I am engaged in construction in Datang

"Brother, I need your help with something."

It was getting dark, and Li Yin asked the farmer to make a small bowl of noodles with scallion oil.

The round noodles are hand-pulled by the tenants. Li Yin likes this kind of noodles, which are chewy, refreshing and non-sticky. Paired with freshly cut cucumber shreds, special hot and sour beans and fried beans, it leaves a lingering fragrance in your mouth and you can't stop eating.

Eating noodles at night can easily cause indigestion, so the noodles have to be made in small bowls. It is not enough to eat only salty food. Li Shimin's family already had a genetic cardiovascular disease, so they cooked some Polygonum multiflorum and jujube porridge to nourish their health.

"Brother, do you know that Wang Youfu is blessed?"

Li Yin looked at the other person's bewildered expression and continued, "She is the wife of Minister Sun Fujia."

Li Shimin now understood: "Is it the lady who looks so blessed? I saw her at the banquet."

Mr. Sun's wife is too dazzling.

"That lady Wang Youfu has a unique vision. She bought a piece of land in the suburbs of Beijing and wants to build a residential community like Cuizhu Garden."

"This woman is so bold." Li Shimin grinned. He knew the investment plan of Cuizhu Garden. Even the manor was only dared to be built phase by phase, which showed how much money it would cost.

"My sister-in-law wants... Your Majesty to issue an edict, allowing Wang Youfu to transform the land!" After Li Shimin said this, his teeth itched a little. This was too difficult to understand.

"It is also!"

Li Yin smiled and said, "There's no rush for this, we just have to wait."

"Mrs. Youfu is smart. She spent 10,500 strings of cash to buy one of the most eye-catching advertising spots at the sports meet."

"I think he will come to see me in some time."

"How many?!"

Li Shimin choked on his tea: "Ten thousand strings of cash!"

His Tang Dynasty's tax revenue last year was only 30 million strings of cash.

Li Yin nodded: "This is the East seat. The Cui family of the South seat spent 12,000 strings of cash."

She guessed Wang Youfu's purpose, but what about Cui?

There are two remaining families. What do they want from her?

Those who fall behind will be beaten, and Li Yin is quite happy to see everyone being so positive and motivated.

It's much better than the guy who closes his eyes, tilts his head, and yells at her as if he is bored.

If a noble family can divide into several factions to follow different heroes, and if they really fall out with Li Yin, it must be that a group of members have already retired to the mountains and forests to keep the incense.

The rest of the people are all suicide squads in plain sight.

If you win the bet, everyone is happy; if you lose, you can start over again after a hundred years.

"Brother, how are the sales of glass jewelry and perfume?" Li Yin is most concerned about money. In the early spring of next year, compulsory education will be tried out at the Turkic garrison in Hebei Province.

The school has already started construction. The official document was issued in March, with a half-year buffer (persuasion) period and compulsory enforcement starting in September.

By then, there will not only be descendants of the Turks, but also more Tang Dynasty children.

Li Yin estimated that the number would not be less than 50,000.

Assuming that each primary school has 1000 students, at least primary schools need to be established, and each school needs to be staffed with a teaching team of people, who have to teach different subjects.

Teachers have to teach a whole day every day, so they should... be able to hold on, right?

"Each set of colored glaze jewelry has been sold at a high price of more than 2,000 guan, and the prices of the fine products are even higher. I have limited the quantity, and I believe that when they are sold in Persia and other places, their value will increase several times."

Li Shimin was radiant: "Perfume is a little less valuable, only about 300 strings of cash per bottle, but it is a consumable item, if you calculate carefully, you can earn more than jewelry."

The treasury is now extremely rich, and what is more worth mentioning is that the Ministry of Revenue finally stops thinking about his money.

"Brother, the business tax needs to be changed."

Li Yin reminded: "It is better to introduce more perfect tax laws, and the labor law should also be accelerated. Next year, more people will come to Beijing to work, and we must protect the most basic interests of the people."

"besides……"

She paused and said, "The young lady's marriage age can be postponed for two years."

The economy is developing rapidly and the Tang Dynasty is at peace. There is no need to forcibly increase the population for war, so the nominal age of 13 can be raised.

Next year or the year after, when things get better, she'll move up...

Empress Changsun's eyes lit up and she turned to look at Li Shimin.

Her sister told her that it was not a good idea for young girls to give birth too early. How could they have a baby safely when their bodies are not fully developed?

"Brother, wait until the ladies have recovered and then have another baby. The survival rate of both the mother and the baby will be higher."

Li Shimin hesitated: "It's just that... our dynasty's population is really too small. Besides, if I keep my wife for too long, my family may not be willing to support her."

It is indeed small, and the registered population is even less than that of the Qin Dynasty.

"There will be more work in the Tang Dynasty in the future, and we must encourage women to go out to work."

Li Yin said: "This way, the family won't have to worry about the young lady becoming a burden."

"It just so happens that my sister-in-law is planning to build a weaving factory. If there is a way to unite the wives and daughters of the ministers in the court and ask them to weave together, wouldn't it be a role model for the world?"

Sweat broke out on Empress Chang Sun's forehead. No, why does this factory feel like it's getting bigger and bigger?

"There is a way... My sister-in-law knows a concubine in the palace and has a very good relationship with her."

As she spoke, the corners of her mouth twitched twice: "Sister-in-law will discuss it with her first, and then ask her to mention it to Her Royal Highness the Queen. Hmm... maybe it will be resolved."

"..." Li Yin was speechless. It was really difficult for Li Er and his wife.

She laughed twice and held Empress Changsun's hands tightly: "Then I'll leave this matter to you, sister-in-law. The happiness of the young ladies depends on you."

Empress Changsun felt dizzy.

How, why did it become like this?

Yeah!

She just wanted to secretly weave cloth with her concubines and save money on cloth for the palace!

Now, they were weaving together with the wives and daughters of all the ministers, openly, no, it should be said that they were weaving openly.

Li Shimin was breathing rapidly, neither happy nor angry.

It’s just an indescribable feeling, like... the sky is falling?

Then he also began to feel dizzy.

Today the two of them stayed at the farm. Li Shimin tossed and turned. He turned his head to look at his queen.

I thought with some grievance that Guanyinbi has changed.

He is no longer the first in the other person's heart.

"Erlang, why are you looking at me?" Empress Changsun opened her eyes and spoke helplessly. She didn't want to pay attention to him.

"Guanyin Maid..."

Li Shimin hesitated: "Will you be like Director Lu and focus on weaving in the harem?"

"Since we have done it, we must do our best."

"Besides, this can also set an example for the world and encourage young ladies to contribute to the development of the Tang Dynasty. It's a good thing."

"No, what I mean is, from now on, which one should you focus on first, my affairs or the affairs of the harem factory?" Somehow, his little heart kept beating fast.

Look at Lu Liangxi. She used to sew clothes for Lao Sun, but now it is Lao Sun who takes time to sew clothes for her.

This time is all taken up by the factory!

"What nonsense!"

Empress Changsun had no choice but to comfort her: "Of course I will come after you."
