I am engaged in construction in Datang

The morning mist does not fall deep into the grass, and the setting sun does not see off the neighbors.

Female village.

"Brother, there is something good on the mountain that I want to show you." Li Yin led Li Shimin and his group towards the back mountain of the women's village.

Nuzhuang is located near mountains and rivers. Many mulberry trees are planted on the mountains, which were later converted into a breeding farm.

Rabbits, bamboo rats, pheasants, etc. are all raised in the planned location on the back mountain.

In order to ensure that there would be no invasion by large wild animals, Li Yin also brought people to clean up the place.

"What good thing is it that makes my sister so anxious?" Li Shimin was in good health and walked such a long way without even getting out of breath. However, Fang Xuanling and others beside him could not bear it.

"Master Li, slow down. We can't keep up." Fang Xuanling stopped, holding his knees with his hands and gasping for breath.

Li Yin paused when she saw this and said, "Duke Liang is only over fifty years old. He should exercise more in the future."

After that, she continued, "I have a way of exercising here, called radio gymnastics. I will teach you after we get down the mountain."

When Fang Xuanling and others heard this, they felt dizzy before their eyes.

These people have been in poor health recently. Who is to blame for this?

It’s you, Li Yin with thick eyebrows and big eyes!

The newspapers always write about some ways to develop the local area, so people from the counties and prefectures below always submit memorials to inquire about their authenticity and ask some strange questions.

For example, in the counties and cities in the south, when raising crabs in rice fields, what should they do if their fingers are pinched by crabs when transplanting rice?

Fang Xuanling immediately replied: "The method of raising crabs in rice fields is to plant rice seedlings first and then release the seedlings. You are raising crabs without planting rice seedlings. Are you planting rice seedlings in the stream with your eyes closed?" (Releasing the crabs first consumes more bait)

Then there is the matter of commercial taxes. Now that all the major merchants have paid their taxes, they have yet to work out a complete law.

It is definitely not possible to harvest twice a year. Now that the commercial economy is booming, how much workload would it take to harvest twice a year?

The Ministry of Revenue had too many accounts to settle and complained all day long, the Ministry of Works had too much work to do and was worked like an oxen, the Ministry of Rites was overwhelmed by the new books published by the Women's Farm and the strange academy system, and the Ministry of Personnel was always complaining about lack of staff and inability to transfer personnel.

The three ministries of Zhongshu, Menxia and Shangshu all seemed to have been infected by Master Li and worked loudly.

The only ones who could be happy were the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Justice.

Fang Xuanling glanced at Li Yin twice with accusatory eyes.

This Lord Li now actually wants these old guys to do some radio gymnastics!

"Sister, what is radio gymnastics like?" Li Shimin became interested when he heard this.

What kind of exercise can actually help you exercise?

It doesn't sound as difficult as the gymnastics and yoga practiced by the women in the harem. It's just right for the ministers in the court!

"Brother, there is a saying that if you build up a good body, you can continue to work for fifty years!"

Li Yin smiled secretly. He looked at the four old men and teased, "I think you are all in good health. If you exercise more, you can easily work for the Tang Dynasty until you are a hundred years old."

Li Shimin's eyes lit up, but before he could open his mouth to agree, Xiao Yu fell down.

"Yu Sheren, Yu Sheren!"

Wei Zheng immediately shouted: "You have to hold on!"

Xiao Yu fell into Wei Zheng's arms, rolling his eyes. He groaned and said, "Ouch, why is my head hurting more and more?"

"Leave it there, let me take a look!" Li Yin stepped forward to take the pulse.

"Sister-in-law, how are you?" Li Shimin's face was full of concern, so why did she faint while talking?

Li Yin glanced at Xiao Yu who was lying on the ground with his eyes closed. The old man was only sixty years old, with a broad and fat body. It was obvious that he lacked exercise.

"Brother, Yu Sheren stays up all night, doesn't sleep at night and doesn't get up in the morning. He loves to eat and drink and lacks exercise. His body can't stand climbing so suddenly."

Li Yin looked at Xiao Yu's slightly changed expression and continued, "You have to supervise their training in the future!"

"They also need to go to bed early and get up early to develop a good work and rest schedule."

Li Shimin lowered his head in thought.

When Xiao Yu heard this, he was shocked. He just wanted to get rid of the exercise, but how did he end up making things worse?

He slowly opened his eyes: "I'm fine, no need to exercise more."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Li Yin helped him up and teased, "Luckily, Yu Sheren just happened to fall on Zheng Sheren, otherwise he would have suffered a lot."

"..." Xiao Yu was so embarrassed that he was speechless.

"You don't need to say more." Li Shimin glanced at the hesitant eyes of his ministers and immediately came to a conclusion.

This is a good thing, we can't let them do whatever they want.

"Brother, the radio gymnastics movements are simple. There is something more popular and more interesting than radio gymnastics, called square dancing."

As Li Yin spoke, she couldn't help but become interested.

"Brothers, please move aside and let me show you some gymnastics first."

So they all dodged, and then Li Yin got into position, standing straight with her hands pressed against the crotch of her trousers.

"The first set of radio gymnastics, one, two, three, four, two, two, three, four..."

Li Yin shouted slogans and performed actions at the same time.

After the whole process, it was not very tiring. She said, "Brother, this set of gymnastics is suitable for both young and old. Duke Liang and his friends are too lacking in exercise. Why not start with something simple?"

"For example, before going to work, we have to gather together, line up neatly horizontally and vertically, and do exercises together!"

Li Yin smiled very happily, and Li Shimin's eyes were full of surprise.

Fang Xuanling and others were horrified. It would be better to kill them than to ask them to gather and do exercises before going to work every day!

"Sister, what is square dancing?"

"Brother, this square dance is even more amazing!" Li Yin said with a smile: "Square dance is much more interesting than radio gymnastics."

"When we get down the mountain, tell me to call the people from the village to dance for you together."

After a short rest, when everyone was not too tired, they continued walking.

The pig farm is located at the lower part of the mountainside. The terrain is not high and the road is not difficult to walk on, but it is far from the village.

"Brother, do you still remember that the farm crossbred a batch of piglets four months ago?"

Li Yin said: "Those sows gave birth to piglets."

"Are you raising this kid for meat?" Li Shi had rarely eaten pork and didn't think it tasted good.

"Yes!"

Li Yin said, and then said regretfully: "It's just that black pigs are not the most delicious pork after all, and they take a long time to grow."

"Brother, it would be great if we could get some fat white pigs from overseas."

"What's delicious about pigs?" Li Shimin asked.

"Pork smells very fishy, ​​can't we just eat mutton?" Xiao Yu had just lost face and now he started to sing a different tune.

“Only poor people eat pork.”

"Mr. Yu is wrong. There is no bad meat in the world, only people who don't know how to eat it."

Li Yin led a few people into the farm, and the unpleasant smell made them take a half step back.

"Besides, if we can find the right way to eat it, so that the people can eat meat without the smell of fishy smell, wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Li Yin walked into the pig farm, where the tenant farmers were about to castrate the piglets.

"Master, you are finally here!"

The tenant had never castrated a pig before, so he didn't know where to start!
