I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

As for the Supervision Department, of course Lao Fang knew about that place, but he knew very well that it was not something he, a housekeeper, could touch.

What's more, what he did was actually a private matter, so how could he go directly to the Supervision Department.

Li Shimin was doing the old man a favor, or Zhang Nuo's face, not only did he meet the old man, but he also lent him a few people.

After Lao Fang borrowed manpower, he was really impolite. With a big wave of his hand, he directly recruited special manpower from the guards at home and the industry, and cooperated with these few guest officials with very mysterious backgrounds, and directly bloomed and stationed in all the research institutes under the name of Prince Qin's Mansion.

Starting from auditing accounts, checking in and out records, checking the interpersonal communication of important employees, etc., the manpower organized by Lao Fang this time is like a big net, which instantly surrounded these research institutes under the name of Prince Qin's Mansion.

These days, as the head of the family, it’s really impolite to check the property under your own name. No one talks to you about human rights, privacy rights, etc., especially when you vaguely know that there are research institutes. On the premise that someone resold the core information of the research institute, everyone cooperated honestly.

Just kidding, if this gets involved, at least it will be peeled off. Everyone knows that under such circumstances, the group of people that Lao Fang brought over must have committed murder, let alone really wanted to If you get into trouble, it's basically a cold ending. No relationship, connections, or background are absolutely useless.

After all, no matter how extensive your family's connections and contacts are, if you die, it's just a matter of going to His Majesty to say a word, and what the Qin Palace represents is that when the master is at home, it can even serve as half of His Majesty's home.

Didn’t this word come out? It was Li Shimin himself who said it at a banquet once. At that time, everyone was talking and laughing. When talking about the good story of Li Shimin and Zhang Nuo’s acquaintance, someone asked jokingly, Your Majesty and the King of Qin What is the level of His Highness's friendship?

Li Shimin didn't even think about it, and said directly, I can be half of Qin Wangfu, and Zhang Nuo can also be half of this Tang Dynasty, this is the real friendship between them.

Chapter 942 Zhang Nuo's new problem

Although Datang is surging with turbulent waves and undercurrents, there is no movement on the Central South battlefield. After all, whether the troops and equipment deployed by Datang in this place, there is a gap of more than one dimension. Son, the main purpose is to preserve manpower and local resources as much as possible, and by the way, it is also training and developing together.

Zhang Nuo's energy is currently being spent on this, and even many soldiers are complaining, we didn't come to fight, maybe we were pulled to work as coolies.

That's right, fighting is something new to these soldiers who have been here for half a year. Except for the harsh environment, there is really no difficulty in other things, but Zhang Nuo's requirements are different. Every time he goes to a place, he will ask Everyone builds a city.

Although Zhang Nuo had brought all those captives here to work as coolies, in fact, apart from being able to do the most basic carrying and odd jobs, these people can do shit. Could it be that they can work with cement?Are they building walls?

These things are newly released by Datang these years, and they are not available anywhere except Datang, let alone know them.

That's why these soldiers complained that they were fighting for a day or two and working for a month or two.

But it’s not without its benefits. These cities are actually at least hundreds of kilometers apart, and some are farther apart. In fact, the first purpose of these newly built cities is to serve as military camps, and then they will be handed over to Li Chengqian’s staff. Become the seat of the local county government.

And Zhang Nuo didn't ask them to work for nothing, as long as they participated in the local city building work, they could give priority to letting their family members immigrate here, and giving priority to buying land and developing industries.

In fact, Li Chengqian took the initiative to find Zhang Nuo to propose this policy. For Li Chengqian, the best way to develop this treasure land is to immigrate.

Immigrants can not only rapidly develop the local economy, tap local resources, but also stabilize the political situation. After all, who is Li Chengqian? This is the prince of the dynasty and the future emperor. Yes, then in this place where the language is different and the customs are different, people naturally have a good impression of him and the government he leads.

To put it bluntly, they came here because they were unfamiliar with the place, and they came here just to earn money and develop their family business. If they didn't have someone to back them up, no one would be afraid.

After all, before they came, they were basically ordinary people from small households, so they couldn't bring their family members along with them, since they had to ask the government to support them;

Among other things, at least the laws and rules of the Tang Dynasty, they know a lot better than these locals who are not much better than savages.

Datang's current rules are that as long as you abide by the rules, you can live comfortably in Datang, and in these extra places, it's not to mention that you are from Datang, and you follow Datang's rules. According to the rules, the officials and soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will definitely support you.

This is also a point of view that Li Chengqian has been promoting vigorously recently. After all, not everyone has the courage to start afresh in an unfamiliar place. Now in the Tang Dynasty, anyone who works hard can live a better life than he could have imagined before.

And those who can come here are basically two extremes, either the family has developed quite well, and the brothers came here to start a new family business after the separation, or they just can't get along in their hometown due to various reasons. .

No matter which of the two is, it has no effect on Datang. After all, even if they migrated from the mainland, they are still citizens of Datang, and they still develop and pay taxes on the land of Datang. Not to mention that after moving to Xinna land, it will be easier for Datang to manage that place.

That's right, for immigrants and the government, the two rely on each other. Immigrants need the support of the government to dare to start a family business in this unfamiliar place, and the government needs these immigrants to stabilize the place, stimulate the economy and act as the government. A mediator with the locals.

It is precisely for the purpose of developing these that Li Chengqian and Zhang Nuo came up with a plan to build a permanent barracks.

Don't think it's easy to build a city, but in fact, for the local people who were still living in thatched cottages and wooden houses before, watching these Tang people build a brand new city in a month or two is very miraculous, and all of them are built with big stones. The same solid, that kind of impact is stronger than the various new weapons and equipment that Tang Jun took out during the previous war.

After all, ordinary people don't know if there are such magical weapons in other places. As ordinary people, they only care about their own basic necessities, but knowing weapons doesn't mean they don't know houses.

Just look at them, the richest and most powerful live in big houses made of big stones, and inside are decorated with various gold, jade, agate, ivory, and precious wood.

The poor can only live in thatched huts and wooden huts, but the people of Tang Dynasty, ordinary soldiers live in this kind of brick and stone houses, and they can't figure out that this kind of house can be built so easily.

Although they don't understand the language, it doesn't prevent them from gesticulating. While gesticulating, they are slowly learning the Mandarin of Tang Dynasty. The chicken and duck are also very interesting.

At the same time, because of envy, the balance in their hearts slowly began to tilt towards Datang.

After all, in the Indochina Peninsula at the moment, there is no sense of family and country, at most there is only religious belief, but this is not what everyone believes in. They don’t have much good opinion of the country of Datang. After all, whoever Just now someone knocked over your house and forced you to move, you don't like it.

But if you want to say what you hate about Datang, you can't say it, because although there are many rules in Datang, the benefits are also good. As long as you work hard, you will not worry about eating and drinking.

At the same time, Datang's inclusive mentality is really attractive.

However, these things are all done slowly, Zhang Nuo is not in a hurry, and Li Chengqian is not in a hurry, because they both know that these things cannot be advanced quickly, they can only be done slowly and meticulously. If you really want to use strong medicine, it will be fine for a short time, but there will definitely be problems for a long time.

Zhang Nuo didn't care much about these things. After all, to put it bluntly, he was just a marshal who commanded an army to conquer cities and land, not a local governor.

If he can help Datang take down these places and point out the benefits of this place, he is already worthy of Li Shimin's trust, not to mention that he has come to Datang for such a life, and he has done too many other things?Sorry, he's just a salted fish!

Chapter 943 The Consideration of Li Shimin and His Son

But sometimes it's like this, when your ability has been shown, even if you want to hide or be salty, those things will come to you, for example, Li Chengqian who is standing in front of him licking his face now.

Zhang Nuo lay back speechless, slumped on his seat like a salted fish, and said in a dull voice after a long time,

"You kid can't think of a way on your own. You are the governor of Zhongnan, and I ask your master for everything. What is this? Isn't this cheating and shameless!"

Li Chengqian has followed Zhang Nuo's ass all these years, and the one who has improved the most may be his cheeks. He used to be an honest kid who would blush and feel embarrassed when he made a joke, and would get red eye circles when he was teased, but now, he is slapped face to face. , It's as if I haven't heard it, this is growth.

But Zhang Nuo only complained a few words. He is quite satisfied with his little apprentice. At least he knows that what the Tang Dynasty needs in the future is a gentle and tolerant emperor. Anyway, Lao Li will still be in power for decades. , enough to knock down the entire planet.

Then when Li Chengqian came to power, his task would be very simple, to integrate, stabilize, and promote the development of science and technology culture.

But Li Chengqian's personality is really suitable for this job. In fact, sometimes Zhang Nuo wondered whether in history, if Li Chengqian hadn't killed himself and succeeded to the throne in a serious manner, would Tang Dynasty have taken a different path.

At least a person like Wu Zetian is impossible to appear in Li Chengqian, because although Li Chengqian has a very gentle personality, in fact, as the eldest son and grandson of the old Li family, he has received relevant education since he was a child, and he is not good at rights. very sensitive.

There will never be a situation where his own woman is allowed to control the government. It seems that he is polite to everyone.But in fact, there are only a few people who can really gain his trust.

And Zhang Nuo was obviously one of them.

Regarding Zhang Nuo, Li Shimin and his son had actually talked about it several times. Usually, the father and son talked about what new things Zhang Nuo came up with, or what new ideas he had for the New Deal, but there was only one day when Li Chengqian was silent for a while. Later, I asked Li Shimin a question,

"Father, although you and your teacher are brothers of Jinlan, you two are indeed a pair of good brothers and partners who cooperate perfectly. But in the future, when the sons and ministers want to inherit the throne, the teacher's power and wealth will be at their peak. , no matter in the court or in the army, there are a lot of old and old disciples, what should I do at that time?"

At that time Li Shimin looked at him very playfully and said,

"What, are you worried about your teacher?"

Li Chengqian shook his head very calmly, nodded after a while and said,

"Of course I don't worry about it now. I know the teacher's character. He is really not interested in these things and just wants to live his own life. But I am worried that after the teacher has children in the future, he will think about the children and family members. For the benefit of the family, do things that I don't like on weekdays!"

Li Shimin shook his head with a smile, patted Li Chengqian on the shoulder and said,

"If it's someone else, you're right, then you must be worried, and I have to praise you for being cautious, but if it's with your teacher, then there's no need."

Seeing that Li Chengqian was a little puzzled, Li Shimin smiled and patted him on the shoulder. He has become more and more satisfied with this son in recent years. The progress visible to the naked eye is enough to make a father proud, so whenever he has the opportunity , He is not hesitant to chat with the children more, so as to impart some of his own experience.

"Your teacher, the biggest difference from other people is that he is too capable, and because of his great ability, he doesn't like many things, and he just wants to live his own life!"

"Why do I only talk to him about brotherhood and not about the friendship between monarch and minister? Because he doesn't see monarch and minister in his eyes. He helps me not because I am the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but purely because his good brother Li Shimin happens to be the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty." , that's why he helped, so you understand?"

Li Chengqian nodded as if suddenly enlightened, he naturally understood the meaning contained in Li Shimin's seemingly convoluted words.

"Because of this, I have to coax him well. Otherwise, he would rather be a merchant with money and leisure. Anyway, he has all the skills, and no one can bully him. If something really happens It's a big deal and let's go, anyway, there is no place in the world that he dare not go to, I guess your teacher can still have a good life in another place!"

Li Chengqian has to admit this point, his teacher is very good at living, obviously capable, but the first thing that comes to mind is definitely not helping the world and helping the poor, but how to live a comfortable life for himself.

Seeing that Li Chengqian understood, Li Shimin turned around and threw out another big news.

"I told your teacher very seriously once that I planned to make him, the King of Qin, a hereditary successor. In this way, I will give you the seat in the future. If you can't win over him, his children will help you in the future. In this way, our two families will be bound together! It's a pity that he refused!"

Li Chengqian was dumbfounded when he heard the news. King Qin, this is not just about the only prince other than the prince. meaning.

Originally, Zhang Nuo's throne belonged to him, and if he is gone, the throne will be gone. Although in the future, if he has children, his children will definitely not lose the title, but King Qin is impossible.

But what did he hear just now, that his father wants to make the title of King Qin hereditary?And his teacher refused?

Li Chengqian didn't know what to say at the moment, he actually understood his father's thoughts, for a teacher as capable as his, the future children would definitely be outstanding, so naturally he had to win over him well.

His father and his teacher had already had a good story, so in the future, there might be another good story between him and his junior brother.

Moreover, judging from the present, he is already sixteen, and his teacher has no children yet, so in the future, this little junior can not only help him, but also help his children, how great it is.

However, his father had already used Qin Wangjue as a bargaining chip, but his teacher refused, what can we do?

Li Shimin was funny looking at Li Chengqian's aggrieved look, but he was also sore in his heart. Zhang Nuo actually told him clearly that he was a salted fish and wanted to train his son to be a salted fish in the future. As for King Qin Jue, I am not rare.

Chapter 944 A Strange Nation

Although Zhang Nuo rejected Li Shimin's kindness, in fact, there was a tacit understanding between him and Li Shimin. He knew very well that even if Prince Qin could not give him a son, in the future, when he really had a child, that title would be absolutely impossible. Less.

After all, when the time comes, his children will be called Uncle Li Shimin and Brother Li Chengqian. With this kind of relationship, it will definitely be a painless thing to get some kind of title.

Not to mention Zhang Nuo's inexhaustible meritorious deeds. He simply started at a frighteningly high level and then became unsealable. However, the meritorious deeds are all recorded, and it will not be a problem for his children to mess around with titles at that time. would be too low.

So what Li Chengqian was worried about, Li Shimin told him in such a tactful way, your teacher is a salted fish and wants to train a salted fish in the future, so don't worry about him having bad intentions.

Since then, Li Chengqian has trusted Zhang Nuo more and more. After all, his father's experience told him that if you don't take the initiative to find your teacher, even if your teacher knows you are in trouble, he will treat you as if he couldn't see it. temper.

Therefore, Li Chengqian is in Zhongnan anyway, and Zhang Nuo is by his side. If he doesn't know how to take advantage of it, he is a fool.

Of course, he didn't forget his purpose of coming here. He came here to train himself and create some chips for his succession in the future. If he went to the teacher for everything, then he would be in vain.

Therefore, if he doesn't have a particularly headache, he will usually try to solve it by himself. Only when he really can't think of any good ideas will he ask Zhang Nuo.

For example, the question now is,

"So, your biggest problem now is that those people are lazy and don't work? They don't want to move because they feel that they have food? It's useless to give out rewards?"

After Li Chengqian heard Zhang Nuo's question, he nodded in a hurry, his little head almost dangling from his neck.

Zhang Nuo sighed, damn it, does this place have traditions or something?

Isn't this a custom that will only be found in the open country in the future, as long as you don't starve to death, you can eat fish to the end.

Zhang Nuo Xianyu belongs to Xianyu, he also has his own dream, and has worked hard to create a business, and he will only be able to live comfortably on the premise of Xianyu.

And he didn't give up his family's property even if he was salted fish, and he didn't forget to help Datang at the same time.

But it’s not the same to open up the nationalities, this is the real salty fish, as long as there is a place that can shelter from the wind and rain, and there is a stutter, you don’t need to live too well or eat too well, it’s enough , That's really no meaning to make progress at all.

According to Zhang Nuo, it's not called salted fish, it's called pig.

But you don’t have any particularly good solutions, because it’s almost engraved into other people’s genes. Humans really have nothing to fight for, and their requirements are too low.

So after pondering for a while, Zhang Nuo could only say to Li Chengqian,

"I don't have any other good solution here. Chengqian, this kind of temperament is in the bones of others. If you want to change it, you can only start from the next generation, pay close attention to education, and try to reverse it as much as possible!"

"For the existing group of people, the only way is to act both hard and soft. On the one hand, give out rewards to make those who still have some ambitions look forward to it. On the other hand, it is to punish those who are like dead pigs. Let them know that being lazy is a dead end!"

"Only if the sweetness in the front is big enough and the knives in the back are sharp enough, they will rush forward screaming. Otherwise, your current rewards in the front are not big enough and not attractive enough, and there are no knives in the back, only whips, not enough It's scary, they don't bother to talk to you at all, okay!"

Li Chengqian was speechless upon hearing this,

"Teacher, the children can enter the school in the hall to study, and in the future they will be able to enter the Imperial University, isn't this reward enough?

This kind of reward is a one-for-one reward in Datang. I was thinking about donating more money to Mr. Du in the future, and then saying good things to get this reward! "

"Besides, the whipping is already severe enough. The people under my command, especially those in charge of punishment, are all from the Yamen. That whip is enough to hurt people for several days!"

Zhang Nuo nodded calmly. Li Chengqian's idea was correct, but he used it in the wrong place.

However, he is Li Chengqian's teacher, so the teacher should point out the students' mistakes.

"Chengqian, your method is correct, but the last thing you should do is to put the experience of Datang here intact. You should have discovered it when you were in Koryo and Fusang Island. Since when did your teacher and I do things that are routine?"

"The so-called governing should not be a rote application of rules and experience. If it were that simple, then there would never be those political masters in history, and no one would study the books of those political masters!"

"To put it bluntly, a sentence that adapts to local conditions and varies from person to person is enough for you to think for a long time!"

"You have to know that these natives don't even know what is so good about Jingshi University, and they don't even have the concept of sending their children to study in their minds. What's the use of telling them this?

Not to mention, do you expect that a person who can't even live a good life and only wants to live like a pig will have a sense of responsibility to take care of the child's development? "

"As for whipping, the person receiving the whip naturally knows it hurts, but he knows that other people don't. They only think that the person receiving the whip is useless. What's the point of whipping two whips!"

Li Chengqian looked at Zhang Nuo dumbfounded. How could this thing be said? There are still parents in this world who don't care about the life and development of their children?Is there any idiot in this world who thinks a whip doesn't hurt?

It was also funny for Zhang Nuo to look at Li Chengqian's rare and strange appearance,

"Don't think too much, this is actually quite normal. The reason why you are asked to adapt to local conditions is because different local cultures, customs, etc. are really different from Datang. You need to think about this!"

"So, I suggest you in the future, don't make any enrollment quotas for the Imperial University. It's hard to get that thing, and it's thankless to let it out. The simplest thing is to offer real gold and silver rewards, and it can't even just be verbal." Say, put it there for them to see!"

"Then don't make any whips, just use a knife to chop, chop hands and feet, whatever. Anyway, you'll see blood, if you don't make a few models, these bastards really don't know how many princes Ma have. Eyes!"
