains earth, earth restrains water, water restrains fire, fire restrains metal, and metal restrains wood. However, the five elements interrelate and restrain each other, and there will also be countermeasures against bullying. Relationships: wood can overcome earth, and earth is heavy and wood is broken; earth can overcome water, and water is abundant; .”
"So to control floods, we can't blindly seek containment. We have to adapt to local conditions. We block the places that need to be blocked. If we can't block them, why not break the dikes and divert canals, and focus on dredging. This will not only prevent floods, but also increase the area to be irrigated."
"Lord Qin, I don't know much about flood control, so there's only so much I can say."
heard.
Yin Qinzhou hurriedly got up and saluted.
"My son-in-law is too modest. Your words are very useful for your humble position."
"You are right. To control floods, we must adapt to local conditions. Different river sections adopt different management methods."
Qin Mu nodded slightly, "Flood control has existed since ancient times, but if you want to solve it, it can't be done in a short period of time. According to the current situation of the Tang Dynasty, flood control should be a century-old plan."
"Preparing for a rainy day is the most important thing."
Qin Mu didn't say this to Yin Qinzhou, but to Li Er.
A hundred-year plan, this is something that needs to be decided by Li Er himself.
Paused.
Li Er picked up the cup, drank it all in one gulp, and immediately said: "My son-in-law's words are indeed reasonable. Flood control has existed since ancient times, but when it happened has a very important relationship with the national conditions of various dynasties."
"Now that the frontiers of my Tang Dynasty are stable, the politics is clear, and the treasury is full, it is time to think about future generations."
"Fang Xuanling."
Fang Xuanling stood up and saluted, "My minister is here."
Li Erdao: "Record the words of the son-in-law today, collect and sort out the information on all the river sections with frequent floods in the Tang Dynasty, and see how these river sections have been managed in the past dynasties, and then adjust measures to local conditions, strengthen the dams, open It doesn’t matter whether it’s a channel, in short, we must move.”
"Don't wait until the flood has reached the door of your house before thinking of chasing and intercepting them."
Fang Xuanling responded: "Yes, Your Majesty." Immediately, he faltered again: "It's just..."
"Just what?" Li Er's eyes narrowed, and his words were indifferent.
What Yin Qinzhou and Qin Mu said today has sounded the alarm in Li Er's heart, and he will do it no matter what.
Fang Xuanling frowned slightly, and said slowly: "It's just such a big project, I'm afraid the money invested is definitely not a small amount."
The words landed.
Everyone was silent.
Fang Xuanling said that the most practical issue is money.
There is no way, a penny can't beat a hero.
Without money, everything is on paper.
"Money is not a problem." Li Er waved his hand, nonchalantly, "Go and discuss with Dai Zhou to set up a separate flood prevention and control department, and allocate money every year to prepare for river management."
"It's not terrible to encounter difficulties. The terrible thing is that we only think about difficulties and don't implement them."
"This matter cannot be delayed, and we will start preparing for it tomorrow."
As Li Er spoke, his words were convincing and resounding.
Everyone also saw Li Er's determination.
But now Li Er does have decisive courage and confidence.
Today is different from the past. As the commercial policies promulgated by the imperial court in the past few years have gradually expired, commercial tax reductions and exemptions have expired, and tax revenue has increased, so the tax increase of the Ministry of Households has long been different.
Li Er didn't feel bad about allocating a part of the money for river management.
If you have more money, you will have the confidence to speak.
Fang Xuanling bowed in response.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Xiaozhi will implement this matter tomorrow."
Yin Qinzhou was also very happy when he heard Li Er's words.
In fact, blocking is worse than sparse, and he also knows how to make the most of the situation, but money is the most important thing.
Compared to blocking the breach of the embankment.
It is not 01:30 that spends more money in dredging rivers and digging canals.
Just now Yin Qinzhou was still thinking about how to ask Li Er for money, since Li Er has already talked about this point, if he doesn't ask for money, he will be sorry for Li Er's confidence in river management.
Followed by.
Yin Qinzhou looked at Li Er, smiled, and said slowly, "Your Majesty..."
Hearing this, Li Er raised his head and looked at him. From Yin Qinzhou's eyes, he saw what Yin Qinzhou was going to say, and said immediately: "The Jiangnan area, a land of wealth, accounts for [-]% of the total grain output of the Tang Dynasty."
"But the flooding is really serious."
Immediately afterwards, he looked at Fang Xuanling.
"In this way, a part of the special funds from the flood control department will be allocated for the Jiangnan area."
Fang Xuanling hurriedly responded, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Listen to this.
Yin Qinzhou grinned from ear to ear, this trip to Chang'an has been fruitful.
Not only did they reduce or exempt farmers from taxes, but they also got a special fund for river management.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Yin Qinzhou stood up and saluted.
Li Er waved his hand, and pondered: "Qinzhou, I can do everything I can do for you, and then it's up to you."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty." Yin Qinzhou hurriedly responded, "The humble official will definitely handle this matter properly, so that the grain production in the south of the Yangtze River will be improved to a higher level."
Let's talk about it.
Everyone had eaten enough, so they went to Mangya Village to visit the various infrastructure constructions in Mangya Village.
The first thing a few people came to was the pig farm.
This is also what Yin Qinzhou is most interested in.
The pig breeding and slaughtering industry in Mangya Village resounded throughout the Tang Dynasty.
Let the people of Datang enjoy a good bite of meat at an extremely low price, the contribution of Mangya Village is indisputable.
Inside the pig farm.
Yin Qinzhou was very curious everywhere he looked.
In the Jiangnan area, there has never been a farm of such a large scale and such mature technology.
"How about Qinzhou?"
"Is the pig farm built by the son-in-law okay?"
Li Er pointed to the breeding pigs in the pigsty, his brows brimming with joy.
Today, the imperial pork used in the palace is also supplied from this pig farm, and they are all high-quality breeding pigs.
"It's not just improvisation!?" Yin Qinzhou could not close his mouth in amazement, "At first, I thought that the stench in the pig farm should be hard to find, but there is no smell here, it's so clean."
At this moment, he finally knew what the son-in-law was doing.
This attitude alone is unmatched.
Chapter 44: Looting (2/3)
Listen to Yin Qinzhou's words.
Li Er smiled lightly and said, "Qinzhou, I'm telling you, in Mangya Village, this pig farm is nothing. There are many things that overturn your perception."
"Come on, I'll take you to the greenhouse to have a look."
Hearing this, Yin Qinzhou smiled.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Wei Chen has long heard that the most magical place in Mangya Village is the greenhouse."
"I heard that there is no need to choose a season for growing fruits in a greenhouse."
"That's for sure." Li Er said to Yin Qinzhou as he walked, "The greenhouse has a constant temperature, and the temperature can be controlled at a constant temperature throughout the year, so we can plant whenever we want."
A group of people walked out.
Qin Mu, Xue Rengui and Wang Xuance walked at the end of the team.
Xue Rengui sighed and said helplessly, "Master, is this your fief after all, or is it His Majesty's back garden?"
"How I see it, His Majesty is more familiar with us than us, and he is very familiar with the introduction."
Qin Mu smiled lightly and said, "It's okay, if His Majesty is willing to introduce, let him do it, and save us talking."
For what Li Er did.
Qin Mu didn't care.
along the way.
Li Er was like a guide, introducing all kinds of Mangya Village to Yin Qinzhou, and the more he talked, the more excited he became, making Mangya Village seem to belong to him.
until late at night.
All the talents returned to the Qin residence.
At this time, Xu Gongqing, Xu Zhaolin, Zhao Shoutian, Zhao Lin, Zhao Ling, Yang Kai and Pang Yan had already arrived at the Qin residence.
Was busy with dinner.
See Li Er go back to the mansion.
Several people hurriedly gathered around.
"Zhao Lin (Zhao Ling) has met His Majesty."
"Grassmen see Your Majesty."
"The girl has seen His Majesty."
......
Everyone came forward to salute.
To them, Li Er can be said to be a great benefactor.
It was Li Er who suggested that they come to settle in Mangya Village.
Looking at a few people.
Li Er smiled from ear to ear, feeling very cordial, and also recalled all the things when he went east to Laizhou.
These people are kind and honest Datang people.
Li Er raised his hand and said: "We are all old acquaintances, there is no need to be polite, everyone get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Everyone responded one after another.
Followed by.
Li Eryi and everyone gathered around the table.
Wang Xuance and Xue Rengui joined the ranks of cooks.
Although Li Er presumptuously dominates, this is the Qin family after all, and Li Er hand-picked Xue Rengui to roast the whole lamb.
Qin Mu also followed.
Today he also wants to make some good things for everyone to taste.
"Zhaolin, have you brought what I want?" Qin Mu asked, looking at Xu Zhaolin who was busy.
"Bring it." Xu Zhaolin responded, and picked up a few bundles of leeks from the side, "Look, son-in-law, how tender and fresh these leeks are."
