Datang: I was exposed by Princess Changle

"Oh, right."

"This Cui Hao, was the one who fought with Shi Qu at the beginning, and then offered to help Shi Qu cultivate the land?"

Li Shimin asked casually.

"Yes." Lin Xuan replied lightly.

Holding the thermos in his hand, Li Shimin took a sip of hot tea from time to time.

This thermos is made of simple pure iron.

The thermal insulation performance is so-so, and it can be used to warm hands.

"This kid is very good." Li Shimin praised sincerely.

Hearing this, Lin Xuan laughed immediately.

Cui Hao studied agriculture, and his grades are better than Shi Qu's.

Shi Qu is better than Cui Hao in cultivating crops.

It is good at recording data and analyzing reports.

But in terms of hands-on ability, Cui Hao, who was born in a farming family, is still better.

Li Shimin placed high hopes on Cui Hao, and it seemed that Cui Hao would definitely achieve great things in the future.

Praising his students, isn't that the same as praising him?

Lin Xuan thought secretly.

"In the last war with the Turks, there were a lot of problems in transporting supplies."

"The road was blocked by heavy snow, and the speed of the horses and cattle was extremely slow. Moreover, countless injuries were caused."

"It's a good way to go by water..."

"What Cui Hao said just now made me suddenly realize."

"If I can excavate the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal with manpower, dig out rivers and rivers, and connect all places in a line, then water transportation can play its role!"

Speaking of this, Li Shimin's face flushed with excitement.

Originally, the Lingqu Canal in the Qin Dynasty was dug to deal with Lingnan Baiyue, and was later used for transportation.

Well now, Li Shimin is playing bigger!

Not only did he need to connect the northeast to Zhuojun, the southeast to Yuhang, and open up four sections of the Yongji Canal, Tongji Canal, Hangou, and Jiangnan River, but he also had to dig out waterways throughout the Tang Dynasty.

The project is more than several times huge!

Later Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty excavated the Grand Canal in order to open up the economy of the north and the south, and also to maintain the ruling order in various parts of the south of the Yangtze River.

The result was that the people complained and were eventually replaced by Li Tang.

The excavation of the Lingqu Canal and the construction of the Xiangli Second River can still be barely completed by Datang.

Now Li Shimin wants to open up the waterways of the entire Tang Dynasty? !

Isn't this whimsical?

Not to mention modern times, even if it is put into later generations, it will definitely be a huge project!

"Your Majesty, have you considered how huge a project this is?" Lin Xuan asked speechlessly.

Lin Xuan decided to give Li Shimin a good math class!

"Hey! Although it is huge, I believe that the people of Tang Dynasty can definitely do it!"

Seeing Li Shimin's serious and confident appearance, Lin Xuan was powerless to complain.

"No matter how big the project is, there are so many sons in my Tang Dynasty, are you afraid that it won't work?"

"It's just that it can't be done in this life, and there are sons and grandsons... Passed down from generation to generation, it will be dug out!"

Changsun Wuji also followed behind to join in the fun.

Do you think you are Yugong Yishan?

Nima!

Generation after generation?

Why don't you go to heaven? !

The truth is that.

But as far as the current level of productivity in the Tang Dynasty is concerned, it is almost impossible to do so.

In that case, it will have an impact on the ecological environment of the entire territory of Datang.

It can even lead to soil erosion and flooding!

"Your Majesty, this must be done."

"However, there is no need to connect all parts of the country."

"The amount of this project is too huge, and it will waste people's money!"

"The best way is to transport by land and water."

Lin Xuan persuaded lightly.

"Do you have to rely on Chi Dao?"

Li Shimin couldn't help asking.

Building Chidao is also very labor-intensive, and it cannot be repaired just by talking about it.

Lin Xuan had no choice but to bow and say, "I designed a road that is faster than Chidao!"

"No fear of rain and snow, no mud!"

"The carriage can run fast on it without bumps, and the speed will be faster and safer than the road!"

No way, let's build the highway honestly!

Lin Xuan's method is also very laborious and costly, but he has a way to reduce this effect.
