According to the news, all the students who did not pass the imperial examinations but were sent to the villages as auxiliary officials were very tenacious.
They made a lot of jokes.
For example, they caught insects to feed the geese, and the geese chased after them.
For example, they chopped up pigweed but did not cook it. Instead, they threw it into the pigsty, and the pigs had a hard time eating it.
For example, they painted the roofs of the villagers with tung oil. They said it was waterproof, but in the end, they stomped holes in the villagers' houses.
More importantly, even a few barrels of tung oil could not make two houses.
The students worked very hard. Now, they understood that the people's lives were not a joke.
It was different from what they learned from books. What they wanted to do depended on the situation.
Of course, it was nonsense to compare the students with Shan Wuwei.
Shan Wuwei was 80 years old. He had a rich life experience and had traveled extensively.
Li Yi felt that he did not have a system. When facing Shan Wuwei, he could only rely on his skills to win.
The ancient people were very powerful. For example, they could calculate solar eclipses, lunar eclipses, and pi.
He was a graduate student and doctoral student at that time. When he was asked to calculate solar eclipses, he did not have any information. Could he calculate it?
He asked them what was suitable for the 24 solar terms. How to plant it? Could they answer?
In ancient times, the county officials would tell the people what to plant at what time. If they did not have this ability, they were not good county officials.
There was also the Ministry of Personnel's decision to exempt those who passed the imperial examinations. They would be given a case to judge according to the laws of the Tang dynasty.
Those who passed the imperial examinations would be able to answer all the questions.
"Brother Yi, your method is very useful. These people entered the village, and some of them are very outstanding. They know everything. The imperial court is prepared to put them in important positions."
Li Longji was very happy when he talked about this. He had found talents.
There were many reasons why they did not pass the imperial examinations. When they entered the village to help the people, their abilities were reflected.
The imperial court needed these people. If they were released, they would be able to lead the people to live a good life. At the same time, they would carry out the imperial court's orders.
Some people brought the people to raise insects and chickens. Now, they could lay eggs. The chickens that ate insects laid more eggs. They also fed the chickens with mussel powder.
These students knew the way the Li Family Zhuangzi operated. They immediately used it for the people.
There were also those who mediated disputes between neighbors. They organized a village to use the water network as a sewage drain.
He organized a large number of people to rent flour milling tools, and then shipped them to Chang 'an for free by ship to be sold, and then bought the wheat back to be processed.
He contacted the imperial physicians in Chang 'an to take a boat to the village to treat everyone. It was cheaper to buy medicine together.
They would find an experienced hunter and go into the mountains to hunt together. They would bring back the game to make wax meat for the winter.
So what if he couldn't pass the imperial examinations?
Li Longji did not care about what he was going to get into. Didn't he see that Brother Yi was not going to take the exam? Could it be that Brother Yi was not capable enough?
Li Longji raised his wine cup at the thought that he could only use it in the Tang dynasty. "Brother Yi, drink up."
Li Yi drank a glass of wine with him and said, "Third Brother, we can't neglect the northern part of Hebei Province. We must keep up with the trade. Through trade, we can understand and break the monopoly of the Bohai Sea."
Li Yi mentioned the drawbacks of the Tang dynasty. The Tang dynasty made people officials, and after that, the place seemed to belong to the Tang dynasty.
In fact, it was not the case at all. The Tang dynasty was strong, and those places were obedient. If the Tang dynasty made a slight mistake, those places would directly rebel.
To put it nicely, it was called controlling barbarians with barbarians. To put it bluntly, it was called the Tang dynasty was not capable.
"Seven, seven!" As soon as Li Yi finished speaking, the little girl grabbed a peeled grape with her small hands and stuffed it into his mouth.
The little fellow's big eyes were full of expectation.
Li Yi did not care whether it was hygienic or not. He opened his mouth and ate it.
"Hahahaha …" The little fellow clapped her hands happily and laughed.
Then she picked up a grape from the ground, the kind that had been peeled, and wanted to give it to someone else.
Li Yi: "…"
"Li Lang, the grape he gave you just now did not fall on the ground." Princess Yongmu said kindly.
"Wen Tian, how many bean worms did you find in your lowland?"
Li Yi did not care whether the grapes fell on the ground or not. He said to Princess Yongmu.
Princess Yongmu put down her chopsticks: "There are not many in the bean field. I found some bean worms from the grape seedlings and other places. I gave some to you. There are enough left to raise moths next year."
Speaking of this, Princess Yongmu was very happy.
The people of the capital government ate the worms. When the Li Family Zhuangzi said they could eat them, they really ate them. After eating, they found that the worms tasted good, similar to the taste of chicken.
Then they looked around for bean worms. People who had planted a lot of grapes found bean worms. They sold them for 15 yuan per catty, and people still bought them.
They bought them and prepared to raise them in the field. Then, more worms would be produced in the next year.
15 yuan per catty, and 100 catties of worms could be produced in one mu of land. Wasn't that 1,500 yuan?
Ten catties of beans were not worth 1,500 yuan. The price of grain was high two years ago, but this year, the price of grain suddenly fell.
"Raise them well. If you don't understand, ask me. Bean worms should be more expensive than mutton because they have more protein than mutton of the same weight. "
Li Yi looked at it from another perspective. Mutton was actually more delicious than bean worms.
Mutton could be made into various dishes, but bean worms could not.
The real good thing was the cocoon, especially the tussah silkworm's cocoon.
For the people, protein and fat intake were the most important.
For example, when dieting, it was said to reduce fat, but in reality, the first thing to be reduced was protein, followed by fat.
When dieting, it was necessary to supplement protein and not eat too much fat.
"Yes, yes!" Princess Yongmu smiled and nodded: "Li Lang, I don't want to plant winter wheat in the winter. I want to build a shed. Help me take a look."
"How much?" Li Yi frowned. What was there to see in a shed? He had already taught her the skills.
"How much?" Princess Yongmu asked Xiao Lan.
"Only 100 mu." Xiao Lan knew.
"Okay!" Li Yi gritted his teeth and agreed. Otherwise, what else could he do?
Thus, everyone ate happily and prepared to look at the moon at night.
This included nearly 12,000 captives from the southwest. They had done a lot of work this year. On the 15th of August, they ate mooncakes.
The mooncakes they ate were filled with meat floss as a reward.
There were also grapes and wine.
Of course, there were no mooncakes at the end. There was only wheat rice cooked with chaff and salted vegetables.
A team of 1,000 people, watching others eat mooncakes.
"In a few days, it will be the 9th Double Ninth Festival. There will be good things. Everyone must work hard."
The Khitan captive who was in charge of them spoke in the language of the southwest barbarians. He then changed it to the language of the Tang dynasty.
"We apply for work." The captain who did not eat mooncakes stood up and shouted.
He was under the most pressure. He was about to be selected.
"Okay, there is work to do." The Khitan captive agreed. As for what work there was, he did not know. He had to ask Li Yi.
Li Yi was also talking about work: "It is very tiring to make linoleum paper. You also have to smell it. If you smell it too much, you will get sick easily. It is also not good to wear masks. I am preparing to let the captives do it.
Before it snows, we need to perfect the processing and manufacturing system. We will store it for the winter and use it on the houses of the people in spring. "
Li Yi had planned everything step by step.
