Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Li Ke naturally appreciated Li Jing's words.

"Hahaha, please rest assured, Dai Guogong, since I accepted them, to put it a bit exaggerated, if I, Li Ke, eat by mouthful, they will eat by mouthful." Li Ke said, patting his chest.

People in ancient times did not understand that talent is the greatest wealth.

Can't create value?Why is there no way to create value? When they come, Li Ke has a lot of things waiting for them to do, and when they finish, Li Ke will pay them wages, right?After the salary was paid and the salary was received, Li Ke did more research and research, developed a good product, and then earned back the salary in their hands, perfect!

With Li Ke like this, Li Jing was a little worried, mainly because Li Ke didn't seem like a reliable person.

However, both His Majesty and Li Ke are willing, and the current court is really unable to arrange, so this is the best choice.

"Then when will I let them gather at your place?" Li Jing hesitated for a while, and decided not to say more. His Royal Highness Shu Wang is a little younger, but this is indeed a good thing. , besides, His Royal Highness Shu Wang is somewhat capable of making money.

He has also heard a little about a mall, can he not hear about it?The housekeeper even took away a lot of copper coins from his house in a cart, and the money was all bought by Li Ke.

"If it's possible, I can come tomorrow." Li Ke thought for a while, and he had to start arranging some things, so it's better to let them start tomorrow.

"Okay!" Li Jing was straightforward, but after hesitating for a moment, Li Jing said again: "Your Highness, some of them lack arms and legs. If your Highness can't arrange for them, you might as well give them back to me. After all, His Highness arranged most of the arrangements, and we can also take care of the rest."

"Don't worry, let them come, as many as you want." Li Ke waved his hand. He needs a lot of people for his next work, 5000 people are drizzle.

In modern times, 5000 people may be a lot, but in ancient times, in this human-based industry, 5000 people were not many at all.

Moreover, what Li Ke is doing is still a monopoly industry.

After discussing with Li Jing, Li Jing also offered to leave. Li Ke didn't ask to stay, and there was no need to make any relationship. Those like Li Jing are all good people, and they will never get too close to any prince. These generals are almost none of them. .

That is, Hou Junji followed Li Chengqian, and was killed by Li Shimin directly because of treason.It can be regarded as one of the few sieges that followed Li Shimin to be killed.

Even Changsun Wuji knew how to avoid suspicion, and Changsun Wuji had resigned from office, but he came back only after Li Shimin repeatedly asked.

Li Jing left, Li Ke thought about it, and directly recruited Tian Meng.

"Your Highness."

"Is there enough food in the village?" Li Ke asked.

"How many people does His Highness need to eat?" Tian Meng didn't say much, but asked instead.

"Tomorrow, [-] elite soldiers from the Tang Dynasty will come over. They must eat more than ordinary people, so prepare them in advance." Li Ke nodded.

"Our standing food is enough for 5000 people, so we don't need to use the food reserves." Tian Meng nodded.

"Continue to buy food. The number of people we will be responsible for next is not just 1 people. There are quite a lot of refugees and beggars." Li Ke shook his head and said, Tian Meng still made a simple report to Li Ke yesterday. When An Ning popularized underwear for Changle and the others.

Li Ke did not expect that there are nearly a thousand beggars in Chang'an City. These are beggars, that is, children under the age of 12. If all beggars are counted, the number is about 2000 , and adding refugees, the number soared to nearly 3000 people.

And this number is still increasing by tens of dozens every day.

An extra 1 refugees in Chang'an, a city with a population of one million, may not seem like much, but the security problems brought about by these refugees are actually very serious.

They can only take risks if they don’t have enough to eat, and those who can come to Chang’an City will know some people more or less. After a long time, if they don’t handle it well, it will stir up civil uprisings, and the living environment of the refugees is not good, so they often gather in piles , once a person is found dead and is not dealt with in time, it is easy to breed plague.

The plague of this era is not so easy to deal with.

Therefore, refugees have always been the most troublesome problem in Wannian and Chang'an counties.

Think about it, there are many things in a modern city with a population of one million, let alone ancient times?

"Yes, don't worry, Your Highness. The Tang Dynasty has had good harvests year after year, so the price of grain is stable. It is not difficult to buy food. As early as ten days ago, when Your Highness and His Majesty negotiated this matter, I had already ordered Yuelai Trading Company Various grain-producing areas have started to purchase and transport grain to Chang'an." Tian Meng said respectfully.

"Well, let the commercial firms in the grasslands and the Western Regions pay more attention, and buy more sheep and rush to Chang'an without affecting the situation of these two places." Li Ke confessed.

"Yes!"

It has to be said that Yuelai Commercial Bank, which was unintentionally organized at the beginning, helped Li Ke too much and saved him too much time.

"By the way, how did the blacksmiths and masons convene?" Li Ke asked again.

"It's all been summoned."

"You take this." Li Ke took out a map from his arms and handed it to Tian Meng.

This is a map of the distribution of mineral resources in Shaanxi Province in later generations. In fact, Shaanxi is a province rich in resources, and many resources have not been discovered in this era.

For example, in Xianyang, 150 kilometers away from Chang'an, there are coal mines with reserves as high as 55 billion tons. Even if the technology of this era cannot mine all of them, it is enough to mine only the surface part.

It is also like iron mines, copper mines, etc. in the vicinity of Chang'an.

It's just that the detection technology in this era is underdeveloped, but for future generations, these mineral resource distribution maps are firmly placed in the warehouse of the national strategic reserve, including all mined and unmined.

Tian Meng took it, and when he opened the map, he was in a daze.

There are also maps in this era, but compared with modern professional maps...they are thousands of miles away!

"This is Your Highness?" Tian Meng was dumbfounded.

Fortunately, the administrative units on the mineral distribution map are not as dense as ordinary maps, but it is enough to explain many problems.

Fortunately, although some nouns are different, as a province with a very strong cultural heritage, many place names in Shaanxi Province in later generations are actually the same as in ancient times.

"These characters are simplified characters that I researched, mainly for the purpose of keeping information secret. This map is absolutely confidential. You just need to know it yourself. There are mineral labels on it, so don't let it out." Li Ke confessed.

Tian Meng's absolute loyal minister, he probably is the type of fanatic of Li Ke, he basically believes what Li Ke says.

"I understand, Your Highness." Tian Meng took a deep breath.

"I will keep this picture in my heart and compare it with the terrain near Chang'an."

"Well, there are two main purposes. The first is to find a large iron mine. We will start making iron and steel next. The second is to find this limestone mine. These are the two most important minerals. Of course, copper mines and the like , if it is easy to mine, buy them all." Li Ke explained.

"Yes!"
