Chapter 361 (1/2)

Hanjia granary is the first granary of the Tang Dynasty. How much grain can be stored is an amazing number in the last generation. In this era, it is also an important guarantee for opening granaries to release grain during the famine period in Guanzhong area. The storage of a Hanjia warehouse is equal to half of the storage of the whole Tang Dynasty. Therefore, we can imagine the importance of this granary to the Tang Dynasty!

I'm afraid there are not many people who dare to make it, and they want to take the Royal granary to fill their own pockets. If it is found, this crime may not be affordable to anyone.

But when it comes to Hanjia granary, we have to mention its predecessor back to luocang. In the Sui Dynasty, the granary was built outside Luoyang City. At the end of Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos. Li mi seized the opportunity to take back luocang and put Luoyang City into a situation of no grain.

However, Li Mi, who was holding grain and grass, had a great increase in morale. What made the rulers of the Sui Dynasty even more afraid that food was not only the key to food and clothing, but also became the capital for the Wagang army to attract the hearts of the people. A large number of hungry people and food deficient rebel troops rushed to the Wagang army, which made the Wagang army famous and powerful for a time.

Although the Wagang army's uprising failed because of various factors, Li Mi's successful strategy of seizing grain and grass has become a lesson learned by another person with a heart. This man is the emperor's grandfather Li Shimin.

Li Shimin saw the disadvantages of granary outside the city, so he decided to build a granary in Luoyang City, so as not to follow the stupid decision of building granaries outside the city in the Sui Dynasty.

Therefore, the granary, which was carefully designed by Li Shimin, was built in Luoyang. Hanjiacang not only supplies the grain in Luoyang City, but also acts as a grain transfer station between Guandong and Guanzhong.

With the expansion of Hanjia granary and the increase of its reserves, huiluo granary continued to be used for grain storage, and its function became smaller and smaller. Today, it can even be said that it has become the chicken ribs granary of the Tang Dynasty.

Then, since they were not taken seriously by the imperial court, they would naturally leave opportunities for those who want to take advantage of them. Li Hong believes that the most likely one among the three big warehouses is back to luocang.

Li Sujie looked at Li Hong playfully. The empty teacup was held in his hand and wandered around. He thought and asked, ”why can't it be Li Yangcang? Back to luocang is outside the city, which is easy to be used by people with intentions to speculate and enrich their own pockets. But Li Yangcang is farther away from Luoyang, isn't it more suitable for them to sell secretly? ”

”Liyangcang is too risky. Today's risk is even greater than that of hanjiacang. Liaodong is still in the war. If they dare to sell liyangcang's grain privately, they can be beheaded directly without guilt. After collecting grain, liyangcang always takes Yongji canal or the Yellow River and then transports them to Luoyang, or to the northeast, and continues to transport water to Youzhou to supply the soldiers in Liaodong front. When there is no war, the granary there is like Hanjia granary, which needs to ensure enough food for 80000 people for a year, so the possibility is very small, but it is not impossible. ” Li Hong said after deliberation.

”What now?” Li Sujie felt that Li Hong's analysis made him so clear. He was no longer like a blind man at the beginning. He was worried about hanjiacang, liyangcang, or going back to luocang.

”I don't know.” Li Hong looked at Li Sujie and said simply.

”I don't know? The third and I have given you so many clues. You tell me you don't know? ” Li Sujie put down his teacup and asked with wide eyes.

”Where is Li Shangjin? Yizhou! That's Jiannan road! Where is Li Yangcang? It's still in Daowei Prefecture of Henan Province. There's a capital city road in the middle, so it's definitely not Li Yangcang, is it? ” Li Hong from Li Sujie's study for a long time, turned out an old map, looked at it and said.

”Yes, what's the matter?”

”Then hanjiacang has problems with luocang, so we can only wait until the third one has made progress

”Are you so sure that Li Yangcang is OK?” Li Sujie was deeply suspicious.

Li Hong looked at Li Sujie, who did not agree with him. He held out a finger and pointed to the top of his finger. He said, ”the regret of my father's life is that he has not fought personally. It's not a day or two to imitate the emperor's grandfather's dream of galloping on the battlefield. A few days ago, I refused to send troops to the west to restore the country for belus. Now listen to the empress mother said, this period of time, stand in Liaodong map there in a daze, I guess this is again thinking about planning to fight Liaodong after the spring, you say, since the father and Emperor are concerned about Liaodong war, how dare Li Yangcang make mistakes? If the emperor's father drove his own expedition, the Liyang warehouse would not be full of grain waiting for his father? Moreover, I'm afraid that someone has already spread the story that his father is staring at the map of Liaodong. 80% of this liyangcang is no problem. ”
