"Official land can't be sold easily. When I first came to Luoyang, I rented a piece of land in the mountains nearby."
Li Yi talked about the past. He had bribed the officials first.
"Then …" Li Longji remembered this.
He was at a loss. Could it be that you started it, and that's why the officials of Henan Province took the opportunity to act?
"I paid extra. The land was cheap, and I returned it to the people. My goal was to quickly deploy the troops.
They were people who did things. After they received the money, they were very cooperative. They were good officials.
Old Bi knew about it and came to me. I agreed to give him dental implants. "
Li Yi removed himself from the situation. What I did was illegal. I was more flexible.
"If that's the case, shouldn't they be arrested?" Li Longji didn't care about the outcome. You were bribing them. Now that they were following the prescription, would you be judged?
"They didn't even enter the money into their accounts. I went through the official channels. I gave them benefits. They had the money, but the land they rented increased."
Li Yi pointed out the key point. If you didn't go through the official channels, you would be breaking the law.
Li Longji pondered for a moment, "Daoji …"
"How would Old Zhang know? He can't see for himself which land belongs to the government and which belongs to the people.
Moreover, the people who used the land didn't cut down trees, dig ponds, destroy mulberry trees, or grow crops.
The land was relatively intact. To be honest, they only dug a few holes for compost. "
Li Yi, who understood the situation, laughed. You haven't seen it before, right? Using the land wasn't enough.
Li Longji was confused. Rented land …
"What do they use it for?" He asked.
"We have the same place in Zhuangzi. It's on the mountains. Third Brother, you even praised the chicken for being delicious and fragrant. "Li Yi pointed to the northwest.
"They use it to raise pigs, chickens, and frogs?"
Li Longji suddenly understood. Indeed, they didn't touch other things. They just needed a place.
"They don't know how to raise frogs. After I came over, everyone raised pigs and poultry. It was faster to raise them manually.
You need a place to raise everything. The newspaper said that you can't raise hundreds of chickens in cages. It's easy for them to fall sick and die.
This was how the local families rented the land. The pig dung was gathered and composted.
When the chicken dung enters the forest, the rain will fertilize the forest. It can be considered helping the forest. "
Li Yi told the truth. Otherwise, how could he tell the other party that he was surrendering?
If they handed over the money they had embezzled, they would be fined extra. Those who had saved a lot of money through bribery would have to pay extra.
"Sigh!" Li Longji sighed and took a sip of wine. "You're stuffing your own pockets."
"En! If I were them, I would be able to earn more money on my own. I would be able to earn income from the imperial court and not break the law. I would even be commended. They made a mistake. "
Li Yi looked like he was feeling sorry for the others. He didn't want to pursue this matter.
Why did he take the initiative to confess? The other party clearly knew that the crime wasn't serious.
Thieves could turn themselves in and hand over their gains. If they were given a light sentence, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue was prepared to accept the punishment and pay the fine.
"Li Yi, what should we do?" Princess True Jade, who had been silent all this while, asked anxiously.
"I'll write a letter saying that official land is not for hiring mulberry silkworms. It can be used for other purposes. The people are ignorant and don't dare to go. As a parishioner, I will personally pay for official land and raise livestock. The people will have a smooth life. "
Li Yi said according to the letter that there was a new method of land use. He was afraid that the people wouldn't dare. He would spend his own money first and then everyone would be fine.
When the time came, who didn't know how to raise things themselves? Others would be responsible for raising them and selling them for money. They wouldn't even have to pay for their own food.
The yamen would only take a small amount of money. It was considered an additional economic growth point and a project that benefited the people.
Look, I'm earning more money. The people aren't at a disadvantage. There's also revenue. Give me a promotion.
Princess True Jade was stupefied when she heard this. How could earning money be so dignified and righteous?
She noted it down and asked on behalf of Ron. Later, she would write to him. How could one learn such skills from reading books?
Princess Golden Immortal's eyes turned. "If you earn money yourself, how will the other officials deal with it?"
"They can't eat it all by themselves. They have to bring along the Henan Prefectural Magistrate.
Look at how much official land there is and give the order that the Henan Prefectural Magistrate must choose a piece of land and pay for it themselves.
They will be responsible for different areas according to their official positions and ranks. They will be responsible for promoting it to the people.
My position is small and I'm in charge of a thousand mu. Zhang Shuo's position is big and he's in charge of at least ten thousand mu.
He's a role model. He will lead the Prefectural Magistrate and do his best for the welfare of the people until his death. "
Li Yi shook his head and waved his hand. He couldn't take the benefits alone. Otherwise, he would definitely get into trouble.
"Yes, yes, yes, yes." Princess True Jade agreed and noted it down.
Li Longji: "…"
He suddenly reached out and rubbed Li Yi's head. He hadn't rubbed it in a long time.
Li Yi didn't react. He picked up a snail and ate it.
The people eating at the nearby tables all stopped and looked at Li Yi.
They had heard everything from beginning to end. When Li Yi mentioned Old Bi Goo, Bi Goo even recalled it.
Zhang Shuo was grateful that he didn't keep an eye on him. Li Yi spoke up for him. How did he get involved in using his status to make money?
"How should we deal with this matter?" Li Longji learned it and returned to reality.
"The country has its laws. I'm just a scattered official. I don't care." Li Yi removed himself from the matter again.
"Xiao Yi, you're the Disposal Commissioner of the Tang dynasty." Song Jing reminded. You want to run away at such a critical moment?
"No, I resigned." Li Yi spread his hands.
"When did you resign?" Su Yi asked doubtfully.
"I just resigned." Li Yi answered matter-of-factly.
"Brother Yi is right." Li Longji helped. Why did they have to look for Brother Yi for everything?
Everyone turned back to drink. They couldn't live anymore.
You hide it from us when you take action, but we're responsible for the aftermath?
"I wonder what's going on outside?" Li Longji looked at the night sky.
…
Tonight, Luoyang Palace was sleepless. Nightlife had stopped. Everyone didn't sleep but hid behind doors and windows to listen.
The lights outside the windows were slightly reassuring. Luoyang Palace's troops were assigned to the Sixteenth Guard, each with one guard.
This showed that they were valued and prevented them from mutiny.
They didn't understand the situation. If they were cajoled and instigated by the general, they could be easily slaughtered.
Mutiny was a major event. Heavy machine guns might appear.
The local soldiers were scattered. Whoever wanted to cause trouble couldn't be gathered.
The Non-commissioned Officer helped carry the lamps. They were willing to look at kerosene lamps. There were too few in Luoyang.
This kind of kerosene lamp could adjust the size of the flame through the length of the wick, but it couldn't be pumped.
If it could be pumped, it could be used for hot air balloons and pressurized blowtorches.
"How long does a kerosene lamp burn when it's filled with oil?" a Luoyang soldier asked the Sixteenth Guard, who had been communicating with the children's parents.
"With such a big flame, there's a lot of space to store oil until daybreak.
The small ones the students use for their studies start lighting when it's dark. They'll stop lighting at midnight. Tell them to go to sleep.
Since the kerosene lamps in Chang 'an aren't carried, they'll be bigger and burn through the night. "
The Sixteenth Guard had nothing to do, so they chatted. Otherwise, they would be sleepy.
"Does it burn a lot of money in one night?" The local soldiers felt that it was a waste.
"The people of Chang 'an sleep soundly. They don't get sick. They work to earn money to buy things. The taxes they pay are enough for the kerosene lamps."
The Sixteenth Guard explained from another angle. When the people saw the hazy light outside the window, not only would they not be unable to sleep, they would sleep even more soundly.
