Chapter 694 (1/2)

What Li Zhi and Wu Mei dislike most is that Li Hong betrays the truth in front of them. Especially Li Hong's mysterious expression makes them want to beat him.

Moreover, every time they face Li Hong's expression, the couple always feel that they are like two idiots in front of Li Hong, and they are led by the nose by this bunny.

So when Li Hong began to betray the truth again, he got the cordial words of ”get out of here.”

”Well, the son minister is wrong.” Li Hong laughed awkwardly, then approached his desk and said to Li Zhi, ”father, now that I am rich and healthy in the Tang Dynasty, I am strong in the army, but do you have anything to worry about? Or is it the most worrying thing? ”

Li Zhi listened to Li Hong's words seriously, and then nodded his head earnestly: ”yes.”

”What is it?” Someone didn't expect father long to answer the question immediately.

”You.” Li Zhi watched Li Hong spit out a word of you.

”I You have no interest in this way. Father and emperor, what's wrong with your son's ministers in the past two years? Etiquette, ancestral system and so on, which one of the children has exceeded? As the crown prince, I think it's the most praised thing for so many years Li Hong didn't expect that long dad still played a cold humor, and even started to brush himself.

”Don't talk nonsense. Tell me what it is.” Wu Mei looks at Li Hong's mysterious appearance. She really can't think of anything that can make Li Hong rise to the height of benefiting the country and the people, so she also has some urgent urge.

Hearing the urging of Long Ma, someone dare not continue to sell his son any more. He has to solemnly say, ”today, my country seems to be rich and the people are strong, and it is a time of peace and prosperity, but In Guanzhong, Henan, Hebei and other places, we need to rely on the grain transported by water from the south of the Yangtze River every year to ensure that the people in the Central Plains will not suffer from famine. In this case, the Tang Dynasty is far from being able to solve the real problem of food and clothing for the people, right? ”

Seeing that the beginning of his long speech didn't cause the couple to talk to each other, someone had to shake his head and continue to talk to himself: ”the food and clothing of the central plains all need the food supply from the south of the Yangtze River to make up for the food and clothing of the people in the south of the Yangtze River, not to mention the common people in the two prefectures of Anbei and Anton. In the cold winter, the herdsmen often rob the grain stored by the farming people It happened, but the crime didn't die. Every time, it was caught and reprimanded, and then the court continued to provide food, right? ”

”What do you want to say?” Wu Meiru Yu's forehead and white cheek make the whole person look very soft under the light, but what she says is not soft at all.

”Hey, my son is trying to say In three years, at most in five years, can we solve the food problems mentioned by the children's ministers and the two major prefectures, and ensure that they can achieve self-sufficiency Li Hong once again betrayed the truth.

But this time, Li Zhi and Wu Mei didn't ignore him like they did just now. Instead, they quickly asked, ”is this really true?”

”Li Hong, you should know that you are not joking Li Zhi is holding a brush tightly in his hand, which shows how excited he and Wu Mei are because of Li Hong's words.

However, as Li Hong said, whether it is Guanzhong, Guannei, Hedong, Hebei or the two major prefectures, let alone catch up with a big disaster year, it is just a small storm, rain and drought. The imperial court often has a headache and food headache.

Although there has always been a saying that the south of the Yangtze River is well-known in the world, it is still an extremely difficult thing for the imperial court to make sure that the people of the whole North will never be in the year of famine. The scene of selling children and selling women and starving to death on the streets is a very difficult thing for the court.

After all, both the court and the officials and the common people all know that how much grain is planted in the field and how much grain can be collected back to the belly is dead.

Even in a good year, the common people need to live frugally for a year, not to mention the rapid growth of population in the Tang Dynasty, and from time to time, 11-12-year-old children are admitted to the palace. No matter what, it shows that the food of the Tang Dynasty is still insufficient for the common people.

In the year of famine and locust plague, the common people and the high-ranking officials of the emperor are all sad, thinking of offering sacrifices to heaven and worshipping gods every day, hoping that God can pity the Tang Dynasty and give the people wealth.

But everyone knows that this kind of sacrifice to heaven and God has never been of any use. It is just a kind of psychological comfort, and it is just a performance show for people to see emperors and ministers love their people like sons.

So when the couple heard Li Hongxin's promise that they could completely solve the problem of food and clothing for the common people in the world in three or five years, it was hard for them to think about it or not.

Just now, after the excitement of Li Hong's words, Li Zhi and Wu Mei began to think calmly. How could it be? How could that be possible?

How much grain is produced in the field will not change much. Although there are differences between the wind and rain and natural and man-made disasters, there is no difference at all. Why does Li Hong think that he has the ability to make the people really eat? He knows magic?
