Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

After beating up Li Tai, Li Ke calmed down a lot. Hey, no wonder the tough guys in the army come five kilometers for nothing, or fight against each other. This is indeed the best way to vent their energy.

All these years, I have been able to be so calm and have not done anything wrong. The eldest Sun Chong has contributed a lot. Let's treat him to a meal another day.

Abandoning Li Tai, Li Ke naturally went to find Li Shimin, and when he heard that he was taking care of his sons, Li Ke was a little speechless, good guy, I played with my sisters, you disliked me, but you let me supervise the country, you and The girls play, right?

The old father is willful.

When Li Ke came over, he found that Li Shimin was leading Sizi and the others to ride a horse. Naturally, they were riding the pony that Li Ke had prepared for Sizi and the others.

Seeing Li Ke approaching, Li Shimin couldn't help coughing twice, feeling a little embarrassed, after all, Li Shimin was still yelling when Li Ke gave his sons and sisters a horse to ride, but now he took the horse with him.

The main reason is that Li Shimin also discovered the benefits of Sizi and the others playing wildly, that is, after more than a year, the health of these little guys seems to be getting better and better, and they don't get sick much, unlike before.

So Li Shimin didn't stop them, as long as it was absolutely safe, just let them play like crazy.

"Why is His Royal Highness the King of Qin here? Didn't he go to Zhuangzi outside the city instead of going to court?" Li Shimin squinted at Li Ke, "The couplet, oh, it should be said that the poem is well written, the spring night is short Since the sun rises, the king will not go to court early?"

"Hey, Comrade Your Majesty, I don't think about it either. I was born with a lot of work and couldn't take time off. I went outside the city, but I remembered something again. I can't do it if I don't come back." Li Ke waved his hands helplessly.

"His Royal Highness, King Qin is fine. You are out of breath when you say you are fat, and what does this comrade mean?" Li Shimin sat down on a chair beside him.

"Your Majesty, it means like-minded people." Li Ke waved his hands weakly.

"Tell me, what advice does His Royal Highness King Qin have?" Li Shimin took a sip of tea.

"Comrade Your Majesty, it's about farming." Li Ke sighed helplessly, then took out a piece of information from his bosom and handed it to Li Shimin.

This is the relevant investigation report of Yuelai Commercial Bank on the lack of private animal power and farm tools. According to this report, about [-]% of the land of the people in the world is almost completely unplanted, which means that they have no income.

But when collecting taxes, it is impossible for the common people to evade the taxes on the [-]% of the land, and they have to pay them.

Li Shimin took it and looked at it. About a quarter of an hour later, Li Shimin raised his head and asked in surprise: "If I remember correctly, isn't this something that you asked the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Industry to investigate together about a month ago?" ? There will be a result so soon?"

"Comrade Your Majesty, what are you thinking? Don't you know the efficiency of your officials? You told me before that the task for these six ministries is too heavy." Li Ke slumped on the chair, talking lazily, while Picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Then what are you?" Li Shimin looked at the report in his hand. The investigation content in it can be said to be very detailed. What are the ten provinces and states in the world that have no animal power, lack of animal power and farm tools? There are detailed statistics.

"My firm did it. My firm originally had branches in every state. You know about the establishment of schools. Before the city that never sleeps, I asked my firm to contact local merchants, small families, and small merchants. They have local acquaintances, and there is no problem in finding them."

"I passed on the news. The shopkeeper of my firm found people from these aristocratic families and merchants. They went to the village to inquire about the news, and then summarized it, and passed it on quickly." Li Ke said helplessly.

Li Shimin was silent for a moment, the Tang court was no match for the efficiency of a commercial firm, this...

"Then you came here to make the six departments reform?" Li Shimin asked after thinking about it.

"What does it have to do with the Six Departments? They seem to have nothing to do with me. I'm here for the people." Li Ke sighed, "The people are the foundation of my Tang Dynasty. I don't care about other things, but they are closely related to the people. I can't help but care that a policy can be implemented one day earlier, and tens of thousands of people will be saved from death when there is a possibility of a catastrophe."

Looking at Li Ke, Li Shimin didn't say anything on the surface, but he was very relieved in his heart. This is what he is satisfied with Li Ke. He may have acted a lot of jerks, but he will always maintain this kind of attitude towards the people of the world. The heart of a child.

For such a lazy person, if he thinks of something, he can immediately come back from outside the city to discuss it with him. It is conceivable that he is tired on the surface, but he has nothing to do with people's livelihood in his heart.

"This thing... can't be solved." Li Shimin sighed, "You want to exempt the part of the land that cannot be cultivated from taxes?"

"Forget it, it will increase the workload of the Ministry of Civil Affairs." Li Ke thought for a while, but still vetoed it, "The policy of the imperial court is well-intentioned, but there are countermeasures at the top of the policy, and the tax exemption below, you will never We know whether it belongs to the common people or to some people with ulterior motives."

"So forget about the tax exemption, and find a way to let the people use this part of the land." Li Ke said.

"What can we do? They don't have enough time to plant these grains now." Li Shimin frowned.

"Promote economic crops." Li Ke said, "It just so happens that I signed a contract with the people this time to plant mulberry, which unintentionally made up for this part of the vacant arable land. In places where there is insufficient animal power, I will let people increase the amount of land available to the local people. The number of acres signed by each household. The hemp crops are planted in one year and harvested in many years, and these lands can be ignored.”

"In the future, they can be encouraged to grow rapeseed. The planting time of rapeseed is different from that of wheat or corn, but the oil pressed from rapeseed now has enough market in Datang. People can sell it for money."

"Third, I'm going to promote a brand new crop, alfalfa." Li Ke said.

"Alfalfa?" Li Shimin was taken aback for a moment.

"A high-quality forage with a large yield. Like ramie, it can be planted as a perennial crop, and its shoots can be eaten as vegetables. In addition, it can be used for the common people to raise sheep. At the same time, it is chopped to feed Chickens, ducks and other poultry can even be fed to pigs, which can allow the common people to eat a little meat or lard for a year! The most important point is that alfalfa can fertilize the fields!"

"Some relatively barren land can be turned into good fertile land by planting alfalfa for two to three years, and then rotation can increase food production." Li Ke took a deep breath and said.

Alfalfa is in a way... really a magic weapon!This thing can be fed to livestock, poultry, and pigs, and it can also be used to fertilize the fields. It is a perennial plant, rich in all the amino acids and rare amino acids needed by humans and animals. Of course, don’t expect it to feed pigs like The pigs of later generations grow so fast, but grow slowly, so they are raised!

"There are such crops?!" Li Shimin was dumbfounded, this is simply a perfect crop.
