"It's delicious." Song Jing grabbed a jianbing. He insisted on eating jianbing even though it was wonton.
However, he did not drink soy milk as his stomach was not feeling well, so he drank wonton soup.
"After eating, let's go to Mount Li. We have to thank the royal family for having a temporary imperial residence there. The roads there are easier to travel."
Li Yi was eating wontons. He added a lot of pepper, which was mixed with scallion seeds.
He bought so much and kept it for himself. He felt that the scallion seed powder was not bad.
He added too much pepper and was sweating while drinking the soup.
"Do you want to lay tracks outside the city?" Song Jing's mood was much better. At least Li Yi did not look down on him.
"Yes, all the tracks in the 20 counties. If we mobilize the manpower, we can finish laying tracks in one summer and start using them in early autumn.
It is convenient to transport by water, but the speed is not enough. There are many wild fruits in autumn and the people will pick them.
If we use the water network to transport them, the fruits will not be fresh when they reach the place.
For example, mulberries. If they are not transported to Chang 'an quickly, they will spoil. "
Li Yi gave a reason for the people to sell things.
Su Yi said from the side: "Aren't mulberries in summer? It will be too late if we finish laying tracks in autumn. "
"Next summer." Li Yi realized that he was also tired of arguing.
"Can the wooden tracks still be used in winter?" Wei Zhigu had a question.
He was thinking about using sleighs in winter. The people rented livestock and used sleighs.
"Li Family Zhuangzi has fewer horses in winter and will sell them to the new relay stations. The number of horses and other livestock in the relay stations must increase.
Horse drawn sleighs are not as fast as horse drawn carriages on the tracks. Horse drawn sleighs reduce friction, but they are not as fast as wheels. "
Li Yi explained. There were so many relay stations and it was not easy to buy a large number of livestock in a short period of time.
His Zhuangzi sold 30,000 horses to support the local areas.
Some of the horses were also sent to the Hetao area to breed. There will be more horses in a few years.
"So, the price of livestock will gradually increase?"
Bi Goo was interested. The sale of livestock had to pay taxes. Pigs and sheep had to pay a little.
"There are many horses in the grasslands, the northwest, and the west. The price of Chang 'an horses is very high. In order to make money, the provincial governors will sell a portion of them."
Li Yi didn't have a good impression of the regional commanders.
They had too much power. Once the imperial power in Chang 'an became unstable, the regional commanders could rebel at will. There were also regional commanders in name, but in reality, they had their own tribes.
The ethnic minorities had to be in contact with each other for a long time, and it would be best if the ethnic minorities could be integrated.
Otherwise, they would not have a sense of belonging to the Central Plains. They would always feel that the people of the Central Plains were not the same as them.
He had dealt with this problem the best at that time. Although there were still some people in the northwest who wanted to cause trouble, most of them were willing to live well.
There were also some ethnic groups, such as the Kazakhs, who helped to guard the border.
Whenever something happened to them, such as a snow disaster, the government promised to send help as quickly as possible because they had sacrificed many lives to guard the border.
The current Tang dynasty is no good. As soon as they see that you are weak, they will rebel. Why should you be the emperor?
Have you forgotten when your founding emperor submitted to the Turks? Have you forgotten about the two-legged sheep?
Li Yi had always been vigilant. He would rather raise the price of livestock to attract the regional commanders, governors, and governors to sell their extra horses.
As for the border? The ones who could fight now were all those who supported the imperial power.
"Xiao Yi, you seem to have some special thoughts about the regional commanders?"
Bi Goo could sense it. Li Yi had targeted the regional commanders a few times.
"I have thoughts about everyone. All of them are so stupid. They can't even handle political, economic, financial, and educational issues well."
Li Yi glanced around and found that all four of them were present.
The four of them: "…"
After finishing their 'breakfast', the group of people headed to Mount Li. 1,000 Winged Knights followed them.
Wang Xing naturally came over. During winter, his cherries were praised by everyone.
He had started to install greenhouses on the cherry trees two years ago and succeeded last year.
No matter how expensive a cucumber was in winter, how could it be more expensive than a cherry in winter?
In autumn, watermelons could be soaked in salt water and stored until winter. But what about cherries?
In winter, rich people could only eat canned cherries. Fresh cherries were out of the question.
Wang Xing did not take any of them out. Other than supplying the imperial family, he shared them with the Li Family Zhuangzi.
He secretly sold some wood ears, monkey head mushrooms, eggs, salted duck eggs, goose eggs, and century eggs.
After selling them, he quickly gave the money to Li Yi and asked him to keep them safe.
There was no interest, and Wang Xing did not ask him to keep them safe.
The farmers in the Imperial Plantation got their share of the profits again. This year, they were preparing to build a two-story building. It was obvious how much money they got.
"Li Dongzhu, are the cadavers from last time still useful?" Wang Xing did not dare to call Li Yi Brother Yi.
He was afraid that he would get used to calling him Brother Yi and accidentally say it in front of the emperor.
At that time, he would not only lose his position as the supervisor of the Imperial Plantation.
"They trained well. The weather is hot, and cadavers are not easy to find. According to your method, the Li Family Zhuangzi can take it."
Li Yi finally agreed to Wang Xing's method. If someone died, they would immediately send it to the Li Family Zhuangzi.
To outsiders, they would say that they were fighting with the King of Hell. If they couldn't win, then there was nothing they could do.
If one of them could be saved, like the Xu Family's baby, they would not lack cadavers in the future.
Wang Xing had a clear conscience. He found corpses for Li Yi to practice on and also to save people who were still alive.
He did not get any benefits from it. He did not give anyone a vagina.
In the afternoon, they arrived at Mount Li Palace. The scenery here was still so enchanting.
Only when the emperor brought the ministers to Mount Li could the ministers see it. The Huaqing Pool was not small. It was a lake.
Wang Xing did not open a side hall this time. The ministers had their own places. Li Yi did not care where he lived.
He could enter the main hall whenever he wanted, but it was too spacious.
"Next time Third Brother and Sister-in-law come, Brother Wang, you can open the main hall directly. Just say that the ancestors of the imperial family are gracing them today."
Li Yi gave Wang Xing ideas. The previous few times, he had arranged for them to stay in the side hall.
Wang Xing blinked. "Good idea. Yes, why didn't I think of that? That's right. The ancestors of the Tang dynasty are gracing them, so the people can also be graced. "
As he spoke, he smiled slyly. Next time, he would open the main hall.
"Everyone, since you're here, let's soak. I can't see anything new today. I'm too tired. If I let you guys fly now, you probably won't be able to come back."
Li Yi invited everyone to soak in the hot spring. The water in the hot spring was flowing. It was not stagnant water. Who would get dirty from soaking in it?
"You asked for it. It's the first soup." Bi Goo was a little nervous. He had soaked in it once before. It was a reward from the side.
Now that the emperor was not here, he could enter the main pool directly.
"The first soup refers to the first soup of the year. The current one has already been soaked. Soak. Don't be afraid. Those who can swim can swim in the Huaqing Pool."
Li Yi said as he went to change his clothes. He wanted to swim in a swimsuit. He also brought a piggy bubble ball.
He could not use it in swimming, but he still brought it. Those who drowned would drown.
Those who did not know how to swim would accidentally fall into the water and drown. There were not many people like that.
Those who drowned every year felt that they were good at swimming. Those who were good at swimming drowned. Those who were good at riding fell.
