President of Datang [Transmigration Book]

Li Tan asked someone to submit the urgent report, and when he opened it, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth: "Finally there is movement in An Lushan, I thought he died on the way to Fanyang."

Everyone had already started discussing songs and poems. After hearing this sentence, their attention was instantly attracted.

Li Bai asked, "How is Anlu Mountain?"

Li Tan showed them the urgent report and said: "An Lushan rebelled against the Qing emperor in name."

Du Fu frowned and said, "Your Qing side? He is a sinner, what face does he have to say Qing Jun's side?"

Li Tan said: "It is precisely because he is a sinner that he wants to clear the king's side, otherwise how can he show that he has been wronged."

Wang Wei patted the food table and said: "An Lushan can raise troops so quickly, it seems that the plot will not last for a day, such ambitious people dare to try to say anything about the Qing Dynasty's side?"

Li Tan spread his hands: "However, the common people don't know how courteous the sage was to An Lushan before. Many common people may think that this is a loyal minister."

Qing Kong couldn't help asking: "My lord, where are you from?"

Li Tan coughed lightly and said, "I'm just telling you, don't underestimate An Lushan."

"So what if he turns against him?" Chen Chong said with contempt on his face, "How can those soldiers in his hands be equal to Datang's master of hundreds of battles?"

Li Tan looked at him and asked, "Master of a hundred battles? Did you feel guilty when you said these four words?"

Chen Chong also had black lines on his face: "The Great Tang has also been fighting everywhere these years, why is he not considered a master of a hundred battles?"

"Let's forget it, this time the Turkic attack, if Zhu Xieli hadn't helped us, what chance do we have of winning?"

Chen Chong choked. Although he had great confidence in Datang, it was one thing to have confidence and another to be blind. He really didn't dare to say that they would definitely win.

But to be honest, it was a bit embarrassing, so he had no choice but to change the subject and said, "It's not really Zhu Xie's help this time, is it? It's obviously the king who will help him."

Li Tan waved his hand: "It's meaningless to worry about this."

Gongsun Chui suddenly asked with some doubts: "Mr. Qing... who is he clearing?"

If Li Linfu is still alive, then no need to ask, it must be him.

It's just that now... Although the court is not considered to be clean, there are basically no people who openly form cliques like Li Linfu and control the court.

If it had to be counted, maybe Yang Guozhong could also be counted as one, but Yang Guozhong's hatred was obviously not that great, after all, he hadn't had time to do anything outrageous when he was in power.

Li Tan was actually a little puzzled. According to this rhythm, Qing Jun's side... that can only be aimed at Gao Lishi.

After all, Gao Lishi is the one who is deeply trusted by Li Longji and has power at the same time.

It's just that Gao Lishi's reputation is much better than Li Linfu's. Although the rest of the eunuch group he promoted are not very good, these people are obviously much less harmful than those who followed Li Linfu in the court.

While being puzzled in his heart, Li Tan looked at Duan Xiushi and asked, "Are you under pressure?"

The reason why he asked this question was because the military department did not send out the emergency report casually, and sending it to them meant that they had to be ready to deploy troops at any time.

Duan Xiushi: ...

It would be a lie to say that there is no pressure. After all, the Turks have not yet retreated. Although there were signs of retreat before, it was only a sign.

What if the Turks got the news and found that the Khitan bordering them and most of the land in the northeast of the Tang Dynasty were in flames of war, and they wanted to take advantage of the fire and refused to leave?

At that time, Liangzhou may be under attack!

Li Tan looked at his expression and said with a smile: "Don't worry too much, Khitan and the others won't be able to hit Liangzhou for the time being, and An Lushan's goal will not be Liangzhou either."

Since An Lushan is playing the banner of the Qing emperor, his primary goal is to go to Chang'an.

Regardless of whether he really wants to be on the side of the emperor, or has the idea of ​​self-reliance, Chang'an is a place that must be taken down.

After all, the symbolic significance of this place is too great.

After hearing this, Duan Xiushi felt relieved, and after thinking about it carefully, he found that it was indeed the case. Whether it was Khitan or Xibu, even An Lushan, no one was willing to spend a lot of troops to attack Liangzhou, which had nothing.

However, An Lushan's actions gave Li Tan a sense of crisis. He originally thought that even if An Lushan wanted to rebel, he would go back and lie dormant for a while.

After all, the north of the Yellow River in the Tang Dynasty is basically a place where Hu people live together, and An Lushan has been operating in Fanyang for these years, and the Hu people have a high degree of recognition for him, so when he returned to Fanyang, he was basically equivalent to the Dalai Lama. Tang's Hebei region fell into the embarrassing situation that it was nominally the territory of the Tang Dynasty, but in fact it was not under the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty.

Anlu Mountain has soldiers and food, if the development of Liangzhou is slower, I am afraid that when Anlu Mountain takes down Chang'an, his place will not develop enough to accommodate many people to take refuge.

So Li Tan turned around and began to write a letter urging Yang Guozhong to send a batch of death row prisoners over, especially those with skills.

Then he turned his head and pressed Meng Zhiya to quickly build the college and the water system.

Meng Zhiya really wanted to die. In the past, as a Mohist child, he often felt that his life was not at the right time.

After all, he has learned a lot of skills, and it turns out that he usually does it with little gadgets.

However, since he talked with Li Tan, all the projects he has done are indeed big projects, but such a [-]-hour state makes people collapse every minute.

Li Tan assured him: "I know you've been very tired recently, don't worry, as long as the water system is almost built, I mean around the state capital, the remote places are naturally not counted, then you must have a vacation."

Meng Zhiya glanced at him expressionlessly and said, "Don't think I don't know, you also re-planned a city, which is on the land next to the academy!"

Li Tan was a little embarrassed at once, it was really on the agenda to do this.

When the college was first designed, Li Tan had an idea. He directly designed the college as the center of the entire city. All qualified students would study here, and the outside is the city where ordinary people live.

I don't know if the learning atmosphere in the whole city will become very strong after many years of construction like this?

Just like Vienna, the capital of music.

But this is just a preliminary idea, whether it can be done or not will be discussed with Meng Zhiya.

After being exposed by Meng Zhiya, Li Tan had no choice but to say: "It's not that there is no state capital now, you can let the matter of building the city be put aside for a while, and I will definitely give you a vacation at that time!"

Meng Zhiya didn't say anything more, he didn't believe in holidays at all.

Like in such a flexible holiday, maybe some new problems will arise at that time, and the holiday will be ruined directly.

After appeasing Meng Zhiya, Li Tan planned to go back to his study and write a letter to Concubine Yang Gui, asking her to persuade Li Longji not to go to Mawei Station, but to come directly to Liangzhou if she could.

He felt that Concubine Yang Gui should be willing. After all, she went to Mawei Station, and she didn't know if she would still become the mischievous concubine that the soldiers demanded to kill.

But if you come to Liangzhou, at least this is Li Tan's territory, and he also has soldiers in his hands, Yang Guifei should not be executed so easily.

Li Tan didn't have any psychological burden to protect Concubine Yang's life.

Since he came here, although he and Concubine Yang often had disagreements and often fooled Concubine Yang, it was undeniable that the other party had helped him.

Li Tan is a person who knows how to repay his kindness, so he should reciprocate repayment.

Just when he was about to go to the study to write a letter, he suddenly remembered something, turned his head and pretended not to care, and said to Wang Wei: "I have heard that Wang Shilang is both excellent in calligraphy and painting, and he is also excellent in poetry, but I don't know if there is any. Is it an honor to invite him to teach the students?"

Wang Wei was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and asked with a blank face, "Why?"

His elder brother is Wang Wei, and Wang Wei seems to have a bright future as Minister of the Ministry of Officials now, and the saint seems to like him quite a lot, why bother to travel so far to become a teacher?

When Li Tan heard him ask this question, he was at a loss for words for a while.

He couldn't tell Wang Wei that the fundamental reason for letting Wang Wei come was that when An Lushan attacked Chang'an, Wang Wei couldn't run away, and then under the oppression of An Lushan, he had to accept Anlushan's offer. appoint.

Of course, no one knows whether it is really oppressive or unavoidable, but this matter still has a great impact on him.

When Datang regained Chang'an, Wang Wei used his own merits in exchange for Wang Wei's life. Although Wang Wei was still an official to Youcheng later, he was not so trusted after all.

Li Tan suddenly remembered this matter and felt that Wang Wei was a bit pity, so he wanted to give him a chance not to face difficult choices.

As for why Wang Wei received a fake job, and why he didn't die in the city when the city was destroyed... Li Tan always felt that there should be something hidden in it.

After all, Wang Wei's statement was not obvious, even if he made contributions in the Anshi Rebellion, but in the face of Wang Wei's almost treasonous charges, I'm afraid it would not be enough.

However, at that time, the imperial court just let Wang Wei go. Maybe it was because the other party was a member of the Wang family, but it was more likely that Wang Wei also provided a lot of information to Datang when he accepted the fake job.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain why such a person who exchanged his younger brother's merits for a chance to survive could still sit on the position of prime minister.

Of course, all these guesses are based on Li Tan's trust in the family.

Although aristocratic families sometimes have no integrity, and in troubled times, it is common for children of one family to serve multiple regimes at the same time, but An Lushan is different, he is a barbarian.

On top of the great rights and wrongs of the nation, the aristocratic family can still be clear.

But now that Wang Wei asked this question, he also felt that the reason was too abrupt, so he smiled and said: "It's nothing, I just heard that Wang Shilang once yearned for the scenery of the desert, and now you are here, if he has time, come and have a look, by the way Two classes are also good."

After Li Tan finished speaking, he left. After all, if he continued to stay, he still didn't know what nonsense he was going to make.

In fact, Wang Wei was also confused, he knew a little bit about his elder brother, Wang Wei likes mountains, rivers and countryside, with boundless beauty, in the words of later generations, he is small and fresh.

Such a person may yearn for Jiangnan, but Damo...?

For a moment, Wang Wei was full of question marks, but soon he put this matter behind him, after all, there are too many things that he needs to do now.

After Li Tan returned to his study, he picked up a pen and wrote a letter to Concubine Yang Gui, but while writing, he suddenly couldn't continue writing.

Li Longji can run, so can Concubine Yang Gui, and all high-ranking officials and marquises can leave there, but what about ordinary people?

Even the palace people may be inseparable.

Because Wang Wei just sighed, Li Tan couldn't help but think of Wang Wei's "Ningbi Pool". The protagonist in this poem is not the actor who stayed in the palace, but because he didn't want to make fun of Anlu Mountain And was killed.

Li Tan sighed, feeling a little depressed, and at the same time wrote a letter to He Zhizhang, asking the old man to come over as soon as possible.

As for Langhuan Academy, as long as An Lushan is not insane, the students and books there should not be touched.

Li Tan sent out the letter the next day, and just in time received a letter from Concubine Yang, and only then did he know that he was the king that An Lushan wanted to clear this time.

Li Tan's face was full of question marks. He didn't form a party, and he didn't control the government. What kind of Qing Dynasty is he?

However, the life of the royal family or the life of the aristocrats is too far away from the common people. An Lushan needed a reason, so he began to preach that Li Tan had learned some alchemy from someone, and began to refine elixir in Chang'an, claiming that it could bring the dead back to life. , to bluff and deceive.

Even the saint was deceived by him and loved him very much.

Then there are all kinds of trumped-up charges, such as Li Tan being domineering, and Li Tan killing Li Linfu because of his enmity with Li Linfu.

When everyone heard about this, they couldn't laugh or cry. Li Bai snorted coldly and said, "Li Linfu's death is more than justified. What's more, his illness and death from the beginning to the end has nothing to do with the king. It is the king who saved him once regardless of the past. The second time, the king I was almost assassinated and died, how did you kill him?"

Li Tan looked at the faces of everyone filled with righteous indignation, and thought that although An Lushan had a big idea this time, he had to say that he had hit the point.

Wang Wei didn't know what he was thinking, but he said worriedly: "Anlu Mountain is now spreading these things wantonly, and the people are ignorant, so I'm afraid they have to believe it. The king's reputation..."

Li Tan didn't care about his reputation, anyway, he left it to future generations to comment on, and after thousands of years, good can become bad, and bad can become good.

The most classic is probably the incident of the first emperor burning books and burying Confucianism. How long did this make the first emperor scolded.

Gongsun Chui said: "Sages...wouldn't allow the king to be so slandered?"

According to the degree of li tan's favor, it shouldn't be so, right?

Li Tan waved his hand and said, "It's hard to explain this kind of thing for a while when you make a rumor, and it's hard to explain it. What's more, An Lushan must publicize it in order to prove himself."

Du Fu was a little helpless at the side: "Your Majesty, are you not in a hurry?"

After they heard this, they were all very angry. On the contrary, Li Tan, the protagonist, looked very cold, making one wonder if he was the one being scolded!

Li Tan smiled and turned to Gongsun Chui and said, "Report the news to Beijing, and let the rumors ferment the rest."

After all, An Lushan described him as useless before, and now this good report is used to slap him in the face-how could a person who is really useless even beat the Turks away in Liangzhou?

Not to mention that there are generals in the area, before Duan Xiushi came here, Liangzhou would be plundered twice a year, once before winter, and once in spring when it was slack.

Later, even if Duan Xiushi came, it was just a guarantee that he would only be robbed once a year.

Now at this time of internal and external troubles, Li Tan believes that this good news can bring confidence to the imperial court.

Li Bai and the others saw that Li Tan had probably thought about it long ago, so they didn't worry about anything at all, anyway... worrying probably was useless.

Just as Li Tan thought, the Turkic army that was about to retreat seemed to have other ideas, but only part of it was withdrawn, leaving about 1 horses, while the other 1 horses seemed to have withdrawn.

Li Tan looked at the 1 horses, and seriously thought about whether to grab it again.

Li Bai on the side was eager to try, he found that it was very enjoyable to go out with Li Tan, it was really "killing one person in ten steps", and he didn't have to worry about his own safety.

Both Gongsun Chui and Meng Zhiya opposed it desperately. They were afraid of Li Tan. On the one hand, they were worried that Li Tan would be in danger if he went out. Is it a joke to entrust the matter to the two of them without even having enough manpower?

In the end, Li Tan had no choice but to stay and coordinate various aspects of work. Of course, the most important thing is to recruit people!

He made an estimate with Gongsun Chui, and felt that there was a huge talent gap, and now even the state capital was full of carrots and pits, barely able to operate, no amount of talent would be gone.

Of course, these are not bad, and mental workers are actually easy to find, as long as Li Tan's requirements are not particularly high, but where do the migrant workers for Jiancheng come from?

Gongsun Chui said worriedly: "There are too few people in Liangzhou, and there are often not many people in the corvee collection every year."

Li Tan was a little surprised: "No one? It shouldn't be. Liangzhou is still a state without people."

Upper, middle and lower prefectures are counted by the number of households, and Liangzhou is considered a lower prefecture, but now the population of Datang is growing. When Dasuo was read before, the data presented by the Ministry of Households is that there are now nearly 6000 million people and more than 900 million Ten thousand households, Xiazhou's standard has changed from less than 12 households to less than [-] households, and now Liangzhou has about [-] households, and the calculated population is about [-].

In this age when young and old are required to serve in corvée, how could there be no recruits?

Gongsun Chui said: "I looked at the past materials and found that many people killed themselves in order to escape corvee."

Li Tan was shocked: "Self-harm?"

Gongsun Chui sighed: "It's not just Liangzhou, it's basically the same in every state."

Li Tan was silent for a while. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, people with disabilities do not need to serve corvee, but they must be severely disabled. After these people self-harm to escape corvee, they will be disabled for the rest of their lives.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand that today's corvee is unpaid labor, and under the high pressure of the government, the work is still very hard, so naturally no one wants it.

If you ask Li Tan to say that corvee service should be paid, what will people eat if they don’t get paid?Just giving some rations when working, and often deducting it, is definitely not enough.

However, Datang's policy is like this now, even if Li Tan is in charge of a state, it is impossible to change the state's policy.

He thought for a while and decided to change the method, and said directly: "Then there will be no corvee!"

Gongsun Chui looked at him blankly, if corvee was not conscripted, where did people come from?

Li Tan turned his head and went to Meng Zhiya and said, "You take Tang Tang to set up a craftsman's class and let him be the shopkeeper."

Meng Zhiya was a little surprised: "Tang Tang is here?"

Li Tan nodded. He doesn't have many people who can use him now, and judging from the recent entry and exit of master and apprentice values, it seems that he can't make ends meet. top.

Although Tang Tang is not very old, he is already able to start a family in his teens in this era. He is already thirteen this year, and his life of licking blood all year round makes him look more mature than his peers. The evil spirit should be able to calm down the scene.

Of course, Tang Tang is actually a shopkeeper in name, but in reality, this workshop must be controlled by Li Tan and Meng Zhiya.

Meng Zhiya didn't understand what Li Tan wanted to do, so he asked in detail.

After all, the existence of craftsmen began to flourish in the Ming Dynasty. These days, craftsmen are basically controlled by the government, and their household registrations are all in the craftsman's household. How many things they do every year are assigned by the government.

Li Tan gave Meng Zhiya a general introduction to the construction companies of later generations, but they definitely don't need so many things, after all, the craftsman class has just been established, and it is impossible to want to have all of them.

Probably more similar to the existence of contractors in later generations.

Meng Zhiya accepted it well, he immediately understood Li Tan's meaning: "You want to hire people to build the city?"

Li Tan nodded, Meng Zhiya was a little worried: "How much money does it cost to hire someone?"

The city planned by Li Tan is not small, and the location can be regarded as the throat of the East and the West. Strictly speaking, it is actually more suitable for a trade transit city than Liangzhou Prefecture. The only disadvantage there is...the lack of water and grass.

So people can only choose to take a detour, or they will die halfway without supplies.

Of course, this difficulty is not a problem here for Li Tan, so he planned a very huge city, just to prepare for the frequent trade between the East and the West in the future.

Li Tan was very calm: "I have money, I have it!"

Meng Zhiya: ...

He felt that it was necessary to make a rough budget for Li Tan, and let him know how impossible it is to build a city by himself!

The small city is alright, to build such a big city from the very beginning, even bigger than Chang'an, it's just like dying!

The most important thing is that there is also the academy, the cost of the academy is not lower than that of the city, and he dare not calculate how much it will cost.

Li Tan said: "Don't believe me, just wait and see."

Li Tan didn't talk nonsense with him, and turned around to find Gongsun Chui, asking him to find the largest local auction house, and he was going to hold a special auction!

As for the items in the auction - the system store will come in handy at this time.

Zhiyi looked at Li Tan browsing the mall and couldn't help but asked, "Aren't you short of master-apprentice value? You still want to exchange master-apprentice value for money?"

Li Tan said: "You have to know that the exchange of master and apprentice for money is also very particular."

Before Zhi Yi asked, he saw Li Tan jumping out with a bunch of pendants, and most of these pendants were without special effects. The biggest feature was...there were glass or colored glaze on them?

Li Tan put these pendants in the box he prepared earlier and said: "High-quality colored glaze is very rare these days, but in the system store, these things with no function are very cheap, and the workmanship is exquisite. Nothing could be better."

In fact, he had this idea before in Chang'an, but at that time Li Longji and Concubine Yang gave him some rewards from time to time, and the money in his hands was basically inexhaustible.

Of course, apart from a Langhuan Academy, he basically had nothing to spend money on.

Unlike now, it is not easy for Li Longji and Concubine Yang to support him with money, and there are many places to spend money, so he has to use it to cash out.

Zhiyi watched Li Tan put aside some items full of Western Region style, and suddenly realized: "Are you planning to sell these items more expensive?"

Li Tan nodded: "Things are rare and expensive, and there are not many such objects even here."

It's just that he didn't know how much he could sell in the end. This time he was testing the waters for the time being. If the sales were good, then he would continue next time. Anyway, in those years, the government released a lot of pendants for wool.

Putting the money issue aside for the time being, what Li Tan needs now is a large number of talents of all kinds. After thinking about it, he wrote a letter to He Zhizhang, asking him to help him promote it. By the way, he sent the water system map here, trying to Fooled some passionate young people to come to build the great rivers and mountains of the motherland.

Coincidentally, just after he sent out this letter, the replies written by Concubine Yang Guifei and He Zhizhang also arrived.

After Li Tan opened the letter and read it once, he sighed. Both Yang Guifei and He Zhizhang refused to leave.

Concubine Yang felt that now that An Lushan was forced to raise troops 11 years in advance, the time for him to accumulate strength was greatly shortened, and it might not be so easy to fight Chang'an.

Li Tanxin said that in the original plot, An Lushan had to raise troops early because of Concubine Yang's obstruction. Although he did not advance so many years like now, he still fought in Chang'an in the end. For him, early risers and late risers are probably the difference in the length of time it takes to reach Chang'an.

It's just that he can't tell about this matter, after all, knowing too many details can easily arouse others' suspicion. Of course, the most important thing is that he still doesn't trust Concubine Yang, and he is always worried that Concubine Yang will accidentally tell Yang Guozhong.

Yang Guozhong...then the involvement would be serious, he would definitely tell his family, and if the Yang family dispersed, the whole of Chang'an would be panicked, fearing that they would be defeated before the battle.

Or maybe before An Lushan hit Chang'an, he was dragged back to Chang'an and locked up because of his rumors to confuse the crowd. Isn't this not worth the candle?

He Zhizhang's letter had the same meaning as Concubine Yang Guifei, both of whom felt that An Lushan did not have the ability to reach Chang'an.

But what he mainly said was not this, but that he told Li Tan that he had agreed to a group of students to come to Li Tan.

Without exception, these students are somewhat capable, but their luck in the imperial examinations is not very good, and they have been failing.

They wanted to fill in the post but didn't know how long they would have to wait. Later, when they saw that Li Tan did not take the usual path and directly gave Gongsun Chui, a little-known person, the position of long history, their thoughts suddenly became active.

I think it's better to go to Liangzhou to join King Ning. Although the conditions in Liangzhou are a bit more difficult, I heard that King Ning is short of people.

Moreover, there is a rule in the Tang Dynasty that the state where the prince is the governor, whether it is Shangzhou, Zhongzhou or Xiazhou, all policies will be treated according to the treatment of the upper state. After the prince ends his term and is no longer here as the governor, this state will Restore the original treatment.

In other words, although Liangzhou is now a lower state, the treatment is given according to the upper state. This treatment is reflected in various aspects, such as the number of officials, the number of recommended officials, and even the number of people who enter Guozixue. There were several more before.

This kind of treatment is in all aspects. They can't compete in Chang'an, so it is good to come to Liangzhou to save the country by taking a curve.

It is no different from the immigration of the college entrance examination in later generations.

There are also some people who just want to follow Li Tan, and feel that as long as they follow Li Tan, their future will not be bad. After all, Li Tan will not stay in Liangzhou for a long time. If you go to a wealthy state capital, they will naturally be promoted at that time.

Regarding these people's thoughts, He Zhizhang was worried that Li Tan would not think so much, so he analyzed them all, and told him that these people could be used, but how to use them was up to Li Tan himself.

He Zhizhang didn't talk too much. In terms of employing people, Li Tan needs to experience it himself. Anyway, even if he looks wrong, he can afford to lose.

Li Tan held a stack of thick letter paper written by He Zhizhang, and was very moved.

He Zhizhang is simply his life mentor!

He has read enough books, but has too little practice, and things like how to manage talents and how to use talents that require experience, he has no brains. He has always been let him do what he is good at. .

It's just that he was faced with relatively simple personnel affairs in the past. The palace was arranged by the court, and the Zuo Jinwu Guard was also arranged by the court.

Now he needs to do all the initial creation in Liangzhou by himself, and he is really a bit battered.

He Zhizhang's letter further strengthened Li Tan's idea that he must be brought here. Originally, in real history, He Zhizhang had already passed away when the Anshi Rebellion happened, so he was not tortured.

Now...he is old, if he doesn't come here sooner, and wait for An Lushan to call before he rushes away, how can his old bones hold up?

Li Tan can indeed save people, but he can't make He Zhizhang rejuvenate!

He thought for a while and decided to speak out what he knew in an analytical tone, persuaded He Zhizhang to come over, and told him at the same time that the academy in Liangzhou was about to open, why don't you come over and write an inscription?

When Langhuan Academy opened last time, He Zhizhang was eager to try to write an inscription, but Li Tan squeezed the old man out of the way for the sake of master and apprentice, and inscribed it himself.

He Zhizhang saw that his writing was indeed good, so he could only give up with regret. This time Li Tan originally wanted to write the inscription himself, but for the safety of He Zhizhang's life, he reluctantly let it out.

It is estimated that he can do it by tricking the old gentleman with an inscription from the academy.

After the letter was sent out, Li Tan really welcomed a group of students within two days. There were about 30 to [-] students in this group, and they happened to be in time for the auction when they came.

Then he was taken by Li Tan to experience the atmosphere of the auction, and by the way, watched the local tyrants.

When they saw so many glazed products that they had never seen before, and they could not even see any craftsmanship, their eyes were straightened, and they had no idea where these things came from.

And those glazed products were sold at sky-high prices one by one, and the transactions cost tens of thousands of guan. In this era when the annual tax revenue is only 2000 million guan, it is simply dumbfounding.

However, what made them even more dumbfounded was that after the auction, they discovered that these items belonged to His Royal Highness King Ning!

After experiencing the impact of money, Li Tan took them to look at the planning map of the new academy and city, as well as a planning map of the whole state's water system.

Now that the central fountain of the water system has been established, the scene of dozens of Qinglianyu waterfalls spraying water together is still very spectacular.

After the students have gone through this bombing, even if the place they live is still covered with dust, even if they go out and see only low-rise houses, it still can't stop their ambitions.

Isn't the purpose of learning literary and martial arts and selling goods to the emperor's family to prove the meaning of his existence?

Now that this meaning has been realized, they can even think that if this huge city is built, if such a developed water system can really be formed in the entire Liangzhou, then after thousands of years, they will all be famous in history. !

The students were very excited, and it was meaningless for Li Tan to arrange them to do some grassroots work.

Of course, this is mainly because they also need to familiarize themselves with the local cultural environment.

Among them is a student who is proficient in the law, basically the kind that if you ask him what is the situation, he can not only explain it clearly, but even tell the first few pages of the law book.

Compared to someone like Li Tan who occasionally needs to cheat, this is the real top student.

After being assigned to work, Xueba raised a new question when he took office: "Your Highness's construction of the city is actually an act of benefiting the country and the people, but why have I never seen the imperial court's decree? And what is the money spent on building the city?" Is it from His Royal Highness?"

Li Tan built the city on the land of the Tang Dynasty, so the construction of the city must be approved by the imperial court, and the imperial court agrees. The most important thing is that this is a national building, so it should be paid by the imperial court, but Li Tan paid for it out of his own pocket— — This student is very disturbed, why does it seem that His Highness is going to stockpile food and rebel?

After Li Tan asked Xueba, he suddenly realized that his behavior seemed to be easily misunderstood, so he thought for a while and said: "This matter is indeed selfish, and you also know that things like Qinglianyu Waterfall are very precious. , there are only a few in the whole world, and now they are used by me to build the whole state's water system. What I am worried about is that if someone in the court knows about this thing, then it will only become a plaything in the court, and not Just play its role.”

Xueba asked the question in front of everyone, and everyone had doubts about it before. After listening to Li Tan's explanation, they immediately understood what he meant, and they were a little confused for a while and said, "However, His Highness behaved like this. If the imperial court finds out, I'm afraid they will be punished."

Regardless of whether you have really rebelled or not, but if you have this tendency, you must be arrested first. For the crime of treason, even the prince can't escape the fate of being imprisoned first and then investigated.

Li Tan said very righteously: "I know that this trip will be extremely difficult, but for the sake of the people of Liangzhou, why not take a risk? What's more, the saint is wise, and naturally he will not believe that I will plot against you."

The students were so moved that they immediately got excited and clamored to build Xinliangzhou.

Li Tan was smiling, sweating in his heart. He didn't think about it so much before. The main reason why he didn't report it to the court was that the court would soon be overwhelmed. At this time, he would definitely not agree to spend a lot of money to build the city. Even if Li Tan pays for it himself, it won't work!

Anyway, when An Lushan came back, the entire imperial court would enter a semi-paralyzed state, unable to take care of other things except fighting, so why did he make a report, do it yourself!

Just when he finally limped these students, Wang Wei hurried over and said, "Your Majesty, the Yin family sent invitations. Five days later, it will be the birthday banquet of the head of the Yin family, Yin Fang. Would you like to go?"

Li Tan took the exquisite invitation and sneered twice: "Finally can't sit still?"
