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

To expose this kind of thing, it is necessary to have a large amount of weight and measure it fiercely, so that people can be stunned at one time. That kind of lukewarm swallowing of water one at a time will make things more troublesome.

However, Lao Li has already started collecting information on Buddhism before, so it seems that he has some tricks.

This is what it takes to be an emperor. Regardless of whether you have provoked me or not, I will arrange it in advance. When you are free or have a reason, I will immediately use it to kill you.

This kind of thing can only be done by an emperor with enough people in his hands.

"In addition, Lao Li, I have to remind you that there are monks and soldiers in many temples. You must pay attention to it, and don't mess up the good situation in the country!"

"This has been arranged for a long time. After investigation, the total number of monks and soldiers in Chang'an and Luoyang may not be less than 3. I will not let them have a good life! Don't they like to hide from the world? Don't they Do you like the secular world? Then dig mines and mine mountains for me!"

Well, when Zhang Nuo saw the latest telegram full of zhen a zhen, and the anger that had nowhere to rest, he knew that Lao Li was on top.

No wonder, as an emperor who started as a rebel and finally grabbed the throne by himself, the most intolerable thing may be others' challenges to him.

Today's Japanese and Buddhists can be regarded as just hitting the gun.

On the one hand, he directly assassinated Zhang Nuo and seized the land on the Goryeo side. On the other hand, he hoarded weapons, armor and eight-ox crossbows in Chang'an. It's weird.

Not to mention that the Buddhist sect itself hides a group of monks and soldiers with relatively high force value, but if the Buddhist sect really has any intentions, Li Shimin does not believe that these people will not have armor and weapons.Then, almost instantly, tens of thousands of soldiers will appear in and out of Chang'an overnight.

How can this be tolerated?

Li Shimin himself started his career as a rebel, and the most annoying thing is that others rebelled against him. If Buddhism is only about making money, maybe there is still a chance to survive for a while, but now I have met Li Shimin's rebellion, ha ha, cool two One word is their theme song.

However, Zhang Nuo was still a little worried, would this group of Buddhist sects cause public dissatisfaction, demonstrations and riots?

Zhang Nuo has a good thing, that is, try not to pretend if you don't understand, and ask directly, so just thinking of this, he sent a telegram directly, expressing his worries, this time Li Shimin's reply came very quickly,

"Who dares?"

Looking at the reply displayed on the tablet, Zhang Nuo was really a little surprised, what the fuck, Lao Li is so domineering, who dares to say that, how confident is this.

On the other hand, Xingben, who had been waiting on the sidelines, saw the telegram just now, thought about it and explained directly,

"Your Highness, Your Majesty has the confidence to say this. At most, those bald donkeys in Buddhism are just inciting some believers to go to the streets to make trouble. As long as they don't fight against the officers and soldiers with weapons, then just send people to disperse them!"

"When the time comes, we'll pick a few of the worst offenders and arrest them. They'll be fined, beaten, or even beheaded. By the way, we'll announce the filthy things in the temple, and we'll be fine!"

"Ordinary people, in fact, they are not very courageous. It's not like they are forced on their own heads. They can only yell a few words at most, and let it pass!"

After listening to Xingben's explanation, Zhang Nuo suddenly realized that he was confused. This is not the time when the later generations pay attention to harmony and people-oriented. If someone dares to stand up and oppose when Li Shimin arranges people to attack Buddhism and search the house at this time.

Hehe, as long as you don't beat them to death or disable them, you can just expel them. Whoever gets next to them can only consider themselves unlucky. I really think that the government will not dare to do it.

After Zhang Nuo figured it out, he also smiled. He was indeed dazzled by the rule of law and prosperity of the later generations, and he was also confused by Li Shimin's love for the people like his son who talked about it every day.

In this era, if you can care about the basic necessities of the people at the bottom, and make them eat and wear warm clothes, you can really live up to the saying of loving the people like a child.

As for talking nonsense about human rights, hehe, don't even think about it, be honest and obedient, and live in peace and stability.

Zhang Nuo thought about it over and over again, and found that there was nothing to say, and he slowly let go of his heart. He wanted to participate in the affairs of Buddhism, especially to find out why Buddhism was involved in the plans of the Japanese kingdom, but he was not there after all. In the pass, so we can only wait for news from Lao Li.

But he also agreed with Li Shimin that along the line of the Japanese country, he had to dig down no matter what. He had to figure out how many people participated in it and what was the purpose of participating in it. Might be another pile of trouble.

Li Shimin also recognized this point very much, he is not the kind who can be fooled easily, Buddhism is in trouble this time!

Chapter 551

Regarding Li Shimin's follow-up entanglement with Buddhism, Zhang Nuo has nothing to do except beep a few words. After all, he is in Korea at this time, so why not fly back to deal with this matter?

But he is very concerned about one thing, that is, after his repeated memories and inquiries, no matter whether Wude or Zhenguan, there has never been such a big conflict between the court and Buddhism in this year.

Regardless of the reality or the history in Zhang Nuo's memory, he did not deal with the Buddhist Li Shimin, and at the same time, there were no scandals such as collusion with the Japanese kingdom.

Logically speaking, if there is such a force in history colluding with the Wa country, then there should be some disturbances. They dare to assassinate themselves, the king of Qin, here. Don't they have the guts to do other things in history?

But judging from the historical situation, although Buddhism did not develop particularly prosperously in the late Sui Dynasty and early Tang Dynasty, after Wu Zetian took over, Buddhism began to flourish like weeds.

Although there are many speculations and conjectures in the unofficial history and TV dramas, it is said that Wu Zetian was able to succeed in Li Zhi's position because of the help of Buddhism.

But this just proves in reverse that Buddhism was absolutely suppressed during the Zhenguan period, and nothing happened.

After all, if you have enough chips in your hand, you won't get involved in the wars of those women in the harem, because the wars between women, especially the wars in the harem, have nothing to do with power, power, and money at all, relying on beauty and means .

If there is a choice, no force is willing to get involved in this, because external forces can't make any effort at all, and only those forces that can't get on the stage and have no channels and connections will be so desperate.

It can be seen from this that in the history of the Eight Classics of Zheng'er, the Wu Zetian period was not mentioned, at least during the Zhenguan period, Buddhism definitely did not have much influence at all.

But now, such an unobtrusive Buddhist faction is so courageous enough to assist other countries to prepare eight-ox crossbows in Chang'an City, and even assassinate the first-class prince. This damn must have taken rat poison, otherwise Why are you looking for death?

Zhang Nuo just wanted to know the reason, because he always felt that this was like the butterfly effect brought about by him after he came to Datang, and he had to figure it out to feel comfortable.

However, the matter is left to Lao Li anyway, so let him think about it. No matter how hard he fumbles, he can't change his nature as a salted fish. Even if he grows, you want him to engage in intrigue now. He's really a little numb.

Perhaps at this time, if Zhang Nuo was in the Tang Dynasty, he could lead troops to raid his home or something, but he was far away in Korea, so he could only listen to the information sent by the telegram.

As for the matter of leading a team to ransack the house, hehe, many generals in the Tang Dynasty were from thieves, and they are professionals in doing this kind of thing.

Even Li Shimin's attention is only partly on this at this time, and more is still thinking about how to deal with the locust plague and drought.

This winter, because he received Zhang Nuo's advance notice, he knew the news of next year's drought and locust plagues. If he had only believed six points before, then this winter, when the warm winter came, he immediately believed ten percent.

Because Zhang Nuo said a long time ago, this winter is mild, so the insect eggs have not been frozen to death, and then the drought and locust disaster will come together next year, and finally there will be such a big trouble.

Compared with the natural disasters involving millions of people, the Buddhist incident is just that, and it's really not worth paying too much attention to.

In winter, after Li Shimin confirmed that this year is a warm winter and that he found a lot of insect eggs in the ground, he took advantage of Zhang Nuo's reputation and directly resorted to a trick.

The Ministry of Households mobilized funds to buy a large number of chickens and ducks and sent them to the ten villages where Zhang Nuo said that the locust plague might break out. At the same time, the local people were encouraged to raise chickens and ducks spontaneously.

Moreover, the government also promised in the name of Zhang Nuo that Zhang Nuo will be responsible for purchasing these chickens and ducks next year, so they will not raise them for nothing.

Of course, those chickens and ducks funded by the government will have to pay back the money.

It is equivalent to saying that this is the government lending money to farmers, but it is not cash, but chickens and ducks. At the same time, the government will guarantee the purchase after they are raised, and the eggs and duck eggs produced can be sold for money in the middle Woolen cloth.

These chicken cubs obtained in large quantities became a sight in winter, and groups began to dig up the ground in the fields to dig out the eggs one by one and eat them as snacks.

And because Li Shimin bragged about Zhang Nuo's "prophecy" ability in the imperial decree when the chickens were distributed, saying that these chickens were prepared for next year's drought and locust plagues, so when those farmers really saw the "prophecy" from the field When the worm eggs were obviously older than usual, I really couldn't believe it.

Zhang Nuo's arrangement is actually not a problem. Raising chickens can eat insect eggs to prevent locust plagues. During droughts, eggs can be sold for money for food, and even chickens can be sold directly. This can be said to kill three birds with one stone.

On the Korean side, because of the higher latitude and different climate, even though this winter is not as cold as usual, the actual temperature is still below zero.

This is why Goryeo is not so nervous about the locust plague.

However, Zhang Nuo is not worried about these things now. What he is worried about is how to further increase steel production and how to quickly transport these finished products back to the customs.

Zhang Nuo's economics belongs to the kind taught by his mother-in-law. Half a bucket of water sloshes violently, but he still knows the basic principles.

To promote the prosperity of a society as a whole, two aspects must be solved, the mass production of materials and the large-scale circulation of materials.

But these two aspects are so easy to solve.

In the final analysis, if you want the rapid circulation of goods, you must improve the traffic conditions. Currently, the most useful way for Zhang Nuo to improve traffic is the train.

After all, this is a proven and classic way to increase capacity!

The crazy consumption of building railways is really unbearable for ordinary steel factories!

Therefore, the question comes back again, how to increase the mining and production of iron ore.

Anyway, Zhang Nuo also thought about it. The first railway should be built directly from the steel factory to the seaside wharf. At that time, it can be used for experiments on the one hand, and on the other hand, it can also transport a large amount of materials directly to the port. Shipped directly to the customs.

After thinking about it, Zhang Nuo planned that his first job after the new year would be to deploy a group of people to the mine, and at the same time start laying the first railway in Datang, so that the steam engine would really bloom throughout the era.

Chapter 552 The birth of Datang's first machine

Zhang Nuo's idea is undoubtedly equivalent to the imperial decree in the area of ​​Pyongyang Road!

Although I don't know why Zhang Nuo is in such a hurry to hoard so much steel, but since Zhang Nuo has already made arrangements, the people below have no intention of resisting except complaining that they have to work just after the new year.

After all, for now, this place is no different from Zhang Nuo's fief, and Zhang Nuo alone has the final say.

Of course, if anyone can take out Li Shimin's imperial decree at this moment, it will be useful, but the key point is that everyone knows that His Royal Highness King Qin has a good relationship with His Majesty, and many things are actually done with His Majesty to oppose this King Qin Your Highness is actually no different from opposing His Majesty, so why are you looking for death?

At this time, Zhang Nuo was also a little bit buzzing. In order to further stimulate steel production, he directly put nearly 10 people in mines, steel factories, and other related projects.

If it wasn't for his identity, ordinary people would not let him act like this. How can there be such a crazy person who goes to mining and steelmaking? Don't do other jobs?

You know, because Zhang Nuo gave out a lot of small projects, there are many capable jobs here on Pyongyang Road, such as farming, fishing, breeding, processing special products, textiles, etc. There are many projects here, and the individual All are money making projects.

But no matter what project it is, the requirement for manpower is almost endless. After all, this is all the money in front of us. The huge and primitive market in the pass can almost digest all the products like a giant beast.

In this way, the only thing they lack is manpower. After all, there are countless raw materials here. As long as they organize manpower to produce them, they can be transported to the customs and exchanged for money.

Seriously, if Zhang Nuo hadn't spoken up, they would have wiped out all these workers. Who wouldn't want their family's property to grow bigger?

However, after Zhang Nuo's tossing, it is not without effect, that is, the steel output of Pyongyang Road is soaring at an almost incredible speed.

Zhang Nuo didn't just add some more manpower, he personally made a preliminary modification to the production equipment of the steel factory.

However, judging from the results, it is still very good, at least this thing in front of me is a proof.

What is placed before Zhang Nuo's eyes should be Datang's first serious self-produced machine--steam crusher.

This is a machine developed by the scientific research institute according to Zhang Nuo's requirements. It uses a steam engine to drive the steel teeth to occlude to complete the crushing work.

Now going for the first official run!

Although he had repeatedly debugged it when he was in the scientific research institute, Xu Bowen always looked at the thing in front of him with a little trepidation.

Because now it is different from what it used to be in the scientific research institute. Just like what His Royal Highness Qin Wang told him just now, this machine needs to be operated at high strength and for a long time. This is a test for all the components of the steam engine and the stone crusher. .

However, this is also a good opportunity. If this rock crusher can really run perfectly, then Xu Bowen will really become famous in Datang!

Xu Bowen secretly glanced at His Highness King Qin who was inspecting the machine in front of him, and let out a deep breath in his heart. It just depends on this time whether it is a big fish or a meal.

Not long after, Zhang Nuo completed the fake inspection, and started the real test with a wave of his hand.

This requires Xu Bowen to play. After all, he is the real manufacturer, and many messy things in it have been adjusted by him because he can't meet the parts standard on the drawing.

At least Zhang Nuo felt his scalp tingling when he saw so many levers in front of him. This was almost obsessive-compulsive disorder, and there was no industrial aesthetic feeling at all.

However, I will talk about the aesthetic feeling later, let's see the effect now.

Following Xu Bowen's order, first the steam engine on the side started to ignite under the operation of the researcher, and the other researcher started to pick up the manual blower on the side to manually supply air during ignition.

This is a necessary means when the machine is not started. After the machine is started, the blower that comes with it will be driven by the machine.

Not long after, when the researcher who was in charge of shaking the manual blower could hardly stand it anymore, the siren responsible for monitoring the air pressure on the top finally sounded.

Xu Bowen didn't dare to relax at all, while staring at the siren that no one except them could understand, he kept operating a few joysticks next to him.

Immediately afterwards, the rock crusher next to it, which was several laps larger than the steam engine, finally rumbled. At this moment, Xu Bowen turned his head and shouted at the workers beside him,

"Why are you still standing there, quickly put stones in!"

The worker next to him, who had been staring blankly for a while, finally woke up after being yelled at by Xu Bowen, and hurriedly followed the workflow repeatedly emphasized in the previous training, and began to use a wheelbarrow to move stones the size of a human head along a The small slope built up is transported to the top of the slope.

The top of the slope is flush with an opening on the top of the crushing machine. If it is poured in from here, it will just fall into the crushing machine, and at the same time, no other machinery is used for hoisting.

The stones that were poured into the crusher were obviously granite that had been prepared long ago, and just after they were poured in, the crusher made louder roars and metal collisions than before.

And one of the outlets on the side lived up to expectations and began to drop out pebbles the size of a baby's fist. The most important thing is that all the pebbles are about the same size.

A wheelbarrow that had been arranged for a long time was waiting under the discharge port, and behind him, there were five or six other cars of the same type.

Xu Bowen nervously watched the operation of the machine in front of him, and at the same time observed the feeding and discharging situation over there. After a while, sweat appeared on his forehead. He was really nervous.

After all, when he was in the research institute, he never thought that such a high-intensity test would be needed. Seeing His Royal Highness King Qin constantly asking people to replenish raw materials and pulling away finished stones, he was really worried that the machine would not be able to withstand it.

On the contrary, Zhang Nuo looked calm. Which of the machines on the construction site in later generations is not a rough product toss around casually?

To put it bluntly, a machine that can't bear the toss is not even qualified to enter the construction site. Naturally, the machines that Xu Bowen and the others have produced at this time cannot be compared with those of later generations, but Zhang Nuo must let them understand a The truth is, machines are made for use, not for offering.

What should be maintained and what should be maintained should be done naturally, but if you are hypocritical just because you feel sorry for the machine, you will go as far as you can.In Zhang Nuo's view, machines have one mission, which is to create sufficient value.

Chapter 553 The Railway Project Officially Begins

The test of the steam crusher is not enough for one or two loads of stones, and Zhang Nuo would not just stand there and watch the machine start to move before leaving.

As far as he is concerned, he really can't feel at ease without watching this thing run for an hour or two.

After all, there are no lathes these days, but they are all made by hand.

But there is no need to worry now, the first machine tool is also being built, and Zhang Nuo will naturally get it out as soon as possible for such a good thing that is called an industrial mother machine.

If it weren't for the fact that the requirements for the steel material of the cutter head were too strict, which made the Institute of Smelting and Casting get stuck, in fact, the steam crusher should be the second official machine of Datang.

In the process of developing the machine tool, almost all the project teams of the scientific research institute knew the news because there was no special secrecy, and then almost everyone saw the value contained in it.
